PRU Ten Most Wanted Slasher

Slasher demons are parasites committed to killing. A dark ritual is cast over a pregnant woman, which in turn creates the seed that will be a Slasher Demon. The Slasher Demon will grow with the host but ultimately is triggered by a violent event. The Slasher Demon creates a hulking, monstrous body known as a Demonic Slasher and goes on a killing spree. If it should be destroyed, the Demon within hops from body to body until it finds another blood relative to recreate its body (even if's a corpse!).

DESCRIPTION

Quote: None. Demonic Slashers don't speak.
Stalking Grounds: Camp grounds, lakes, and any place that teenagers hang out.
Physical Description: Demonic Slashers are born horribly deformed as a result of the ritual that creates them. Pathetically, they cover their faces whenever possible with some kind of headgear, be it a hood, a mask, or even a sack with a hole in it.
Cravings: Demonic Slashers loathe sexual activity, perhaps because it reminds them of their own forsaken birth. They have a particular dislike of teenagers and will gleefully chop them up in weird and inventive ways.
Behavior: Demonic Slashers are killing machines. Most have a limited intellect and have difficulty grasping complex strategies. They are definitely motivated by memories of their childhood, however, and even react to images of their parents...if only hesitating for a moment. Sometimes, that's enough.
Danger: Demonic Slashers don't have arguments. They don't worry about getting arrested or what will happen to their family. They're not concerned about self-preservation or the damage that could be inflicted on their (sometimes temporary) bodies. They just live to kill, and kill to live. As a result, they are dangerous all the time. There's no happy ending when a Demonic Slasher comes to town.
Tactics: Guns. Lots of guns. Failing that, making the Demonic Slasher think of his parents (probably his mother), will sometimes confuse them. Bazookas also do a good job of giving them pause. For a little while, anyway. Even destroying a Demonic Slasher is nearly impossible, as they can regenerate from scraps. Supposedly, there's some magical knife out there that will do the trick, but the PRU does not put any faith in such mystical nonsense. If necessary, switch to small nukes.
