He's only got four limbs...but then, bilateral symmetry does offer extra parts to pull out...
But I suspect he's behind the slew of short-lived celebrity marriages that are inflicted on ALL of us...
So if you'd be kind enough tp leave something of the little maggot, at the cellular level, for me...I've got this industrial agitator of broken glass and battery acid that I can run an electrical current through, before I pour in the napalm...

Here's a something I put over on the Sploogies starship thread. I'm posting this here, where it's appropriate!
How about Lunitoonicryth? The master of strange and demented bio-borgs and bio weapons.

"As you will it, your Grace."

Okay...something officially WEIRD is going on....over the weekend, with our forums down, I had, at some point actually CONSIDERED an idea like that...
Which means, so help me god, that I may have developed some sort of telepathic link to this thread....(soundtrack from 'The Twilight Zone' starts playing)

There may be a way to save Taalismn! We must take him out and get him really drunk! I mean blind stinking drunk. Then we tell the "Spanish Inquisition" about him. I mean nobody expects them! I'm sure they start him off in the comfy chair!

Oh great...don't you people know what happens when you get a Splugorth snookered and shickled?
Drunk, hung-over, red-eyed, itching for a cigerette?
I think the Horror Factor goes up 150%...
"What happens in Splynn, Stays in Splynn!"

Remember, Splugorth could also use Horrific Illusion for makeup...
I'd also say lots and lots of spiked collars and chains, too...
Maybe a head/eyeball cage if he's really feeling fetishistic...

Head-cage...heavy collar with bars sprouting up to encase the head...The Inquisition and the pre-1900's slave trade and American correction institutes(as well as, sadly, mental institutes of the time).
Nowadays such items are of interest only to the historian or the heavy metal BDSM crowd...
Splugorth lack heads, so an 'eye cage'...

Recount:
Okay, so we have the canonical Splugorth, and we have specialized('themed') Splugorth...as well as a general body of Generic Baddie Splugorth(i.e. Cannon Fodder for Cosmoknights)...
We also have a new wave of up-and-comers who are trying to move into established territories and ideas and make them their own(techno-weapons, newscasting, goth death-metal music, modern medicine, etc...)
Any other ideas?
Anyone for Splugorth Theme Parks?

This is also a good time for the next ad.
:::Having trouble removing those troublesome spots from your shorts! Try Cosmic Whiteout! It removes those troublesome spots from embarrassing places. And if you have a smell to go with that spot try Cosmic Scented version of cosmic whiteout and your short will smell as fresh as they look!
Warning! Do not use Cosmic Whiteout near any extra-dimensional beings. They might think you are tasty and delicious. Also do not use if you any allergies to water as water will wash it out!:::

Well, they say the entire planet is temperate and lush...so unless they have a MASSIVE in-ground sprinkler system, I image they use controlled atmospheric precipitation to keep water cycling...

Forget about tornadoes, typhoons, and other destsructive weather types...the Stage Two Prometheans probably just wish the stuff away...

Maybe. But in advanced civilizations might be able to control their own weather. You know rain here and sunshine over there. No really bad weather unless the control system was messed up! (Hint to Tallismn for another story for OmniNews!)

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."
"As you will it, your Grace."

You still have weathermen...they just happen to also draw in good money as Climatic Engineers.

What about a sploogie named.............
WeethrChnlcryth. He is owns and runs a company of planetary climate engineers! He's also owns a little OmniNews stock. (That way they have to broadcast his channels shows.)

Enslaves a lot of Elementals and weather-oriented mages...sends in covert agents to cause climatic destabilization on planets(spread rumors of glopbal warming or imminent ice-age and glaciation) then come in openly and offer services to 'adjust' the climate...maybe hires out his Sunaj and other resources to perform weather-borne acts of economic terrorism on rivals(bad season of frosts wipes out a major fruit crop, pushing up prices...was it the planet's business rivals, or the planet's own government, hoping to hike prices on its major export?).
Known for his floating upper atmosphere 'sky palaces' and 'weatherdromes'.

Also know for his extreme flatulence problem! His gas has changed weather patterns on planets before!

Giant bio-engineered cattle belching out massive amounts of methane...sure to have an effect on planetary weather...combined with ocean-critters that devour carbon-absorbing plankton and keep the stuff from being absorbed into the oceans...

Yep...that might be a sure sign that SOMETHING's up...

Or never had it to begin with....Most of that kind follow the P.T. Barnum School of Social Philosophy..."Suckers; There's One Born Every Minute!"

Nigerian money-smugglers, Naruni weapons system service contracts, and T'Zee timeshares.....avoid them at all costs....

Well, ypu can do things WITH them, just not -with- them....
Like crating them up and mailing them to the Splugorth, for one....
Hmmm...wonder if it would be worth the Splugorths' while to biowizard a T'Zee or group of them, in the process of draining them of their nanotechnology secrets....They could hop them up power-wise and reduce their fertility...or keep the high birth rate and make them more easily controlled...attractive cannon-fodder if a Splugorth doesn't have access to Kydians....
