CHECK OUT THE new one!!!

Gastrosnaps are a CLOSED SPECIES, which means they may not be made with permission from me, Skelefrog .

They can be obtained through adoption sales, auctions, OTA/DTA contests, MYO events, and customs.
Keep in mind that they are Halloween-themed, so their designs should reflect that!

GASTROSNAPS are big, amphibious critters that tend to pop up around Halloween time.

They are quadrupedal and built round for maximum snuggle potential. While they are all unique in personality and vary in temperaments, they are known for their comfort around humans and general puppy-like demeanor. Not very good as pets due to their destructive and slimy nature, but are very loyal as companions.
They can be referred to by any pronoun, but they are agender and cannot reproduce.

Because of the temperature-sensitivity of the slime, they tend to enjoy fall weather the most and are most active during it; the cool and dry weather is perfect to keep their gel solid, but not frozen. Summer will cause excess drippage, meaning they're losing more sugar and nourishment than they should; too much heat will melt the slime right off. Before winter, they store as much sugar as they can before finding a place to hide. They will eventually freeze and hibernate until the winter is over. They can come out any time they'd like, but usually late summer is optimal.

The slime that collects around their stomach, throat, and tail are a liquefied and congealed sugary substance. To produce this, they need to ingest large amounts of sugar, in which they earn their notorious nature for hoarding and eating candy en masse, but if not available, anything will do. Anything. In addition, their bones, teeth, and claws are crystallized sugar. The outer layer of the slime is protected by a flexible layer of skin. It is penetrable with force, but isn't recommended as it hurts the Gastrosnap. Under that is liquid slime, the jellied sugar substance. The further into the slime, the more acidic and toxic the substance becomes. By the time you reach the organs, acid burns are likely to occur. The slime itself is super-saccharine to the point where it isn't very appetizing at all and rather toxic. Good as emergency energy, but ingestion is a bad idea.

They can come with a wide variety of traits, some common ones listed above. Typically, the color of the slime is accentuated by the body, so their bodies should not be overbearing in markings or colors. Other than that, any colors are possible! Other possible features include bioluminescence, magical abilities, multi-colored slime, non-halloween themes, living creatures in slime, etc. There are also illegal features, most of which are prohibited by the anatomy itself. Fur and feathers will never be found on them unless they're trinkets/accessories, and they can never have no slime, because that means they're dead!*

*(With the exception of zombies, of course, but that's a whole other topic.)

In short, they're big slimy Halloween puppies that eat a lot of candy and like to sleep.
