This giant, immobile mushroom has developed a defense against predators. it can emit multiple discordant tones at extremely high volume by constricting air sacs in its bell. the air passes through tubes with vibrating fibers. this causes intense pain in most animals, possibly incapacitating or driving them away. note that it cannot kill, only stun. this reaction is triggered whenever it or its network of mycelium is disturbed significantly either by being eaten by small creatures or stepped on/touched by large creatures Instinct: to protect the colony

• Emit a painful high pitched shriek to stun animals
• can attract unwanted attention
• Immobile

These felines are approximately the size of a cheetah or leopard and built similarly, but through magical manipulation have been given an extraordinary ability. They can retract the flesh on their face, exposing bone, sinew, and muscle. This would serve little to no practical purpose in the wild, but many sentient beings find it acutely disturbing, and are unnerved or outright frightened upon seeing the grizzly trick. these creatures have learned to capitalize on this and hunt sentient beings almost exclusively. Instinct: to hunt

• Intimidates prey by screaming and retracting facial skin.
• Pounces, claws, and bites weakest link
