PETER!!!!!!
evil and intimidating horse.... really proud of how this turned out actually. did edit him a lil bit soooo yeah :3
Backstory!!!!
Peter, a 28-year-old man, was your average guy. Really passionate about his hobbies, which were mainly racing and mazes. He didn't care much for talent, only his love of the game. Never pursued 'love' or anything of the sort. The guy was fond of horses, too.
But... Then he was.. Murdered. By who? Mmmost likely Hellen.
When he... 'Woke back up' per se, it was the first day of the visitor. In apartment 18. He had no legs- they were replaced by vines. It had claws now. A large, x-shaord deep wound in it's chest from where it died. Everything felt painful. It felt hungry. Cold. Scared. Hungry. It felt HUNGRY.
Crawling out the room, claws grabbing at the ground desperately, pulling it toward any door. The nearest one. It had to find food.
A host.
It got out of the apartment, into the hall. The ever-changing halls. It smelled of rats. Blood. FOOD.
It just needed to find a suitable host... Yeah. Then everything will stop HURTING.
Once a suitable host was found, a giant rat (YES the horse was a rat at one point)... It was just brutal. The rat was killed... Roots and vines buried deep under it's flesh, controlling it's muscles, sapping nutrients. It was an imperfect host, though... It could use a little fixing.
Hhuh.... Hm... Hh... Hhorses... Yeah. Horses, those things! The nimble strong things!
Fast = prey can be caught easily, and escape from danger becomes easy too!
...The Gourd Parasite changed the rat beyond recognition- in just under a DAY. Some fucked up, demented recreation of what it thought a horse looked like. Close enough, but... More carnivorous to suit it's diet.
It... It can't stay out in the halls for long though. There's something OUT here bigger than it. It has to hide... Hide hide hide hidehidehidehide... It instinctually goes back to apartment 18... To wait out the danger.
And once the danger was gone?
Now, it's their time to shine.
...why tf did i just write a whole ass fanfic for the backstory. idk what possessed me.
ALL of their humanity is gone. btw
Dialogue
(Running away once combat is initiated) "cCOWARDd..."
(Spared) * It stands there, confused as to why you didn't immediately kill it.
"... ... ... "
* It assumes an aggressive stance.
(option appears to kill them or keep them alive.)
(Kill option.) * ..It crumples to the floor.
(Spare option.) * It seems to sigh in defeat, using it's scythe to keep it standing.
(Another option appears, one to give it food. Giving it food will recruit it. IT'S THAT EASY BRO)
(Giving it food) * ...It perks up at the offer of food.
* ..A head tilt...
* Its tail begins to wag a bit as you hand it the food. Quickly, it snags whatever it was out of your hand, eating it faster than you could even blink.
* After it's done eating... It extends a clawed hand to you, offering to join.
(Yes/no options appear.)
(Yes) * It looks happy! Gourd Parasite has joined the party!
(No) * It looks.. A little sad. But it saunters off anyways. Gourd Parasite now roams freely around Floor 1.
