NightTerror - NightShroud's 5th form (LOCKED)

Description

(NOTE: it's an umbilical cord...just in case anybody freaks out, and if they do I'll put a mature filter on it.)

Got bored since I no longer have university work or 3D Studio Max (student license is now expired) and I can't finish any current commissions until my new supplies arrive this week; so I decided to design the fifth form for NightShroud when she eventually reaches past lvl5 in Z-Parasites.

It's still only in developement so I may need to make some changes, but right now I really, really, REALLY like this design. Very grotesque and insidious looking, which suits NightShroud to a 'T' since even her normal symbiote NightRage looks demonic itself. I also like to name each of her forms to match her human title NightShroud; NightEye the parasite, NightShroud herself, NightRage her symbiote-mode...and now NightTerror. :nod:
When it comes to NightShroud I am very much inspired by Gargoyles, since despite all the horror movies/books/shows and popular belief; gargoyles are actually created for good purpose instead of evil intent. They are placed around churches, graves, some temples and other sacred places because they protect those places from evil spirits and such, and the reason why gargoyles are made so hideous and terrifying is so that they can scare evil away (and a lot of them given wings so that they can supposedly chase evil away too if their frightening appearances don't work).

In this form NightShroud grows bigger just like most 5th forms do, but her most noticable growth is in her wing span which doubles in size allowing her to fly at greater distances and even greater heights for much longer (especially with two pairs of lungs now). Her stealth skills are lost but in exchange she gains immense speed and raw strength. She loses almost all of her fur apart from the mane on her neck and her tail, her skin adopts the same markings as her armor and her gem becomes imbedded into her flesh while the rest of her armor just drops off. She has almost two of everything again like most 5th forms but they are misplaced; for example the head on her tail is just a mouth, NightEye's brain, nose, pair of ears and a throat that goes all the way through her tail. The tail's head has no eyes or tongue; instead her new hands on her wings have eyes in the palms and the main head has two tongues in its mouth (which from the side looks like a forked tongue). Also all of her scars and notches vanish in this form and this form only. Her whole body pretty much becomes much more like her parasite's including all the icky pulsing veins and even NightEye's umbilical cord gets exposed...however this proves a big problem; the cord itself alone is choked in blood arteries, one well aimed cut will result in massive blood-loss. Same with the tail; just like Ferus' 5th form Frabies if anything traumatic happens to the tail e.g. cut off, great blood-loss and half of the body will cease to work without NightEye's brain which of course will result in the body having no choice but to revert back to human form.
Another major problem is that this form is more difficult to control than the symbiote even with both brains working together. Because unfortunately even though this body completely heals all of Night's previous scars and notches...it can't heal Night's mood-swings or epilepsy, in fact it amplifies them; so this form is very prone to sudden rabid-like violent episodes and severe seizures.

It'll be a long time before NightShroud reaches lvl5 I think though, so for now this fifth form is locked and still a work in progress since this is just the third concept.
