Kesaran Pasaran

Encyclopedia Entry:
A plant type monster with a body covered in something like white balls of fluff. Its body is extremely light and it moves by floating through the air. Its mature form has the shape of a human, but while developing, they are little more than tiny white balls of fluff. Because they look mysterious while dancing through the air, they are called “Kesaran Pasaran who invite happiness.” If you catch one, it is said to bring happiness.

Exactly opposite of what you might suppose their nickname, their fluff balls are actually powerful hallucinogenic compounds that are extremely dangerous to people. If you breath one in, your ability to think will become limited and all you will want to do is “feel happy.”  However, while they’re still developing, the hallucinogenic effect is weak, and so often times it just makes you feel “a little better.”  That’s probably how they get the nickname.

When they find a man who strikes their fancy, they descend towards him and scatter fluff in a pollen form so that he will breathe it in. Afterwards, they seek intercourse with the man for their own nourishment and to become able to make seeds. While overwhelmed by the hallucinations, the man perceives this act itself as an extension of his happiness and instead of resisting, he offers his own body in pursuit of ever more happiness. Overcome with happiness in this way, he’ll end up just continuing to copulate with them.

Through having intercourse with men in this fashion, they produce their seeds. Then they wrap them in part of their fluff and send it flying through the sky. After being launched into the sky, they drift gently while growing, eventually ending up in their mature form, the shape of a human. Believing the stories about “Kesaran Pasaran who invite happiness,” many men have caught them in their developing stage, to then end up being attacked after they mature.

It’s an extremely rare monster, so there aren’t many reports of sightings. Since they fly around everywhere, their habitat is indistinct. According to one theory, they were originally plants in the “fairy kingdom,” but nothing is known for certain.
