This is Moshti, property of Phoenix Kaelen (![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
ashes_ascended ) and Alec Troven master_troven. (AKA element_wizard)
Moshti is a blobby little alien who moves around on his tentacles. His species are Quirm, and are from somewhere around the Cepheus-Draco border, *Typist tips hat to 3rd Rock From the Sun*.
Moshti is a baby, the size of a small footstool, around two and a half feet in diameter. He'll grow to be the size of a large dining table... although he's been a baby for a suspiciously long time.
Yes, he has a trunk, which serves as both nose and mouth. Predictably, the sounds he makes are not dissimilar to those of a baby elephant .
When he's feeling insecure, he likes to hold things, like his rubber-bone shaped dogtoy, or a nice stick. It's believed that this is because the babies like to hold onto one of the mothers tendrils for reassurance.
D'awwwwwwww.
And sometimes? He'll hold on to the nearest available object for security. When said object happens to be daddy's back-up temporal teleport device, it can lead to no end of trouble. The one time he pickpocketed Phoenix's spare device, he inhaled it, and because of Alec's chaos field the device became integrated into Moshti's DNA. Now he can appear at any time, and in any place.
He feeds on liquids only - milk, soup, fruit juices, smoothies, anything that isn't porridge. For some inexplicable reason, porridge terrifies him. It could be something to do with a weird natural predator.
It takes him over half an hour, but he insists on crawling up the nearest wall when he's tired.
Once he's reached the ceiling, he suckers himself to it, and sleeps there, like a big bag of jelly. Alec wants to feed him something that'll make him fluorescent, That way they can use him as a light. Phoenix is all for this idea... in theory.
Moshti has no teeth, is not a cthulhu, is totally harmless and quite friendly - if a little shy.
