Welfs are wolf-like creatures that reside in the Elven Forest. They are seemingly canines, however this is a trick the Welfs use to lull people into a false sense of security.
Biology
Welfs have black fur that is tipped in blue. The blue of their fur glows, often revealing a Welf's location in the dark. Their eyes, the same hue, have the same glowing property to help them decipher their way in the pitch black of night.
Its paws can feel the ground beneath it and can spring the Welf into the air if it so desires.
The Mouth
They have a mouth at the front of their face, where most canines would. It has sharp teeth that can tear through even the trees around them, and a small dog-like tongue. The only problem with this mouth is the simple fact that it is not real.
Rather, it is not the primary mouth of the Welf.
The true, main mouth of a Welf is the strange saddle on its back. It has this to trick people into riding atop it. Those that do will find these to be lips, which open up to a new mouth that begins to swallow them. It has teeth as sharp as a newly smithed blade and a tongue that can elongate great distances, which it wraps its prey in as it eats them.
Teleportation
Welfs have an innate ability, similar to the Stemine that it shares its habitat with, to teleport. Many say the Stemine and the Welf, both made by Selene, were made to be of one similar family, simply making a Welf the animal version of a Stemine and a Stemine the flower of a Welf. There is no clear evidence for this, and it is pure speculation.
Welfs can teleport seemingly anywhere they are aware of. This means somewhere they have seen before, been to before, or can see now.
This is a defense mechanism. Whenever they are in danger, they will teleport either far away form danger or into a more advantageous position to deal with the danger. This makes it nearly impossible to attack a Welf, as it will teleport away before it can be hit.
