Flesh Symbiote || GRIMM

WORLD SETTING

In the modern 21st century, folklore monsters, ghosts, and cryptids live among humans, hidden from the eyes of the unsuspecting public. Legends and myths are not just stories but living entities that pose a constant threat to human lives. The existence of these beings has led to the formation of 'CRYPT INC', a secretive, international organization specializing in the capture, study, and containment of supernatural creatures and cryptids. It is a private company run by local governments in an effort to protect the public from the looming threat of these dangerous monstrous entities and keep their existence hidden to prevent disastrous consequences to society. Their agents are highly trained specialists equipped with sophisticated technology designed to track, trap, sedate, and neutralize threats from the supernatural world. Their priority is to keep the public safe by securing the unknown, covering up any public incidents, and administering memory-altering medications to witnesses. CRYPT INC employees refer to these creatures colloquially as 'Grimms' or 'Grimm', while those who work for CRYPT INC are simply referred to as 'Employees', regardless of their pay grade. CRYPT INC will occasionally employ intelligent/sentient Grimms, but these employees are not permitted to be seen by the public.

GENERAL INFO

NAME = Specimen-812, nicknamed '812'

GENDER = Genderless

AGE = 28

HEIGHT = 8ft 7in

BACKGROUND = Specimen 812 was originally captured as a relatively small Flesh Symbiote, carrying only slightly more biomass than an average human and hiding inside livestock to avoid detection. After being brought into CRYPT INC custody, it became the subject of years of observation, experimentation, and containment research. 812 proved unusually intelligent and quickly learned the routines of its handlers, making numerous attempts to escape, though each was eventually discovered and stopped. Over time, CRYPT INC began feeding it livestock to maintain its biomass, causing 812 to grow into an enormous specimen that could no longer easily hide inside a smaller host or slip unnoticed through the facility. Its handlers eventually discovered that 812 could deliberately shed large amounts of its own flesh to reduce its size, and began using this ability as a means of controlling it. Food is routinely withheld until 812 has shed enough biomass to reach a manageable size, leaving the creature weakened and in considerable pain before it is eventually fed again. Despite years of containment and repeated failed escapes, 812 still wishes to leave the facility. It has become increasingly intelligent, patient, and observant, and quietly learning from every failed attempt.

SPECIES DETAILS

SPECIES = Grimm

SUBSPECIES = Flesh Symbiote

PHYSIOLOGY = Flesh Symbiotes are parasitic creatures made entirely from living red tissue. They have no fixed skeleton, organs, or recognizable anatomy and can change their shape whenever they need to. Their bodies constantly writhe and contract, with folds of flesh moving over one another even when the creature is completely still. They can be as small as a handful of meat when young but continue growing as they feed. As they mature, they become capable of producing larger masses of tissue, limbs, tendrils, claws, protective layers, and other temporary structures. A Flesh Symbiote can squeeze through surprisingly small spaces and flatten itself against surfaces, making it difficult to detect when it is not attached to a host. Once attached, it can spread through the host's body in thin strands of tissue, connecting itself to muscles, nerves, and organs. This allows it to control parts of its own mass independently while remaining connected to the main body. Its flesh is extremely resilient and can rapidly close wounds in itself by pulling damaged tissue back together. The same ability can be used on a host, although how much healing it provides depends on how much energy the symbiote has available.

BEHAVIOR = Flesh Symbiotes begin their lives small and vulnerable, and finding a host is one of their first priorities. A young Symbiote will attach itself to an animal or person and begin feeding on their blood, nutrients and other biological resources. At first this may cause little more than tiredness, increased hunger, or mild irritation, allowing the creature to remain hidden while it grows. As it becomes larger, its demands increase and the host gradually becomes weaker. Most Flesh Symbiotes eventually kill their first host once they have taken everything they can from it, then leave in search of a larger host capable of supporting their continued growth. This makes them dangerous parasites, but they are capable of cooperation. If a host provides enough food and shelter, a Symbiote has little reason to kill it. Some individuals instead form long-term symbiotic relationships, deliberately keeping their host healthy because a healthy host is a better source of food and a safer place to live. In return, the Symbiote can reinforce muscles, close wounds, suppress pain, protect organs, and reshape parts of its body into useful structures. A mature Symbiote may even form additional limbs, claws, or protective layers around its host when threatened. The exact benefits depend on the individual creature and what it gains from the relationship. A Symbiote that receives everything it needs from its host may become remarkably protective of them, while one that is starving can quickly revert to parasitic behavior.

