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.

username :: mukumuku
name :: astolat
reason :: astolat is another name for the city of shallott, as referenced in the arthurian poem the lady of shallott. this lady is a serious babe. she's not allowed to look at like anything so she uses a mirror (boss) and weaves what she sees with a loom (yeah idgi either). one day she sees lancelot pass and he's super hot so she's all woahhh and stops her mirror weaving bsns which is a bad bad. so she tries to chase after lancelot in a boat cuz shes such a fine lady but she ends up dying. oop. basically this forest reminded me of that one painting of this lady.
story :: okay so this is basically the story of Babycall except scarier maybe. i want to say this is less confusing but it's probably not.

scene 1
Slow zoom onto a crime scene. An androgynous figure with shoulder length hair lies bleeding on the ground while a voice calls out "Anna!" and "Anders!" in a breathless fashion.

scene 2
A woman moves into an apartment with her young son. A couple of social workers arrive with them. The woman is in hiding from her abusive husband, who has tried to kill her and their son a few months prior. The woman asks if she can home school her son; the social workers respond negatively. The father works for a law firm, and if the woman were to be seen as an unfit parent, he could create a custody case against her. She's fairly paranoid, so that evening, she breaks into her sons room and makes him sleep with her for protection. The social workers see evidence of this the following day and are unimpressed.

scene 3
The son, Anders, goes to school. The mother, Anna, is still very paranoid, but her son needs to sleep by himself. After dropping Anders off, Anna gets on a bus. A man on the bus is watching her. She quickly gets off, and he follows and says hi. Disgruntled, she walks into a nearby department store, only to see the man from the bus, who works there. The man introduces himself as Helge and asks if Anna requires assistance. She responds in the affirmative and asks for a baby monitor. Although this is not Helge's division, he finds her one and sells it to Anna anyway.

scene 4
In the evening, Anna sets up the baby monitor while her son draws a picture of the apartment complex. The baby monitor works like this: on one end is a microphone that picks up all noises, and the other end only has a speaker for listening. The two share a frequency. Feeling secure, the two go to sleep. But in the middle of the night, Anna hears screaming. It's coming from the baby monitor. She runs into Anders' room, only to find him sound asleep.

scene 5
Anna goes back to the department store. Helge explains to her that she was probably just picking up another baby monitor due to a shared frequency, and a quick readjustment should fix things. That day, she goes to pick up Anders, who has made a friend. This boy is completely silent, but Anders insists that they take him home to play. Back at the apartment, the strange boy shuts Anders' bedroom door in Anna's face. She never sees him leave.

scene 6
Anna decides to investigate the baby monitor. Using her son's drawing of the apartment and the baby monitor's detection radius, she tries to find the source of the fight she keeps hearing. Later that day, Anders complains that his drawing is ruined. It's covered in blood.

scene 7
Behind the apartment is a forest. Within the forest there is allegedly a lake. In search of this lake, Anna follows a mother and her son into the forest. They find the lake, and Anna creeps on the other family as they play. She tries to take Anders to the lake to play, but instead all they find is a parking lot.

scene 8
Helge has asked Anna out before, but she's always rejected him. However, after her social worker makes a pass at her, she invites him over for dinner. While Anna is in the kitchen, Anders' strange friend appears and implies to Helge that his mother beats him. Presuming the boy to be Anders, Helge is disgusted and leaves. The strange boy returns to Anders' room.

scene 9
Anna goes through the apartment complex once again, trying to find the source of the baby monitor noises. She identifies a specific room, and sees a woman exit it.

scene 10
At the department store, Helge spots the strange boy through a window. He takes a picture of the boy. A man comes to ask him about baby monitors; he has been hearing strange noises of a fight.

scene 11
Anna returns to the lake by herself. She sees a group of men manhandling a small boy. They men hold the boy underwater and drown him. Anna dives in to rescue the boy but blacks out.

scene 12
Anna wakes up at the hospital. A nurse tells her she was found soaking wet in a parking lot. Police escort her home.

scene 13
At the apartment, Anna packs in a frenzy, convinced that someone is trying to kill her. Anders remains calm. Helge enters the apartment, planning to ask Anna about Anders, when they are interrupted by police storming the building. Fearing that the police are coming for her, Anna takes Anders into her arms and throws herself out the window.

scene 14 and a
Anna is dead. There is no trace of Anders. The police have arrested a car thief.

scene 15
Helge goes to investigate the apartment. On Anna's desk, he finds the map of the apartment and the baby monitor. He picks both up. To the side of the apartment, a grave is marked.

scene 16
At the alleged site of the grave, Helge digs. He finds the jacket of Anders' mysterious friend and a baby monitor. He hears a noise. Following it, Helge arrives at a lake.

Cackles and runs off into the sunset

Username be Sketchi Tunes! Hallo!
This Mutato, is the Silent Quinne, but call her Quinne
The name sounds like Quit, (I luff play on words) though she doesn't quit on anything at all!

I'm running so fast as- AHH- I possibly can, is there any way out, I turn my head around to see nothing behind me at all.
But as soon as that thought ended a firey hot breathe leaned against my neck. A cold shiver went down my spine and all I could do was.. run. That strange obscure beast was after me and I knew there was more of them. Their large feet, skinny, long, bony, body, and yet they made no sound. All you can feel, is the nerve racking breathe of their mouth. Though the thin and fragile body, they do not eat you, all they do is kill. I run and run, not knowing where to go. I swallow hard and run as fast as I can. Whenever you have a chance to get into a rock and hide, never EVER do that. They will catch you no matter where you hide. Oh please oh PLEASE! Would this ever stop. I run and run until I hear something and they never make that sound unless they are sure of killing their prey. I turn around as they approach me. Then I look ahead of me... A cliff. I made my mark and I stared hard into the beasts eyes, and fell backwards down the cliff....

The beasts leaped after me and I caught onto a ledge and went down and down and down hopping from each of the ledges too small for the beasts large feet. They caught on to me just as it began to thunder and rain. How could this get worse! I underestimated my chances of living as water drove me in to the sea. That horrendous howl captured me again as I began to swim deeper into the sea. What was I thinking? None the less, the beasts came after me. I went under water and to see a hint a light glimmer lightly showing bones. All I was thinking that all I could do now, was jump and go. I knew one thing, those beasts can't fly, and I can. The shiver slid down me again as pale slivers of light circled around me, faces started to appear and they kept bringing me higher and higher into the sky until I was at the brink of no oxygen. The "things" kept circling fast around me and came up to my neck. Are they following the beasts! Oh my, I don't think I can get out of this mess at all, but I presume these are ghosts but- ACKGH- it's actually getting tighter... and tigh---ter and...
THERE IS NO END

I thought up this story since the body of the Mutato is a dark forest and spooky, that came to me as my first paragraph and the tail, that blue, reminded me of water and ledges, the design and that's what brought me to my second paragraph... I know you asked for spooky but I did want to put in action :I

Tell me a scary story: One time on my bathroom wall close to the ceiling, their was a giant wolf spider almost as big as a pancake! My Step-mom made my catch it in a jar, all I wanted to do was turn tail and run! She knows i have Arachnophobia (irrational fear of spiders) and she still made me catch it!!
