The eyepicker is an incredibly tiny but remarkably dangerous creature skilled in the dissection of living and unliving bodies. Originally created to assist with surgical procedures, this mouse-sized, panicky monster is sensitive to the subtlest vibrations, easily mapping the internal layout of a living body with a few taps of its many-jointed digits and flexible trunk. With these unparalleled senses, scalpel-fine talons and powerful anesthetic saliva, a careful enough eyepicker can slice its way into most living organisms and sever select organs, nerves or tendons almost completely unnoticed.
An eyepicker will consume any animal tissues, but craves ocular orbs above all else, swallowing smaller eyes whole while others are sliced open and drained of their fluids. Feral eyepicker are known to take up residence beneath or within the bedding of larger creatures, emerging at night to steal small pieces of their victim.