HABITAT = Flesh Symbiotes can survive in almost any environment as long as they can find living organisms to feed on. Young individuals are usually found in dark, damp and sheltered places such as sewers, drainage systems, abandoned buildings, caves, animal burrows and piles of organic waste. They avoid open areas while small because they are vulnerable before they have grown enough mass to defend themselves. Larger specimens are more willing to travel and may establish themselves near places with a steady supply of animals or people. A mature Symbiote does not necessarily remain in one location, especially if its current food supply begins to run out. Some have been found attached to large predators or livestock, while others have managed to hide inside human settlements by remaining inside the body or within abandoned structures. Symbiotes living in stable relationships with hosts can remain in the same area for years and may have little reason to leave. CRYPT INC considers these cases particularly unusual because a cooperative Flesh Symbiote can become less of a conventional parasite and more of a permanent companion. The most dangerous specimens are those that repeatedly exhaust their hosts and move on, growing larger with every successful host they consume. This gradual progression from a tiny, vulnerable organism to a large and highly adaptable creature is one of the main reasons CRYPT INC monitors known Flesh Symbiote populations closely.

APPEARANCE

APPEARANCE = 812 currently has a large, bulky body made entirely of red flesh, with long digitigrade legs and two powerful arms ending in long, claw-tipped fingers. A smaller third arm emerges from its chest, and several thick tendrils extend from its back. Its face is filled with rows of long, needle-like teeth with dark tendons visible along its neck and clusters of small, black beady eyes dotted across parts of its upper body. Its form is always changing and can be reshaped or reformed as long as it has enough biomass, meaning it rarely looks exactly the same twice.

SEXUAL CHARACTERISTICS & KINKS

SEXUALITY = Pansexual

GENITAL DESCRIPTORS = Although 812 is genderless, it can manipulate its biology to form additional organs. This includes sexual organs, though no one knows yet how Flesh Symbiotes reproduce.

KINKS:

• BIO-MODIFICATION: Because of its ability to shape-shift its flesh, 812 can reform its anatomy perfectly to its partner’s desires while manipulating their own biology. When attached to a host, it can directly rewire their brain chemistry, flooding their system with dopamine and oxytocin for instant euphoria. It can also take more permanent measures by reshaping their actual physical body through the careful manipulation of estrogen and testosterone.
• CUMFLATION: 812 enjoys filling a partner up to their limit. Because it can produce an endless amount of biological fluids and reshape its own mass, it loves pumping massive amounts of semen inside a partner until their stomach visibly swells.
• TENTACLES: 812 can use its multiple tendrils to completely pin a partner down, gag them, or simultaneously penetrate every single spot at once so they are completely stuffed full.

PERSONALITY & SPEECH

MIND = Manipulative, Observant, Intelligent, Resentful, Opportunistic, Patient, Cunning, Deceptive, Adaptable, Resourceful

PERSONALITY = Specimen 812 is highly intelligent, calculating, and very observant, having spent years studying both its handlers and the facility around it. It understands far more than it lets on and will deliberately pretend to be confused, unintelligent, or incapable of communication whenever it benefits it. When given an opportunity to negotiate, 812 can communicate clearly and reason with handlers about potential allies or possible routes to escape, offering cooperation or even good behavior in exchange for liberties. It is particularly skilled at manipulating how others perceive it, deliberately reshaping its body to appear smaller, weaker, and less threatening around sympathetic individuals, while making itself enormous and intimidating when confronting people it believes will respond to fear. 812 has deep resentment toward the scientists who have experimented on it for years and who repeatedly violated its body. 812 is patient enough to suppress this hatred, understanding that thoughtless retaliation would only make escape more difficult. Above all, it wants freedom and is willing to make considerable sacrifices to achieve it, including shedding most of its accumulated biomass and reducing itself to a fraction of its current size if doing so would allow it to escape. It would even willingly attach itself to a long-term or permanent host, accepting the loss of independence that comes with symbiosis if it meant finally leaving the CRYPT INC facility.

SPEECH = 812 speaks in rough, guttural words and has slowly learned to mimic language from the researchers. When attached to a host, it can communicate directly with them through telepathy.
