This cocky monster is going to catch these mandibles, just as soon as I manage to get a hook on him. The strange thing is how he was able to enter and exit my gravity domain so easily… Is it a question of mass? True, he's thin as an anorexic stick on an Atki...

The mutation wagon stops for no ant! With one choice locked in it's time to go for the next one, and I think I have the just the thing. I thought about it when I was considering my last upgrade, namely my Vestibule. I haven't wanted to upgrade this organ since I'm out of range ...

The thing about Golgari is that they're totally covered in stone. It's easy to forget it sometimes, since the rock moves and shifts along with their movements, as if it were a part of them. Scratch that, it is a part of them, just not something they were born with. I'v...

Granin and I end up sitting facing each other. Though in my case 'sitting' is more of a comfortable crouch, which brings us fairly close to eye level. Although again, in my case I technically have a heck of a lot of eyes.
