A wild creature appears!

Hevvet

Hevvets are intelligent, house-sized horse-like creatures that frequent the snowy tundras and far north. Hevvets were historically unfriendly creatures—aggressively attacking anyone near their homogenous cities—until a large war broke out in the region that divided up the land among the victors. Nowadays, most hevvets have integrated into human societies and the few historically-hevvet cities left might as well be human societies now, given that hevvets account for less than 1% of the population in even the densest city. It is said that there are groups of traditional hevvets still living in caves and the wilderness, scheming and plotting a golden new age for their dying race. There are rumors that a single purely-hevvet town still exists somewhere called the "Warden".

#050 Mahaman

Mahaman that are humanoid birds that exist partially outside of time, which manifests visually with the eponymously-named phenomenon mahamans are known for: superpositions of their body in several simultaneous slices of time appear in tandem to others, which results in creatures that look blurry, morphing, and duplicated.

#027 Mipurd Ballow

Mipurd Ballows are a small, primitive species of salamander that are found in the deepest cavities of melting ice sheets. They are extremely hardy and can survive in almost any environment, but they are slow-moving and are often considered weak by other living creatures. Mipurd Ballows are also extremely territorial and will fight to the death to defend their territory, which rarely goes well for them.

#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.

#258 Tarodo

Tarodos are dangerous cave-dwelling creatures. Their long tentacles are able to find and grasp prey from far away to drag it into their subterranean lairs. Tarodos usually hunt alone from the safety of their lair, but sometimes a few tarodos will group up to work together and overwhelm larger prey. While their sticky, venomous tentacles are a threat to most animals, some fish are able to swim up the tentacles and into the tarodo's mouth to retrieve half-digested fish scraps, as the tarodo's hooked tentacles struggle to grab small things that are moving quickly up the tentacle.

#306 Gruntmrub

Gruntmrubs are small, furry, tree-dwelling creatures that are often mistaken for squirrels or frogs. They live in clans of several dozen, with the largest, strongest gruntmrub serving as the leader. They spend most of their day sleeping in trees, but they are excellent climbers and will sometimes leap from tree to tree to catch flying bugs. They are thought to be one of the earliest non-evolving species in the world and have relatively primitive brains.

#328 Stregadurc

A stregadurc is a small creature that resembles a goblin. They are often found in suburban areas and feed on trash and other items that have been thrown away. They get their name from the strange noises they make, which sound like a combination of a scream and hiccup. Stregadurc organs are a delicacy for some Enhani tribes that live high in the mountains and keep these creatures as livestock in large, cavernous holes. Some wild stregadurcs have been seen crafting themselves basic clothing.

#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.

#198 Hoomer

Hoomers are the descendants of a group of people who took part in an experiment involving transtemporal teleportation. This experiment resulted in the occupants of the teleportation chamber being displaced in time, transforming them into the hoomers. The hoomers' bodies are humanoid in shape, but they have no visible mouths, nose, or ears. Instead, they have a single eye in the center of their chests. They have arms and long antennae embedded within vents that cover them. Hoomers speak by means of complex hand gestures in a language that requires an acute understanding of spacetime and Leibniz curves.

#156 Salnodist

Salnodists are water-dwelling reptiles that hunt by inching slowly towards their prey and trapping them in their mouths before they can escape. The lower jaw is supported by a flexible bone that allows for a larger mouth. They have no eyes, and instead rely on smell to locate prey. This sense of smell is quite good, and they can detect a fish from at least a mile away. Their teeth are blunt, and they are incapable of chewing, so they must swallow their food whole. They have no predators, as their tough skin is almost impossible to puncture, and it is often covered in algae that make the salnodist much less appetizing. Salnodists can grow to be over eight feet long and weigh more than two thousand pounds.
