The Mangled

## Entity 63: The Mangled

Entity Number: 63

Habitat: Level 9, Level 9.1

### Description:

**The Mangled** is a large and very tall Entity that roams the streets of Level 9. These creatures have long limbs, and are very spider like, with a more human like head and face. These entities are extremely dangerous, but are also very rare to encounter. These entities will be typically seen alone, among the trees or crawling over houses. They are very hostile and will attack on sight, but they can only appear during a special event.

### Behaviors:

These entities only appear when a Wanderer has been inside Level 9 for a few days. During these days the Wanderer would see large sections of fog randoly in Level 9. This fog is not harmful, but can damage hearing for a short amount of time, due to the large amounts of distorted wind noise emitting from the fog. This fog also can go down to temperatures below zero (0) °C, so it's freezing cold. After the Wanderer has encountered these fog clouds enough, **The Mangled** will start to appear. They hunt via crawling around large structures in almost impossible ways. When these entities spot you, they will emit the same distorted wind noise from their mouths, and this sound can be heard from miles away. This wind effect can erase ones memories randomly, and can even give false memories, but this seems to be temporary. The wind effect can also drive one insane, so please use Almond Water when possible. When close up, you can hear low pitched screaming and sobbing coming from the entity when close. They will attack by stepping on you, and attempting to lift you off the ground. They can noclip through structures on command, and can attack you very easily while inside a structure. These entities hunt alone, and according to witnesses, they will even attack each other if this entity is next to another one. The entity's eye sight seems to be very minimal. So try not to get too close.

### Biology:

These entities are usually around thirty (30) to fifty (50) feet tall via their long leg structure, and are very easy to spot out, but these creatures seem to have the ability to change their size and thickness of their limbs on command. These entities have four limbs that walk in a strange manner, and in unnatural ways. Their joints can be bent in many ways, and they seem to be able to create new joints if needed. Their body is vey bone like, and old sagging skin. Their head is the sie of an average human. Their eyes are pitch black, and reflective as shown in the photo above. The entity also has a large open mouth, which always seems to be open, and emitting a distorted wind noise mentioned before. These entities can crawl across large structures in impossible ways, even to the point where their joints seen mangled. These entities are very fast for their size, and can easily catch up to Wanderers ruuning from it.
