Named by the villagers for the first victim they ever saw, Umbilical Jenkens is actually a form of intelligent parasite that has been on the planet for a long time. It requires a warm blooded host to survive, and very slowly eats the host alive, thus requiring a new one after some time. While some Umbilical Jenkens are fine with sticking to animals like deer and bears and living alone, some prefer the bodies of humans. Infected humans lose their personality within 24 hours of the arm sized worm-like creature burrowing into their chest. From that point on, the Umbilical Jenkens is in control. The human no longer speaks, and appears almost zombielike in movement. When the monster is ready for a new host, a thick tentacle like appendage up to 9' long bursts from the stomach and captures the new host, hence the creature's name. Instinct: To strangle
