Had an idea for a monster of the week:
The Skittler
Tentative threat level: Wolf
At a glance: A man-height bag of skittles with hairy legs is rumored to wander about aimlessly in thinly populated areas.
Behavior: When it encounters someone it yells "TASTE THE RAINBOW!" and shoots skittles out of the opening in the top toward the mouth of whoever it sees until they eat at least one of each color. If attacked, will increase the velocity of the skittles before fleeing if the attacker is not deterred. If pushed into a corner, may attempt the fold against the attacker's face to suffocate them.
Strength/Toughness: High durability against blunt attacks, and because there are no jagged seams on the wrapper it's also pretty tough to tear by hand. Bladed weapons somewhat effective, but may just slide off if there's nothing to brace the cut against (it would fold along with the hit to reduce damage). The legs appear to be humanoid, but upon closer inspection are actually made of the same plastic material as the rest of the creature. Minimal attack-power, though getting pelted in the face with skittles eventually gets annoying. It can jump, squirm, and run to escape dedicated assailants pretty effectively.
Mysterious Ability: Someone who eats a lot of the skittles may become addicted.
