The Myxoling displays different behaviors for each head. Each individual shows different personalities, but all heads will share a hungered, eager disposition.
It walks with slow, trudging steps, leaving paths of multicolored goo behind. It can go forwards for backward, but rarely sideways. The dominant head will always lead.
The Myxoling will leave parts of itself underneath chairs, tables, and on sidewalks. These secretions act as landmarks and territorial spots for other Myxoling. Biting down with its teeth, it will knead and pull at its own gum as a form of satisfaction.
The Myxoling’s hunting habits are very similar to that of spiders. Rats, lizards, and other small animals form the Myxoling’s diet. The Myxoling will use its sticky substance to create webbing around places where it finds food. Once it forms a strong enough web, it waits nearby. Whenever prey gets trapped in a web, the Myxoling will use its trunk-like head to fill the other’s body cavity with glue. It will mutate its prey into a wad of sticky red gum from the inside-out. The Myxoling will then devour its meal.
If well fed, both halves of the Myxoling will undergo a transformation. Both halves will grow larger, gaining spiny armor and bulk similar to muscle mass. This ‘mature’ stage will make the Borderling become less sluggish and will provide more energy to find another Myxoling to attach to. On rare occasions, 10 Myxoling will join together into one collective, creating a chaotic bubbling form. If desired, each body will separate into pairs to find more Myxoling.
Impure Myxolings will fight amongst each other for health and dominance. If a completely pure half of the Myxoling overwhelms the other, It will gain a solitary mature and form into a singular body. It’s rare to find a Myxoling with back legs and a tail. The Myxoling will find new partners of the same kind to attach to. If they fail to separate from their impure halves, however, the pure half will succumb to corruption and revert back from its mature stage. Being impure won’t allow the Myxoling to transform once again.
