Description

Never confuse a bloody berry with a tomato and even less with the cute, harmless creature, it appears to be. Its stubby legs are not meant to run but to stand and lurk; its tiny teeth grew to be pushed into the flesh of the living. While the bloody berry patiently waits, it watches and drills its empty glare into the souls of its victims. Nobody knows where it comes from and no one can tell what it wants – like a parasite it gorges through the world and feeds on those who are unlucky enough to be chosen to suffer. A bloody berry is cautious but highly aggressive and attacks anything getting too close. The only creatures this grim creation accepts in its vicinity are others of its kind and it is not too uncommon for a bunch of bloody berries to hunt as a well-coordinated group – just to turn on each other once their game has succumbed.
