A wild creature appears!

Qaral

The qaral is a species of small tree rodent that originated from the forests of the planet Kan. They are about the size of a peanut and look very similar to small mice, but they lack a tail and have short quills instead of hair. Qarals spend most of their time hopping from branch to branch in the trees and eating insects or small animals. Qarals do not have any vocal organs, so they communicate by making small hops in order to send vibrations through the air. Qarals are very social creatures and will form large groups, sometimes numbering in the hundreds. They are also capable of forming close bonds with other creatures and seem to make friends for life.

#118 Herenella

Herenellas are seahorse-like creatures whose bodies form non-euclidean shapes. They feed on ambient temperature differences deep in the ocean. These creatures are very intelligent and will often be found in tight clusters of dozens to hundreds. Herenellas use their long, malleable snouts to communicate with each other, forming a complex language that uses matter-shifting for intonation. While herenellas can also breathe out of water, they rarely have any reason to leave their food source in the ocean depths.

#133 Reeborra

Reeborras are large, herbivorous creatures native to the planet of the same name. They are closely related to the earth sloth and are often found in the desert dunes. They have short tails that consistently drip water when they're calm, which other creatures often latch on to when thirsty. Reeborras are very peaceful creatures and are often hunted by poachers for their distinctive skull and large water sac.

#200 Norpin

Norpins are small, fluffy creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a mouse. They have short, spindly legs and a long, windy tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, brown fur. This little creature is notable in nature for having no bones in its legs and very few bones in its body; rather than relying on a skeletal system for bodily structure, norpins have very strong muscles that hold their shape and enable an extremely wid range of movement. Norpins are also very intelligent and have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds, including many of those emitted from the earth during natural geological events. Norpins are generally peaceful creatures but are known to become very violent when threatened. They live in large nests with others and spend most of their time foraging for food.

#246 Syphunn

The syphunn is an ancient shadow creature only visible on moon-less nights. These dark mammals are covered in greasy, black fur and have a long snout they use for eating. Syphunn are capable of moving incredibly quickly while remaining entirely silent aside from their raspy breathing. Although syphunns are typically spotted alone, these creatures often live and migrate within large familial units, often spanning dozens of generations.

#254 Boolic

Boolics are placid snail-like creatures that spend most of their days crawling in circles through the grass, slowly grazing and depositing their helmet-like shells in a community pile as they grow. In the night they retreat into their shells and begin to dream of their perfect life, a life arranged to the precise specifications of their shell’s dimensions. If this perfect life is disrupted by a predator, the boolic will summon a powerful blast of focused light that will blind the intruder and force them to flee.

#289 Harra

The harra are an ancient race of polymer creatures that were created by the old gods as a punishment for mankind. Harra were meant to be a curse upon humanity, but they have since evolved and are now a beneficial, benevolent species. They are very intelligent and able to communicate with humans through telepathy. They are able to heal most diseases by touch and the most powerful harra are capable of keeping other creatures alive even if they are mortally wounded. They also have a strange affinity for electronics and are able to understand and control any system using radio waves. They can be found all over the world, but the harra believe their true home is in the sky.

#344 Gavo

Gavo are small, porcupine-like creatures from outer space. Their quills perpetually burn red-hot, which protects them from almost every predator, and their claws are perfectly evolved for digging through almost any material, which has enabled gavos to largely own the underground. Interestingly enough, it seems that gavos significantly grow in size when exposed to the sun, yet most gavos spend every free moment burrowing deeper and deeper into the planet. It is unclear what gavos eat for sustenance. Although gavos are solitary creatures, they are capable of reproducing in large numbers extremely fast if they encounter another gavo underground.

#349 Flayansk

The flayansk originates in the far north, in the freezing highlands of Cotsk. Flayansk vary wildly in size throughout their life, growing quickly from the size of rodents to the size of large boulders, then eventually shrinking back to microscopic levels as they reach old age. No matter their size, however, flayansk struggle with their weight: since they weigh less than air, these creatures will hold themselves close to the ground with their massive claws so they don't float away into the atmosphere. Although flayansk can go for weeks (or, in some cases, months) without eating, starvation is still their leading cause of death due to being unable to get back down to the ground once they start floating away.

#368 Avar shlin

The feared avar shlin is an intrusive pest originating from radioactive swamps and dark forests. This long wriggler is best known for the debilitating toxin it induces within the eyes of anyone that sees it. Something about the avar shlin's image projected on a human retina causes a chemical reaction that produces what has been known as avar sludge; this goo slowly dissolves the intricate structures within the eyeball, resulting in a rare form of incurable blindness where the victim can still see, yet can't understand what is being seen. Avar shlin have been known to decimate entire kingdoms from within. Despite their destructive potential, avar shlins are not aggressive by nature and prefer to avoid confrontations with larger creatures. They are nocturnal, and during the day they will burrow into the ground to avoid detection. Their diet consists mainly of small insects and rodents, but they have been known to scavenge for larger prey if necessary.
