A wild creature appears!

Alu'fiku

Alu'fiku are reef-dwelling fish most notable for their false "dorsal eye", which remains open while they sleep to help deter smaller predators. This is particularly helpful for alu'fiku because they sleep in open waters, coasting forward as if swimming, rather than hiding somewhere safe for their sleep. This lets the alu'fiku cover vast underwater distances in their sleep and migrate from reef to reef without too much difficulty.

#138 Glorbon

Commonly mistaken as large, black boulders, glorbons rarely ever move except to subtly shape small cavities at the base of their bulbous body. They then secrete a sweet-smelling fragrance to lure small critters into the holes, where they are quickly trapped and absorbed by the glorbon. Their extremely-slow metabolism allows glorbons to go years between meals. Although they are extremely hardy and durable, they also have no active defense mechanism and therefore fall prey to the more persistent of predators, such as humans. Glorbon chitin is often used in construction, providing great insulation and support.

#220 Phlanghia

Phlanghia are interdimensional mass collections that collapse into a large rabbit-like shape when bearing our dimension. These ancient creatures are said to have been around before time or space and seen the evolution of our world throughout time. Although phlanghia seem exceptionally intelligent and powerful, there has been no success yet in the many trials attempting to lure them into containment centers in our dimension for further study, nor any luck in communicating with the creature. Much remains unknown about this mysterious creature.

#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.

#165 Shaleel

The shaleel is a large, multi-colored reptile that inhabits the swamps and wetlands of Oorzh. Being mostly aquatic, the shaleel usually only comes to land when it is voluntarily wanting to shed its skin. Shaleels have a long, constantly-tapping tail that produces an electrical current that they use to incapacitate fish while hunting. When a predator or a new potential mate approaches, the shaleel will raise its tail high above its head and then slam it down; if the creature is a potential mate, the electrical current will cause an explosion of green sparkles that attracts the mate. If the creature is a predator, the explosion will usually ward it off.

#168 Magmatuna

Magmatuna is a cursed mutation of the freshwater tuna, resulting in a scalding hot internal temperature that is immediately devastating to any aquatic ecosystem. Their molten skin causes rapid evaporation of entire lakes and rivers, completely obliterating the ecosystem and resulting in nothing but burn marks and leagues of dead fish in a dry basin. The sighting of any smoke or mass-evaporation in a body of water should be immediately reported to the nearest government body.

#251 Gorgolasa

Gorgolasas are giant carnivorous spiders with very sensitive eyes and hearing. They have a speed and agility comparable to that of a human, and they will often hunt in packs to bring down larger creatures. Despite their ferociousness, when humans have tried to domesticate them, they have proven to be extremely loyal and affectionate, often attempting to cuddle and nuzzle their masters when they get the chance. Gorgolasas produce a fine silk that is both strong and light.

#267 Groxus

The groxus is the largest known insect in the world. They can grow to be 300 feet long and weigh up to 60 tons. Groxuses are nocturnal, feeding on large mammals and each other. They can be found in forests and deserts throughout the world. Because of their large size, groxi spend a lot of time hunting and will swoop down from the sky to consume entire fields worth of livestock before migrating on to new areas.

#288 Korod

A korod is a large, pale yellow bug with two large eyes and two long antennae. It has a single long leg on the underside of its body and two additional antennae on under its wings. It is an omnivore, eating both meat and plants. The korod is blind, deaf, and mute, but it has a keen sense of taste, smell, and touch. Korod are capable of walking, running, flying, and swimming.

#339 Karkat

Karkats are medium-sized creatures that spend most of their time on the ocean floor, though they will occasionally come to the surface for air. They have hollow bones and two long, nearly prehensile tails that help them to swim quickly. When they are at the surface, they tend to gather in large groups and quietly observe the world around them. They have very soft skin and are very gentle creatures.
