#069 Seullen
Seullen are large, humanoid predators that contort their bodies into the optical illusion of a large bird to lure in and pick a fight with other large predators. Nearby villages can hear the tell-tale sounds of these fights from the haunting laughter of the seullen. It is unclear whether they simply always win these fights or if they laugh so hard regardless of outcome.
#089 Vieflhuse
Vieflhusen are skymantas that frequently dip below the clouds in search of food, fun, and friends. Although their eyesight is terrible, they are able to use an altered form of echolocation to sense a three-dimensional representation of the area and its inhabitants beneath them. Each Vieflhuse is able to reproduce asexually and typically carries litters of 4-8 small vieflhusen on their back after giving birth.
#193 Udeneth
The udeneth is a large, light-colored creature that somewhat resembles a llama. It has no ears or nose and must rely on sight and touch to find its food. Udeneths are found on mountainsides where they frequently burrow into the snow, where they will sleep, store food, or hide from other creatures. They are very sensitive to light and will glow when they are touched or if they feel threatened.
#062 The Acolyte
Not much is known about the acolyte, including whether it's one creature or many. However, many travelers have reported that they've witnessed the acolyte while dying in nearby deserts. The description of the experience varies wildly from person to person, but those who've lived to tell the tale all agree on one thing: the acolyte asks you in your own language to use your dying breath to explain why you should keep living. If the acolyte likes your answer, you'll breathe again.
#038 Gyrom
Gyroms are genetically-engineered giraffe variants that not only have significantly more fat and muscle, but also produce a thin protein film on their skin that absorbs back into the meat to ultimately provide more than double the protein per pound of meat compared to traditional meat competitors. Flocks of gyrom are kept in densely-packed, travel-ready "meat box" cages that take advantage of the gyrom's intentionally-designed height and slimness by lining the tall cage's ceiling with a universally-available feeder. In long-term storage, cages are typically stacked vertically with special biomech attachments that recycle food for lower cages from the excrement of upper cages.
#047 Aledharo
Aledharen are slimy, blind creatures that wander deserts in search of warm rocks to lie on, where they'll typically sunbathe for weeks at a time. When an aledharo is hungry, it'll bury its head in the dunes and extend root-like tentacles that extract nutrients and groundwater from deep in the ground. The slime aledharen uniformly secrete from their body is disgusting both in taste and smell, and is a natural predator-deterrent.
#110 Klaxon
Klaxons are large, predatory creatures originally from the planet Xaphon. They are very intelligent and have developed an advanced society which has mastered interstellar travel and can be found on many planets in the galaxy. They have a strong belief in an afterlife, and as such, put a lot of emphasis on the importance of leaving a good legacy behind. They are very sensitive creatures and have been known to go into long bouts of depression over seemingly trivial things.
#243 Banabat
Banabats are small, flying creatures of the night best known for their bright yellow coloring and unique reproduction cycle. Banabats are friendly to most species and primarily feed on tree sap by using their sharp teeth to pierce deep holes through bark. While feeding, an enzyme in their saliva mixes back into the tree, fertilizing it. After a tree is fertilized, it will start growing a patch of typically 12-14 additional banabats sprouting directly from its branches.
#218 Sihzzh
A sihzzh is an aquatic creature with a variety of strange habits related to constantly shedding its hardened skin. They usually live in large lakes or in the briny depths of the ocean, where they prowl the water in an almost never-ending search for food. Sihzzh are not social creatures and will easily fight to the death over a single fish. Luckily, even when a sihzzh is hurt, it can heal quickly by exposing its wounds to the sun; after a few hours, all injuries will be completely mended, and the sihzzh will go back to hunting.
