The average Fluffy Wambler, or 'Flufficus Dismerberimus', consists of a mixture of steel, water and an unidentified material, which shall hereforth be known as 'blubber'. This 'blubber' is a rubbery material, consisting of thousands of cells which can reform to absorb their prey and digest them internally. On the ouside of the 'Flufficus Dismemberimus' is a coating of what can only barely be referred to as 'fur', as it has the same properties of hardness as steel, or an erect elf.

In conclusion, the Fluffy Wambler's almost-invincible 'blubber' and steely 'fur' make it a formidable opponent, with a mind bred for killing and an insatiable hunger for flesh.
Well, it would be a killing machine, if it had a mouth or limbs.

One per month they develop gonads and an ovipositor which are all external, after stabbing them into a corpse or a living organisms eyes the gonads detach and behave as their own organism for several months, using the ovipositor as a proboscis. Further research concludes this is similar to the life cycle of certain starfish, whos larval stage lives within another larval creature/twin whom lives after the seperation as a coral like polyp.

Game hardness:
Easy Elf
Normal Goblin
Hard Dwarf
Titanic Fluffy wambler

A great tremor shakes the land as the wambler tide sweeps over it, 1 inch high and fuzzy. Living organisms in their path dragged down into the mass and subsumed. The gates of the dwarven hold close, but it is not enought.
They come
The gates break and all run down the deeps.
They come
the food storage area has been eradicated, the nobles devoured and the survivors flee into the caverns.
THEY COME!!!

Meh, I like to live dangerously. Besides... small fluffy animal, easily underestimated? Sounds like a decent analogue to me.

Fluffy wamblers seem docile enough to me.

I believe the next step of the Colossi-Wambler relations should be used thusly: A line of dwarves accelerates a wambler down the line (200 or so) throwing it to the dwarf in front until we have a wambler, moving at a fraction of light speed.
