STRIFE
Name: Lucipheles
Appearance:
Based off of the Luna Moths, these insect's most noticable feature is a black colar of fluff surrounding the area below its neck. As different species of this moth appear depending on the season, their colors range from dull brown on autumn to a wintery white (Common Lucipheles have soft brown wings, minty green antennas and a chocolate brown body to hide on the tree barks). Larvae Lucipheles can reach the size of a human hand and older ones the size of a dog, certain types of Lucipheles even wield horns similar to a Hercules Beetle! Some of them leave dust from their wings.
Behaviour:
Lucipheles are a really clever and docile insect and should someone befriend one, a really handy companion. They appear to understand human speech as one will flee if a dangerous creature appears. Another hint on their cleverness is the fact a befriended Lucipheles will use the objects around it to interact with their owner. They breed asexually which means when one of these insects is ready to die, it will lay its eggs (Around 90 to 120 eggs) and afterwards encase them in an acidic saliva (After consuming certain herbs to do so) to protect them. Strangely enough, Lucipheles are lonely creatures and only in extremely rare intervals will you see a swarm of them. (*Cough* You're most likely to see Strife hugging Nastydog rather than a swarm of them *Cough cough*)
Diet:
A Common Lucipheles feeds off of light and to do that, they have develop photosynthesis so most of the time, you will find them sitting on a sunny spot with their wings spread most of the time. Each species has a different diet
Other species:
Snowsquall Lucipheles -
This species appears only in the winter and feeds on tiny ice shards which shatter with their horn. Most noticable colors are soft blue and white.
Venom-Horn (Or Venomous) Lucipheles -
Like their names imply, their horn is hollow and has taken the role of a stinger taking the form of a Yello Jacket stinger. They feed on smaller insects and can be indentified by its vibrant colors.
Cave Lucipheles -
Unlike others of their species, they hardly look like a moth. Cave Lucipheles take a more beetle-like appearance with the exception of the fluffy collar of its kind, their colors are dark and dusty browns like the caves they inhabit in. Due to the lack of light, they have develop echolocation to see and use their hard, heavy horn to pierce through rocks (In the right hands, a Cave Lucipheles' horn can even become a knife!) In order to carry the massive horn, they have 'abandon' their wings for a stronger and bulkier body. They feed on grinded up stones.
Necropheles -
Necropheles are the larger and more hostile of the species, its colors looks nothing like the others as they are monochromatic save for a white (when the body is black or vise versa) skull on their belly and vibrant eye spots that give them the appearance of a floating skull when looking at them from a distance. They are cannibalistic and use their sharp, hollow horn to pierce through the 'acidic shield' to feeds on other Lucipheles' eggs and larvas.
Refresh Lucipheles -
Mainly named for their refreshing bright blue and yellow colors but also the cool dust they drop, these Lucipheles appear in the summer and feed on the pollen of summer flowers.
(And my most favourite one) Berry Lucipheles -
This species appears in spring and are famous for their pastel pink wings and red body. They feed on red berries and their dust smells according to te last berry they had.
Items they drop:
Snowsquall - Plain Snow
Venomous - Venom dust (It is best to keep this one in a jar)
Cave - Grounded precious stone and tough horn
Necropheles - Hollow horn
Refresh - Cool dust (Can be used as a sunscreen during summer)
Berry - Sweet dust

Creature name: Phasmatis Vulpes (Ghost Fox)
Physical description: This creature is about the size of a regular red fox. About twice as large as a house cat. This swift creature has a thick red coat and black stockings. The tips of their ears are black and the tip of their tail (as well as their underbelly) is snow white. Their snouts are pointed and their faces are long. They have beady black eyes that'll send just about anybody in a trance. Their small but lean frame help them dash though the forest swiftly and noiselessly. Although there is just one thing... They might not even be real.
History: The Ghost Fox looks as though it is there, but it isn't. It is merely a hallucination. Although many beg to differ (hence the name). Many wolves and other creatures have found proof that the Ghost Fox is not a legend, but a real species who's learned the art of sneakiness and trickery.
Personality: The Ghost Fox is known for coming out of nowhere and to distract their victim from what they're doing. They tilt their heads to one side and stare at you with what seems like their empty eye sockets and purr. Those whom have never encountered one of these, usually fall for its tricks. Some of these foxes will simply divert your attention for a moment and leave, some will put you in a trance and guide you to doing things you never thought imaginable. It is impossible to catch a Ghost Fox. No one knows if there are many Ghost Foxes or only one that keeps appearing. The Ghost Fox is yet still a great mystery.
How to Avoid Being Controlled by A Ghost Fox: Don't travel though the woods alone if you can. If not and you encounter one, don't give it eye contact even if it's tempting. The Ghost Fox only has power if it has eye contact. Otherwise, it is powerless.
