A wild creature appears!

Bargrim

The bargrim is a small, nocturnal creature which is native to the forests of the world. It may look like an ordinary butterfly when it is resting, but its natural camouflage belies its fearsome nature. It has sharp teeth, tough scales, and can quickly spin a web to trap its prey. Bargrim wings are also covered in a sedative dust that they can expel with a masterful flick of the wing. Some villages make sleepytime tea with bargrim dust.

#010 Vruntyk

Vruntyks are an ancient race of reptile that lived underground in caves for millennia before emerging and finding refuge in deserts and mountains across the globe. They're unfathomably fast and ferocious and live in gigantic, migrating communities. Their skin is as chewable as bubble gum and makes for a strong, defensive leather when tanned.

#044 Zweifhlaightte

Zweifhlaughttes are colossal slugs from a time long before humans that have an interesting physiological compartmentalization not present in other species on the planet. The majority of the body remains buried underground in self-dug caves, while smaller pieces of the body detach and claw their way up to the surface, where they hunt for small animals. After they've consumed an excess of nutrients, the hunting appendages return underground and rejoin with their host body.

#025 Baibi

This small monkey navigates long distances by utilizing the bug-like wings on its back and can commonly be seen flying from forest to forest during the day. Their silhouette in flight mimicks those of birds, but birdwatchers with an eye for what to look out for claim it's a good omen to spot one.

#083 Weretree

When a werebeing sheds blood into groundwater, in some rare cases a nearby tree may absorb it and transform into a weretree. After around six weeks of transformation time, the weretree's bark feels rubbery; the branches grow large, meaty muscles; a face may form, though often lacks the vocal cords to speak; and a coveted Essence Tree may sprout directly from its wooden heart, producing nectar, ambrosia, and colorful fruits. Farmers lucky enough to have a weretree born on their farm benefit greatly from the weretree's harvest, but also inexplicably become targets for jealous neighbors.

#107 Vlaughd

Vlaughd are demonic-looking, bat-winged desert creatures. They have extremely long prehensile tongues and their saliva is acidic enough to corrode metal. They have razor-sharp teeth and large, blood-red eyes. They are highly carnivorous and will attack and eat almost any other creature they come across. They are extremely fast and agile, and will not hesitate to pick a fight with a much larger adversary.

#224 Larroh

Larrohs are flying insects that can be found in the high mountains of the world, scaling the peaks and drinking from glacial lakes. They are extremely shy and will dissipate their bodies into water vapor and their substance into their surroundings if startled. Larrohs are considered a delicacy among the citizens of Sharr, who will scale the mountains to collect the creatures for consumption.

#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.

#312 Galum

Galums are ancient, majestic creatures born from the remains of ancient warriors. They were once sentient beings known as the "ustones," but were transformed by an unknown magic into massive, leathery creatures with two wings and a retractable tail. Galums can speak, but rarely do so; instead, they prefer to be silent, stoic, and hypervigilant. Although galums have wings, they weigh far too much to be able to fly; whether this was an intentionally cruel design or a safety mechanism for their makers has been lost to time.

#266 Zajg

Zajg (spelled zayg in some locales) are a faceless fish common in warm reefs. These large trawlers use a version of echolocation that provides better information about their surroundings compared to typical fish eyesight. This sensory system allows zajg to dominate their habitats using tactical positioning and almost-omniscient knowledge of what is happening where. Although zajg reproduce often, their populations are often controlled by local fishermen.
