#005 Thabu
Thabus are hulking creatures of ancient history that have survived over time by melding with mountains and hibernating. They awake every thousand or so years to see if the world is a better place, but a thabu invariably goes back to sleep after each short period awake. No one is sure what exactly they're waiting for.

#137 Gungon
Gungons are medium-sized primates that live in the colder forests of the world. Their white fur is very dense, waterproof, and home to many insect populations. The colorful plants that grow out of their backs serve as camouflage in the spring, after the snow has gone. The plants are edible, but are also able to store water that the creature can drink in times when it cannot find nearby water. Gungons loves to eat berries and can often be found in forests picking berries with its long prehensile tail. When a gungon feels threatened, it will stand on its hind legs, shake out a cloud of white pollen, and roar as loud as possible in order to scare off any would-be attacker.

#081 Eieliez
Eieliezen are knee-high, bird-like creatures that are known for their remote eye, which they can often be seen holding but will also leave behind in their nest to watch their young with while they're out hunting or gathering. Not much is known about how an eieliez is able to see from their completely-disconnected eye. It is believed that they are also capable of growing additional eyes over time and simultaneously seeing from multiple eyes at a time.

#207 Skeighnog
Skeighnogs are vicious and bloodthirsty creatures from the vast forests of the world. They are small, roughly the size of a small dog but with a long, scaly tail and a bulbous, pouchy stomach. They are predators and will eat anything they can catch and fit in their mouths, but their favorite prey is the klelag, which they hunt by burrowing into the thick grasses of the nests. When a skeighnog attacks its prey, it usually does it from above, leaping down on its target and impaling them with its long, curved claws. A skeighnog can run very fast and has the speed to catch a human, but they are more likely to feast on their fallen prey until they've eaten their fill before chasing anything else.

#169 Havough
The large havough bird towers above trees, hills, and mountains with its imposing stature. Although havoughs typically fly into outer space to hunt for food, they often prefer to relax for weeks at a time in our atmosphere between meals. Although havough aren't malicious, they are dangerous simply due to their sheer size: the wrong footstep can crush entire towns, a gust of wind from their wings can blow over structures, and the sound of their mating call can rupture eardrums from a close enough distance. For these reasons, havoughs are typically classified as a pest even though there is nothing that can be done to shoo them away.

#323 Aboccaria
Aboccarias are shapeshifting, sentient blobs that can be found on water-covered worlds. They are about the size of a small house and eat all of the life forms that live in their body of water. They can grow several times larger in the spring due to their ability to absorb the DNA of all of the creatures that they eat. They have been known to control the minds of surrounding creatures and will often lure them into their bodies.

#329 Alsjepsel
The alsjepsel is a large reptile-mammal hybrid that frequents acidic swamps in the southern hemisphere. The alsjepsel were first discovered by Nin adventurers that mistook them for a demon and started a century-long crusade to wipe them out, which left a nearly extinct population. These days, alsjepsel have mostly been able to repopulate, but keep to themselves and stay far away from humans when possible. When threatened they may attack, but otherwise the alsjepsel is a generally docile herbivore.

#322 Ungarmel
When a creature is near, an ungarmel on the prowl will curl up in a ball and hover above the ground, doing its best to blend in with the environment in order to catch its prey unaware. When the time is right, the ungarmel will attack by releasing the creature inside it that drinks blood. After a successful hunt, the creature returns and eventually shares its spoils from inside the ungarmel.

#355 Vilagoth
Vilagoths are an intelligent species of semi-aquatic jellies. They have large eyes and at least four tentacled arms with webbed microfingers, and they can breathe underwater for up to ten days at a time before needing to resurface. The males have small tusks that grow from their lower jaws, but the females don't have any. They are very friendly and docile creatures that like to spend their time floating around in the water and playing simple games with each other. They aren't very strong, but they are fast and can swim at speeds of up to 75 km/h. They are also quite intelligent and have been known to teach themselves how to read and write using sunken ships.
