A wild creature appears!

Krangof

Krangofs are most notable for their pungent odor and high-pitched, loud calls. They are largely-solitary, aggressive scavengers and maim any other animal that they perceive as a threat. Their sharp teeth are formed into a single, solid, serrated blade. Krangofs are the only creature completely impervious to the venomous bite of a poxip, among many other poisons. Krangofs are very smart and sometimes work together in small groups to hunt the animals that they need to survive, although they are untrustworthy and will backstab others to gain more food for themselves after completing the hunt.

#046 Camp Spirit

Camp spirits only appear in cases where a human body has been burned alive and left alone. It's unclear how they form, but scientists have narrowed it down to something in the bones reacting to long-term exposure to ashes. They were common during the witch trials and often reproduced through a method of indirect induction, wherein they'd intentionally cause mischief that led to suspicions of more witches. Camp spirits are much rarer nowadays, but not entirely extinct. They've evolved to live much longer and learned a system of governance that allows them to induce new generations through coordinated mischief and subterfuge on nearby human towns.

#019 Braggen

Braggens are large, blue birds that are known for their ability to fly extremely fast. They are very difficult to catch and can be found most often in forests following a wildfire. Braggens are extremely intelligent and can communicate with humans through nascent telepathic abilities. They are known to be extremely loyal to their owners, and will often protect them from any threats.

#103 Mountain Widow

The mountain widow is a spider that lives in the snowy mountains of the world. It is well adapted to the climate, as it burrows into the snow and stays underground until it is disturbed by the vibrations of footsteps. While underground, mountain widows will enter a meditative state of extreme focus where they listen to the vibrations of the mountain to "see" what creatures are moving where. For fun, they make thick webs in inactive volcanoes and calderas. When ignored, mountain widow webs typically last for centuries before erosion wears them down, often connecting multiple mountain ranges as groups of mountain widows migrate together.

#243 Banabat

Banabats are small, flying creatures of the night best known for their bright yellow coloring and unique reproduction cycle. Banabats are friendly to most species and primarily feed on tree sap by using their sharp teeth to pierce deep holes through bark. While feeding, an enzyme in their saliva mixes back into the tree, fertilizing it. After a tree is fertilized, it will start growing a patch of typically 12-14 additional banabats sprouting directly from its branches.

#239 Fyrial

The brilliant fire of a fyrial's eyes can be seen for miles and are the source behind many religious stories originating in ancient deserts. Although they are typically solitary creatures, they will sometimes come together in pairs or small groups to feed on a massive kill, earning goodwill within their local community. When a fyrial dies, its body is consumed in a violent explosion that burns it to ashes.

#158 Taia

The taia is an ancient creature that has a history on this world that started long before humans. The taia appears visually as a hovering being of luminescent shadows that uproots entire trees in the vicinity to weightlessly orbit around it. As the taia continues on its eternal trek around the globe, it gently replants each tree in an ever-changing trail behind it. It is said that most trees spend about a thousand years per spot (referred to as a "tree lifetime") thanks to the taia's influence. Not much else is known about the taia or its powers.

#286 Zuggar

Zuggars are enormous, tentacled abominations from an unknown origin. Zuggars survive by scooping up giant mountains and slowly digesting the rock formations. After a zuggar finishes eating, it floats to the next mountain and begins the process again. Zuggars have been known to destroy entire continents in their lifetimes and are theorized to be capable of devouring entire planets.

#259 Gghun'vur

Gghun'vur are small insects with 13 legs that live in the coldest frozen tundras in the world. Their internal body temperature is very close to absolute zero, which severely limits the temperatures they can survive in; harsh, freezing temperatures comparatively feel like a sunny day to them and they manage to keep warm in these environments. Gghun'vur hunt other insects and small creatures via a combination of high-speed sprinting and a powerful jump, which the gghun'vur uses to tackle and wrap its legs around its prey, instantly freezing them. An enyzme from the gghun'vur's saliva breaks down biomass within frozen hunks as they lick it, allowing this small creature to consume entire frozen meals with just its small, barbed tongue.

#180 Scordul

Scorduls are large, slow-moving amorphous blobs of flesh and bone that live in the forest. They are nocturnal and will often hide in caves or behind rocks, waiting for prey to come close. They can also camouflage themselves by changing their shape through a complicated bone-reconfiguration process or by coating themselves with a thin membrane of clear mucus that reflects light and smell. They are highly poisonous and will often lay in wait for days or weeks for the perfect time to strike their prey. A scordul bite is extremely painful, and anyone unfortunate enough to survive an encounter will likely lose at least the limb in which the bite occurred, but maybe more.
