Hamper Hippo
The Hamper Hippo, Originally suggested by C.E. Dorsett.
The Hamper Hippo is a creature that consumes your clothes, and occasionally burps up socks. It likes to chomp on clothes, and swells when there is dirty clothes around. And will continue to chomp until it takes over the entire room!
There are various types of Hamper Hippos; Purple, Grey, Pink, Orange, Blue, Green, and not to forget the Great Rainbow Hamper Hippo. Don't worry though, the Great Rainbow one doesn't venture into homes. But he does float waiting for those on adventures.
When out adventuring be on the look out for them. With a high enough Creature and Mental skills you have higher chance of noticing and avoiding him. But should you face off check out the Great Rainbow Hamper Hippo Quest.
You do not want Hamper Hippos around, they might seem cute from a distance but they have a fearsome bite. They deal 1 point of Health Damage with a single Bite, but only on the first day. Each day you spend fighting the same Hamper Hippo damage goes up.
So day one only deals 1 potential point of health damage, but day two has 2 potential points of health damage.
The good news is they only attempt to bite once a day. They spend most of their time trying to chomp on Clothes. But the longer they stay the worse they get.
