While they were revealed as silicon-based repitilian lifeforms based on Alan's research on these creatures, many elements of the physiology of the Creatures of Darkness violate several laws of science: They lack bone, muscle, or vertebrae. Their cells even lack any DNA, but instead contain a crystalline structure with surprising photosensitive properties as the genetic materials that are equivalent with DNA of lifeforms with more organic physiology. This effectively gives an impression that these creatures are more like minerals that imitate the "evolution" of the living and became sentient due to the same reason.

  • While they were revealed as silicon-based repitilian lifeforms based on Alan's research on these creatures, many elements of the physiology of the Creatures of Darkness violate several laws of science: They lack bone, muscle, or vertebrae. Their cells even lack any DNA, but instead contain a crystalline structure with surprising photosensitive properties as the genetic materials that are equivalent with DNA of lifeforms with more organic physiology. This effectively gives an impression that these creatures are more like minerals that imitate the "evolution" of the living and became sentient due to the same reason. They breed asexually like bacteria. The process of reproduction requires that they pour their crystalline structure on mineral-rich soil, and from it, a womb/egg-like pod grows. Inside it, a baby of these creatures would grow to the adult size. Once fully-grown, the pod opens up like a flower and the creature inside it is "born", as seen when a Photosaurus emerges from one of these "wombs" within the World of Darkness. All types of these creatures are allergic to light (some creatures being repelled by flashlight, while light producing ammunition like "magnesium bullets" are deadly to them). Exposure to light turns some creatures into ash.
