Hello, hello again my fellow Arkians! I bring before you today another creature suggestion based on a creepy crawly. However! This one is lovable. 😊 Take a look!

About the Egg:

The Plushorp egg is surprisingly soft for an egg, but they're still fragile. It's best to keep these creatures out of a young one's reach, lest they accidentally mistake the egg for a plushie.

About the Creature:

Once the Plushorp hatches, it is still very fragile. It lives in a beanbag-like state as it explores its youth. These creatures take on a similar fragility to newborn humans, being oddly squishy and soft. As they grow, their exterior shell begins to form and harden. When they reach the adult stage, they do not form hard exteriors like most insect-related creatures, but they are soft and plush-like, yet still durable. One study has shown that young Arkians who grew up with the Plushorp as their first creature to take care of later went on to become entomologists.

Height: 0.3m
Weight: 4.61lbs
Habitat: Unknown

@redflipflap
I love it, Sarah!! What a squishy baby! The lil button eyes falling off... :,)
This color palette is giving me Plushie Buzz. 🧡💙 (I chose a Green Buzz as my first Neopet. 🥹)

I love lil creepers and plushies, so this is a win. c:

"It lives in a beanbag-like state as it explores its youth."
Same. *as I sit here like a melting potato on the couch lol soon to fuse and become one with the couch... a Couchy, if you will... yes... that's me in there...*

"As they grow, their exterior shell begins to form and harden."
Same.

Thank you for the ping! I always love your suggestions and descriptions. :-)

@redflipflap you quite literally dont understand how much I *need* this thing, red. like seriously it is the cutest thing in the world. I think all of April should be the prank-like creatures like the Yorm and this, and the Couchy.

I demand it in my cove stage 2 frozen at ONCE

redflipflap • 19 October 2023 at 7:21 PM
