#060 Brugnul
Brugnuls are microscopic parasites that can be found in most environments. They are commonly found in the bodies of other creatures, but can also be found on the ground, in water, and in the air. They are extremely hard to detect, and can be difficult to remove if they are located in the brain or other vital organs, where they can cause a variety of symptoms. Brugnuls are extremely resilient and almost always outlive their hosts.
#057 Eowiz
At some point, a cat wandered somewhere it shouldn't and was forever changed with an infusion of magical energy. That cat's offspring were the first eowiz in history, which showed increased intelligence, stealth, and magical ability. Eowiz typically stay out of sight, preferring instead to use their wits and powers to influence the politics of small towns from the shadows in between long cat naps in the sun. However, some do choose to live with human families under the guise of being a normal cat.
#376 Birbanna
The Birbanna (Avibanana mysticus) stands as a distinctive and curious fictional species, seamlessly merging the features of a flightless avian and a tropical fruit. Native to the idyllic landscapes of Fruitalis Isle, Birbannas exhibit a striking resemblance to oversized bananas, adorned in resplendent yellow plumage reminiscent of sunlit bananas. Notably, their mode of communication is a phenomenon that sets them apart - employing exclusively muffled riddles to convey their thoughts. This unique linguistic trait contributes to their aura of enigma, captivating the imagination of those fortunate enough to encounter them. As arboreal inhabitants, Birbannas fulfill a role of ecological stewardship within their verdant habitat, offering veiled insights and wisdom through their cryptic dialogues. The profound blend of whimsy and depth associated with these avian enigmas has established Fruitalis Isle as a haven where intrigue and sagacity harmonize in the form of the Birbanna.
#187 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.
#313 Koben
Kobens are small, furry creatures that have sharpened claws and retractable spikes on their backs. They are generally non-violent and don't attack humans unless provoked. They are foragers that search for food for most of the day, but also enjoy digging holes in the ground to hide from larger predators. Koben often rub their back-spikes against tree trunks which results in deep, noticeable gashes. Male kobens develop a bright pink coloring later in life, while females may sometimes develop patches of white fur.
#346 An fwo dur
An fwo dur share the majority of their DNA with an extinct armadillo-like creature that used to terrorize the mountainside. Unlike their ancestors, however, an fwo dur stand upright on two legs and reach heights of over nine feet tall. These intelligent creatures tower over the more primitive species in their ecosystem, both physically and intellectually; an fwo dur often use tools, build transient infrastructure, and communicate through disjoint chromatic aberrations which can also cause confusion and dizziness in other species.
#352 Glimmerwisp
Glimmerwisps are small, fairy-like creatures with translucent, glowing wings. They have delicate, elongated features and shimmer in a variety of colors depending on their mood and surroundings. Glimmerwisps are often found in forests and meadows, where they can easily hide among the plants and flowers. They are also drawn to sources of light, such as torches and fireflies, and can often be seen flitting about in the darkness. Glimmerwisps feed on nectar and small insects, and are known for their playful and curious nature. They are also highly social creatures, often forming large communities and working together to protect their territory. Glimmerwisps have the ability to create and manipulate light, using it to communicate with each other and to create dazzling displays.
#156 Salnodist
Salnodists are water-dwelling reptiles that hunt by inching slowly towards their prey and trapping them in their mouths before they can escape. The lower jaw is supported by a flexible bone that allows for a larger mouth. They have no eyes, and instead rely on smell to locate prey. This sense of smell is quite good, and they can detect a fish from at least a mile away. Their teeth are blunt, and they are incapable of chewing, so they must swallow their food whole. They have no predators, as their tough skin is almost impossible to puncture, and it is often covered in algae that make the salnodist much less appetizing. Salnodists can grow to be over eight feet long and weigh more than two thousand pounds.
#259 Gghun'vur
Gghun'vur are small insects with 13 legs that live in the coldest frozen tundras in the world. Their internal body temperature is very close to absolute zero, which severely limits the temperatures they can survive in; harsh, freezing temperatures comparatively feel like a sunny day to them and they manage to keep warm in these environments. Gghun'vur hunt other insects and small creatures via a combination of high-speed sprinting and a powerful jump, which the gghun'vur uses to tackle and wrap its legs around its prey, instantly freezing them. An enyzme from the gghun'vur's saliva breaks down biomass within frozen hunks as they lick it, allowing this small creature to consume entire frozen meals with just its small, barbed tongue.
