#009 Rappariffian
Rappariffians have never had a confirmed sighting, but cultures throughout history have always told stories of some form of them, albeit with different names. These spectral presences weave themselves through dimensional planes, occasionally passing through our physical dimension. Stories are inconsistent on whether they're completely silent or screaming banshees.
#106 Sidjif
The sidjif is a large, snakelike creature that is commonly used as a mount for the orcs and goblins of the world. Their massive bodies can grow up to 60 feet in length, and are powerful and muscular enough to support the weight of ten riders. They have four hearts, a large mouth, and several eyes that can be found on their head, neck, and body. They are very trusting and have been known to forge strong bonds with the riders that they are paired with. Their name comes from the sound that they make when they are pleased or hungry, which follows a short, warbling beat.
#102 Alale
The alale is a muscular creature the size of a human that lives in swamps and marshes. They are very territorial and will use their ability to manipulate water to create hazardous barriers to keep other animals out of their territories. Alales are capable of budding off more of themselves to keep their species alive and thrive in areas after driving all other life out.
#026 Oroch
Orochs are more closely related to an octopus or squid than any known spider species, yet are commonly mistaken for spiders. Luckily, their bright-red color serves as a loud warning of how deadly orochs can be due to the way they hunt. Once they've locked onto a target, some orochs can spend weeks following and studying a prey before they strike. The only known deterrent is to leave out a small platter of blueberries, which orochs love.
#184 Urk
Urks are enormous creatures that look like a cross between a turtle and a dolphin. They have strong, boney shells and powerful fins they use to propel themselves through the water. Their shells also contain thousands of chitinous pearls, and they are hunted by poachers for this reason. Hunters believe the delicious urk meat also holds restorative properties. Urks typically live for hundreds of years and only reproduce once during their lifetime.
#291 Vorivo'r
The vorivo'r is a small alpine creature that lives in the snowy mountains. It is covered in burred fur, with a small round body and a large head. It is about the size of a human hand, and feeds on small insects and worms. Vorivo'rs run with a distinctive, scuttling gait that is easy to mistake for a spider. During warmer winters, vorivo'rs will burrow deep underground to hibernate. While hibernating, they snore so loudly the ground may rumble at times.
#293 Qaral
The qaral is a species of small tree rodent that originated from the forests of the planet Kan. They are about the size of a peanut and look very similar to small mice, but they lack a tail and have short quills instead of hair. Qarals spend most of their time hopping from branch to branch in the trees and eating insects or small animals. Qarals do not have any vocal organs, so they communicate by making small hops in order to send vibrations through the air. Qarals are very social creatures and will form large groups, sometimes numbering in the hundreds. They are also capable of forming close bonds with other creatures and seem to make friends for life.
#340 Skaða
The skaða are an ancient race of corrupted energy, capable of destroying entire planets in the blink of an eye. It is said that skaða lose one of their countless eyes every time they witness the death of another universe, and the Elder skaða is said to have only one eye remaining. Although skaða are capable of basic speech and throat singing, the sound they produce can only be heard by young girls. Skaða meat is a delicacy in the northernmost continent, where the once-diverse skaða populations have largely all migrated to.
#177 Luneptera
The luneptera are a rarely-seen race of intelligent humanoid beetle that claim to be related to fairies. Not much is known about lunepteras other than recorded observations from times when they were more common to see, but it is written that their skin is covered in chitin that only reflects moonlight, making them invisible during the day (and on moon-less nights). Luneptera are a generally friendly race, although they've had some notable issues with mankind in the past. Luneptera also love stealing and wearing human hats and clothing, especially during their holiday celebrations; they seem to be particularly fond of long dresses, overcoats, and tall hats.
