Point is, this viscid monster doesn't live in a village. It's an atomized monad which can survive because the people around him are rarely assed to even glance at the face of your neighbor, of your surrounding human fauna. Whose ability of threat assessment has been fried by hypersociality or cultural brainwashing.
It's a predator hiding in an urbanite environment. Using for mimesis and cover, the social chaos created by modern artificial conditions.
