A wild creature appears!

Jideoray

Jideorays are a parasitic orange slime common in the warmer oceans that attaches itself to creatures to feed directly on their skin. Small fish will sometimes allow members of their school to host jideorays, as the toxic pheremone they produce also wards off most predators. Jideorays have a hard time keeping their host alive for long periods of time, but extend their lifespan somewhat by completely covering their eaten flesh with a bright orange jelly.

In rare cases, some animals may find themselves completely enveloped by this orange slime while still alive. At this point the jideoray will often assume complete muscular control over the creature for the rest of its life.

#105 Girflet

Girflets are creatures typically found in the damp undergrowth at the base of forest cliffs. When disturbed, they will race away at high speed, firing off seedpods into the air. On the ground, these seedpods bury themselves into loose dirt and sprout into a full-grown tree, making girflets great for reforesting an area.

#013 Emerid

Emerids are social, friendly birds that travel long distances through deserts, trying to make friends with lonely travelers and larger animals. They've been known to sing loud songs on hot nights, with nearby emerids all singing the same song. Those that spend much time in deserts typically develop a love-hate relationship with the emerid songs that keep them company during the day, but also keep them up all night.

#244 Angelsilk

The angelsilk jellyfish floats through the air on a cloth-like fabric made of the protein chains they produce for skin. Angelsilk are also known as ballgown angels to those who live near enough to the coast to see them. It is not uncommon for these jellyfish to grow long, elegant strips of material that float elegantly through the water as they move, sometimes reaching five or six feet long. These jellyfish do not sting.

#157 Spacebunnies

Spacebunnies are planet-sized pests of the universe that burrow into spacetime tunnels, leaving catastrophic black holes behind. Seeing a spacebunny in the sky is the worst omen someone can ever hope to see, both because their presence foreshadows an inevitable slide of the planet into the black hole's gravitational pull and also because the sight of a space bunny in the sky causes all who see it to go completely and irrevocably insane, which has razed entire civilizations long before their planet was eventually destroyed.

#194 Grock

Grocks are massive, floating creatures with huge gas pockets in their bodies. They can be found in just about every habitat, but especially in forests and swamps, where they spend their days floating and eating and whistling. As they eat more and more, their bodies will continue to grow so that they can float higher and higher. However, their stomachs are quite weak and delicate, which is why a grock will never get too close to sharp objects. Grock splatter is a well-known nuisance to anyone that frequents their habitats.

#161 Adrakas

The adrakas is a giant leathery fish about the size of a small city. Its highly porous skin allows it to breathe in the water or on land, and its mouth is designed to eat all manner of creatures, from mammals to plants to rocks. The adrakas lifespan has yet to be determined, but they've been reported to have endured through more planetary-scale changes and geologic periods than mankind has. They have no known predators.

#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.

#281 Mazurath

The mazurath are a class of giant serpentine creatures that have lived in the deep recesses of the ocean for millennia, if not longer. Mazurath are peaceful creatures but, due to their immense size, sailors often attack them after mistaking them for common sea monsters. Inevitably, the only sailors that live to tell the tale of such mistakes are those who the mazurath lose interest in. A fully-grown mazurath can reach a length of over thirteen thousand meters and has a thick, muscular body with fin-like protrusions, which it uses for propulsion. Although the tips of their tentacles may sometimes breach the ocean surface, mazurath rarely leave the deepest ocean depths.

#346 An fwo dur

An fwo dur share the majority of their DNA with an extinct armadillo-like creature that used to terrorize the mountainside. Unlike their ancestors, however, an fwo dur stand upright on two legs and reach heights of over nine feet tall. These intelligent creatures tower over the more primitive species in their ecosystem, both physically and intellectually; an fwo dur often use tools, build transient infrastructure, and communicate through disjoint chromatic aberrations which can also cause confusion and dizziness in other species.
