Dawnbreakers

Information:

Dawnbreakers are parasitic beasts that forcefully or sometimes peacefully bond themselves to any living organism from plants to even deities in some cases, unlike most other beasts, Dawnbreakers have an equal intelligence to mortals as they are able to speak, think and even manipulate, however one interesting thing Dawnbreakers can’t do is imagine. 

Many beast hunters and beastologists claim Dawnbreakers while powerful, are able to be influenced by their “Bonded’s” emotions as they feed upon them, for example if a Bonded is extremely angry The Dawnbreaker will feel and “Change” due to this emotion, however it has been noted that with a longtime bond this ability weakens. As mentioned before Dawnbreakers do not have the ability to imagine, however if they connect to a mortal or above host they are able to use the imagination of their bonded in order to create weapons like guns, swords and even bombs. 

While many tales boast of the wonders of being bonded to a Dawnbreaker there are also many different dangers, for example if a Dawnbreaker bonds to a weaker host they will be able to cause brain death within their bonded which grants them complete control over the body, however Dawnbreakers can not stop the stages of decay and eventually the body will turn to dust. In order to survive a Dawnbreaker must feed on the blood of their Bonded, however if the bond is equal The Dawnbreaker seemingly replaces the blood with a black substance that does the same job, but the substance is a part of The Dawnbreaker making it extremely difficult to separate the two beings from each other later.

Different Dawnbreakers:

Blastbreakers- are Dawnbreakers that were used by The Collective during The Cosmic Crusades to battle against beasts like Spectres, Therianthropes and so on. Due to their bond with The Collectives War Suits, these Blastbreakers are able to project powerful energy blasts from their body in a similar manner to the war suits cannons.   

Demobreakers- are Dawnbreakers that have been bonded to Demons, because of this unholy bond The Dawnbreaker is driven insane and their intelligence is completely shattered, due to this, Demobreakers do not seek to bond to subject, however they devour a subject from the inside outside and then use the feed on what remains of the body while using it.

Fleshbreakers- are Blastbreakers that bonded to a piece of The Walking Flesh, during “The War of Cold Flesh”, The Walking Flesh commanded the collective soldier under her control to pass their Dawnbreakers onto her fleshlings, once they did this The Dawnbreaker were forced by The Walking Flesh to serve, this rendered The Dawnbreaker brain dead, however The Blastbreakers ability to project energy stayed and The Walking Flesh used The Collectives own weapons against them.
