The Spooky Island Creatures are an unnamed race of strange supernatural beings which have inhabited the island for centuries, long before it was turned into a horror-themed park by Emile Mondavarious.

Biology

These creatures stand about twice as tall as a human and have an extremely lean and emaciated appearance which contrasts with their great physical strength. Their skin is greyish-red in color, and their eyes are bright green. They have digitigrade legs; five-fingered hands equipped with large claws; a mouth filled with sharp teeth; three pairs of short horns adorning the head and a pair of very long ears. Their foul breath can incapacitate people and render them unconscious.

The most notable aspect of these creatures is their extreme vulnerability to sunlight, which causes their bodies to disintegrate in mere seconds. For this reason, they can only safely operate at night. However, it's possible for them to counter this weakness due to their ability to possess the bodies of other creatures, such as humans, thus allowing them to withstand the sun. They use a magical device known as the Daemon Ritus to extract the protoplasmic spirits from their potential hosts' bodies so that the creatures can possess them, as they cannot do so otherwise.

When a creature possesses someone, the host's body will display the same powers that the creature had in its original form, such as superhuman strength and jumping ability. If the host's protoplasmic spirit manages to return to the body, the creature will be forcefully expelled and materialize in its original shape in from of its former host. This can be very bad for the creature if it happens during the day, as it might find itself directly under the sun with no means of protection.

History

The creatures have been inhabiting the island for centuries, long before it was turned into a theme park. An old legend claims that during the Darkopolypse Ritual, the creatures' leader can absorb the protoplasmic spirits of those who had become hosts to these beings; and that if the ritual is completed by absorbing a "purely good soul", the creatures will rise from the island and rule over the whole world for the next 10,000 years.
