The monster is now added:

Pictures don't really do it justice, but it looks amazing in motion (I think I'll have to upload a little video of it at some point). I kept getting goosebumps watching it sprint behind the trees and appear from the fog. Big thanks to everyone who helped making this a reality!
The AI is also pretty much done, except that it can't get past curves in the path yet (it just walks directly at the player and gets stuck behind the trees if the player goes past a curve). Won't be hard to fix though, I'll just make it walk it towards an adjacent forest tile that is closest to the player.

As soon as the Player turns to look at it or blinks, The glowing disappears. Could help as a build up until the Monster spawns. Not sure If this has already been suggested.
How it works now is that it keeps appearing outside the player's field of view, and sprints off when the player looks at it. Glowing eyes might be a good addition; I think I'll try adding a second, full-bright eye texture on it, it'd probably look better than just a sprite of the eyes.
. I'm preparing my anus for furious 860 rape.
