Turdvivor by Fork on the Table Studios
Once upon a time, in the dark depths of the bowels, there emerged a lone, fiber-rich poop. But this wasn’t just any poop—he was the Chosen One, destined for greatness. His dreams were filled with visions of hope, of a lush, green paradise where life flourished under the warm embrace of the sun from his remains.
A prophecy echoed in his mind: he was the Bringer of Life.
Awakening with purpose, he knew his mission had begun. He had to journey through the perilous sewers of the Big City, where danger lurked at every corner. The path was treacherous, littered with trash, toxic gasses and swarming with tiny creatures desperate for a bite of his nutrient-rich body. But he pressed on, unstoppable, knowing that at the end of his journey lay destiny. His fate? To bring forth new life from the soil, fulfilling the ancient prophecy that whispered his name: The Messiah of Growth.

Speaking of body size, having large body size seem useful to push enemies or at least not be harmed by them.
