INKTOBER DAY 25 (TEMPTING): Don’t take the Fascinating Frogfish’s bait! This wide angler tempts the sea’s young, foolish prey. The frogfish dangles an enticing earthen pot, disguised as a decoy fish. When the prey is seduced into a wondrous stupor, this predator gets the ultimate gratification — a quick snack.

INKTOBER DAY 22 (HEIST): The Deceiving Cheese Thieves dare to steal dairy products in the southern Negev Desert. Under a gibbous moon, they stealthily infiltrate cheesemaker shops to forage for fromage. They love moldy and maggot-infested cheeses since those cause delusions and hallucinations when eaten.
Upon completing the heist, the cheese thief smuggles treasure on his back and uses a wipe to clean up traces of evidence at the crime scene. And if threatened, the thief’s touch causes caseation, necrotizing a victim’s flesh into a cheesy goop.

INKTOBER DAY 12 (FORGET): The Forgotten Men are envoys of the Bavel Macrostructure’s Sons of Darkness. Masters of deception and contradiction, they fight to protect Bavel’s lies and never disappoint. They assist the regime’s black ops, and their camera obscuras delete evidence at the scene and fabricate lies.
Frail and lean, they act reserved and restrained. But when attacking, their aura of sin and evil absorbs an target’s energy, lowers brain frequencies and causes amnesia. They force enemies to deny their most deeply held beliefs. Then they muzzle witnesses and render them speechless.
Some people think that the Forgotten Men only pretend to be obedient to the regime. Still, they bring calamity and oblivion wherever they go. Bargain for your life if you ever see one.
