A wild creature appears!

Lesser Cagespider

Named after the bony appendages they use to trap live prey with on their back, the lesser cagespider is a terrifying sight to behold. Unlike their larger variants, these cagespiders are only about the size of a large oak tree. They typically prey on ogres, giants, elephants, and other larger animals.

#063 Buyrnwen

Buyrnwen are large snails that live for hundreds of years at a time with the ability to osmose their life force into the complicated chemical structure of their shell. After death, buyrnwen shells decompose and recombine with their body, reviving them with their stored life essence. They taste disgusting and have few predators, but those who hunt them also end up extending their own lifespan.

#082 SLP-001

SLP-001 is the codename for the first viable new species designed at the [redacted] facility in [redacted], Virginia. Copies of SLP-001 have a bright, orange skin designed to be easily seen in low-light conditions, and eight octopus-like arms that can [redacted] a victim with a single touch. In the lab, they were made to wear a custom-made [redacted] to prevent any contact with their skin, especially when undergoing [redacted]. Any reports that claim an SLP-001 has escaped from the lab are completely unfounded and false.

#108 Nulstiver

Nulstivers are large, werecreatures that are native to ancient tundra wastelands. They are generally quite docile and tend to move extremely slowly unless provoked. Despite being quite fearsome in appearance, they are typically quite friendly, often bringing the young children of nearby villages any inedible trinkets they find in the wild. Nulstivers tend to live in large groups, with a single alpha male and female leading the pack. Each nulstiver is responsible for helping raise the young of the pack in a similar way to a wolf pack or a pride of lions. While other types of werecreatures are typically solitary hunters, nulstivers will usually work together to catch large prey animals. The two most prominent features of a nulstiver are their jaws, which are lined with sharp teeth, and their thick, bony, shield-like scales that cover the top of their head and the majority of their back.

#241 Witango

Witango are large, sturdy crystalline beasts that spend most of their days laying down and enjoying a warm bath in temperate swampwater. They have a hard time getting out of their baths because they are so comfortable, so they employ the help of their children (witangolions) to pull them out when their bath is over. When a witango leaves their bath spot, they typically leave behind an assortment of subterrean crystals that spread from their body, which sell for large amounts to most traders.

#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.

#210 Meldor

As the national animal of a small, farmer-run republic on their planet, the meldor is a peaceful and generally friendly creature that can be found minding its own business around the fields and forests of the region. While their legs have lost the strength and power that they used to have in the past, they have learned to adapt by using their surprisingly strong wings to lift their bodies into the air, becoming warriors that fight with the wind itself! A fleet of meldors are always a force to be reckoned with!

#307 Kubup

Kubups are brightly-colored arboreal creatures that can jump up to 100 feet high. They are an important part of forest ecosystems, as they feed on dead tree leaves and recycle them into nutrients for the trees. They typically climb to the very top of trees and sleep there, clinging to the leaves by their sharp teeth, but during stormy weather, they can sometimes be found hiding under rocks or in caves. Their fur, when rubbed on a person's skin, will cause that person to turn into a dornax if the kubup was faizen. The effects of this process are irreversible except by highly skilled magicians.

#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.

#096 Cerasuc

Cerasucs are large, furry mammals that live in deep caves and are often found in groups of 10 or more. They have a black coat and antlers that are prized for their ability to reflect light and light up dark spaces. They have excellent night vision and their hearing is also very acute, allowing them to sense predators from far away. They forage for mushrooms and other underground plants and make nests out of sticks and vines. These strange creatures have a stoic, aloof demeanor and very little interest in other species of animals. They are very shy and skittish creatures that go out of their way to stay away from humans, but will attack if provoked or frightened.
