A wild creature appears!

Jotam

Jotams are small, furry creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a large mouse. They have large ears and a long, boney tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, gray fur. Jotams have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds. Jotams are generally peaceful creatures, but are known to become very violent when provoked. They live in extremely large groups and spend most of their time foraging for food.

#053 Electrofly

Electroflies are gaseous clusters of friendly, intelligent sublife that often physically get caught in airwave currents or magnetic fields, scattering the cluster in a perpetual cycle of trying to reform the cluster's desired shape and structure, which resembles a large, pearlescent butterfly.

#092 Arochngiap

Arochngiaps are sentient, blind masses of undeveloped meat found deep underground and in caves. They move slowly and grow random limbs, with records showing anywhere from 0-10 arms and legs. They can often be found in small pools of still water, absorbing nutrients through their skin.

#376 Birbanna

The Birbanna (Avibanana mysticus) stands as a distinctive and curious fictional species, seamlessly merging the features of a flightless avian and a tropical fruit. Native to the idyllic landscapes of Fruitalis Isle, Birbannas exhibit a striking resemblance to oversized bananas, adorned in resplendent yellow plumage reminiscent of sunlit bananas. Notably, their mode of communication is a phenomenon that sets them apart - employing exclusively muffled riddles to convey their thoughts. This unique linguistic trait contributes to their aura of enigma, captivating the imagination of those fortunate enough to encounter them. As arboreal inhabitants, Birbannas fulfill a role of ecological stewardship within their verdant habitat, offering veiled insights and wisdom through their cryptic dialogues. The profound blend of whimsy and depth associated with these avian enigmas has established Fruitalis Isle as a haven where intrigue and sagacity harmonize in the form of the Birbanna.

#246 Syphunn

The syphunn is an ancient shadow creature only visible on moon-less nights. These dark mammals are covered in greasy, black fur and have a long snout they use for eating. Syphunn are capable of moving incredibly quickly while remaining entirely silent aside from their raspy breathing. Although syphunns are typically spotted alone, these creatures often live and migrate within large familial units, often spanning dozens of generations.

#197 Glandrac

Glandracs are living piles of desert trash. They are the avatars of the world’s most disgusting souls, who have been reborn as living garbage. Glandracs are always scrounging for food and will sometimes go for days without finding anything to eat. When they do find food, they will devour it whole, packaging wrappers and all. They reproduce by eating an extraordinary amount of food, then defecating out a small baby glandrac, which will look exactly like a smaller version of its parent. The adult glandrac will then lead the offspring on a long trek across the desert to a new trash pile, where they will begin their new life together.

#287 Chillopiar

Chillopiars are aquatic animals that live in the depths of the ocean. They are composed of many small pieces of coral and sponge, which can be detached and reattached by contracting muscles in their bodies. If a chillopiar is injured and loses a piece of itself, it can regenerate it by eating another chillopiar. They are highly social, and they communicate with each other by emitting and receiving different frequencies of light, including some on a spectrum invisible to humans.

#330 Jibbin

Jibbins are interesting tundra-dwelling creatures best known for their rapid growth and shrinking, with their size determined almost entirely by their mood (and most recent meal). Although they generally keep a scarce diet of nuts and berries scavenged from the snow, jibbins that find themselves too excited for too long will grow to an unsustainable size for all but the most fruitful of environments. When hunting jibbins, many locals will intentionally antagonize the creature to induce rapid growth before killing it, resulting in more spoils per kill. When left alone in a calm environment, a jibbin can live up to ten years.

#322 Ungarmel

When a creature is near, an ungarmel on the prowl will curl up in a ball and hover above the ground, doing its best to blend in with the environment in order to catch its prey unaware. When the time is right, the ungarmel will attack by releasing the creature inside it that drinks blood. After a successful hunt, the creature returns and eventually shares its spoils from inside the ungarmel.

#296 Jaxilith

Jaxilives are large shapeshifters that appear as a swarm of blue flies when dormant. When a jaxilith is threatened, it will transform into a larger worm-like creature. This njaxilith form is covered in sharp red scales and flies with a small set of translucent wings that emit a small amount of blue light. Jaxilith temperament is short and aggressive, quickly swarming and overwhelming any potential threats to their home. Nowadays, the remaining jaxilives are said to live in underground caverns, where they indiscriminately prey on anything that isn't blue. Experimental testing of a severed jaxilith lens revealed that blue is actually the one color this small shapeshifter can't physically see. Some cultures have historically dissolved ground Kjaxilith scales into teas as a precursory version of antidepressants. Although the jaxilith presents itself as a swarm of flies while dormant, it's still only a single decentralized organism — and just as lonely.
