Author: lemme
Release: 2024
Entity Number: 5-ID
Habitat: Majority (On every night-themed Level)
Description:
The Big Jaw is a large humanoid hunting entity that stands up to three meters tall or even more, this entity is known as a nocturnal hunter and has become well known for its creepy appearance. The entity gets its name from the striking jaws on its face, where there is only a lipless jaw on the face. Entities can only be found in dark places at various levels and live in a solitary state, the presence of very bright lights such as flashlights and lights is quite disliked by them and they will try to avoid them. Big Jaws are one of the many entities that are the cause of the loss of many survivors in the darkness of a level plus the effort to counterattack them is considered quite difficult, currently many survivors choose to carry lighting made from Lamp Moss as a means of repelling Big Jaws attacks.
Behaviors:
The Big Jaws are known for how they give nightmares to survivors who are in dark places, they will blatantly attack survivors instead of using the darkness level as a disguise tool to ambush. They are persistent hunters and will keep chasing their target until they get it, but they will stop if the target has entered a lighted area. They will also actively travel around the level in search of prey no matter if it is a human target or not, even this also makes their appearance quite often seen hunting other entities. The existence of Big Jaws can be recognized by how they sound and move, their voice sounds like a baby's cry which is quite loud and their movements are like a wooden doll that shakes so survivors should leave if they hear or see the shadow of this entity.
Biology:
The Big Jaw does not have any features on its face other than its jaw which widens from the left to the right side of the face to form a wide smile. The mouth is also lipless, so all of its needle-shaped teeth are visible. It is not known how the Big Jaws navigate and hunt without the presence of visible eyes, nose, and ears, so it is thought that they utilize the vibrations they feel on the ground to detect the presence of prey. The Big Jaw has no arms, its body is very thin, its back is slightly hunched, its skin is grayish-white, and it has black blood. The Big Jaw has skin that is very sensitive to light especially to light, even the rays of lamps and torches are enough to keep them away. Despite their fragile-looking bodies they are known to possess great physical strength and a very high resistance to sharp objects and impact, making attempts to harm them quite difficult. Until now, only light has been used to repel them and fire to harm them.
Additional Information:
Big Jaws were often misunderstood as Smilers due to their rather iconic smiles and how they always avoid light, but they were eventually established as two different entities after it was discovered that Big Jaws lacked the eyes and glowing smiles of Smilers. The Big Jaw was also once thought to be an aggressive variant of the Facelings, but this assumption was rejected as there was no evidence to support this.
