FASA Creature Concept 365 Challenge Day 75
FASA 365 Day 75, Drilling Dither, Parasite. 6-8 inches.
Found, literally drilled into sides of larger deep sea carnivores. eating the scraps.
Should the host die or cease, for any reason to provide consistent meals; the dither detaches and floats, whirling in the currents until a new host is found, where by it will cling to, root, burrow, or more accurately “drill” into a new hapless host.
Fishermen finding a Dither in their nets or still attached should avoid getting too close. It will detach or attack humans viscously, not as a potential host, but as a very large easy meal. You see, human flesh or rather skin, is much easier to penetrate than say a whale, shark, or barracuda.
Humans are their “tenderloin” one might say.
Artist Note: This here is where Vol 2 begins.
