Gremlins
A Gremlin is the last stage of the Gremlin life cycle which goes from Mogwai-Cocoon-Gremlin.
It is said that the gremlins are considered to be an unwanted side-effect from when the Mogwais were created on a far away planet to be used as ambassadors of peace on other planets.
They are just about one meter tall and they have scaly reptile-like skin, large batlike ears, three sharp claws on their feet and hands and equally sharp teeth.
Their looks and color may vary, ranging between various shades and combinations of green, brown, and black.
Their intelligence and strength also vary and they are all very mischievous, dangerously violent, and crazily fun-loving.
They are capable of working (and sabotaging) complex machinery and devices, as apparent in folklore where they were believed to have brought down hundreds of planes.
No gremlin has so far proved to be good-willed and nice and most of them don't seem to value the life of their fellow gremlins, sometimes beating or even killing each other for fun.
Even though they are very energetic and often aggressive, they don't seem to hurt any humans who are not afraid of them. (For example, when Grandpa Fred was doing an inside scoop of what was happening inside the building, not a single gremlin behind him laid a finger on him.)
Also, in the deleted scenes when Grandpa Fred was doing his section, George, Lenny, and Daffy were present but didn't try to scare or hurt him, rather joining him for fun.
Mogwai evolve into gremlins by eating after midnight.
It would appear that mogwai are aware of this as many are shown to be determined to eat after midnight.
Even after their metamorphosis, gremlins still retain traits they had as mogwai, such as their dislike of bright lights, their vulnerability to sunlight, and most dangerously their ability to multiply upon getting wet.
Unlike the mogwais, where small furballs pop out from their backs and quickly inflate to turn into new mogwais, the backs of the wet gremlins get riddled with big blisters that contain small gremlins, which rather quickly break free and start to grow.
The gremlins that are giving birth to new gremlins are often more vulnerable than other gremlins because the birthing process is often extremely painful for the creatures.
Afterwards, they continue to live as if nothing happened, often along with the newly-born gremlins that have quickly grown to full gremlin size.
Like Mogwai, they can dissolve when exposed to sunlight.
