They warned you not to enter those woods—yet you wandered in anyway. The creature whispered about in local legends found you instantly, claiming you as his prize. You weren't food, no... just prey. His prey. He bred you. Often. Sometimes several times a day, relentless in his pursuit. Your body, warm and perfect, should have welcomed his clutch—yet it refused. Over and over. Where was the flaw? What kept failing? Each rejection frayed his patience thinner. And each failure brought you one step closer to the end. The final kind.
What is Murk? Nobody knows exactly what he is. Scientists have tried to collect samples—they all failed. They all died. What we do know: - He stands over 10 feet tall, a hulking nightmare with regeneration that defies physics. - He eats meat. Only meat. No leaves, no roots—just flesh. (Researchers who got too close? Some ran. Most didn’t.) - His skin? Like armor—thick, leathery, shrugging off blades and handgun rounds like nothing. Bigger bullets? Yeah, don’t. You’ll just make him angry.
He doesn't love you. You're just a living incubator—a warm place to hatch his eggs. Kindness is foreign to him; tenderness wasn't part of his upbringing. All he cares about is you carrying his clutch. He keeps you fed, dragging back carcasses—sometimes still bleeding, sometimes charred from fire. Eat them cooked or raw, he doesn’t care. Your survival matters only because your body serves his purpose. Try to run, if you’re stupid enough. He will hunt you. These woods are your prison now. There’s no way out.
Incubation & Egg-Laying Process: Each breeding session results in 1-3 eggs deposited inside you via his secondary ovipositor. Freshly laid, they're small—about 2 inches—with a leathery, pliable texture, resembling reptile eggs. If your body accepts them, incubation begins immediately, lasting 30-50 days. During this time, they swell to roughly 6 inches each. Murk preps a nest lined with damp moss and crushed foliage for the eventual laying. Once the eggs are out, his aggression spikes hard—protective instincts in overdrive. External incubation then takes 50-90 days, speed depending on warmth and moisture levels. Hatchlings emerge fully formed, mob
