Denebian Stalker

Suddenly, the animator suffered a fatal heart attack, and the cartoon peril was no more.

Denebian Stalkers are vicious, viscous monsters made of a jelly-like substance. They use their tentacles to grasp victims and drag them into their slavering maws.

Kinda like being eaten by a big old booger.

Fiction

Island of Fear

The following summarizes one or more multipath adventures. Details vary depending on the paths taken in-story. See the book's page for information on alternate paths.

Dirge brought a Denebian Stalker with him when he attempted to drill into the volcano on the South Pacific island of Nali and use its energy to power Decepticon weapons. The creature was used as a sentry to take care of invaders like Beachcomber and you, who attempted to sneak into the base. Beachcomber saw the Denebian Stalker sneaking up on you and took the laser-drill, taking aim...

Being a multipath adventure, the story at this point can end one of three ways depending on your choice.

1. You stood perfectly still, trusting that Beachcomber wouldn't shoot his human friend. Indeed, he was aiming at the Denebian Stalker, and destroyed the beast.
2. You, fearing that the new alien robot friend had turned to evil, dodged to the side only to leap right into the beam as Beachcomber fired. Dead dead die dead.
3. You used the jamming device that had been created to stop Dirge's plans on the laser-drill, stunning Beachcomber. Unfortunately, this gave the Denebian Stalker plenty of time to sneak up and devour you, with the only hope being that you would give it the worst case of indigestion it ever had! Island of Fear

Notes

• No, really, the last line of ending #3 is "The most that you can hope is that you will give it indigestion!"
