A wild creature appears!

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.

#116 Nitenel

Nitenel are large, gentle creatures when domesticated. They have four heads, six folding wings, and a long, whip-like tail. They have no arms. Their eyes are a piercing red that contrasts their blue feathers beautifully; their beaks are small and each contain one small, venomous fang. Their diet consists mostly of small animals like rabbits, squirrels, and other birds.

#054 Uulu'd

Uuludes exist in the dimensional plane that we only ever experience through nightmares, and therefore they live in a constant state of chaos, illogic, and fear. Their unilateral aggression seems to stem from severe trauma and terror inflicted by their tumultuous environment. They blame the human race for destroying their habitat with nightmares. While once incredibly smart beings, the typical uluu'd is now about as intelligent as a common mouse.

#055 Kurobo

The charming three-legged kurobo walk isn't the only reason they caught the world's eye at their discovery. It's cute, yes, but the real mind-blower is their ability to manifest fire, seemingly at will. The blue fire burns hotter and brighter for as long as the kuobo is near, then fades into the more traditional red and cools down. The first discovered kurobo, Charles, is an internet celebrity.

#103 Mountain Widow

The mountain widow is a spider that lives in the snowy mountains of the world. It is well adapted to the climate, as it burrows into the snow and stays underground until it is disturbed by the vibrations of footsteps. While underground, mountain widows will enter a meditative state of extreme focus where they listen to the vibrations of the mountain to "see" what creatures are moving where. For fun, they make thick webs in inactive volcanoes and calderas. When ignored, mountain widow webs typically last for centuries before erosion wears them down, often connecting multiple mountain ranges as groups of mountain widows migrate together.

#155 Gebloon

The gebloons are a race of intelligent beings that resemble orange blobs with a face. They are about 3 feet tall and have four arms and two legs, although those appendages are usually part of their blob and out of sight when not in use. Gebloons live in small, highly-political villages scattered across their planet of G'bledula, which orbits a red giant that emits large amounts of radiation they absorb for food and energy through a modified form of photosynthesis. Although some gebloons have been brought to our planet, they have a hard time surviving off the sun's comparatively minimal radiation and are less energetic and visibly less saturated as a result.

#149 Softwalker

Softwalkers are a very strange and exotic beast that lives in the tundras of the world, connected to a specific species of plant in a symbiotic way. A softwalker has a very large, fluffy coat of hair that covers its entire body except for its face, which is surrounded by a fringe of long, white hair. Although their body is quite strong, the typical softwalker is rather cowardly, and will often run and hide at the first sign of danger. No matter the terrain, softwalkers never emit any sounds while walking or running.

#178 Xi'gind

The xi'gind is an unintelligent creature that shares more DNA with terrestrial flora than fauna. A single xi bulb, given the proper care and environment, can sprout a newborn xi'gind within a matter of weeks. Although the xi'gind head then grows vertically out of the soil, xi'ginds also accelerate root-like growth of fleshy appendages that can grow from the ground over a hundred yards away. It is currently unknown how the xi'gind controls these remote appendages, as they don't seem to share a physical connection with the head.

#271 Frost Skrayll

Frost skrayll genetically diverged from the common skrayll during the Great Frosting, where their highly-malleable bodies adapted to changing weather conditions. Frost skrayll secrete a slimy substance that freezes instantly when exposed to air, which the frost skrayll uses to manage their internal temperature. In general, frost skrayll have also learned to use this mutation for increased mobility, allowing them to scale glaciers, burrow through hard ice, or create temporary land bridges.

#290 Borkar

The borkar is a small creature that is a distant relative of canines. It is primarily nocturnal, and will often roam around in the dark on its back legs, carrying its food in its front claws. Due to its razor-sharp claws, it is a very fast runner and can climb most obstacles as easily as running along the ground. Like its canine cousins, it is a pack animal and coexists with other borkars peacefully. Borkar often wander into human settlements and live on the streets, only coming out at night to scavenge through trash for food.
