What is a Mutato?In a rapidly changing world of rapidly accumulating toxic waste, Mutatoes take to the sky.
These creatures, affectionately dubbed Mutatoes, are a sad combination of an unknown creature, radioactive material, and a potato.
They live in the sky and consume UV radiation. They are the new era of Super Man.
At birth Mutatoes are about the size of a potato and can grow to around the size of a basketball.
Generally they are busy creatures who would prefer flying to being carried.
The Mutato is filled with the same kind of gases that its tail is made of.
These gases are currently unidentified, but are lighter than air- enabling them to fly.
They can stay in the air for a maximum of 20 hours straight before they need to land and "rest".
Though, when they can't be in the air, Mutatoes pace... a lot.

In Umbra Luna Est is a line in one of my favorite songs, "The Moon Rises." But that's not the only reason I named this Mutato as I did. In Umbra Luna Est means The Moon Is In Shadow in Latin. To me, moonlight is a very beautiful thing. But when moonlight is hidden behind a cloud or a patch of mist or fog, it becomes shadowed, and the light must filter through whatever is obstructing it. This phenomenon causes moonlight to transition from being a thing of beauty to a thing that may frighten certain people - and horror movie directors and novelists alike use this transition to their advantage.
The Moon Is In Shadow is also a phrase that could refer to the New Moon. The New Moon is a phase in the Lunar Phases/Phases of the Moon where the moon is completely obstructed from view due to its closeness to the sun. While not literally being obstructed from view by a shadow, it does appear to be so. The only time the moon is truly in shadow is during a Lunar Eclipse, a phenomenon which happens when the moon passes behind the earth, and thus falls into the earth's shadow.
Information on the moon and the Lunar Phases can be found here, here, and here.

I have Automatonophobia (fear of ventriloquist's dummies, animatronic creatures, wax statues, or anything that falsely represents a sentient being) and Pediophobia (fear of dolls). I have gotten rid of some of my dolls I had as a child for this reason. I was NEVER obsessed with dolls as a child - I've always preferred stuffed animals. I don't like dolls very much, but what creeps me out most is their human-like qualities. I don't like their faces, particularly their eyes. I really don't like ventriloquist's dummies, for mainly the same reasons as dolls. I don't like mannequins, either - but I can handle the ones without heads. The ones with heads, especially with eyes, make me uncomfortable. I've never seen a wax statue, so I'm not sure if I fear them, and I am strangely okay with animatronic creatures - however, I've mainly seen animal animatronic creatures, and very few humans.
Acrophobia/Altophobia is the fear of heights - and I have had this fear for a long time. I can barely go past the third step on a ladder before I start feeling like I'm going to start hyperventilating. A couple times in my life I have actually climbed up an entire ladder...though getting down was quite difficult.
Chiroptophobia is the fear of bats, and I recently discovered I have this. I found out when I was visiting a zoo - we were in a cave-like place, and there was a cage filled with shrieking bats, flying about. Their shrill cries and screeches made me VERY uncomfortable...and they smelled pretty bad, too, so there's another reason why I don't like them. At the zoo, I nearly freaked out when I was near the cage. Thankfully a family member wheeled me away from them (I was in a wheelchair at the time because of a toenail surgery) after a couple minutes, but even just sitting there, with a cage protecting me from them, I wanted to scream, "GET ME OUT OF HERE!" when I heard their frantic screaming and the fluttering of their wings. I noticed that I had started breathing heavier, as well, and could feel myself growing more wary of the beasts with every passing second I sat less than two feet away from their cage... *shudders*
I also have Claustrophobia, which is the fear of confined spaces. I don't like elevators for many reasons, and this is just one of them.
I also have a mild case of Agoraphobia, which is the fear of open spaces or of being in crowded, public places like markets...it can also be the fear of leaving a safe place. I HATE being in a place where I don't think I'm safe. While this place may be an open space, it is not necessarily always one - take crowds for instance. I a have mild case of Demophobia/Ochlophobia/Enochlophobia, which is the fear of crowds. I get very uncomfortable in crowds because I feel less safe in them...but if I'm alone in a large, open space where I'm vulnerable to being attacked, I am just as uncomfortable, if not more so.
I also have a mild case of Atelophobia, which is the fear of imperfection. While being perfectionistic about most things, I am not perfectionistic about EVERYTHING. My Atelophobia is caused by my Atychiphobia - the fear of failure. Because I don't like to fail, I try to make everything perfect...by my reasoning, if it's as perfect as it can be, it's less likely to fail...if I make something as perfect as I can, I'm less likely to fail.
In addition to these fears, I also have a mild case of Achluophobia/Lygophobia - the fear of darkness. I have difficulty sleeping or even staying in a room that is 100% dark - I have to have at least a little bit of light coming in from somewhere (a cracked curtain with moonlight streaming through, a small nightlight, etc.). If I find myself in complete utter darkness, I generally freak out, and usually have difficulty breathing. In a completely dark space, I feel a certain "walls are closing in" sensation - it's like I can feel the room getting smaller and smaller with every passing second. If I have to stay in a dark room for even a short period of time, I feel very Claustrophobic. If I absolutely HAVE to sleep in a dark room I will - but usually I have a difficult time falling asleep.
I also have Insectophobia/Entomophobia, which is the fear of insects. The little things aren't called "creepy crawlies" for no reason. I don't really like them very much - some of them scare me more than others, though. The flying ones are scariest to me - bees, mosquitos, and beetles in particular. Weirdly, I love butterflies, pill bugs, and lady bugs...and I can usually handle small moths and praying mantises...but most other bugs I don't like. What's even stranger is that I don't like large bugs of nearly any sort - big praying mantises are kind of creepy, and I still shriek whenever I see a large moth. It's the size of the bug that usually matters to me - the bigger they are, the creepier they are. I also have a mild case of Arachnophobia/Arachnephobia, which is the fear of spiders."The Moon Rises" by ponyphonic
Now the hour has come at last, the soft and fading light has
crossed the west horizon and has bidden us goodnight...And
what a lovely night it is to walk a moonlit field, to see the
softer shades that are by starlight now revealed.
So why is it that now when all is quiet and at rest, when
candles glow and all the world is at its very best, the
ponies of Equestria should lock themselves away to shun
the moon and wait instead for Sister's sunny day?
In umbra Luna est!
Am I so wrong to wish that they would see things like I
do? And am I so wrong to think that they might love me
too? Why shouldn't they adore me? Is it not within my
right? I'll not be overshadowed! Mine is not the lesser
light!
Well, I've waited long enough, now, for them all to
come around...and though the Sun may plead and
threaten, the Moon will stand her ground! And all
will know the wonder of my dark and jeweled sky,
when all the world is wrapped in an eternal lullaby!
So say goodnight at this, the final setting of the sun!
Tomorrow dawns in darkness.... The nighttime has
begun!
