"Pug Bat"

CLASS: Mutation

One of several varieties of hunting-bat engineered by intelligent vampires, these creatures are bred completely immune to vampirism as they may otherwise compete with their masters for blood.

The most popular guard-beast in vampire communities, this gorilla-sized bat is both blind and flightless, but an impressive leaper and climber for its bulk with a sonar system that can map out the very circulatory system of its prey. It always aims its hefty claws directly for an intruder's heart, though many owners hate to waste potential food and must carefully train their Bullysnag to attack the kneecaps.

Bullysnag fully comprehend most languages but communicate only by grunting "uh-uh" in their deep, rumbling voices, used confusingly enough as both a positive and negative response.

"...so here's the plan. Are you listening, Bully?"

"Uh-uh. (I'm all ears, boss!)"

Sorry, couldn't resist! xD

Are those dark things actually holes in its face?

Anyway, have you ever thought of making something like a vampire Mortasheen based on a hookworm?

Ah yes, Dougal Dixon's giant wingless bats...

Speaking of vampires, I'm surprised you didn't make a candiru vamp.

It was kinda too specific; I tried to only make a different vampire for an entire group of fish (candiru is part of the catfish family) otherwise I'd feel obligated to make hundreds of them and that would get too nuts.

However, I have the candiru written down as a rare and devastating weapon in the Mortasheen game concept.
