The Unconventional Zoo of Little Nightmares
Little nightmares is a series of the cute, bizarre, and terrible. But moreover it thinks outside the box. So if I am thinking of animals, I should do the same.
(Disclaimer, I have nothing against these these species. Most of these descriptions are symbolic.)
Six is a Perentie/Goanna Monitor Lizard: Cold-Blooded, Cunning, highly unpredictable, ravenous, and exceedingly brutal hunters. They start out small, frail, and inconspicuous but given the chance, they will grow into something deadly. They can be bonded with, however, they’re empathy is difficult to reach.
Mono is a Honey Badger: Bold, single-minded determination, stubborn, faithful, and as brave as they come. Will stand up to even the most terrifying of opponents when their partners are in need.
Runaway Kid/Seven is a Spotted Genet: Clever, nimble, cute, timid, and unapologetically sweet. A pure cinnamon roll that doesn’t get the love it deserves.
The girl in the Raincoat/Veronica is a Meerkat: A smart, kind, resourceful, and capable survivor. But when alone and rejected, they’re without hope.
The Children of the Maw: (in order from left to right)
Refugee Kid/One is a Brown Hyena: A loner whose a lot braver than it looks.
Long-Haired Girl/Two is a Red Fox: Smart and reliable, looked to as an example.
Green Boy/Five is a Fennec Fox: It’s just a little pup.
Hunchback Girl/Three is an Argentine Tegu: Big, round, and beautiful.
Lollipop Boy is a Bear cub: They maybe fearful, but they’re only the one to beat back Bullies with one steady hand.
Bleeding/Pigtailed Girl is a Lab Rabbit: A determined survivor who doesn’t give up despite their ailing body.
Blanket/Ghost Child is a Flapjack Octopus: This was purely for aesthetics.
The Toddler is a Burrowing Owlet: A little bird not quite ready to fly, waiting in their nest to grow.
The Lady is a Red-Crowned Crane: A vain creature of high standards, her elegance and grace makes her stand out from the lower beasts. But with this beauty and power is tempered with fragility.
The Janitor/Roger is a blind Orangutan: Calm, creative, and distant. They likes to keep his world at arms length.
The Twin Chefs are hippos: From a distance, they seem doughy, cumbersome, and one foolish soul might say goofy. But they are far more temperamental and dangerous than they came imagine… and they will outrun you!
The Guests are Elephant Seal: The mental image speaks for itself.
The Granny is a Snapping Turtle: Impossibly old, lurking the deepest darkest depths. Patient and bitter, unwilling to let go.
The Hunter is an American Alligator: A nocturnal, swamp living, territorial, persistent, bear-trap predator with an itchy trigger.
The Teacher is a barn owl: Strict, uptight, and silent rage. No vermin escapes her piercing gaze, hearing their shrill means certain doom.
The Doctor is an upside down sloth bear: Huffing, puffing, seemingly gullible, but don’t be fooled. They are anything but comical.
The Viewers are Moths/Bugs to an open flame: Blind to their own demise.
The Patients are Taxidermies: Once they’re real living beings, now their fake replicas of skin, stuffing, and plastic.
The Bullies are Monkeys, Kea Parrots, Cats, and Tasmanian Devils: Wild, playful, destructive, noisy, conniving, and cruel little beasts. They’ll take any opportunity to cause and mayhem when no one’s their to stop them.
Thin Man is a Maned Wolf: Not a real wolf, not even a fox. One of a kind, but is so easily forgotten.
The Pretender is a Cockatoo: Loud, boisterous, playful, pretty, vain, and incredibly proud. But secretly just as much destructive, irritable, and potentially cruel as the Bullies.
The Craftsman is a Gibbon: Nothing really to saw here, another long armed ape but not as cool as the Orangutan.
The Butler is a Marabou stork: Silent and proper, carrying themselves with subdued pride. But their is anything but gracious to anyone but their mistress.
The Ferryman is a Wandering Albatross: A enigma at best, and haunting presence at worst. But in some ways could a blessing over a curse.
The North Wind is an Argentavis: A malevolent force, older than any other. Preying upon the weaker, with such power the “weak” are ill defined.
Mirror Monster is a Giant Squid: A faceless monster from the void.
The Nomes are House Geckos: Small, cute, completely helpless, and overall insignificant who while thriving will never the power to ever go beyond the shadows.
