Chol

Chol appear out of nowhere and are gone with the wind once their food source is depleted; they are the bane of soldiers, enemy of blacksmiths, and doom of miners. They eat and eat and produce nothing of value in large quantities, destroying fine works of art and weeks of work without a thought, as they literally cannot think. The only way to rid one's metal of their presence is through the use of a finely woven lek cloth, wiping away the demons, and shaking them onto the ground; the cost of maintaining a good tool is high.

Basic Information

Chol are worm-like in anatomy, possessing no limbs, eyes, or ears, with their mouth at one end and anus at the other.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Chol consume decent to high quality metals, leaving behind corrosive slime and minuscule chunks of (albeit rich in nutrients) dirt.
