Lobicharix

Lobicharix is the name of a rare creature sighted in and around the Mid Atlantic trench. Video of the creatures have been captured by deep sea exploration vessels, but as of yet no specimens have been collected. The creatures seem quite intelligent, and show curiosity towards ROV submersibles. It is theorized they may be a mutation spawned from radioactive waste dumped in the area in the 1960's. Further details about the creature's behavior and habitat are unknown.

Pachuliwurm

Pachuliwurms are overlarge mutations made from human and several species of deep sea worm genes. The experiment began as a way of creating genetically engineered human beings capable of surviving in extremely harsh environments. the Pachuliwurms began as small larvae, but soon matured into 12 foot adults and quickly escaped from confinement. Several made their way into the sea, and have been found forming primitive communities around deep sea vents in the Pacific.

SkuttleWurm


The SkuttleWurm is a mutated offshoot of a Pompeii deep sea worm (Alvinella pompejana.) In the late 1960's, large amounts of nuclear pollution was dumped into several deep sea trenches. The pollution mixed in with the heat and organic stew normally found in an deep sea vent environment. The resulting mutation is a 5-foot long mobile walking deep sea worm which is able to hunt on land for extensive periods of time.

Skuttler



Distant relatives of the Tube Walker, the Skuttler are shore dwelling, amphibious entities descended from deep sea tube worms. The creature has multiple "mouths" hidden in the folds between it's head feelers.
