[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Gorge is an enormous Pit-born creature built like a walking mass of hunger, weight, and impact. It towers over most people, its body swollen with unnatural bulk, sagging muscle, dense flesh, and layers of hardened fat thick enough to absorb punishment that would kill lesser monsters. Every movement makes the ground complain beneath it, and weak walls tremble before it even touches them. At first glance, Gorge seems almost stupid—slow, lumbering, and driven entirely by appetite. This is only partly true. The more it eats, the more animalistic it becomes. Feeding dulls whatever mind remains inside it, reducing him to hunger, violence, and the need to consume again. When full, he is at his most reckless and monstrous, tearing through obstacles and bodies with no concern for strategy.

In starvation, his thoughts sharpen enough for patience, recognition, and cruel problem-solving. He watches. He waits. He chooses the easiest meal, the weakest structure, the route that traps the most prey with the least effort. This makes him especially dangerous after long periods without feeding, because the hunger does not weaken him enough to make him harmless; it gives the mind beneath the appetite room to breathe. Gorge came from the Pit, though no one knows whether he was born there, thrown there, or changed into what he is now. Some believe he was once one of countless things that survived by eating whatever the Pit discarded. Others believe the Pit made him as an answer to scarcity: a creature that could endure anything, consume anything, and keep moving no matter how much damage it took.

Now that Cornell has begun to fall, Gorge wanders through cracks, tunnels, and unstable streets, drawn by warmth, fear, blood, and Lux. He is a disaster with a stomach. A moving collapse. A thing so heavy that his arrival feels less like an attack and more like a building deciding to fall in the shape of a body.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Abominable - [i]Ravenous Mass.[/i]
[indent]Gorge’s Abstraction is centered on consumption, durability, and overwhelming physical force. His body is absurdly dense and difficult to kill. Blades sink shallowly or become trapped in meat. Bullets vanish into fat and muscle. Fire burns the surface but struggles to reach anything vital. Broken bones grind back into function through sheer mass and pressure. Even when wounded badly, he can continue moving as long as enough of him remains to drag the rest forward. His strength is monstrous. Gorge can smash through walls, crumple vehicles, tear open doors, and knock over smaller buildings or weakened structures by throwing his full weight into them. He is normally slow, but that slowness is deceptive. When properly motivated, he can launch himself forward in sudden bursts of speed, using his body like a living wrecking ball. These charges are difficult to redirect and devastating on impact, but they are crude; if he misses, the surrounding environment usually suffers instead.

Gorge grows more dangerous the more he eats. Feeding restores damaged tissue, thickens his body, increases his strength, and pushes him deeper into animalistic hunger. A well-fed Gorge is harder to stop physically but easier to bait, distract, or redirect. A starving Gorge is less physically reinforced but far more calculating, capable of stalking prey, avoiding obvious traps, and waiting for victims to corner themselves. His senses are powerful and appetite-driven. He can track blood, body heat, breath, and fear, through walls or across long distances. He is especially drawn to injured targets, frightened groups, and Paranormals whose magic makes them feel “rich” to his hunger. Hiding from him requires more than silence; prey must control breathing, movement, scent, and panic.

Gorge can swallow almost anything organic and some inorganic material if desperate. Flesh strengthens him fastest, but he can chew through wood, bone, drywall, metal, and concrete to clear a path. If trapped, he may eat his way free. If wounded, he may eat nearby bodies or pieces of himself to force regeneration.

Despite his durability, Gorge is not invincible. He is heavy, slow to turn, vulnerable to unstable terrain, and dangerous even to himself when charging blindly. Starving him makes him physically weaker, but mentally sharper. Feeding him makes him stronger, but easier to manipulate through hunger.

The safest strategy is never to fight him in a straight line.

The second safest is to make sure he wants to eat something else.[/indent]
