The Lurkelid

"I'm... Sorry.."

## Description

The Lurkelid is a female Lurkelid. She is often outcasted by the main team due to Swiper, and also the Lurkelid's species. She is shown to be powerful yet very weak against certain things, and she is also shown to be friends with Prickles and BIG SHOT. She usually stays in her capsule, forever in fear of even hurting her friends..

## Personality

The Lurkelid is shown to be very shy and also very understanding towards certain things. She often appears to be forgiving to those who have wrong her, and she has also appeared to be pretty nice overall, despite her very shy personality. The Lurkelid has trouble opening up to new doodles and people who dare to come across and meet her.

## Appearance

The Lurkelid has a long and slender-like body, similar to a leech. She has no eyes and has around 6 fins, with 4 working as legs and 2 working as small hands which have 2 fingers at the end. Her body is covered in spikes that look similar to her teeth. At the end of her head, she has an open circular mouth with 5 teeth in total, and her tail has a small fin with smaller spikes.

## Background

When first being introduced to the team after a trade with the trainer Rokughor, she was immediately judged by what felt like almost everyone. She was a parasite, and her looks were also.. Creepy. Immediately she was seen as a mindless distrustful being whose only goal was to hurt the team members. This was thought because well.. Her species. Its known as a parasite, its known to be dangerous and somewhat mindless. So instantly she was outcasted. Swiper immediately began to take action, making fun of the Lurkelid's looks and also species in general, taking jabs at everything the girl did. She even bit her a few times to make sure the parasite wouldn't pull anything. Prickles would attempt to nice nice but overall was unintentionally rude. Sure, this rudeness could be out of fear she might hurt him, but still, it was obvious she had no bad intentions. Montor was pushed away from ever talking to her via Swipers commands and threats. Giggle was arguably the friendliest, however Swiper made sure he was also pushed away from the Lurkelid..

The Lurkelid felt purely alone. Her new team, her new chance, everything was just.. MEAN. Ruthless.. Awful. She really thought she would have a chance at some friends but **NO.** Her looks and her species kept her away. So, in fashion, she tried to change herself. Though her tendencies of being a parasite remained before, they were never really acted upon (at least not on team members). But now, to better fit in.. She was going to try and get rid of them. She attempted to force her normal tendencies of parasitic ability to NOTHING. This in turn began to hurt her, as those same tendencies she tries to push away kept on coming back stronger and strong. But she didn't.. Listen to them. Even though she knew this would be terrible, she just wanted to seem normal. **NORMAL** enough to fit into the team, so she didn't listen to what she really needed..

However..

As expected, not everything can be pushed away so easily. And during one beach day, her urges suddenly *won.* The first one she attacked was Swiper. Then, Prickles. Then Bitter. And then a few doodles nearby. She latched onto them and attempted to drown them all in the waters true to her species, she attacked, she made sure the air was no were. Montor attempted to help his team members from her grasp however due to how fast she had struck it was nearby impossible.

..Until someone arrived.

Sensing danger, Wolfgang immediately began to take action. She ran into the water's depths and freed the team members from the Lurkelid's grasp, before inevitably hurting the parasite, leaving the Lurkelid almost dead in the oceans. As Wolfgang was celebrated for what she had done, which was VERY well deserved, the Lurkelid was left to rot down in the waters. Barely having the strength to pull herself back up, Montor eventually swam over and helped the Lurkelid onto the beaches sandy floors.

..Since that day, the Lurkelid was more outcasted than ever. She tried her best to resist the temptation of her parasite abilities however now everyone seems to hate her more than ever before. She sat in silence, barely ever leaving her capsule, in fear to hurt anyone again. However, that was until meeting her current friend, BIG SHOT. As soon as the salesman reached into the capsule and let Lurkelid get to know her, they became good friends. And eventually.. She opened up to BIG SHOT, and now... The Lurkelid couldn't be more grateful for the 2 friends she has currently.

## Notes

* Lurkelid's name hasn't been changed to make her feel more like a mindless parasite.
* It took around 3 months or so for Prickles to fully forgive her.
* The Lurkelid loves magic and teddy bears.
