Petey is a weapon, similar to the Lambs, designed for stealthy infiltration.

Appearance[edit]

He is described to be a similar age to the lambs (around 12). He looks like a fetus with spider legs and a life support plus sac for changing hosts.<ref name=":0">A fetus, crawling across the hardwood, skin almost translucent, with far too many veins spiderwebbing across the surface. It had been grafted with additional parts, I noted, insect legs that gave it more ability to move in the outside world. All the same, it was no larger than my two fists put side by side.

I remembered what the others had said. That Petey was about our age..

A twelve-year old fetus?.

As Petey made it halfway, I could see his ‘tail’. The spinal column extended back, and was attached to a bag, half-filled with fluid..

“What’s that?”.

“Brain, in a more malleable, bare-bones package,” Lillian said. “Includes some life support. Tiny body isn’t big enough to sustain a working, functional brain. Life support keeps him alive until the host body adapts.” - Excerpt from Tooth and Nail 7.6</ref>

Project Goal[edit]

Petey can possess or take over the bodies of other living creatures, including modified ones. He was given some insect legs to move and bare bones life support organs to keep him alive during the transfer of hosts. <ref name=":0" />

Psychology[edit]

Petey was reluctant to take over a Ghost, because they are like "a bed of swords". He also does not like to be touched when he transfers hosts.<ref>“Can you take the Ghost?” Gordon asked.

Petey scowled. “I’d really rather not.”

“It’s mission critical,” Mary said.

“It’s like sleeping on a bed of swords,” Petey said.

“Mission critical, time critical,” Mary said.

“We did say we’d help you out,” Helen said. “We got you what you need to do the most damage. Right here.”

Petey stared down at the Ghost. I heard a sigh.

“When I’m moving, don’t interfere. Don’t ‘help’ me,” Petey said.

“Why?” Helen asked.

“Because it’s irritating,” Petey said. -Excerpt from Tooth and Nail 7.6</ref> Petey does not have an inate knowledge of his hosts biology, based on how he needed Helen to teach him the Ghosts language.
