Bulbous Grendel
The Bulbous Grendel was the original grendel in Creatures 2. It was ugly, slow, and dumb as rocks - in stark comparison with the norns, which were cute, nimble, and dumb as rocks. (see OHSS).
The Bulbous Grendels lived in the old volcano and stood virtually no chance of survival. To the left there was an airlock for the sub, which the grendels could walk into and drown themselves. To the right there was a long drop into the volcano, which was highly radioactive and slowly destroyed their bone marrow. If they got out of that there was a 'swamp' that had many poisonous Deathcap Mushrooms.
When breeding norns in Creatures 2, the player rarely encounters Grendels.
Modifications and Conversions
