description: 'This three-armed, three-legged monster has no discernible eyes, nose,
|
|
ears, or mouth or no visible means of ingesting food. Its limbs are distributed
|
|
so evenly across its body that it is all but impossible to tell which way the creature
|
|
is oriented at any given time. Few who witness the quelaunt linger on its alien
|
|
looks for long though, as the most pressing concern quickly becomes the invasion
|
|
of their minds, as the quelaunt sows doubt, sorrow, and rage. This monstrosity not
|
|
only delights in the negative emotions of its prey, but feeds on them, gaining strength
|
|
and sustenance from their dismay. For the quelaunt, no act is too terrible or cruel
|
|
to inflict on its victims, since the more a creature suffers, the more the quelaunt
|
|
feasts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quelaunts are known to associate with other aberrant horrors, including brain collectors
|
|
and other creatures associated with the Dominion of the Black. However, the more
|
|
prevalent theory paints them as more alien—perhaps invasive beings from another
|
|
dimension of pure thought and feeling—and claims that in their natural state they
|
|
have no physical bodies at all. Few dare speculate further; the only known autopsy
|
|
of a quelaunt resulted in the researcher''s suicide just days afterward and all
|
|
the notes were mysteriously destroyed. Whatever secrets there are to be unlocked
|
|
in the anatomy of these bizarre monsters are apparently important enough to warrant
|
|
great protection from quelaunts, even after death.
