"Well...I can definitely say that my breakfast is coming up to say hi today."
Garrus upon seeing a thorian creeper for the first time.

Thorian Creeper, otherwise simply known as a Creeper, is a type of organic creature formed and controlled by the Thorian. The only observed use of these creepers was during the Battle of Feros, and they have since not been sighted. Attempts to study them have proven futile, as they detonated upon the Thorian's death. Seemingly humanoid in nature, they are, contrary to fearful speculation, not transformed humans. Instead, Thorian creepers assume the form of the first life-form they see, although can only partially imitate their form. The creepers on Feros saw humans first and emulated their form, and it's likely that prothean-looking creepers existed at some point. Creepers were also heavily used in the Thorian's war with the Reapers as an effective counter to the husk.
