moonface

(from a novel I'm working on, titled Ella)
He roams the streets of the human colony on planet Hearth at night. Anyone who stairs at one of the lit portholes on the faces of his fabric armor becomes hypnotized, becoming one of his minions. His minions dress in loose, patched fabric and wear baggy top hats, as Moonface likes them to appear to be a gang worshiping him. In reality, those under his influence have no free will. Although no organic parts on Moonface are exposed, he is a creature composed of digestive, nervous, and respiratory entities. And to stay alive, Moonface has a zipper on his belly that opens up and reveals digestive organs, and once in a while, one of his minions are more than willing to be ingested. I won't spoil much more about the story, such as Moonface's origins or how Ella (the protagonist, a humanoid alien rejected by her own kind with incredible reflexes, rescued by the humans) rids of him
