Ridiculously Cute Critter: Difference between revisions

 

== Tabletop Games ==

** Another good example is the [http://www.bogleech.com/mortasheen/schmeep.htm Schmeep], which is the most conventionally "cute" thing in Mortasheen and also one of the few that isn't likely to try and murder you. It is also designed [[Let's Meet the Meat|to be eaten, and take joy in doing so]] [[Grotesque Cute|in order to heal your other monsters]]. Albeit, [[Good Thing You Can Heal|they can regenerate from only a skeleton]], but still

* Meeps from ''[[GURPS]] Illuminati University''.

* The ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' supplement ''Book of Exalted Deeds'' has some [[Our Angels Are Different|very cute celestials]]: the fairylike coure eladrins and the musteval guardinals, who resemble bipedal ferrets. Hollyphants in their small form would also count.

* Wastems and Wastits from [[Human Occupied Landfill]]. Wastems are cute little creatures whose bodies are filled with a tapioca-like substance that can be used for anything from food to motor oil. Wastits are cruel, psychotic, and make most grown men wet themselves in terror if they know what they're dealing with. And the worst part? If you don't have the "spot wastit" skill, you can't tell the difference between the two, even if the wastit is walking away from a bloody corpse with a skull in one hand and a bloody butterfly knife in the other.

* Silvanshee Agathions from [[Pathfinder]], which are basically sapient, [[Neutral Good]], [[Our Angels Are Different|angelic]] ''[[Cute Kitten|kitties]]'' with magical abilities. They're also available as [[familiar]]s.

* ''[[Undertale]]'': Temmie, Lesser Dog, Greater Dog, [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|Flowey]], and the Dreemurr family (just to name a few examples from said game).

* [[Everything's Better With Dinosaurs|Bub and Bob]], the bubble-blowing baby dinosaurs in ''[[Bubble Bobble]]''.

* Several playable characters in ''[[SuperTuxKart]]'' may qualify for this, like Wilber, Hexley, Tux, Kiki and especially Konqi. This also depends on the game version because the sprites have changed slightly over time.

 

* From the ''[[SCP Foundation]]''

** The Puffer kittens ([https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2558-j SCP-2558-J]) are this, because of their cuteness and effect it has on the staff the actually have Euclid classification. Even the O5 Council can't help but love them.

** [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-999 SCP-999], a tiny, bouncy, happy [[Blob Monster]] who loves ''everybody'' and is in turn loved ''by'' everyone. It seems impossible to become angry or annoyed at it. It even managed to make [[The Dreaded|SCP-682]], (the infamous [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent|"Hard-To-Kill Lizard"]]) happy, an emotion SCP-682 had never felt before. Although, this ''might'' be because SCP-682 is SCP-999's sibling; many say that when SCP-999 becomes an adult, it will become the [[Anti-Anti-Christ]] and become [[Beware the Silly Ones|a powerful warrior]] able to defeat its evil father, [[God of Evil|the Scarlet King]].

** [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-131 SCP-131] (the "Eye Pods") are a pair of little guys shaped like teardrops, one yellow and one orange, each with one big eye and the personality of a kitten. They are harmless but curious, seeking affection from any humans they meet. They also have, many times, saved the lives of members of the staff when a dangerous SCP broke free; for instance, once they were able to keep [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-173 SCP-173] occupied by keeping their eyes on it while the guards ran to get help.

* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring-tailed_lemur Ring-tailed lemurs].

* Somewhat surprisingly, many animals in the order [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnivora Carnivora] are this. Apart from those already mentioned, we have [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genet_(animal) genets], meerkats, ferrets, skunks, red pandas, etc.
