A wild creature appears!

Horsnau

These radioactive snails descend from the common snail but have mutated to grow branching, interconnected shells around long, eel-like bodies. Horsnaus typically live 20-25 years and then die in their shell, which is often too intricate to be reused by another horsnau. While a horsnau shell isn't particularly hard or structurally sound, their toxic, foul-smelling meat deters most would-be predators.

#020 Starbug

Fully-grown starbugs make up the majority of visible lights in the night sky with their planet-sized bodies, but baby starbugs hatch and spend most of their pre-celestial life on abandoned planets until they learn to fly well enough to pierce gravity wells. When their eggs are laid in space, they are made of one of the strongest materials known to man. They drift endlessly, often for centuries, until they find a planet with sufficient gravitational pull to draw them into its atmosphere. The meteoric impact is what cracks the shell and releases a newborn starbug.

#047 Aledharo

Aledharen are slimy, blind creatures that wander deserts in search of warm rocks to lie on, where they'll typically sunbathe for weeks at a time. When an aledharo is hungry, it'll bury its head in the dunes and extend root-like tentacles that extract nutrients and groundwater from deep in the ground. The slime aledharen uniformly secrete from their body is disgusting both in taste and smell, and is a natural predator-deterrent.

#247 Rhaizel

The rhaizel is a quadrupedal creature with a long, spindly body. It has two sets of arms, one of which is normal in size and the other of which is short and stubby. It has a wide, fanged maw and small, beady eyes. Its skin is covered in stiff, sharp bristles and its legs are equipped with extra sets of claws for climbing. The rhaizel is an agile navigator of any environment and can move both quickly and quietly. Rhaizels reproduce asexually, with themselves, and lay a set of two dozen eggs per year.

#242 Antwij

Antwij are a race of small angomites that originate from the southern deserts, but have long since migrated to a wider array of biomes after their homes became uninhabitable. Antwijes don't typically survive very long in the wild, except in the easiest of environment, because of their extremely docile nature and lack of hunting skill. Additionally, these small insects seem to have difficulty taking any food they deem belongs to someone or something else, leaving them starving even when a source of food may be nearby. In some desert societies, antwijes are renowned as ancient, holy creatures and provided a steady supply of food from the church. In these societies, it is not uncommon for these small creatures to crawl over sleeping members of the church in the night, repeatedly kissing them as a sign of thanks and good luck.

#175 Nemmen

Nemmen are small, purple fish that frequent reefy areas and the deep sea, but are also commonly caught to resell as consumer pets. They are soft to the touch and like to be pet by their owners, unlike most other fish. When nemmen are happy, they blow small bubbles that they play with, often swimming circles around each bubble. Most nemmen live two or three years.

#304 Yahak

Yahaks are small and brightly colored birds. They have hearts that beat very rapidly and are able to fly extremely quickly, though sometimes they have difficulty turning when flying at their highest speeds. When they first hatch from their eggs, they are incredibly shy and will often spend several days in their nest. However, as they grow older they will become much braver and will often be found swooping around other animals, as they enjoy being around other creatures.

#346 An fwo dur

An fwo dur share the majority of their DNA with an extinct armadillo-like creature that used to terrorize the mountainside. Unlike their ancestors, however, an fwo dur stand upright on two legs and reach heights of over nine feet tall. These intelligent creatures tower over the more primitive species in their ecosystem, both physically and intellectually; an fwo dur often use tools, build transient infrastructure, and communicate through disjoint chromatic aberrations which can also cause confusion and dizziness in other species.

#353 Frosthorn

Frosthorns are majestic creatures with white, shaggy fur and long, spiraling horns. They have sharp, pointed ears and a thick, curved tail that they use for balance and defense. Their eyes are a piercing blue, and they have large, powerful paws that are well-adapted for moving through snow and ice. Frosthorns are native to cold, snowy environments, such as the tundra and high mountain ranges. They are well-suited to these environments, with thick fur coats that keep them warm and feet that are adapted for walking on snow and ice. Frosthorns are herbivores, and feed on a variety of plants that grow in their cold, snowy habitats. They are also skilled hunters, and will occasionally prey on smaller animals, such as rabbits and hares. Frosthorns are known for their powerful and melodic calls, which can carry for miles across the snowy landscape. They use these calls to communicate with each other, and to defend their territory from other Frosthorns.

#120 Cuuyn

A cuuyn is a strange, slow-moving creature that can only survive in areas where the air contains a certain, top-secret compound. A cuuyn's lifespan is directly correlated with the density of the compound it breathes: the denser, the longer the cuuyn will live, with no documented upper limit. As a cuuyn ages, its bodily cycles speed up exponentially, significantly increasing its metabolism, gestation period, and immune systems. It is widely believed that cuuyns were artificially created for government animal testing, but no one has ever found proof.
