General Overview
Conglomerates are the amalgamation of two or more unique broken Chymojewels into one creature. When two or more Willows/Companions who have passed in close proximity attempt to reform using their last remaining Willpower, the influence of a Willow with strong Condemnation magic can allow them to create horrifically malformed creatures who don't have a concrete shape.
Conglomerates are NOT a natural occurrence, and thus are seen few-and-far-between. In fact, there's only four known sightings/reports of these creatures ever seen in Willanova. It is one of the few crimes recognized by the Scientific Community.
Appearance
Conglomerates are well known for their ghostly appearance, thin ears, and X’d out mouths. They also take the look of the species that its fusing.
We got our knowledge by observing known sightings
Slug
She/HerA playful Puptual spirit, possibly mixed with an Acacia Willow. She is very social and will approach if seen.
Calamity
They/It/Any
Two shy spirits, one an Arroyo Willow, and one a Pinyon Willow, quite the unlikely pair. No one knows who exactly it used to be. We do not have pictures at this time, as this one was created after @Draven and @Mothra exited Sulow.
Creation
Conglomerates were discovered a few years ago by the previous Scientific Community leaders: @Draven and @Mothra. This endeavor was shamed and disgusted by other Scientific members that it led to @Draven and @Mothra being banished by the mayors to the outskirts, the Conglomerates sent with them.
Beforehand, @Draven and @Mothra were forced to swear that they’d never create more of these beings, as it’s theorized by the recent Scientific Community members that these creatures feel large amounts of harm. That is not the case: conglomerates are generally seen as passive despite having grand amounts of power.
Nature
Conglomerates act like Willows of their own oftentimes, however they do not need to eat or sleep. They also have a lack of communication, often just making whirring noises or slight purrs/humming.
Understanding about Conglomerates conclude that they can’t naturally be harmed unless their jewels were properly put to rest by Pinyon scholars, but since they were also banished by the mayors into the Outskirts – and most scholars see them as crimes – that is not any Pinyon’s priority.
Culture
Since the discovery of Conglomerates, Sulow has felt a great bit of fear regarding its outer-state lines, but they’ve been adapted as myths or legends for some Willow parents to startle their children with. These rumors has also made searching a bit more difficult, as the “whirring” noises they’re known to make are common nature whistles and whisps.
Conglomerates are also sometimes made as Sulow's Eve costumes, since they are quite easy to make. But elaborate decorations and chimes are also adapted for the harvest season.
