behold ! my turbo cancer

ok actually the imitation is not actual rot (nor is it a slugcat, it just makes itself slugcat shaped sometimes). it's a similar type of hyper-omnivorous colonial organism but it's distinct enough that if it and some iterator's turbo cancer came into contact, both of them would start violently eating each other

which is to say that if you toss it at a DLL, good news! the DLL will be dead at the end of the cycle. bad news! imitation is also going to be dying for the entire cycle
