Takes place before the events of "Pressure"
| Wall Dwellers are humanoid monsters lacking arms with a set of flat plate-like coverings on its front to camouflage into walls, covering the front part of its knees, thighs, chest, forehead and eyes, and also jaw. Wall Dwellers have no discernible eyes or other bodily features, besides human-like mouths with split lower jaws and sharp teeth. The exposed backside of Wall Dwellers are riddled with small, acid-spewing holes, which may be potentially triggering to people with Trypophobia. |
| Wall Dwellers almost always hunt alone. On their backside, they have many acid-spewing holes, though they are not for defense or combat, but instead to allow the acid to melt a Wall Dweller-shaped hole into a wall to allow the Wall Dweller to fit inside of it, and when combining the plate-like coverings, they can blend in almost completely. |
| Despite a Wall Dwellers lack of arms, they put all of their strength into their legs, allowing them to be used akin to a kangaroo, just without the jumping. They typically wait until their prey passes by, before slowly and quietly pulling themselves out of the wall, before slowly approaching their target, making quiet footsteps in the process. When the time is right, the Dweller strikes, using their legs to kick and break their victims legs, and pushing them onto the ground where they will then bite the neck of their victim, and two bites is all it takes until their victim is dead, allowing for an easy meal. |
| Of course, all animals come with a weakness or more, and the Wall Dwellers are no exception. Wall Dwellers, despite the strength in their legs, are relatively weak everywhere else, and simply taking one off guard and beating one to death with your fists is enough to put it down for good. This reason is exactly why Wall Dwellers are ambush predators, as well as the fact that simply turning around to face it once it's close enough is enough for it to squeal and run away. |
