#097 Whalewalker
These hulking creatures once dominated the long-lost oceans. As the heat wave intensified and oceans began to evaporate, the first whalewalker ancestors adapted their way onto land. Whalewalkers lay down and open their gigantic mouth, then remain still for days at a time to lure in bugs and other small animals before chomping down for a calorie-packed bite. They live lonely, frequently-migrating lives.
#082 SLP-001
SLP-001 is the codename for the first viable new species designed at the [redacted] facility in [redacted], Virginia. Copies of SLP-001 have a bright, orange skin designed to be easily seen in low-light conditions, and eight octopus-like arms that can [redacted] a victim with a single touch. In the lab, they were made to wear a custom-made [redacted] to prevent any contact with their skin, especially when undergoing [redacted]. Any reports that claim an SLP-001 has escaped from the lab are completely unfounded and false.
#130 Sylveph
Sylvephs are loud, obnoxious sheep with fine, silk fur. Farmers despise their constant bleeting and the incredible mess they make in the field. Although they slowly produce silver thread, their spoils must be thoroughly washed and disinfected to prepare them for use. Sylvephs prefer to eat mushrooms and rotting biomass.
#140 Fydern
The fydern is a green creature roughly the size of a human fingernail. It has twelve short legs and two wiggling antennae, which it uses to catch microscopic bugs. Its body is covered in a thick, greasy layer of skin and fat. If a fydern is taken out of water, its legs will fold in, its antennae will become rigid, and it will quickly become a rock and die. Solid fydern are sometimes polished and sold as gemstones to those who don't know better, as they don't begin to stink until months after dying.
#119 Ossl
Ossles are small creatures that are found in warmer tundras. They are about the size of a small cat and resemble a cross between a tortoise and a beetle, albeit with two large, boney antlers that end in sharp claws. Despite their fearsome appearance, they are actually quite timid, unless they are provoked. You can tell the age of an ossl by the number of rings in their antlers, which grow thicker every year until they're too heavy to carry.
#201 Jigbat
Jigbats are large insects that resemble blue bats. They can be found throughout the world's forests and feed on insects, small birds, and berries. They sting their prey with a powerful paralytic venom that stains the skin blue, which they often use when they are hunting together in groups of several dozen. After taking down prey for food, jigbats will often turn on each other and fight over their share, often stinging other jigbats in the process. Jigbats are immune to their own species' venom, but if a jigbat has been stung, it will become paralyzed for several days and will be unable to eat or defend itself from future attacks. During this time, they will often hide in caves or other natural openings until their strength returns.
#248 Yawelt
Yawelts are small reptiles that live in hot, dry deserts. They are extremely fast and use this speed to escape from predators. When a yawelt is hungry, it will enter a trance and move in whatever direction it is facing until it finds food. Even if it is surrounded by food and water, a yawelt can continue to move for days if they aren't directly in front of food. Because of their extreme tunnel vision, several popular children's stories about focus, drive, and relaxation are based on the common yawelt.
#263 Vindsmen
After the devastating CK-295 meteor impact, what little life survived on planet P-192-856B had to radically evolve in order to survive the planet's new radioactive atmosphere. Vindsmen were once a variant of the common earth ape whose DNA began to diverge shortly after being seeded onto the planet; however, the few changes that occurred prior to CK-295 were dwarfed by its impact. Vindsmen have largely migrated from forests and jungles to caves deep underground, where they eat mushrooms, small plants, and insects. Most notably, vindsmen have evolved an amorphous muscular system that allows them not only to reshape their body at will, but also to combine with other vindsmen into a singular entity. Although rare, some sightings have reported gigantic vindsmen clusters of hundreds of connected apes. Vindsmen have a short lifespan due to an extremely high frequency of cancer.
#341 Karystel
Karystels are noted for their beauty, grace, and quickness. Their long, lithe bodies move like eels, and they have scales in shades of iridescent purple, blue, and green. They are very popular in the arts, both among dancers and musicians. Baby karystels look like tadpoles, but significantly grow in size over a maturation period of two years. It is not understood why some karystels develop human-like hands and some develop large tentacles for arms.
