#045 Egalomo
Schools of cloud-sized egalomos float high in the sky, always in search of their next meal. To attack their prey, they swoop down from the sky and suffocate creatures by wrapping around them and constricting their jellyfish-like body. During digestion, the prey's blood courses through the egalomo's body, giving it a distinct red-purple color before it eventually returns to a fluffy white.
#092 Arochngiap
Arochngiaps are sentient, blind masses of undeveloped meat found deep underground and in caves. They move slowly and grow random limbs, with records showing anywhere from 0-10 arms and legs. They can often be found in small pools of still water, absorbing nutrients through their skin.
#124 Jotam
Jotams are small, furry creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a large mouse. They have large ears and a long, boney tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, gray fur. Jotams have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds. Jotams are generally peaceful creatures, but are known to become very violent when provoked. They live in extremely large groups and spend most of their time foraging for food.
#137 Gungon
Gungons are medium-sized primates that live in the colder forests of the world. Their white fur is very dense, waterproof, and home to many insect populations. The colorful plants that grow out of their backs serve as camouflage in the spring, after the snow has gone. The plants are edible, but are also able to store water that the creature can drink in times when it cannot find nearby water. Gungons loves to eat berries and can often be found in forests picking berries with its long prehensile tail. When a gungon feels threatened, it will stand on its hind legs, shake out a cloud of white pollen, and roar as loud as possible in order to scare off any would-be attacker.
#233 Pewarra
On the plains near the city, you can find the wingless pewarras that live in large herds, best known for their concave skeleton and recognizable gait. When threatened by a predator, pewarras will huddle together in a large circle and take turns making noises to scare the predator away. Depending on the herd and their range of possible sounds, this defense mechanism can be extremely effective — or ineffective.
#321 Sathera
Sathera are peaceful, ethereal creatures that feed on the energy of lightning storms. They are mostly invisible in most light spectrums, but when visible, they appear as circular fields of color that are constantly shifting. They tend to stay high in the atmosphere and will often be present during large storms; however, they occasionally kneel down to the planet to drink from lakes and rivers.
#114 Rolglu
Rolglu are large, bristly bears that never stop migrating. They have six legs, detachable paws, and stand about eight feet tall. They are herbivores and will often follow farmers' plows, eating the freshly dug roots and other plants that are uncovered. Rolglu tend to be very friendly and will often secretly crawl into merchant boats to be carried around the world; however, their size makes them dangerous to keep aboard and merchants will often push them into the ocean upon discovery, forcing them to swim back to land. While they can be found anywhere around the world, they largely prefer the cold tundras where their thick pelt doesn't cause them to overheat.
#345 Phang'ul
The feline-like phang'ul are a solitary, nomadic race that roams the lands in search of prey. They are known for their sleek, muscular build and their piercing, intelligent eyes. Their thick, luxurious fur comes in a range of colors, from deep blacks and browns to vibrant oranges and blues. In terms of behavior, phang'ul are skilled hunters and highly intelligent, with a natural aptitude for strategy and tactics. They are also fiercely independent, preferring to roam the lands on their own rather than live in communities. When it comes to reproduction, phang'ul have a unique mating ritual in which the male must prove his worth to the female by completing a series of abstract challenges. If he succeeds, the female will allow him to mate with her, after which she will give birth to a litter of up to four cubs. The phang'ul have a strict hierarchy within their society, with the strongest and most intelligent individuals rising to the top. They are also known for their strong magical abilities, which they use to protect themselves from predators and to enhance their hunting skills. Despite their solitary nature, phang'ul are not completely isolated from other races. They have been known to form temporary alliances with other creatures, particularly when faced with a common enemy. They are also skilled traders, and are often sought out by other races for their stockpiles of food and other resources.
#183 Portal Jian
Portal jians are large, immobile creatures that grow in cultivated farmlands and exhibit a physical mystery still unexplained by science: the portal jian's body always contains at least one large hole or gateway that can be passed through for instantaneous travel to a nearby jian's portal. Scientists are unsure how this instantaneous travel works scientifically, but researchers are beginning to map out how a jian decides which other jian(s) to connect to. Because so little is known about the portal jian, the species' existence is tightly controlled and monitored by the government in secure labs; until they were confident there were no jians left in the wild, the public sector was filled with paid mercenery work to locate and capture these mysterious creatures.
