K. So, I wanted to make a monstah, something like the one at the end of Hellboy. Throw in some telepathy and size it down a bit, and we get this. I tossed the idea at Root and he said to app it. So here I am.
The race in question:
-Swallows humanoids whole and slowly digests them over a period of a week or so.
-Has an inner mouth that can extend to grab food and pull it in. Similar to a barnacle.
-Has acidic digestive juices that can be spewed at an enemy when in danger. The acid itself would feel like salted lemon juice on a bleeding wound. First degree burns on contact.
-Tentacles, tendrils, and feelers. Tentacles, about the width of your upper leg, and a bit bigger, are used for movement and bashing. Tendrils are smaller, a bit thinner then your arm, and are used for grabbing, choking, gesturing, and providing contact for mental exchanges. Feelers are similar to what the Flood infection forms have. On the ends of certain tendrils and tentacles, there are clusters of nerve receptors. These are used to see, smell, and hear, all combined into a single sense.
-Breeding. I'm not friggen makin' this thing to cyber with it. They breed once every hundred years, and live to be about 300. They plant the offspring in a female humanoid until it bursts from her stomach. Yeah. Go watch Alien. Imagine that only..bigger...
-Telepathy. Can communicate through thought to everyone around it, or to a specific person. Knowledge and memories can only be transferred through physical contact, referred to as a mental exchange. Can slightly influence people by implanting simple thoughts in their minds, disguised as their own. This can easily be ignored. More-so if they know the creature is causing it.
-Slight regenerative ability of limbs when sliced off. Takes a few days to fully regrow. Healing of main body takes longer. If killed, cannot regenerate.

I like the idea, and the creature's motives.
But my ability to judge on acception on these sorts of things gives me an obligation to not give an accept or deny.

Oh my god. Atleast make an information post about the race/create before you make a character for it. Otherwise you're just free to make random shit up. Grah.

Just this makes me want to deny it.
You want to deny it just because it doesn't have a name? Geez. I -WAS- gonna have someone name it ICly, but WHATEVER.

Not because it doesn't have a name - because it doesn't officially exist. Atleast make a fucking informational post about the race, and put <TO BE DISCOVERED ICLY>.

-Skih arrived at Surna because it was born here. Its 'mother' carried it here when it sploded out of her.
-It's here because it was born here.

I do. I've debated it with both Gambit and OA before about not just randomly making up custom races for a single character, and to make info pages.

What about those panthers that can shoot fire and talk? Are those an official race? What about dragoons? Do they have a page?

We have panthers that do that now..? Oh god.
And I thought dragoons were part of the Dragonborn post. I'm only one man doing all of this. So give me a break.

Omnibreeds? I'm pretty sure they're official. Something about shapeshifting.
Dragoons don't. Agito made me rage.

Dragoons -are- official, whoever's in charge of updating race lore just forgot to update the page. (or was misinformed.)

Dragoon aren't official, and they never were. Ever. They were made up without an application or any page of the sort, I know for a fact. I created the Dragonborn and I know I never included 'Dragoons' in with them, because I actually know what the hell a dragoon is.
A dragoon is a person hunts dragons, they usually use spears, and the like. But, onto Skiuhwhateverthefuck.
