Death Kiss

Death Kiss are a Member of the Beholder-kin that first appeared in The Autistic hero 2: World's Clashing. They are some of the few beholder members that don't have eyestalks and instead have these toothy mouthed tentacles resembling the tentacles of the Displacer Beast's back tentacle tips only these are more like feeding tubes than striking weapons. Death Kisses are also called Bleeders, Eyes of Terror, or Mournful Fakers because of their eyes looking like they are pleading but in reality can be a trap. Death Kiss are hypothesized to be the Anomaly known as The Chupacabra which is due to the fact they seem to drain the blood of everything they find with iron rich blood. They are good at hiding their identities however. Death Kiss were first identified when Malzeno Dracula was first unveiled and thus her beloved pet she calls "Suckura" who she seems to have saved from starvation by letting it drain the blood of one of the villagers in Transylvania's town.

## Biology

Death kisses resembled beholders but lacked their Iconic eyestalks and their mouth below their main eye, and in their place were covered in 30 6 meter long tentacles ending in horrific mouths. Their bodies were 3 meters in diameter across and their sandpaper textured skin was a mottled gray or pale white, or a muted hue of the original beholder's skin. At the end of each of their tentacles was a tooth infested mouth, and each tentacle was fully retractable which made it easier to fit into small crevices. They could speak through their mouths and they sounded high-pitched and nasally but also were generally polite. It is told by Manalogia The Beholder that death kisses were the result of getting lost in a Supervoid devoid of any light or magic which caused their appearances to change, however he also confirms that Death Kisses did find earth and thus their great mother because of the signals being given off by the Messier 13 and that lead them to earth. by the time they got back however their mouth and eyestalks had atrophied and were replaced with their tentacle mouths. these act like Lamprey mouths which stick into the skin of a victim with Iron Blood and then secrete a fluid which prevents blood clotting before drinking.

## Abilities

Blood Drain: Using it's tentacles, they can suck the blood of their prey which is easier because they secrete a substance that will prevent blood clotting like a leech. they use the blood to generate electricity. They can also regenerate damage and injuries when doing this but interestingly if they drink Copper blood then they will actually start to get rather sick

Electric Discharge: Death kiss can unleash a Discharge of electricity from it's eye in a 10 meter diameter area which the power of the electricity is determined by how much iron rich blood it drinks.

Intelligence: Death Kiss can be tamed as pets as seen with Malzeno Dracula where she was able to tame one by giving it a human corpse to drink.

Electric Burst: Whenever a death kiss dies, it will spread it's electric blood everywhere which can paralyze and potentially stop the heart of the attacker if it makes contact with the arteries.

## Trivia

Death kiss are the first beholder-kin without eyestalks.
