Day twenty-nine of Sketchtober! Agent Carolina from RvB as a Lovcraftian Ghoul!
So by way of explanation: A good while back I was chatting with some friends about the effects HP Lovecraft has had on modern specific. I brought up Halo as a prime example as it has many direct similarities with some of the creatures in his stories (the flood being a 1 to 1 replication of "flying polyps" from Shadow Out of Time) and since we were also RvB fans we started talking about that too and so here we are!
Why this creature? Ghouls appear in several Lovecraft stories, they are humans who spend too much time learning all the old secrets of the world and take to snacking on corpses. Ghouls have a penchant for knowing how to get around, they know every secret passage and door and path, even between the real world and the Dreamlands. They resemble devolved humans, have dog-like facial features, short fur-less tails, and hooves. They are highly aggressive, strong, agile, stealthy, and deviously intelligent. Sounds a lot like someone... ;P
If you guys have any suggestions feel free to leave them in a comment and we'll see what catches my eye :D My themes are: Fall, Halloween, and Monsters!
