A wild creature appears!

Midenikó

Midenikó are an ancient race of extradimensional shadow creatures that are capable of tunneling through time, space, and æther. Because they have so much time and space to play in, the odds of any one person seeing a midenikó in their lifetime are astronomical, yet the vast majority of the Greats throughout history have all claimed to have seen one.

#079 Skrayll

Most Skraylls live in the darkest forests, eating shrubs and rodents, although those that live a long time often grow larger and larger. Skrayll bones are made of a soft, rubbery substance that allows them to change over time depending on use, not unlike how muscles grow and shrink. Their rubbery bone material also secretes a slimy substance that hardens into a thick hide when exposed to air, which skyraylls must constantly shed or else they risk mobility problems and/or full paralysis.

#083 Weretree

When a werebeing sheds blood into groundwater, in some rare cases a nearby tree may absorb it and transform into a weretree. After around six weeks of transformation time, the weretree's bark feels rubbery; the branches grow large, meaty muscles; a face may form, though often lacks the vocal cords to speak; and a coveted Essence Tree may sprout directly from its wooden heart, producing nectar, ambrosia, and colorful fruits. Farmers lucky enough to have a weretree born on their farm benefit greatly from the weretree's harvest, but also inexplicably become targets for jealous neighbors.

#013 Emerid

Emerids are social, friendly birds that travel long distances through deserts, trying to make friends with lonely travelers and larger animals. They've been known to sing loud songs on hot nights, with nearby emerids all singing the same song. Those that spend much time in deserts typically develop a love-hate relationship with the emerid songs that keep them company during the day, but also keep them up all night.

#372 Alalalalamba

The fearsome alalalalamba has a louder bark than bite, although it can do neither as a toothless mollusk at the bottom of the ocean. Alalalalambas use their immense size to intimidate would-be predators and scare prey into a paralytic submission. These creatures reproduce quickly with live births of up to twelve alalalalambas at a time, yet rarely live very long due to their lack of real defenses when pressed by unintimidated predators.

#141 Wartbug

The large wartbug is native to warmer forests on southern coasts, but has slowly spread throughout the continents over the years. They are about as large as a dog and primarily feed on berries and small forest-dwelling rodents. Wartbug shells are renowned for their durability and often sell for a high price. When a Wartbug is threatened in the wild, they will dig their feet into the ground to anchor themselves in place and then hide within their shell; predators will eventually give up versus their inpenetrable shell, but hunters and merchants will typically just cut off the wartbug's legs and haul the large body back to civilization.

#201 Jigbat

Jigbats are large insects that resemble blue bats. They can be found throughout the world's forests and feed on insects, small birds, and berries. They sting their prey with a powerful paralytic venom that stains the skin blue, which they often use when they are hunting together in groups of several dozen. After taking down prey for food, jigbats will often turn on each other and fight over their share, often stinging other jigbats in the process. Jigbats are immune to their own species' venom, but if a jigbat has been stung, it will become paralyzed for several days and will be unable to eat or defend itself from future attacks. During this time, they will often hide in caves or other natural openings until their strength returns.

#237 Armal phix

Strictly, the armal family of creatures are collectively results of sudden biological mutations on the common house dog after an exposure to aether mist. Although the biological change is minimal, the extreme difference in temperament and behavior has earned the armals their own classification. The phix mutation often results in a disproportionate growth of long hair from the joints and a painful extension of the skull. Armal phix are terribly aggressive and will attack anything that moves, regardless of whether it is threatening or could be eaten. The armal phix is a menace to many cities due to their quick reproduction cycle and ability to prey on small city animals for survival. If you see an armal phix anywhere near city limits, you should immediately report it to the authorities.

#185 Vuewex

Vuewex are a parasitic skin mite that measure a little under 1 nanometer in width and height. These small critters passively absorb kinetic energy from their host through a reversed osmosis process that looks similar to feeding. A vuewex infection is difficult to to treat due to their small size, but typically clears itself up within a week or two due to their short lifespan and inability to reproduce in most dermal environments. Vuewex are common on islands, where the humidity makes it easier for them to jump from particle to particle in the air towards their next host. Symptoms of a vuewex outbreak include rash, fatigue, and itching.

#257 Volagena

Volagenas are a species of squid-like creatures that are also extremely large. They are carnivorous and exist as top-level predators in their environment. They use their powerful tentacles to gracefully move through the water, and can even use them to grip obstactles for leverage and throw themselves at high speeds through the water. Adult volagenas rarely venture out of the deep oceans, but when they do they are often a terror to the entire ecosystem, as well as any passing ships.
