"The creature known only as 'Cluhd' transforms itself into a tree, small and delicate at first. However, this is merely a distraction as it is able to shoot into the clouds at a moment’s notice, casting shadows which throw any caught within them into a state of confusion.
At other times, Cluhd presents itself as a black dog, running on its hind-legs, with a chain around its throat. In this form, it will spring at the throat of the first person it meets, fling them to the ground, and vanish (yet mysteriously leave the assailed unharmed)."
