#025 Baibi
This small monkey navigates long distances by utilizing the bug-like wings on its back and can commonly be seen flying from forest to forest during the day. Their silhouette in flight mimicks those of birds, but birdwatchers with an eye for what to look out for claim it's a good omen to spot one.
#200 Norpin
Norpins are small, fluffy creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a mouse. They have short, spindly legs and a long, windy tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, brown fur. This little creature is notable in nature for having no bones in its legs and very few bones in its body; rather than relying on a skeletal system for bodily structure, norpins have very strong muscles that hold their shape and enable an extremely wid range of movement. Norpins are also very intelligent and have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds, including many of those emitted from the earth during natural geological events. Norpins are generally peaceful creatures but are known to become very violent when threatened. They live in large nests with others and spend most of their time foraging for food.
#157 Spacebunnies
Spacebunnies are planet-sized pests of the universe that burrow into spacetime tunnels, leaving catastrophic black holes behind. Seeing a spacebunny in the sky is the worst omen someone can ever hope to see, both because their presence foreshadows an inevitable slide of the planet into the black hole's gravitational pull and also because the sight of a space bunny in the sky causes all who see it to go completely and irrevocably insane, which has razed entire civilizations long before their planet was eventually destroyed.
#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.
#287 Chillopiar
Chillopiars are aquatic animals that live in the depths of the ocean. They are composed of many small pieces of coral and sponge, which can be detached and reattached by contracting muscles in their bodies. If a chillopiar is injured and loses a piece of itself, it can regenerate it by eating another chillopiar. They are highly social, and they communicate with each other by emitting and receiving different frequencies of light, including some on a spectrum invisible to humans.
#284 Senjfisk
Senjfisk use thousands of microscopic limbs to move sand around them, enabling them to effectively swim through sand and loose dirt. These nocturnal carnivores also undergo a biological stasis while sleeping, which completely stops all but their most vital autonomous functions, including breathing. On particularly hot desert days, senjfisk will often sleep in any oasis nearby, sometimes sleeping underwater for days or weeks at a time.
#309 Vargon
Vargons are enormous, thick-skinned reptiles that form the natural apex predator in the kingdom of Skulnir. They are visibly descended from several different creatures and have four clawed feet and feathery wings, which are hidden beneath their thick, leathery skin. They have a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth and a long, whip-like tail that they use to hunt prey and defend themselves. Vargons are incredibly tough and muscular and will kill anything in their path; however, they are also very clever and will usually avoid confronting creatures larger than themselves, unless they are extremely hungry or highly provoked.
#347 Spectrowl
This large avian is colloquially known as the "master of camouflage" because of the hard, spectral shards that cover its body. These scales contain thousands of prisms that capture ambient light and reflect a perfect representation of an uninterrupted atmosphere, effectively rendering the spectrowl invisible at most wavelengths. Because spectrowl shards are so delicate, their system camouflage can easily be damaged or disrupted in the event of a physical injury; when this happens, they have been known to reflect laser-focused beams of light that may temporarily or permanently blind those nearby. In ancient times, spectrowl were thought to be creatures from another dimension and were purposefully injured at large gatherings to produce great spectacles of light.
#351 Volly
Volly are sturdy, four-legged mammals that live on lush mountaintops, peacefully grazing on grass, flowers, and small mushrooms. Centuries ago, volly were almost entirely domesticated and bred for their restorative tears; over time, however, the human race built up a resistance to the healing effects offered by volly tears. Eventually, the last domesticated volly were released back into the wild, where they seemingly all migrated to the highest altitudes to live in isolation among small familial groups. It is generally believed that the volly have evolved over time to retain their natural healing abilities, but only for use on other volly and not for the benefit of other species.
