A wild creature appears!

Jaunwix

The rare jaunwix is a hypermaterial metafeline whose origins are unknown. This creature's body flows like water, babbling through brooks and trickling through crevasses like a river, filling whatever space is available. This unstable shape takes the form of water for the most part, but jaunwix can also "emerge" from the water with a shape that resembles a large, black leopard or panther. Jaunwix eat vegetation and shrubs via osmosis and absorption as their liquid body passes over them. This creature also has an incredibly difficult time going uphill, but is capable of doing so given enough strength and effort.

#062 The Acolyte

Not much is known about the acolyte, including whether it's one creature or many. However, many travelers have reported that they've witnessed the acolyte while dying in nearby deserts. The description of the experience varies wildly from person to person, but those who've lived to tell the tale all agree on one thing: the acolyte asks you in your own language to use your dying breath to explain why you should keep living. If the acolyte likes your answer, you'll breathe again.

#097 Whalewalker

These hulking creatures once dominated the long-lost oceans. As the heat wave intensified and oceans began to evaporate, the first whalewalker ancestors adapted their way onto land. Whalewalkers lay down and open their gigantic mouth, then remain still for days at a time to lure in bugs and other small animals before chomping down for a calorie-packed bite. They live lonely, frequently-migrating lives.

#022 Xianc'onent

Since the beginning of storytelling, sailors have told stories of horrible terrors hiding at the bottom of the oceans. These xianc'onents are said to emit a low vibration that amplifies through water and can be felt, just barely, while aboard larger ships. They usually stick primarily to the ocean floor, often living among sunken ships and wreckage, but male xianc'onents will also ascend to higher elevations during their brief mating seasons.

#033 Crefih

The Crefih is an intelligent and tricky creature that attracts prey by reforming a tentacle-like appendage into the shape of a vulnerable animal. The body employs a natural camouflage and springs to attack anything that strays close to its trap. It's said that Crefih are nature's original tricksters.

#081 Eieliez

Eieliezen are knee-high, bird-like creatures that are known for their remote eye, which they can often be seen holding but will also leave behind in their nest to watch their young with while they're out hunting or gathering. Not much is known about how an eieliez is able to see from their completely-disconnected eye. It is believed that they are also capable of growing additional eyes over time and simultaneously seeing from multiple eyes at a time.

#155 Gebloon

The gebloons are a race of intelligent beings that resemble orange blobs with a face. They are about 3 feet tall and have four arms and two legs, although those appendages are usually part of their blob and out of sight when not in use. Gebloons live in small, highly-political villages scattered across their planet of G'bledula, which orbits a red giant that emits large amounts of radiation they absorb for food and energy through a modified form of photosynthesis. Although some gebloons have been brought to our planet, they have a hard time surviving off the sun's comparatively minimal radiation and are less energetic and visibly less saturated as a result.

#256 Ifrit Wyrm

The fabled ifrit wyrm is a colossal demon sandworm that makes its home underneath large deserts. Its immense body temperature superheats the desert's environment and can sometimes result in wildfires or thick layers of glass forming beneath the sand. Ifrit wyrms tunnel quickly and eat anything they can catch, which is often easy to do with their geovibrational feelers. Ifrit wyrms have no known predators and can often be seen fully engulfed in flame, which they use to cook their prey. It is unknown how ifrit wyrms reproduce, but seeing one wyrm is often an indicator that several more are nearby.

#297 Kensix

Kensixes are large, nocturnal reptiles that live in the desert. They are about the size of a car, and have a thick exoshell of chitin which protects them from the sun's rays as well as any physical attacks. To hunt, a kensix will use their deft legs to chase down their prey and repeatedly smash them with their gigantic body, sometimes leaping hundreds of feet in the air to crush unsuspecting prey from above. They are omnivorous, eating whatever meat they can find. Within their shell, kensixes have six rows of elongated incisors.

#320 Blithodurc

Blithodurcs are strange creatures also known as the "silent ones." They have no mouths and instead subsist on a diet of ambient radiation and sunlight. They are about the size of a pea and are made of twisted and fused boneshards of many different animals. They move incredibly slowly and quietly and will often spend days just stretching, observing the people and other creatures of their environs. It is possible for a blithodurc to form a close bond with a sentient life form and become deeply attached to them; however, these relationships are usually short-lived, as the blithodurc will eventually become enamored with another person, who will then become the center of their attention. If a blithodurc is deeply saddened by the loss of their friend, they will sometimes stop moving and die within a few days.
