Bibo the Clown

A large, sentient, plush-like creature with a nasty habit of appearing unannounced to those who "need a little cheering up" (whatever that means to it.) Best described as a "Liminal Monster Clown". Most commonly spotted on the periphery of one's vision, or loitering around deserted, dream-like places. Its zipper chest cavity contains a seemingly endless supply of balloons and party supplies (and probably some untold horrors).

Bibo is non-hostile and doesn't seem to mean any harm, but its quiet disposition and general monstrous-ness tend to unnerve folks (after all, most people don't like being hunted down by towering, incomprehensible entities only to wake up alone covered in balloons and party streamers.) Usually communicates with gestures, short sentences and eerie calls. It doesn't emote much beyond a manic smile, and mostly just lumbers around in search of celebration and "friends" to party with.

Bibo's intelligence is hard to pin down, but it seems to have an alien mind with a single-minded interest in parties. It seeks out the perfect party-goers based on some unknown criteria, and mostly leave other people alone. It's pretty efficient at that; it's been known to sneak and ambush particularly flighty prey, slowing them down by ejecting large amount of balloons. It's quite resistant to blows and focuses on immobilizing combative victims by knocking them prone before relocating them to the party premises. With more cooperative party pals, Bibo will attempt to coax them closer with an offering of party favours while trying its best to be non-threatening (though it always looks a little too wrong, a little too still.) Doesn't engage groups when hunting, preferring to split them up to collect party-goers one by one. It's not against fleeing and trying again once a victim's guard is down, learning from its mistakes.

It'll leave its party-goers alone when the celebrations are done... but forcefully drags back attempted escapees if they try to leave before the party's over. Try not to refuse the cake or the presents or it might get agitated and double its efforts to make sure you're having fun.

There has been a least one incident where it scooped someone up into its chest cavity and ran off with them. They were found somewhere completely different a few days later. The victim was unharmed, but the experience was, apparently, horrifying.
