These are the creatures that wander around the earth, consuming everything that's in their way. No one is really sure what they are, but they know to stay away from them. There are different varieties, but most look like the picture above.
They are slimy, and the smell of blood, death, and rotting corpses. Not very pleasant. They have intelligence and can do things that most humans can do, like light fires, or open doors. They fear nothing, and show it all the time.
They do not have eyes, but a very very good sense of smell, and a variety of calls that mean certain things, like when there's blood, weapons, enemies, or dinner. Calls for it's clan members, or territorial calls for others to go away.
It is said that their sense of smell is so good, the can smell out the purity in souls, and only harm the ones that have done something bad. This, however, has never been proven, and is simply a rumor.
They can live in any climate, even underwater and in fire. Most prefer to live in warm, damp places, so many will collect in caves or places they create called dens. These dens are wet with water and saliva as these guys are very very drooly. The dens also have fire in them all the time, evaporating all that moisture and keeping it quite steamy in there.
They collect under various sources, Queens and Kings alike run these armies of Zhivotnoye, and much like a pack of lions, the heads eat first. All kills are brought back to the dens and each eat respectively.
One human life will feed one beast. As the population of Zhivotnoye grows, the population of humans will, indeed, diminish.
It is our job to stop them.
