Creature #20: Nifoloa
A Samoan insect with one sharp tooth the size of a man's finger, the Nifoloa's bite results in death unless medicine is given immediately. No puncture wound is visible but the victim suffers greatly. After the medicine is given, the tooth indentation will show up. The Nifoloa follows lone people walking home. If a wayfarer returns with the shivers and the healer is sent for, the medicine is never referred to by name, but called 'the medicine on the chief's tooth'. Nifoloa is cunning, however, and if he hears that a healer is searching for the right medicine, he will immediately strip the herbs from the ground that grow nearby.
