Turlemoi
Turlemoi are the largest of the ushemoi. Solitary creatures, they wander the wilderness and the back roads in search of food or easy prey. As a turlemoi takes damage, its tendrils of flesh fuse into a crimson shell that covers its body. A turlemoi that has sustained several injuries looks like a giant with a smooth, blood-red hide.
A turlemoi's personality also changes as its body transforms. Though it starts out meek and fearful, it becomes more confident and wrathful the more damage it takes. Though other creatures might start a fight with confidence and flee when they are injured, turlemoi do the opposite. Once committed to combat, a turlemoi fights to the death.
