Southern Bladesnake

The southern bladesnake is an aggressive snake variant originating in the deserts of Yerht.

Most notable for their regenerative serum, bladesnakes intentionally sever the tails of their young and hold scavenged knives or other metal trinkets against the newborn's wound. Wounded bladesnakes secrete a natural healant that bonds their biostructure with the foreign objects, resulting in snakes that grow up with, for example, a knife for a tail. Despite their name, bladesnakes aren't typically aggressive and often bond with other metal objects, like spoons, pipes, and ancient debris and then learn to use their tails as specialized tools within their community.

#044 Zweifhlaightte

Zweifhlaughttes are colossal slugs from a time long before humans that have an interesting physiological compartmentalization not present in other species on the planet. The majority of the body remains buried underground in self-dug caves, while smaller pieces of the body detach and claw their way up to the surface, where they hunt for small animals. After they've consumed an excess of nutrients, the hunting appendages return underground and rejoin with their host body.

#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.

#356 Ashkmagn

There are ten known ashkmagn, and they all reside within the same volcanic cavern, which they are aggressively territorial about. This endangered species is intelligent and capable of complex speech. Although they seem to understand several human languages, there has been only one confirmed instance of an ashkmagn ever speaking to a human who lived to tell the tale.

#118 Herenella

Herenellas are seahorse-like creatures whose bodies form non-euclidean shapes. They feed on ambient temperature differences deep in the ocean. These creatures are very intelligent and will often be found in tight clusters of dozens to hundreds. Herenellas use their long, malleable snouts to communicate with each other, forming a complex language that uses matter-shifting for intonation. While herenellas can also breathe out of water, they rarely have any reason to leave their food source in the ocean depths.

#036 Darunian

Darunians were cursed by the elder gods to live forever in an observer plane, unable to be seen by or communicate with anything else on the planet. Their memory was also affected by the curse, which resulted in a long, imperfect memory that perpetually causes them debilitating grief from trying to differentiate what has really happened to the world versus what they have only imagined. It's said that the first darunians were a legendary band of adventurers with great hubris that found themselves face to face with a jealous god who transformed them into the furry creatures they are now — and forever will be.

#272 Gwievft

Gwievft are large, aquatic eels that are typically found in underwater mycelium caverns, although they sometimes explore more open waters. Gwievft have an extremely venomous bite that can completely paralyze dolphins, sharks, and humans within hours and lead to death shortly after. During this time, the gwievft toxin has opium-like effects in the victim that work to keep it calm and avoid struggling. Gwievft toxins have been successfully extracted by natives for use in sacrificial and ceremonial drinks for centuries, although ranching them is an extremely dangerous job.

#182 Artik-un

Artik-un are hoofed creatures domesticated for their speed, strength, and intelligence. Artik-un have an excellent sense of balance and can leap twenty times their height in the air, where they're also capable of contorting their body in response to wind pressure to ensure they always land hooves-down. An artik-un reaches full adult development after three years and have an average lifespan of 10 to 20 years.

#318 Flyx-in-ruck

For the longest time, the flyx-in-ruck didn't have an official name, largely due to the effective camouflage and stealth techniques this snake-like reptile employs. Each flyx-in-ruck is unique, adopting a sleep pattern, hunting strategies, and food preference depending on factors in its environment. Some flyx-in-ruck migrate seasonally, and some migrate so often they may as well be called nomads. Although all flyx-in-ruck are vastly different, they do share a few common traits: they are always fast, always quiet diggers, always intelligent, and always immediately deadly to their unsuspecting prey. It is said that once you see a flyx-in-ruck, it is already too late.

#264 Vibulant

Vibulants are massive insects. A single vibulant can be up to 10 feet long and weigh up to half a ton. They can be found in many different environments, including deserts, mountains, and fields. Despite their size, vibulants are generally harmless to humans and will often avoid them if given the chance. Vibulants have limited intelligence and are kept as livestock in some places.
