#015 Verdebird
Weirdly, verdebirds glow a bright green color while also only being visible in the direct shadows of light passing through green-tinted glass, making it a rarity to actually observe one outside of controlled conditions. It's said that witnessing one is a terrible omen for things to come, but some groups of people worship them as a harbinger of change and carry shards of green glass with them wherever they go.
#061 Dirb
Dirbs are flightless birds that wander fields looking for seeds and other small scraps of food. Their legs are incredibly thin and often crack or break with the slightest bump or stumble, but they heal quickly. Dirb meat is bland but filling and they are easy prey for anything that's hungry.
#033 Crefih
The Crefih is an intelligent and tricky creature that attracts prey by reforming a tentacle-like appendage into the shape of a vulnerable animal. The body employs a natural camouflage and springs to attack anything that strays close to its trap. It's said that Crefih are nature's original tricksters.
#231 Ephflynne
Ephflynnes are enormous creatures that swim through the air at speeds of up to one thousand miles per hour. They're completely translucent, but they can change the wavelength of light they reflect to blend in with their surroundings or to make themselves visible. They eat massive amounts of vapor every day, which they track and locate by following a pheremone known as sugreth. An ephflynne can grow to be ten miles long and can live for hundreds of years.
#210 Meldor
As the national animal of a small, farmer-run republic on their planet, the meldor is a peaceful and generally friendly creature that can be found minding its own business around the fields and forests of the region. While their legs have lost the strength and power that they used to have in the past, they have learned to adapt by using their surprisingly strong wings to lift their bodies into the air, becoming warriors that fight with the wind itself! A fleet of meldors are always a force to be reckoned with!
#256 Ifrit Wyrm
The fabled ifrit wyrm is a colossal demon sandworm that makes its home underneath large deserts. Its immense body temperature superheats the desert's environment and can sometimes result in wildfires or thick layers of glass forming beneath the sand. Ifrit wyrms tunnel quickly and eat anything they can catch, which is often easy to do with their geovibrational feelers. Ifrit wyrms have no known predators and can often be seen fully engulfed in flame, which they use to cook their prey. It is unknown how ifrit wyrms reproduce, but seeing one wyrm is often an indicator that several more are nearby.
#292 Volkan
The volkan is a massive creature, about the size of a buffalo, but with four legs and a tail. It is covered in thick black fur and has a massive mouth full of razor-sharp teeth. It has a pair of horn-like structures on its head and its eyes are usually glowing red or yellow in color. Volkans are solitary creatures and will rarely tolerate the presence of other volkans. They are extremely territorial and will fight to the death over their territory if they encounter another of their kind. When a battle between two volkans is about to begin, they will first do a series of complicated dances, where they will leap, kick, and stomp around the battleground.
#330 Jibbin
Jibbins are interesting tundra-dwelling creatures best known for their rapid growth and shrinking, with their size determined almost entirely by their mood (and most recent meal). Although they generally keep a scarce diet of nuts and berries scavenged from the snow, jibbins that find themselves too excited for too long will grow to an unsustainable size for all but the most fruitful of environments. When hunting jibbins, many locals will intentionally antagonize the creature to induce rapid growth before killing it, resulting in more spoils per kill. When left alone in a calm environment, a jibbin can live up to ten years.
#198 Hoomer
Hoomers are the descendants of a group of people who took part in an experiment involving transtemporal teleportation. This experiment resulted in the occupants of the teleportation chamber being displaced in time, transforming them into the hoomers. The hoomers' bodies are humanoid in shape, but they have no visible mouths, nose, or ears. Instead, they have a single eye in the center of their chests. They have arms and long antennae embedded within vents that cover them. Hoomers speak by means of complex hand gestures in a language that requires an acute understanding of spacetime and Leibniz curves.
