#139 Ozanif

Ozanifs are a large variant of the common swamp bear. They are covered in a thick, matted fur that is resistant to water and provides excellent warmth in cold conditions. Ozanifs have s a long, pointed nose and sharp teeth which constantly ooze a sweet honey-like substance. It is a carnivorous creature that hunts insects and small birds. Ozanifs don't hibernate, but they do spend most of their time in their dens during the winter months. They are very territorial and will attack if they feel threatened or to protect their young. In the summers, ozanifs make a strange, chirping sound and will often spend long hours rolling around in the muddy swamps.

#043 Volcrano

Every volcano has at least one volcrano maintaining it. They do their best to keep out of sight but volcranos are bulky and slow. Volcanos as a species have been fate-bound to feed the volcanic lava until the end of time in order to keep it from seeking food outside of the volcano. It's the instinct they have immediately upon birth and it's the instinct they'll still be mindlessly striving for upon their inevitable death.

#055 Kurobo

The charming three-legged kurobo walk isn't the only reason they caught the world's eye at their discovery. It's cute, yes, but the real mind-blower is their ability to manifest fire, seemingly at will. The blue fire burns hotter and brighter for as long as the kuobo is near, then fades into the more traditional red and cools down. The first discovered kurobo, Charles, is an internet celebrity.

#208 Marvenken

Marvenkens are sea creatures that prey specifically on sailors and passengers to small- to medium-sized boats. Although they typically dwell near the bottom of whatever body of water they've called home, any time a marvenken finds something shiny along the ocean floor they will float closer to the surface in search of boats and unassuming victims. By holding the shiny object in their mouth, they'll reflect sunlight towards the boat to draw attention to itself and hold the object just beneath the surface, as if offering it to the ship's passenger. If their prey reaches into the water to grab the object, the marvenken will quickly wrap a dozen tentacled appendages around whatever they can and pull their dinner into the water, where it is quickly dragged back down into the depths and never seen again.

#241 Witango

Witango are large, sturdy crystalline beasts that spend most of their days laying down and enjoying a warm bath in temperate swampwater. They have a hard time getting out of their baths because they are so comfortable, so they employ the help of their children (witangolions) to pull them out when their bath is over. When a witango leaves their bath spot, they typically leave behind an assortment of subterrean crystals that spread from their body, which sell for large amounts to most traders.

#245 Golden Chotlack

The golden chotlack is a small mammal that used to live in the jungles and woodlands of the planet, but has since wholly migrated to caves underground. It is known for its nocturnal habits, its ability to use echolocation, and its ability to weave golden thread out of most other materials. It usually lives alone. Chotlacks have learned to live as far away from human settlements as they possibly can; any time they are found they are immediately hunted and imprisoned. Chotlacks speak in a high pitch and volume, using a mix of squeaking, chirping, and yelling.

#175 Nemmen

Nemmen are small, purple fish that frequent reefy areas and the deep sea, but are also commonly caught to resell as consumer pets. They are soft to the touch and like to be pet by their owners, unlike most other fish. When nemmen are happy, they blow small bubbles that they play with, often swimming circles around each bubble. Most nemmen live two or three years.

#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.

#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.
