These creatures are large and fearsome, though in many cases are domesticated by an unknown alien race. Nil'rik emerged from the wrecked of an alien craft, the body of it's pilot was never recovered. The creature did not fight nor attack the little creatures that shot at it. Bullets ricocheted off it's tough hide as it started at the screaming creatures waving loading booming cylinders at it. Instead of attack it ran off, escaping the various military vehicles looking for it... there were some overturned Humvees, but no deaths. In one instance the creature had stopped and ripped open a crashed vehicle. The occupant had been watched over until the little screaming creatures with boom sticks showed up. It ran off again into the shadows sometimes seen by the occupants of the nearby town.

In a few other instances the creature had ripped through a burning home in front of a lot of frightened spectators. The creature would move away from the burning home unscathed, had opened it's jaws and gently dropped a little shaking body to the ground. As if showing maternal affection it would nudge the body towards the crowd with it's snout. As fire hoses were turned onto it, it would run off into the woods again waiting for the next time it would be needed.
