#030 Urryn-ast
Urryn-ast are always on the hunt for humans on the verge of death and will track their prey for days at a time. They consume deceased bodies whole and, in doing so, memorize a sequence of the consumed DNA as a part of their complex digestive process. After their feast, Urryn-ast will often shapeshift into the consumed creature and retrace their path back to others, hoping to get closer to their next meal.
#129 Axytun
Axytuns are a small species of landfish native to the rolling fields of the east. Although axytuns are naturally pitch black, albinism is so rampant in the species that black axytuns are often captured and resold as expensive pets. They are born in litters of ten to twenty, and are kept together in a pack by the same mother for their entire lives. Axytun packs are very loyal to each other and will aggressively squeak at any creature that threatens one of their own.
#017 Dust Angel
The dust angel is a common critter in arable desert areas. Nutrients from their saliva propagates through plants into the soil, improving yield for all plants in the vicinity. They're extremely rare and expensive, but the richest farming organizations seem to have a limitless supply to use.
#283 Dukrok
Dukroks are desert-dwelling birds that come in brown, black, and grey variants. They have long, thin legs and use their beaks like pickaxes to mine for insects in the sand. The dukrok will sometimes bury itself in the sand and wait for prey to come near before leaping up and spearing it with its beak. In some rare circumstances, dukroks will migrate to slightly cooler areas of plains or forests; seeing a dukrok outside of a desert is a good omen.
#375 Dimensional Egg
This unique egg is laid by an unknown species. If you look inside the egg, you see a reflection of another dimension, which is different from egg to egg. The use of this egg is unknown, but since magical energy emanates from it, the benefit in magic will be great. Unfortunately, these eggs are rarely found.
#255 Squirmpod
Squirmpods are large, plant-like life forms often found in or around the greater rainforest regions. They are about the size of a small human and appear like a giant tree sprout, with a gray-brown trunk and a dark green, leaf-like canopy sprouting from the top that squirmpods passively absorb ambient nutrients from. Despite their stumpy appearance, they are surprisingly very fast and agile. To get around, they bend their trunk backward, quickly growing a new leg at the base of the trunk and leave their old leg behind. These broken-off leg sections will quickly grow roots of their own into the soil and become a new squirmpod to continue their species' rapid proliferation.
#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.
#275 Foyud
Foyud are small insects that look like perched butterflies. However, foyuds are actually more closely related to arachnids that wear "wings" purely for decoration and dissuading predators. Beneath their wings, foyuds walk on dozens of tiny articulated legs. Foyuds cannot fly or even jump, and spend most of their time slowly stumbling from vegetation to vegetation in constant search of food.
#363 Wrappit
Meet the wrappit! These mischievous creatures are often found traveling by hitching rides on discarded wrapping paper or nestled inside gifts. With their small, gremlin-like bodies and scruffy fur, wrappits are sure to make a memorable impression to those who least expect them. Although they may look cute and cuddly, wrappits are known for their love of chaos and mischief. They have a particular fondness for shredding paper, whether it's the wrapping paper from a present or important documents left lying around. They particularly like paper that has been written on, and even moreso like paper which contains written fiction or worldbuilding. One fun detail about wrappits is their love of practical jokes. They have been known to hide in cupboards and jump out to surprise unsuspecting passersby, to switch the contents of gift boxes, to steal cookies and other treats, or to rearrange decorations in the dead of night. As for their diet, wrappits are known to munch on bits of paper and ribbon with their cookies, as well as the occasional piece of fruit or veggie. They have a particular fondness for pine cones and holly berries. But don't let their mischievous nature fool you — wrappits are also fiercely loyal friends. They have a special bond with those who show them kindness and respect, and will go out of their way to bring joy and laughter to their human companions.
