#073 Pinbin Snake
Pinbin snakes are totally harmless, almost-friendly creatures. They eat grass, lick rocks for fun, and rarely grow more than a foot long. Their eyes are a delicacy among the rich.
#370 D'eggio
This fearsome matriarch stalks egg-laying creatures in swamps and wetlands until it finds the perfect time to strike, then takes over their prey's egg-laden nest as if it were their own. D'eggios will lay on top of eggs for days or weeks at a time while tendril-like spikes on their underside piece each egg with microscopic holes and inject their own DNA directly into the egg, resulting in abominable mutant creatures that are more like d'eggios than their original species, although both parts often show through. Although most d'eggio offspring don't live long enough to reproduce, some variants can completely take over an entire biome with the right genetics.
#136 Bruvnur
Bruvnurs are large, black-and-white mammals that have demonstrated a high level of intelligence and inter-species communication. They are reknowned for their ability to quickly learn and take orders. In the wild, they are usually found in large groups that congregate in frozen cave systems. Bruvnurs are often hunted for their thick pelts, which sell for a handsome sum to the Academy.
#131 Phembluf
Phemblufs are large, blue fish that live in the deeper, frozen parts of the northern oceans. Phemblufs average two to three feet long and have a long black, snout with a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth that can drill through ice with ease. Phembluf usually live in packs of 5 to 20, hunting and killing larger fish and aquatic mammals. They also enjoy eating seaweed and underwater plants. A chemical reaction in their blood keeps their skin in a perpetually-frozen state; however, upon death, their skin will melt and release their innards as a thick slime, which is extremely harmful to most aquatic ecosystems.
#133 Reeborra
Reeborras are large, herbivorous creatures native to the planet of the same name. They are closely related to the earth sloth and are often found in the desert dunes. They have short tails that consistently drip water when they're calm, which other creatures often latch on to when thirsty. Reeborras are very peaceful creatures and are often hunted by poachers for their distinctive skull and large water sac.
#295 Digo gaur
Digo gaur are a domesticated breed of zainko whose closest genetic common ancestor is the pig. Digo gaur were first discovered at the Last Refuge in the far north at the end of the second era and were bred in large numbers for food before the gaur ultimately ran wild with a power vacuum in the ecosystem. Ages ago, schoolkids used to school each other on the little-known fact that digo gaurs were the only living animal capable of surviving a decapitation. Over several millennia, digo gaurs began to evolve wilder variations of smaller and smaller heads, presently culminating in an elongated neck terminating in a hypersensitive nerve feeler.
#374 Panileaf
A rare incubating leaf. When hatched, it's roots suck up all the nutrients in the soil and destroys the plants around it. These plants hatch a hundred years after they are taken out of their mother plant. The size of the leaves depends on how far it is from its mother plant when it hatches. The closer to its mother plants, the larger the leaves. The roots of the panileaf can be used as medicine for malnutrition as well as a drug. The leaves have no purpose other than helping to reproduce. The panileaf can be eaten by animals that have a stone stomach.
#320 Blithodurc
Blithodurcs are strange creatures also known as the "silent ones." They have no mouths and instead subsist on a diet of ambient radiation and sunlight. They are about the size of a pea and are made of twisted and fused boneshards of many different animals. They move incredibly slowly and quietly and will often spend days just stretching, observing the people and other creatures of their environs. It is possible for a blithodurc to form a close bond with a sentient life form and become deeply attached to them; however, these relationships are usually short-lived, as the blithodurc will eventually become enamored with another person, who will then become the center of their attention. If a blithodurc is deeply saddened by the loss of their friend, they will sometimes stop moving and die within a few days.
#364 Broque
Broque are small, bipedal amphibians best known for their sad demeanor, deep blue skin, and their ability to camouflage into their surroundings when standing perfectly still. They are often found in moist, forested areas and are known to be shy creatures, avoiding human contact whenever possible. They are primarily nocturnal, spending the majority of their days sleeping in burrows or hiding in bushes. Broques are known for their highly developed vocalizations, using a variety of clicks, chirps, and whistles to communicate with one another. They have a strong sense of community, living in small groups and working together to find food and defend their territory. In terms of reproduction, broques are known for their elaborate courtship rituals, which involve singing, dancing, and exchanging gifts of food. They typically give birth to small clutches of eggs, which they fiercely protect until they hatch into tadpoles. The young are then cared for by the entire group, with all members taking turns hunting and gathering food for the growing broques.
