A wild creature appears!

Orimpa

Orimpas are small and fluffy creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a small cat. They have large ears and a long, bushy tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, gray fur. Some regional variations also develop white or orange spots in their fur. Orimpas are extremely intelligent and have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds. Orimpas are generally peaceful creatures, but are known to become very violent when threatened. They live in large groups and spend most of their time foraging for food. Their favorite food is acorns and sunflowers, which they crush on rocks to form a mixed powder that they sprinkle on other foods for flavor.

#126 Fexodo

Fexodos are small, furry animals that somewhat resemble a cross between a bat and a mouse. They live in herds of around fifteen and need very little food, subsisting mainly on insects and fruits. Fexodos are social and affectionate animals, and are often kept as pets by humans. When frightened, they temporarily inflate their body to three times its normal size.

#063 Buyrnwen

Buyrnwen are large snails that live for hundreds of years at a time with the ability to osmose their life force into the complicated chemical structure of their shell. After death, buyrnwen shells decompose and recombine with their body, reviving them with their stored life essence. They taste disgusting and have few predators, but those who hunt them also end up extending their own lifespan.

#117 Gomligu

The gomligu is an large creature that resembles a rabbit, but with a long tail and thick, grey patches of rubbery skin. The gomligu is a rather shy and timid creature that flees readily, but they can occasionally be seen wandering about in enchanted forests on their hind legs if you're quiet enough to sneak up on one. While it's generally thought to be good luck to see a gomligu, it is strongly advised you never chase one.

#208 Marvenken

Marvenkens are sea creatures that prey specifically on sailors and passengers to small- to medium-sized boats. Although they typically dwell near the bottom of whatever body of water they've called home, any time a marvenken finds something shiny along the ocean floor they will float closer to the surface in search of boats and unassuming victims. By holding the shiny object in their mouth, they'll reflect sunlight towards the boat to draw attention to itself and hold the object just beneath the surface, as if offering it to the ship's passenger. If their prey reaches into the water to grab the object, the marvenken will quickly wrap a dozen tentacled appendages around whatever they can and pull their dinner into the water, where it is quickly dragged back down into the depths and never seen again.

#272 Gwievft

Gwievft are large, aquatic eels that are typically found in underwater mycelium caverns, although they sometimes explore more open waters. Gwievft have an extremely venomous bite that can completely paralyze dolphins, sharks, and humans within hours and lead to death shortly after. During this time, the gwievft toxin has opium-like effects in the victim that work to keep it calm and avoid struggling. Gwievft toxins have been successfully extracted by natives for use in sacrificial and ceremonial drinks for centuries, although ranching them is an extremely dangerous job.

#224 Larroh

Larrohs are flying insects that can be found in the high mountains of the world, scaling the peaks and drinking from glacial lakes. They are extremely shy and will dissipate their bodies into water vapor and their substance into their surroundings if startled. Larrohs are considered a delicacy among the citizens of Sharr, who will scale the mountains to collect the creatures for consumption.

#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.

#314 Ghiana

Ghiana are a distant aquatic relative to ancient starfish that pump electricity through their veins and filter water into liquid carbon, which they passively absorb. Although these colorful fish are known for their beauty (and weirdness), the color they appear as depends entirely on the emotional state of their viewer. Those with a clear conscious will see them as a light pink, while those with deep secrets will see a darker red or orange. In rare cases, some people claim to see ghiana of other colors; however, scientists are still unsure of how ghiana color-changing mechanisms work and what exactly dictates who sees what color.

#296 Jaxilith

Jaxilives are large shapeshifters that appear as a swarm of blue flies when dormant. When a jaxilith is threatened, it will transform into a larger worm-like creature. This njaxilith form is covered in sharp red scales and flies with a small set of translucent wings that emit a small amount of blue light. Jaxilith temperament is short and aggressive, quickly swarming and overwhelming any potential threats to their home. Nowadays, the remaining jaxilives are said to live in underground caverns, where they indiscriminately prey on anything that isn't blue. Experimental testing of a severed jaxilith lens revealed that blue is actually the one color this small shapeshifter can't physically see. Some cultures have historically dissolved ground Kjaxilith scales into teas as a precursory version of antidepressants. Although the jaxilith presents itself as a swarm of flies while dormant, it's still only a single decentralized organism — and just as lonely.
