Gorf Hasart

If you plug your nose, it's honestly kind of cute!
~Libra Eugnot
The Gorf Hasart is the first viable variation of the Gorf Da'ot family to come from the Gorf Initiative. Originally, it was thought to have too many mutations from the original to be a success; however, it quickly proved doubters wrong.

Physical Features

  • Large eyes that are mostly pupil
  • Long, slender, almost feline tail
  • Four sharp, venomous teeth for piercing and tearing.
  • Long tongue that projects out quickly
  • Amphibious skin with an odor to it
  • Total of 6 legs
  • Skin comes in shades of green and purple

From Death to Life

At first, the Gorf Hasart was thought to be very fragile and easily killed. They would either refuse to eat or bury their food and dig it up days later before eating it. With time and experimentation, it was realized that these Gorf prefer rotting food and would rather starve than eat fresh or live food. Unlike other gorf, they did not hunt bugs or small fish. As they matured and ate more rotting food, they began to smell like the rot they were consuming. Initially, Libra thought they could use the gorf just to help reduce food and plant waste. This use was not particularly amazing, but it was a use nonetheless. With time, it was discovered that when the gorfs would pass their own waste, it was a perfect compost for gardens and farming. It is better than any manure or fertilizer, and is what makes the Gardens in Harmony so vibrant and healthy. Currently, one can purchase a small amount of the waste when there is extra, but the government hopes to breed many many more, so every farming family can have their own gorf hasart.
