Tips
- If Inhuman Roar is activated, it also can be affected by formless, making the outcome of formless way harder to predict
- Homunculi are like wrecking balls, they swing hard but will take each other down in the process. Use formless to your advantage.
Trivia
- The Skinning Homunculus is almost directly adapted from Hieronymus Bosch's third panel of the triptych "The Garden of Earthly Delights"
- The Shivering Homunculi are based on a Cochlea a spiral-shaped cavity found in the inner ear
- The Homunculi are actually a colony of tiny worms that you see crawl out when you defeat them
- The Homunculi sound like children, due to the fact that they are curious about the world just like a child, however their only way of interacting with the world is a giant knife, which means they inadvertently hurt those around them.[1]
- In-universe it's just a coincidence that Skinning Homunculus take the form of giant ears, the "ears" are actually hard, and serve as a defensive shield for the colony of worms.[1]
