#001 Haissa

Haissa are a friendly species distantly related to frogs. They spend most of their time climbing trees to find great vantage points to observe the ongoings of life below and have been known to purposefully shake branches to drop food for hungry creatures below.

#011 Ssene

Ssenes are strange, shapeshifting creatures that configure parts of their body to mimic specific features of any creatures they see, rather than transforming into a copy of their whole body. This "bioremixing" property typically results in horrible, unnatural amalgamations depending on what creatures each ssene has seen recently.

#055 Kurobo

The charming three-legged kurobo walk isn't the only reason they caught the world's eye at their discovery. It's cute, yes, but the real mind-blower is their ability to manifest fire, seemingly at will. The blue fire burns hotter and brighter for as long as the kuobo is near, then fades into the more traditional red and cools down. The first discovered kurobo, Charles, is an internet celebrity.

#145 Starsquid

Starsquid are the only known creatures that live in the upper exosphere. They are translucent floating jellyfish that hunt on moonless nights by using their bioluminescence. When dawn comes, they ascend back into the heavens to spend the day resting and digesting. Starsquids are said to be ancient and wise, and are responsible for inspiring mankind's first attempts at flight. According to mythology, they originated as energy life forms in the early days of the universe and slowly drifted through space until being captured in our planet's gravity well.

#212 Steevlen

The steevlen is an adorable creature that lives in the forests of the world. They are small, round lion-like creatures (usually about three feet tall) that love to hug and lick. Their saliva contains a mild poison that often can be used to stun attackers. Steevlen are typically pack hunters and live in large familial groups that claim any interesting geological formations in the area as their own, where they will often keep all of their spoils.

#163 Elfog

Elfogs largely go unnoticed, as they are composed of aether and are only visible with special goggles. They are particularly fond of flowers and can most often be found in large groups among fields of flowers, although some occasionally stray toward human settlements. Although elfogs typically go unseen, they can be physically felt by those attuned with the spiritual realm and act as a supernatural conduit for those looking to commune with nature.

#293 Qaral

The qaral is a species of small tree rodent that originated from the forests of the planet Kan. They are about the size of a peanut and look very similar to small mice, but they lack a tail and have short quills instead of hair. Qarals spend most of their time hopping from branch to branch in the trees and eating insects or small animals. Qarals do not have any vocal organs, so they communicate by making small hops in order to send vibrations through the air. Qarals are very social creatures and will form large groups, sometimes numbering in the hundreds. They are also capable of forming close bonds with other creatures and seem to make friends for life.

#347 Spectrowl

This large avian is colloquially known as the "master of camouflage" because of the hard, spectral shards that cover its body. These scales contain thousands of prisms that capture ambient light and reflect a perfect representation of an uninterrupted atmosphere, effectively rendering the spectrowl invisible at most wavelengths. Because spectrowl shards are so delicate, their system camouflage can easily be damaged or disrupted in the event of a physical injury; when this happens, they have been known to reflect laser-focused beams of light that may temporarily or permanently blind those nearby. In ancient times, spectrowl were thought to be creatures from another dimension and were purposefully injured at large gatherings to produce great spectacles of light.

#367 Skalve

The skalve is a creature shrouded in legend and mystery, revered by many as a deity in the desert yet hated by others less favored. Its powerful and majestic presence is said to radiate a divine energy, and its sharp senses and unparalleled tracking abilities have led some to believe that it has a connection to the spiritual world. Skalves have a rough, sandy coat that helps them blend in with the desert and protects them from the harsh desert sun. A skalve's powerful legs allow it to traverse the dunes with ease, and its sharp claws enable it to dig for underground sources of water and food. Despite its rugged appearance, the skalve is actually quite intelligent and has been known to form close bonds with its human companions and their descendants. They are highly loyal and protective, making them valuable assets to any who respect the desert. A skalve's diet consists primarily of small rodents and lizards, but they are also known to scavenge for scraps and other sources of nourishment. They are able to go for long periods of time without water, thanks to their ability to extract moisture from the plants and insects they consume. This water is stored in bulbous sacs on the skalve's neck. In addition to their practical uses, skalves are also prized for their beauty. Their sandy coats shimmer in the sunlight, and their bright, expressive eyes seem to glow with a mysterious inner light. It is no wonder that the skalve has become such a religious figure in many desert communities.
