Pile of fat; or, is viscera the same thing as fat?

Pile of fat; or, is viscera the same thing as fat?

Hi everyone, I'm new to the wiki and am hoping to get involved as soon as I can, so I want to make sure the idea I have would be a welcome addition.

My idea is a sentient pile of human fat/viscera, that will seek out people for the purpose of adding their body fat to its own mass, usually by forcing its way down their throat or tearing through their naval.

I don't really know much about how body fat works, and am currently doing some research into the subject, but I just want to know if anyone would be willing to give me tips for how to portray this in the actual article, or if this should be written at all.

Thank you, and I hope to hear from people soon :).

While your idea is really strong in terms of imagery, I have to point out that there are some superficial similarities with RPC-920 — do not take this as a discouragement to work on your article, merely a warning that you may have to develop it in a different direction than originally anticipated.

Other than that, I'm not sure exactly what would you want to understand better about fat: the biological processes behind its creation? Its nutritional contents? Smell?

First of all, thank you for pointing out RPC-920.

Secondly, I guess what I'm trying to figure out is where it collects the most in the human body, like if it just sits in the abdomen and creates a paunch or if it also attaches itself to internal organs, because the latter especially would effect how the thing is rated on the "how much will this kill you" scale.

Just wanted to add, I may try to come up with a different idea, as RPC-920 feels like it handled the general concept with a lot more nuance and creativity. Thank you regardless for your efforts to help me.
