ok,, so,, hear me out!

radioactive society. due to a specifically hot section of the earth, the soil has collapsed beneath the surface and created some kind of radioactive crater. the lower city is filled with disgusting animals that sort of feed off of it. the highest level is made of not those things. its like zaun and piltover from league of legends lore. not to. bring that into here.

the oc in question, which i have no name for and instead will be referred to as bumfungi, is like a human or maybe werewolf/vampire? whatever they are, they are specifically mostly human with maybe some outlier traits. bumfungi hears rumors of their downstairs neighbors, the radioactive bumcreatures (tm), and wants to explore and learn more about them. on their way down, they meet a rag-tag group of friends and basically form their own little squad. as they reach the lower city portion, they find it overrun with withered machinery and radioactive biofuels that fog and coil in the air.

everyone dies or something and bumfungi gets a weird tumor on their arm or like. stomach or something. it grows, it thrives, it soon get a heartbeat. it tells them to eat. to grow for them. bumfungi is freaked out but finds it kind of cool? in a sick and twisted way of course. however, it is like a symbiotic relationship, they feed off each other and the tumor actually gives them like a 6th sense of danger. and strangely enough, a weird immunity to the radiation. eventually, one morning, bumfungi wakes up to it missing and has a really bad stomach ache. this continues on until one day they find some kind of.. rot? on their body. they feel empty, hollow, but not emotionless, physically. like their an empty shell. they have loss weight, but they still have muscle, they still want to eat. and eat they do!

bumfungi gets into some hot water and is about to be killed- before a mass of guts and pulsing veins bursts out from their side/stomach, literally eating the people alive. it has limbs, formed out of bone and fake muscle. it has gross eyes. its really gross! it can barely speak as if it's vocal cords arent fully... developed. uhm the thing is also sentient! it has a brain, or atleast, a mushy, gross excuse of one. BASICALLY the whole concept is that bumfungi accidentally grew a mass of organs inside of them. it feasted on their own insides, holding them in a limbo of hunger and emptiness, until it needs to protect them. like a symbiote! later down the line, i imagined bumfungi got hurt and maybe lost their jaw, (its a dog-eat-dog world) forcing them to wear some kind of jaw-only gasmask that held their upper jaw and mouth still yk. together. picture subspace from phighting, yk? i'd imagine they could have conversations with the little .. idk. flessh demon inside of them once it grew enough to have vocal cords. theyd definitely have a conversation like:

. . .

bumfungi stitching up the whole in their stomach from the flesh demons last physical outburst:

" thats the last time youre doing that. "

' wait why :[ '

" it hurts, and plus, my mouth is always open.. just like, crawl out of that instead? it'd hurt less. "

' but thats small, '

" and youre fat? cool. "

' fine. '
