Big Mama
CharacterBig Mamas are alien creatures from the deepest reaches of space. The Kur domesticated an unknown number of them and use the beasts as living factories, turning the organisms they devour into exosuits for war.
Appearance
Every Big Mama is enormous and identical to the next, sharing a grotesquely warped anatomy. The torso is roughly humanoid with breasts, but the arms are pectoral fins, and an anal canal ends in a large bulge flanked by three tiny legs. Clusters of dots speckle the neck, the muscle running from fin to shoulder, the breasts, the abdomen, the back of the neck and the lats.
The face is stranger still. A fully dotted head carries two holes on the cheeks, four rows of noses, and four sets of eyes, a pair of slug-like ones bearing crossed concentric rings plus a single ringed eye on each side. Below sits a dark, lipped mouth packed with several rows of teeth that the creature seems to grind without stopping.
Personality
The Big Mamas display no trace of intelligence. They act on raw instinct, mindlessly consuming any living thing set down in front of them.
Abilities
The defining power of a Big Mama is conversion: from the living organisms it swallows, the creature manufactures the exosuits the Kur rely on for warfare.
