Hey guys, so I am working on a project and I need some original, evil monsters. The scarier the better! The project involves a world consumed in darkness and evil so go hard core at it! I think you guys will have some fun creating these things that go bump in the night and thank you ahead of time!

Creating the monster please keep in mind that:
- it needs to be evil or scary (scary does not mean evil, it can be neutral)
- pictures/sketches are wanted no matter how bad although not needed
- you don't want to get in trouble, if you feel it is too much to post here then inbox me
- it can be a species of monsters (ie- zombies) or just one existing (ie- Frankenstein's monster)
- THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT: have fun!!!

Example--
Name- Tooth muncher
A tooth muncher is a lanky, grey skinned creature that feeds off of fallen teeth or the teeth of corpses. A tooth muncher walks on two legs and can open doors and windows with it's bony, malnourished arms. While a tooth muncher will not kill anyone, this does not stop it for reaching into the mouth of a sleeping child to pull out his/her loose tooth. This can create quite a fright and towns with reports of a tooth muncher take special precautions to keep them out of the house. A tooth muncher can usually be found at an under kept grave yard.

Aliens. Tons and tons of Aliens. Although it would probably be better to use different Aliens.

I'm going to give this some thought, I have a couple of interesting ideas that need to simmer for this.

Thats great! Thank you for taking the time to consider things! I look forward to what your brilliant mind can create from obscurity! (Obscurity is the name of the world, I had to throw that in. Its still probably a better pep talk than what I give my team working on it!)
Walking Suit
WalkingSuit_zpsf256870b.png

A husk of hairless flesh and muscle that vaguely resembles a person. Because it does not have a very strong skeletal structure, it relies on the element of surprise, often standing completely motionless and mimicking tree branches or, in more modern settings, department store manikins.

When a victim is within range, it can run very quickly and leap at the person, 'opening up' along its chest cavity, head, and limbs and snapping shut around the 'wearer' like a full-body suit of flesh. Rows of teeth lining the inner edges of the creature's openings (almost like the teeth of a zipper) pierce the victim on contact (if the creature is given enough time to close) and hold them in place until they have either died of suffocation, or digestion.

Ew.

They are very weak to fire and other anti-flesh weaponry. They can also be overpowered by hand, as their bones and muscles are fairly weak due to their hollow bodies.

Sidenote: Rarely, a Suit that has been alive for a while and had regular contact with people may get smart and attempt to disguise itself, either by wearing a victim's clothing, or constructing a mask or facial decoration that gives it a more human appearance. Because they do not have true faces of their own, it is not uncommon to see an older Walking Suit with a big :) drawn on its face with mud or some other easily-accessible medium.

That is genious! Creepy and genious. Thanks and very good job on that! Did you create that all your own? (drawing and all?)
Yes. I've had a lot of free time on my hands, so I'm trying to write and draw a new thing every day to keep my creativity up until my next project. When you said you wanted scary, I immediately thought of what would scare me; being confined in a tight, dark space. The thought that something could exist to create that environment at any time and out of nowhere made it scary enough to draw after I finished writing up the snippet.

Glad you like it. Lemme know if it gets any use, yeah?

EDIT: Not pictured is the Dapper Suit, a subspecies of Walking Suit. It wears a snazzy tuxedo, has a mustache drawn on its face, and lives off of bottles of fine wine and champagne rather than meat. It likes to listen to Frank Sinatra music and correct people's grammar. (Thanks a lot, Tailbone. This is canon now!)

Thats pretty cool, I will make sure it gets some use! I work with a team of people but honestly they can't create that scary of monsters, although neither can I! I tend to make more evil than scary (I'm currently working on creatures made of shadows). Thanks for this awesome monster! We are small right now but are soon looking into getting donators and other contributers so we can make this thing!
Have you read Dante's Inferno? You can get some good ideas about hideous things from there (I had a class project about this once)

I have not but I will look into it, thanks!
