Absurds are distant relatives of the arise. While usually extremely large, smaller pieces are pulled off and sold in capsules as pets. Absurds generate in locations they find "absurd" such as busy cities, traffic jams, and office spaces. They are non hostile, but their blank, yet judgmental, gaze as well as their whispering of the word "absurd" causes an awful feeling to people who once saw themselves and their life as normal. These existential breakdowns are, thankfully, short lived.
