If you’re done with Drones nad rubber animals, try turning your loved ones into zombies. Rubber ones, that is.

Rubber zombies are defined by their horrifically strong rubber smell, the constant smoke their rubber emits upon leaving their form and the thick viscosity of its material. While not as unpleasant as real zombies, many still find their odd, sickly way of motion unpleasant. To others, their helpless nature and need for a mind to control them is… appealing? I mean, it’s healthier than kissing a corpse, as low a bar it might be.

A good way to describe their rubber is ‘tarlike’. Since, like tar, it’s sticky, thick and smelly. And trapping. The smoke coming from evaporating shed rubber is harmless and smells of a less aggressive rubber, though can build up in an improperly ventilated room.

Occupants feel numb, cold and disoriented, their minds trapped in a white, warm place many describe as heaven, to help with the sense of being ‘dead’. Zombies can emit moans, but usually are quiet and obedient, possession minimal free will or desire. Some tend to move around, accidentally rubbing off on others and causing more to join the hoard.

Mind control is fierce. The occupant retains no innate desires but to enjoy and persist their ‘heaven’. The body itself becomes compulsed to obey, though the occupant doesn’t understand WHY it wants to do it; they just do. However, their mind is so suppressed they will not perform tasks intelligently; they often get stuck on things, or fail to take certain precautions. Again, not too desirable by most harem owners.

Naturally, they can be styled with colors and ‘designs’, though their form is often very blob-like anyway, so really, it’s a niche taste.
