#Octobestiary Entry 15: Serpopard. With the NIMBLE nature of a big cat and the vicious striking potential of a snake, this hybrid is a force to be reckoned with.
#Octobestiary Entry 14: Glacies. An extremely rare humanoid ice elemental which lives in frigid climates; their skin is COLD to the touch. Not much is known about their lives or behavior towards humans. Proceed with caution.
#Octobestiary Entry 12: Dryads. There are many variations of these spirits, based on which type of TREE they are bound to. They are known to be extremely shy, unless they believe a mortal is there to harm their trees, in which case they become extremely fierce.
#Octobestiary Entry 11: Nuckelavee. This demonic entity appears as a human rider fused with a horse, with exposed MUSCLE. Its toxic breath can bring plagues to crops and any living things. When enraged, they will kill fields of cattle.
#Octobestiary Entry 10: Karyōbinga (or Kalaviṅka). These divine beings SOAR through the skies of paradise. Their voices are known to be the most beautiful, and they use heavenly musical instruments to sing the word of the buddhas and scriptures.
#Octobestiary Entry 9: Colo Colo. This VERMIN hatches from a snake's egg and will hide in your home, draining your life force from your saliva. If you hear the sound of an infant crying, but have no child in your home, you may be the target of a Colo Colo.
#Octobestiary Entry 8: Marool. This monster of the deep's head is covered in eyeballs and it glows quite BRIGHT under the water's depths, lurking in phosphorescent sea foam. How does its flaming crest work underwater? ...I don't know, I just report on it.
#Octobestiary Entry 7: Mimics. Often HIDDEN in plain sight, these creatures will take the form of objects to entice humans to get close. While often represented by treasure chests, it would be foolish to assume they can't take other forms. They can be anything...anywhere.
#Octobestiary Entry 6: Sunekosuri. These furry fiends sneak about on rainy nights, obsessed with rubbing up against travelers and will weave in and out of legs, making it difficult to walk. Regional variants can be quite AGGRESSIVE and will purposely trip you or bite your ankles.
#Octobestiary Entry 5: Hoopsnake. While it can SLITHER like its brethren; it will grab its tail and swiftly roll itself like a wheel to dash after quick prey, launching itself at them while hitting a high velocity.
