Crawlers
[image]

Height: Not Available
Mass: Not Available

Powers:
- Acid: The Crawlers are somehow able to produce a thick acidic liquid, leaving it on the surfaces they touch.
- Spores: The Crawlers reproduce A-sexually by creating seed-like spores on their leaves. When disturbed, they will drop the spores, allowing them to crawl across the landscape, burning anything they touch with acid, until growing into another adult Crawler to repeat the process.

Weaknesses: None

First Appearance: The Navy vs. The Night Monsters (1966)

Human Kills: 7
Fight Record: None

Home World: Earth
Origin: Antarctica
Type: Natural

History: Thriving in the frozen ice of Antarctica, a terrible species of plant waited to be discovered. Once discovered by a group of American scientists, they were to be shipped back to the states. On route, the creatures thawed out, successfully making the plane crash on the small Gull Island Naval base. Everyone onboard, except the pilot, was dead or missing, and the murderous plants were now free to roam the island paradise. While one of the plants were discovered in the wreckage and gathered for study by the base’s scientist, the others began to stalk the area.

While disturbances began to plague the base, including missing guards and a trashed warehouse, the base began to tighten its security. More and more were killed, and soon the creatures destroyed their only way of power, leaving the island completely isolated. More Molotov cocktails were whipped up, along with bonfires, to defend the base against the unavoidable attack.

With smaller pod-like plants starting to enter the base and burn whatever they touch, a small group ran across the nest. Burning several of the acidic plants with fire bombs, the other Crawlers began to move onto the base. An army of walking vegetation, they threatened to destroy everything living on the island, that is until a squad of bombers began to drop their payloads on the marching plants. As flames raced to the heavens, the threat the Crawlers possessed may have been ended, but it would never be forgotten.
