Masochistic Monstrosities
 
Basically, come up with animals with bodies designed to hurt themselves.


FOR EXAMPLE:
A creature with four legs, each tilted inward toward its stomach, the digestive tract evacuates out of the very bottom of this, with an enormous gaseous and nerve filled belly hanging around it. (I might draw this, as un-explicitly as possible, to make more sense out of it.)

Except the tract is too short, and it just kind of streams out every now end then ( out of its anus ), but when the legs move, they squeeze the belly, which forces this pukey, acidic poop out in huge bursts all over its knees, the feet are just stumps because it can only sleep standing up, so all this fluid pools below it.

GO ON, TRY IT OUT

In before I'm the only one replying.

EDIT: BONUS ENDING FOR THE ABOVE MONSTER:
Eventually it melts the knee to the bone and slices itself open, and, unable to stand up, dies in a big pool of this stuff.

This is interesting and fresh.... what are you looking for exactly? Descriptions or drawings? Or Both?

Mac Sirloin 10-11-2008 11:38 PM

Either or, really, but you can imagine that letting your brain fill in the gaps might be more fun than anything definitive. (See: The Dunwich Horror)

Hmm... let me see...

A snake that has no mouth, only a tongue that hangs out from the front area, dragging on the ground as it moves.

It lives in areas with volcanic activity.

A rodent creature that's more sea urchen-like in appearance. Its spines provide good defense against predators, but the inward tips of them have tiny, thorn-like appendages constantly irritating the creature's internal organs. Appropiately named the Pin Cushion Mouse.

i dont know, hmmm, a moducken with a slog head, sligs legs, fleeches tongue, and sligs eyes.

A creature who keeps its gonads on the soles of its feet.

Lacy Hemsmire 10-12-2008 06:28 PM

Hmmm. Okay.

A giraffe-type creature. It is lacking in the necessary vertebrae designed to keep its neck stable, and so has great difficulty moving. To top it off, any severe neck movements could result in tearing of the lining on the inside of the neck. The bottom of its hooves are unusually soft, and seeing as it lives in a rocky area, always ends up stepping on something sharp, which will occasionally lodge inside the tissue of the hoof.

The head, is unusually large and so its neck must droop, causing the few vertebrae extra strain and occasionally, the neck can snap, forcing the creature to drag its head between its legs. :] Oh, and it's a cannibal. Just to add to the whole self-harm thing. Heehee.

How's that? I'm not so good with anatomy. XDD

This is really good, but I'm leaning more towards something that doesn't really look like a normal animal.

Exactly what I'm looking for.

This is the only post by me that will ever be in this thread.

Leto 10-13-2008 10:19 PM

What is it whit you and the "Pointless thread, post something about an animal, and mabye a subject" threads, Kastere?

Not complaining, merely an observation

Mac Sirloin 10-15-2008 07:48 PM

It's not pointless. I was going to steal your ideas for a story.

the only other example I can think of is the BudieXPorn one, too.
