#076 Hifinginn
Although the celestial cataclysm was a great catastrophe, it did introduce us to the Hifinginn and their universes—and consequently pushed forward our technology, biology, medicine, and understanding of the cosmos at least a century forward. The Hifinginn body is composed of veons instead of atoms, which is believed to be the reason why they largely ignore our universal rules of physics.
#372 Alalalalamba
The fearsome alalalalamba has a louder bark than bite, although it can do neither as a toothless mollusk at the bottom of the ocean. Alalalalambas use their immense size to intimidate would-be predators and scare prey into a paralytic submission. These creatures reproduce quickly with live births of up to twelve alalalalambas at a time, yet rarely live very long due to their lack of real defenses when pressed by unintimidated predators.
#199 Hæglre
Hæglres are large, flightless birds that spend most of their time scavenging for food in the snow-covered plains of the world. They are very social creatures that live in groups of up to twenty individuals. In the harsher winters, they will gather together to keep each other warm. Hæglres are also very territorial and will attack any creatures that get too close to their nest, but they live so far away from most other life that this rarely occurs.
#150 Toomel
Toomels are small worm-like creatures that live just below the surface of the earth. They enjoy tunneling through the ground but prefer to stay close to the surface. When it rains, toomels will emerge from the ground and spend time on the surface to avoid drowning. During this time, they're particularly vulnerable to predators because they have no effective defense mechanisms other than shifting their spherical body segments into other configurations.
#179 Zath'og
Zath'ogs are a small, muscular species of warm-blooded reptile. Their skin is a dark green and rough, with microscopic scales all over their body. They are often found in groups of ten or more, communicating through telepathy. They usually eat meat, but some have been seen to eat vegetation as well. Zath'ogs are known for their meek, tentative temperament and are sometimes considered to be the "creepy-crawly" of the tundra. They are thought to be very intelligent and capable of complex problem-solving and reasoning, although research efforts to learn more about this ancient creature have all been stunted by unrelated onsets of serious illness.
#305 Goursherpoid
Goursherpoids are aggressive reptiles that have large, flat sensors in their eye which allows them to see every wavelength of light. They have a long t tail that they can use defensively to whack their predators, and they have a bone behind their eyeballs that allows them to move their body in any direction. They are aggressive, but not territorial, and will often pick fights with other goursherpoids for sport. They will kill other animals for food, but not for sport. When fighting, their tail is used to grab their opponent and hold them in place and their claws are then used to tear their prey apart.
#251 Gorgolasa
Gorgolasas are giant carnivorous spiders with very sensitive eyes and hearing. They have a speed and agility comparable to that of a human, and they will often hunt in packs to bring down larger creatures. Despite their ferociousness, when humans have tried to domesticate them, they have proven to be extremely loyal and affectionate, often attempting to cuddle and nuzzle their masters when they get the chance. Gorgolasas produce a fine silk that is both strong and light.
#306 Gruntmrub
Gruntmrubs are small, furry, tree-dwelling creatures that are often mistaken for squirrels or frogs. They live in clans of several dozen, with the largest, strongest gruntmrub serving as the leader. They spend most of their day sleeping in trees, but they are excellent climbers and will sometimes leap from tree to tree to catch flying bugs. They are thought to be one of the earliest non-evolving species in the world and have relatively primitive brains.
#368 Avar shlin
The feared avar shlin is an intrusive pest originating from radioactive swamps and dark forests. This long wriggler is best known for the debilitating toxin it induces within the eyes of anyone that sees it. Something about the avar shlin's image projected on a human retina causes a chemical reaction that produces what has been known as avar sludge; this goo slowly dissolves the intricate structures within the eyeball, resulting in a rare form of incurable blindness where the victim can still see, yet can't understand what is being seen. Avar shlin have been known to decimate entire kingdoms from within. Despite their destructive potential, avar shlins are not aggressive by nature and prefer to avoid confrontations with larger creatures. They are nocturnal, and during the day they will burrow into the ground to avoid detection. Their diet consists mainly of small insects and rodents, but they have been known to scavenge for larger prey if necessary.
