A small, carnivorous vermin roams in the desolate astroids belts in deep space. It is small in stature and spread across the many rocks. Its mind is primal and only seeks out substinance to survive and reproduce. Hunting is performed by blindly chasing out for prey. When found, venomous claws help bring down larger targets. Then, flesh is stripped and consumed by a tiny, expandable mouth. The minute monstrosities reproduce through a bizzare asexual means best likened to that of mitosis. The body undergoes a rapid state of cellular division in which another Slom is generated and separated. The procedure is harsh and leaves a lasting scar along the back.

History:

Slom was one of those things I drew when very, very young. While it changed a lot, it was the same little beast in the end. Its sized ranged from microscopic to towering to an inch. Its fat headed orange state was replaced, with an overhaul by my brother, by a long necked draconic fiend of sorts. This "gifted" form was dwelled upon for a good many years. However, in the 4th Generation, the way things were got restored, and I went back to Slom classic -- tiny, orange, and birthed from my mind.
