A wild creature appears!

Amber

Ambers are the bane of a sailor's life and have driven many towns inland, away from the waters. After emerging from most sandy shorelines at night, they sit quietly upon rocks, physically reflecting picturesque faces from your most haunting memories.

#042 Heggeh

After spending a millennium with the other few, remaining heggehs trapped in a cavern, new generations of heggeh have completely lost their sight and evolved a slower metabolism that allows them to survive off of almost no food, despite their large size. Now that they're free from the cave, they love nothing more than feeling the warmth of the sun on their back. They are content to graze from fields and eat grass or bugs, always smiling.

#004 Avahi

Not much is known about where avahis originated, but they migrate in large packs extremely quickly, typically along water-adjacent routes. Their small stature and nimble speed makes them difficult to track and their spiny exterior carapace provides an excellent defense against most would-be predators. If you see one avahi, chances are there are many more avahis nearby; they communicate quietly with hand gestures and whole-body movement.

#007 Merm

Merms live in small groups, typically in the deepest reaches of the western oceans. They seem closely related to a potential aquatic fork of human evolution, but scientists haven't yet developed a way to communicate with them.

#192 Crindelino

Crindelino (meaning "giant armored ones" in an ancient script) are New World placental cold-blooded mammals. Crindelinos live isolated lives in the hottest deserts for long lifespans currently estimated to be over two thousand years long. Crindelinos are characterized by a leathery armor shell and long, sharp claws at the end of even longer arms. They have long legs, but are incredibly inflexible creatures, which impedes their mobility and speed. Newborn crindelinos typically measure between five and six feet tall, yet older crindelinos can grow to be over six hundred feet tall. Although they would be extremely capable predators, crindelinos frequently roll up into an armored ball whenever they are threatened by a predator, big or small.

#174 Sanguaven

The night ravens with luminous, blood-red eyes in the south are colloquially known as sanguavens, although they've had many names throughout history. Sanguaven eyes have a unique reflective property that redshifts light and amplifies its reflection, resulting in their bright red eyes being visible in even pitch darkness, sometimes even miles away. These "demon dots", as some historical societies called them, formed the basis for many mythological stories, most notably the "All-Seeing Eyes" by Ronaldo Dominico. Although sanguavens are better understood now, they still instill a sense of unease and anxiety in those who see their glowing eyes, even from afar.

#268 Drullar

Drullars are small, terrestrial dragons with a skin made of transparent crystals. Drullars can range in color from a soft white to orange, with large red eyes and a dog-like snout. They are herbivorous and often live in forests and jungles, where they subsist on a diet of fruit and leaves. Drullars are also highly intelligent and possess a sophisticated system of belief that they communicate through musical notes that drullars produce through the horn-like protrusion atop their head.

#270 Whisper

Whisper bulbs (also affectionally known as "screamers" in windier locales) are sentient plant-animal hybrids that eventually emerge from trees pollinated by The Whisperer. Whispers are also capable of reproducing by infecting the tree with a virus that spreads to other locations in the tree, and may sometimes spread to nearby trees using crosspollination. Although whispers are immobile and cannot hunt, they are capable of tapping the tree they've grown out of for nutrients. Left alone, whispers generally match the lifespan of the tree they depend on, although too many whispers absorbing nutrients from a single tree may kill it. The shape of a whisper produces a distinct, high-pitched whistle when wind passes through it, increasing in decibels as the speed of the wind increases.

#359 Nadraghb

The nadraghb are extradimensional beings that physically resemble earthly raccoons in appearance, but that's where their similarities to any creatures on this planet end. Nadraghb seem to freely manipulate spacetime, allowing them to move at superluminal speeds, fly, or phase through matter on another plane. Nadraghb have a complex social structure, valuing community, cooperation, and self-improvement. They have a strong sense of family, often living in large groups with close-knit bonds. Their society is ruled by a council of elders, chosen for their omniscience and experience, who assign quests to those in lower castes and mentor the young. Although nadraghb seem incapable of speaking or understanding human languages, they do seem to have a sense of humor; when visiting our world, they often fashion clothes to look like ninjas, bandits, or cowboys. These creatures are capable of using literally any object as a weapon and will always fight their way out of any sticky situation. Despite their advanced abilities, however, the nadraghb are largely peaceful creatures, often preferring to spend their time studying the quantum plane or watching cartoons.

#354 Loqui

Loqui are a small species of upright, bipedal reptiles that are best known for long-distance marches across flatlands like meadows, deserts, and plains in sizable migratory crowds. During the spring, loqui will gather in these immense crowds and begin their season-long march, picking up and/or leaving loqui in new locations along the way. The carefree sounds of a loqui march can often be heard from almost a mile away. The flowers that grow on the back of these reptiles have an interesting microcosm of pollination and cross-breeding, driven primarily by their migration. Solitary groups of loqui will find that their flowers will unify into a single color and shape over time, while traveling loqui will grow new kinds of flowers depending on the group they're in. Some large corporations own large loqui farms where they manage and breed their flocks for specific flowers, which they mass-harvest every fall for sale, often to medicinal or pharmaceutical companies.
