Ghost They/Them
 
The boncas in Dink's world have a very special digestive system. They perform nuclear fusion and turn their food into gold. They use this gold in their skin, to become extra tough (similar to a steelskin potion, but with gold instead of steel). This is the reason that when they do get killed, they leave a pile of gold in addition to a corpse. This effect made them popular targets for hunters, and that is not what the bonca's wanted. So they have evolved a defense system which destroys the gold when they die. A side-effect of this system is that their still living heart often remains, though. Since this is very healthy to eat, it is also popular, and so the tactic failed miserably.

This particular bonca is the only one that has survived the hunt on its species. The reason is that it spent its life eating to get more gold in its skin, and training to become stronger. That's why it's so big, tough and hard to kill.
