Corrupt - ???, Joy
Yeah I've just given up at this point. The only reason why these three are lumped together is because they all make more of themselves. Are Kokeshi Corrupts too? Ha.
I don't know what these things were supposed to be, and I guess nobody else does too. They're happy I guess, I'll give them that, but there's not much else to them. They're still dangerous, yeah, but not nearly as much as the Vasen one. Dumb as a brick though.
Stahl's Notes: Unfortunately, unlike my colleague, I have the burden of knowledge. According to lab studies, and there have been many, these creatures AREN'T dumb as bricks, and they ARE dangerous. In fact, the reason they're so happy is because they love killing.
Few things bring them as much joy as tearing apart something they consider prey. It's all just a game to them. And they can hunt like nothing else. Their ability to blend into the shadows is both uncanny and inexplicable. I couldn't sleep for an entire month the first time I saw it.
Much like Rage, avoid at all costs.
Unlike other corrupts, from what we can tell these creatures, while they are separated into Male or Female, all of the parts are internal and incapable of touching each other, so how they breed is a complete mystery.
