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.

#125 Holivax

The fabled holivax is a race of ancient colorsapping birds believed to now be extinct, but are widely referred to as exceedingly rare in ancient texts. Holivax are said to leech pigment from their surroundings, taking on hypersaturated colors reminiscent of the flora and fauna that are unfortunate enough to find themselves close enough to a holivax nest, drained of their color. It is written that holivax blood is able to cure blindness, and brightly shimmers with every color when exposed to even the littlest sliver of light.

#078 Etorg

Etorgs are the living skeletal remains of eternal giants. Although most have grown bored of life and live solitary lives atop mountains or in colossal underground caves, younger etorgs will sometimes adopt a city, curl up around it, and patiently watch generations of lives unfold. Etorgs also love sandwiches, which they occasionally make by uprooting entire forests to squish between two slabs of planetary crust.

#136 Bruvnur

Bruvnurs are large, black-and-white mammals that have demonstrated a high level of intelligence and inter-species communication. They are reknowned for their ability to quickly learn and take orders. In the wild, they are usually found in large groups that congregate in frozen cave systems. Bruvnurs are often hunted for their thick pelts, which sell for a handsome sum to the Academy.

#031 Hadgeit

Hadgeits are a rare, holy creature that are believed to be the physical manifestation of an ancient god of light. They are extremely rare and are typically found in the presence of other holy creatures. They have a variety of magical abilities, including the ability to create light and to heal themselves and others. When threatened, they can also use their light to blind their attackers and scurry away.

#211 Dromlek

Dromleks are intelligent, flightless birds that originate from a far-off galaxy where gravitational directionality frequently changes, and dromleks therefore evolved omni-directional legs to compensate for sudden directional shifts. They are able to form complex sentences, but their voices are so muffled by their many feet that they are rarely able to communicate with other animals, including other dromleks. In their free time, they enjoy making muffled music with their mouths, observing the omnidirectional growth of trees native to their planet, and going on long, difficult walks.

#196 Fa'gu'leyth

The monstrous fa'gu'leyth is an extradimensional parasite from an unknown source. Initial tests indicate the fa'gu'leyth is capable of infecting native plantlife (especially moss) with a hivemind-like syndrome. It has been determined that the fa'gu'leyth consciousness can perceive its surroundings from the point of view of any infected plant, and seems to also be capable of reproducing via spores emitted from the bright green moss that grows on its body. A mutated vascular system allows the fa'gu'leyth to perform an indirect form of photosynthesis via the algae that grows rampant in its cardiovascular systems.

#168 Magmatuna

Magmatuna is a cursed mutation of the freshwater tuna, resulting in a scalding hot internal temperature that is immediately devastating to any aquatic ecosystem. Their molten skin causes rapid evaporation of entire lakes and rivers, completely obliterating the ecosystem and resulting in nothing but burn marks and leagues of dead fish in a dry basin. The sighting of any smoke or mass-evaporation in a body of water should be immediately reported to the nearest government body.

#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.

#190 Mimcree

Originally from the far east, mimcrees have been domesticated and controlled by the government for centuries due to their unique ability to shapeshift into any animal within their line of sight. This replication has been confirmed to be accurate down to a molecular level and tests have shown that almost every animal cannot tell the difference between a shapeshifted mimcree and the real thing. Although most people aren't aware of mimcrees, many people see them every day at zoos, where zookeepers typically rent a herd of mimcrees from the government to stand in for rarer species the zoo could otherwise only afford one of. Public grants make the rental fees of mimcrees more accessible, but zoos that choose to rent any shapeshifters must hire an official handler to make sure they don't get loose, or else they might never be seen again.
