Other Species

For categorizing any unique NPC species within HorrorVale.

## Invisible

Invisible folk are individuals who are literally invisible. Despite people being unable to see them they actually exist, unlike your waifu, or the supposed monster under your bed you hear growling each night (at least we hope!). Although it would be relatively easy for invisible folk to continuously prank people, most are decent enough to wrap themselves in bandages or clothes so all you visible folk can easily talk to them for their one line of dialogue that made all the effort it took for them to get out of bed and dressed worth it.

* Claude

## Gorgon

Gorgon refers to a race of creatures with the distinct fashion sense of having snakes for hair. Unlike the gorgons from Greek mythology, the ones in the underworld don't instantly turn people who look at them to stone-although it should be easy to assume they still have this power should someone try to stick gum in their hair when they aren't looking. The term gorgon has a second definition as a repulsive or hideous woman, so in some regards I guess you could say everyone in the underworld is a gorgon to somebody.

* Maria

## Lakefolk

Not to be confused with merfolk. Lakefolk are green-scaled amphibious monsters with webbed fingers and toes, as well as notable fins on their bodies, typically on the backs or sides of their heads. Some members of the species may also have tails.

* Wendy (North Entrance NPC)
* Kurtis

## Mare

Mares are a race of small imp like creatures with dark skin and big mouths. In folklore, Mares are a race of creatures who induce nightmares in their victims by sleeping on their chests, of course you may know the Mare better by it's modern name "Sleep Paralysis", the feeling when you've woken up, but your body refuses to move because it's still in "sleep mode" and your mind begins to race-causing you to experience all sorts of unusual feelings. So the next time you deal with an episode of sleep paralysis you can thank these little things.

* Dream Eater

## Merfolk

Merfolk refers to a number of aquatic creatures. While most are fortunate enough to have legs, others have the unfortunate experience of requiring mobility devices to get around. One positive at least is that in the underworld, you don't need to breathe, so practically all Merfolk are capable of existing on land or in water regardless of if they have lungs or gills.

## Slime

Slimes are creatures composed of gelatinous substances. Unlike most RPG's where Slimes are the most basic canon fodder enemy marching towards their untimely demise against some random kid from some small village whose going to turn out to be some chosen one and save the world or something, Slimes in HorrorVale are ordinary citizens. Slimes are amorphous, and have the ability to change their body shape at will, don't expect to find any taking the shape of cubes however. While most slimes are ecto element, a slime's element is dependent on the substance their bodies are made out of.
