Evergrowing blob

+0
−0

A creature the size of a bacteria has awakened and starts eating, it eats it's own bodyweight everyday, and it never gets smaller (Unless it mates). The creature is hermaphrodite but it needs a companion.

It only eats organic materials, it eats it by slowly consume it with it's surface.

It can slide over most surfaces, moves fast in the water. (Speed is relative to it's size)

The companion is another place in space.

The being is fairly dumb, it just keeps eating untill it finds a partner, when it does it merges together and splits 4 way.

The being is aware of it's own existence, and it's species. It will not try and mate with it self after it has splittet.

The being is origined in water on earth.

  • How much can the being eat before it is out of food?
  • How big would the being be after it is out of food?
  • Is it posible for the being to leave the earth ?
  • How big would it be before it is unable to eat it's own weight in food, due to surface being too small compared with hours a day and amount of food needs to be eaten?
