#254 Boolic

Boolics are placid snail-like creatures that spend most of their days crawling in circles through the grass, slowly grazing and depositing their helmet-like shells in a community pile as they grow. In the night they retreat into their shells and begin to dream of their perfect life, a life arranged to the precise specifications of their shell’s dimensions. If this perfect life is disrupted by a predator, the boolic will summon a powerful blast of focused light that will blind the intruder and force them to flee.
