Inspired by: Vapes, Ninth World Bestiary
One of the monstrosities that has crawled forth from the Breath of the Earth is a strange wolfen predator.
Called the fresco beast by gnolls because from one angle it looks like a long wolf painted on a wall, the alien is flat. Turned to face its prey, it disappears – except for its toothy jaws.
The Nekh are particularly distressed by its appearance in their territory, and will pay handsomely for it to be somehow disposed of. Their concern may be heightened by a “flattening” of the land around the beast’s lair, as rocks thin and sharpen, the clouds turn blocky and the cactuses contract into mere sketches.

- How do you slay somoething that only exists in two dimensions?
- What does it think about this more substantial world?
- How does it eat? What does it eat?
