A wild creature appears!

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.

#068 Werespirit

These poor souls thought death would be a sweet release from their lcyanthropic curse. Instead, werespirits go into a ghostly rage every full moon, furiously causing mild inconveniences and minor mishaps for people in the physical realm. Some cultures bury suspected werewolves with silver tombstones to keep their town were-free.

#067 Winter Veln

Winter velns hide from predators by appearing flat or misfigured from a clever use of optical illusion camoflage, but they're actually typically very fat creatures. They eat snow and do a sort of reverse-photosynthesis, producing energy from darkness. Because of their plumpness, veln are a prized delicacy for almost every other creature in the famined tundras they inhabit. They strictly stick to a "reproduction cycle" that occurs approximately every six years, laying anywhere from sixty to eighty eggs per nest.

#078 Etorg

Etorgs are the living skeletal remains of eternal giants. Although most have grown bored of life and live solitary lives atop mountains or in colossal underground caves, younger etorgs will sometimes adopt a city, curl up around it, and patiently watch generations of lives unfold. Etorgs also love sandwiches, which they occasionally make by uprooting entire forests to squish between two slabs of planetary crust.

#021 Red Vasamee

The Red Vasamee is a rodent-like creature that is notable for evolving over time to be strictly vegetarian after a meat-bourne illness nearly caused their extinction. These days they prowl through fields looking for seeds and berries, but will also settle for blander meals like grass and plant stalks.

#039 Gundir

Gundirs are feared beasts of the furthest reachest north. They move quickly and quietly, using the pelts of their prey both to stay warm and remain cloaked under cover. They have been known to masquerade as animals for up to a week before ambushing others. Natives in the area refer to gundirs as fi'ni, which roughly translates to "Layered Pelt Beast".

#255 Squirmpod

Squirmpods are large, plant-like life forms often found in or around the greater rainforest regions. They are about the size of a small human and appear like a giant tree sprout, with a gray-brown trunk and a dark green, leaf-like canopy sprouting from the top that squirmpods passively absorb ambient nutrients from. Despite their stumpy appearance, they are surprisingly very fast and agile. To get around, they bend their trunk backward, quickly growing a new leg at the base of the trunk and leave their old leg behind. These broken-off leg sections will quickly grow roots of their own into the soil and become a new squirmpod to continue their species' rapid proliferation.

#313 Koben

Kobens are small, furry creatures that have sharpened claws and retractable spikes on their backs. They are generally non-violent and don't attack humans unless provoked. They are foragers that search for food for most of the day, but also enjoy digging holes in the ground to hide from larger predators. Koben often rub their back-spikes against tree trunks which results in deep, noticeable gashes. Male kobens develop a bright pink coloring later in life, while females may sometimes develop patches of white fur.

#321 Sathera

Sathera are peaceful, ethereal creatures that feed on the energy of lightning storms. They are mostly invisible in most light spectrums, but when visible, they appear as circular fields of color that are constantly shifting. They tend to stay high in the atmosphere and will often be present during large storms; however, they occasionally kneel down to the planet to drink from lakes and rivers.

#074 Angrenif

Angrenifs are shapeless blobs of living matter that can be found in the deserts of the world. They are extremely resilient and can survive for years without water or food, instead drawing their energy from the heat of the desert. When an angrenif is in direct sunlight, it will begin to move faster and morph to grow larger; but when it is in the shade, it will slow down and begin to shrink. Their typical lifespan is about one hundred years.
