NEWS: I am away on vacation from 21 June to 10 July. Comics should update as normal, but if anything goes wrong I won't be able to fix it until I get home.
Teeth are one of the most primal things that we fear. Sharp things with intent behind them.
Even just the marks of teeth can be unsettling. Use them to ramp up tension. If the thing that chewed this was here before, it could return at any time.
You don't need to deliver on the promise every time either. Maybe they'll get out safely without ever encountering the thing that left those hand-sized tooth gouges in the metal. They're still going to be terrified.
It's funny. Of all the references to and comments about that I've seen for "You are likely to be eaten by a grue", I've never seen anything about what happens after consumption. C-3P0's mentioned as still being in front, is the one actually examining the speeder, and now there's actual bones..... Yeah, I think Threepio's gonna lose a limb soon. On the other hand, Rey still has all her original limbs, and that would be extremely amusing given Pete's paranoia about the party getting attacked. Carnivorous mole attack doesn't have the same style as lightsaber limb loss though.
As for why there's a speeder and bones down here, perhaps Lando actually was acting as an investigator trying to find that missing person? If this cavern isn't that well known, or it's been recently dug, it'd be an obvious reason for someone to just disappear. Everything in Star Wars physically lands at some point right, even if it hovers to move? All it'd take is for Ochi to be curious about the gravel, land on it, and then get stuck and pulled through. And then eaten of course. If Ochi was some sort of smuggler or other Resistance ally, that'd handily explain Lando being on the planet with the hologram.
GM: While you’re still at the front, 3PO, you spot a large metal object.
C-3PO: Can I tell what it is?
GM: Looks like a speeder.
C-3PO: I examine it.
GM: There’s a weird hood ornament and deep scratches and punctures on the chassis.
Poe: Fang marks! I look around the room for more.
C-3PO: What’s with the hood ornament?
GM: There are stylised runes reading “Ochi”.
Finn: The unboxer. A video content creator ended up down here? What was he doing?
Rey: Probably filming his own death.
Rey: I do a sweep of the area.
GM: You find a skeleton. The bones look... gnawed.
Chewbacca: Tell me we’re not turning into a reaction video.
Finn: Looks like Ochi already gave the jump scare two thumbs down... and lost them both.
C-3PO: We’ll be trending under #BoneAppétit.
