Editing Beast: The Primordial (section)

== The Insatiable ==

Since Heroes were a bit of an impotent wet fart as antagonists go (and even setting aside the problems with how they're written, mechanically they're just not much of a challenge to the average beast), the ''Conquering Heroes'' sourcebook (ironically) introduced a second set of villains for the gameline.  Descended not from the Dark Mother but her mate, the Primogenitor (and later retconned to be the result of proto-Horrors which never bothered to form a Lair and embody human fears before claiming a human's body), the Insatiables' transformation has rendered them utterly inhuman, imbued with fears from an even-more-primordial time when the planet was hostile to all life, and claiming to be the Beasts' truest kinsfolk.  The Beasts dispute the claim, violently, partly because they feel no kinship to them like the other monsters, partly because they're a bunch of sick fucks and no one wants to be related to ''that'', partly because they kill whenever they feed and never get full and partly because the Insatiable like gatecrashing Beasts' lairs to drain their powers and possess their bodies. 

Did it work?

Well, on the one hand, they're definitely a cut above Heroes in terms of being a Beast character's natural enemies.  On top of their power-stealing, and thus being natural predators-for-the-predators, they can force humans to do their bidding by driving them insane, a process called a "Schism," and turn into their giant monster shapes whenever they want rather than while in lairs.  And they're divided by element-themed Moments rather than Families.

On the other hand, their examples are a "scary" unattractive gamer girl/Internet troll named "Null Snyper" who pushes her victims to suicide, a [[Golem|lava golem]] called "the Authority" (no relation to the WWE), and The Blind Man, who must be read about to be believed:

<blockquote>''"The Blind Man's blotted clothing is as result of a thick trail of what resemble fish eggs progressively leaking from his navel, urethra, and anus. Particularly around his navel area, a coagulated mass of pink and black eggs comes forth when the Blind Man strains his abdominal muscles. Horrifyingly, the Blind Man has from time to time passed these eggs off as salmon roe or sturgeon caviar, as they bear a sour, fishy odor. Those who consume his “produce” have their fertility dramatically increased, and gradually produce their own eggs in a similar fashion to the Blind Man, the only difference being that mortal-produced eggs possess a coat of thin white fur. This invariably drives the afflicted unfortunates insane, as they cannot stop the egg production, resulting in self-destructive harm. The Blind Man believes that by participating in the birthing, they increase the speed at which the Primogenitor will be reborn."'' --Night Horrors: Conquering Heroes</blockquote>

Yes, it's basically saying that he pisses, shits, and cums fish eggs, and tricks people into eating them so they also piss, shit, and cum fish eggs. Truly a creation even [[/d/]] would be hard-pressed to appreciate. 

And that's just their fluff. [[Derp|Their crunch is an absolute clusterfuck]] since they use Satiety faster than they could possibly gain it- the only way they could use their own powers is by either Storyteller fiat or the presence of a virtually endless number of lesser Beasts they kill offscreen. It's obvious that an editor was never involved either, since their rules reference non-existent Tilts and are written so vaguely it's hard to tell what their powers actually ''do''.

=== Insatiable Moments ===
As previously stated, the Insatiable are divided among "Moments" rather than Families. A Moment represents different aspects and terrors drawn from moments in time outside written history. From the ice age to the vacuum of space. The book says they aren't limited to primordial eras, though. Giving an example of an Insatiable of Molten Earth projecting the feelings of violence and hatred for fellow human beings, while a Freezing Hell may cause people in the area to become obsessed with hoarding food and possessions in preparation for the apocalypse.

===Clashing Faults===
Earth elementals, cave shelters that collapse without warning, mountains crumbling before earthquakes. Essentially stone cold assholes that brutalize then devour their victims. They like everything being in caves, valleys, or underground, especially if it makes it easier to suffocate people.

===Freezing Hell===
ICE! ICE! MORE ICE! They're not just about the creatures under and over the ice, but the starvation and exposure animals go through in desperate search of food and warmth in an otherwise barren land of ice. Every FH is literally ice cold, from their touch to their blood temperature. They're the most likely to actually store their victims in ice boxes and freezers.

===Molten Earth===
Your classic magma boys. They love fire, heat, and how billions of years ago the world was made of molten rock, waterfalls of molten lead, and molten hot pockets. As expected, they're hot tempered, violent, and very good at cooking in the kitchen. They're pyromaniacal sadists with a fetish for burns, kindling, and charred husks.

===Primordial Seas===
Believing their founder to have been a giant jellyfish, these guys like to think they're Makara but better. Much like a college teen, they suffer disproportionate amounts of anxiety, hate resting, and become paranoid as fuck. And, much like the classical college student, they will strike first at the nearest source of food to show dominance over the rest of their kind. They apparently feel the effects of hunger more keenly than their "siblings," and get violent when feeding.

===Void===
The black sheep of black sheep, the Void are black holes, unknown distances, and the terror of infinity. They like Cthulhu, sci-fi, inter-dimensional conspiracies, and the idea of sucking people's brains out with bendy straws.
