Eyesquito

[Back to creatures]

One might mistake an infant Eyesquito for a common mosquito with an oddly white body. Adult Eyesquitos, though, are unmistakable. Ranging in size from an apple to a melon, Eyesquitos look like disembodied floating eyeballs. At the base of what appears to be the optic nerve, large dragonfly wings hum a horrid melody. The membrane that resembles the optic nerve twists and curls to appear just beneath the eye, but it is tipped in a jagged proboscis that the Eyesquito uses to drink its victim dry… first of its eye jelly, then of its blood.

Eyesore

Even more horrifying than a lone Eyesquito is a swarm of the foul creatures. Known as an Eyesore, a swarm of Eyesquitos can whip itself into a deadly frenzy.

Eyesquito Egg Sac

Eyesquitos prefer to reproduce in hot, humid climates like swamps and jungles, but all that they really need in order to reproduce is decaying animal matter and some standing water. Eyesquito egg sacs laid in such environments will hatch hundreds of Eyesquito larvae over the course of 1d4 weeks.
