About: Creepy Centipedes   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

For many people, spiders are scary and disgusting. For many other people, snakes are scary and disgusting. So, what happens when you put together the two species? In fiction centipedes, caterpillar and similar creatures are sometimes used as a fancy alternative for the everyday Giant Spider or Scary Scorpions, even moreso in eastern fiction. Sometimes, a human-centipede hybrid will appear, usually sporting multiple limbs and venomous bite. In Video Game settings, expect to see it detatch its own body parts and/or cutting one body segment at time, as if it's some kind of organic train. Another apparent power is their ability of curling up like a wheel/ball and roll over their foe.
