PLANETARY GLORT - TIMELINE #6924005
🕑 Added 2025-03-05 15:35:18 +0000 UTC(Timeline Tuesday #188)
One of the largest timeline travelers we have encountered in our reality is the planetary glort, an enormous, biological creature that gets its name due to the fact that it is roughly the size of a small planet. These creatures do not move through timelines by any natural ability of cosmic manipulation, but through a natural sense of where celestial timeline tears have already occurred. After identifying these tears, the planetary glort can use them for travel.
Planetary glorts vary in appearance, featuring a number of different textures or colors across their massive, spherical surface. They have been observed with spots, stripes or fully colored in a flat hue. These enormous orbs have no apparent eyes or ears, although it is believed that these organs do exist, just small and hidden somewhere down on the surface of the planetary glort's body. What is visible, however, is their enormous circular mouth. This orifice is lined with long, sharp teeth.
Despite their colossal size and frightening appearance, planetary glorts do not attack humans, nor do they care much about any smaller creatures. They tend to roam the timelines in search of prey that can match their enormous mass, like space whales or cosmic jellies. Anything else is simply too small for them to notice, and while they may cause harm due to this lack of awareness (a spaceship accidentally slipping into their natural path, for instance) there has never been an account of planetary glorts causing direct, intentional harm to smaller humanoid creatures on any timeline.
