#045 Egalomo
Schools of cloud-sized egalomos float high in the sky, always in search of their next meal. To attack their prey, they swoop down from the sky and suffocate creatures by wrapping around them and constricting their jellyfish-like body. During digestion, the prey's blood courses through the egalomo's body, giving it a distinct red-purple color before it eventually returns to a fluffy white.
#109 Swox Majora
The swox majora is an exotic variant of the common swox moth that grows several magnitudes larger than their minora cousins. Swox majora have unwieldy, feathery wings that are heavy with the pearlescent pigments they use to attact mates. Any time the air gets too moist, swox majora are forced to lie out and sunbathe until their wings are dry enough to fly. As such, they prefer the drier climates atop mountains and largely keep to themselves, although they've evolved a wide array of defence mechanisms that have proved useful against most predators.
#108 Nulstiver
Nulstivers are large, werecreatures that are native to ancient tundra wastelands. They are generally quite docile and tend to move extremely slowly unless provoked. Despite being quite fearsome in appearance, they are typically quite friendly, often bringing the young children of nearby villages any inedible trinkets they find in the wild. Nulstivers tend to live in large groups, with a single alpha male and female leading the pack. Each nulstiver is responsible for helping raise the young of the pack in a similar way to a wolf pack or a pride of lions. While other types of werecreatures are typically solitary hunters, nulstivers will usually work together to catch large prey animals. The two most prominent features of a nulstiver are their jaws, which are lined with sharp teeth, and their thick, bony, shield-like scales that cover the top of their head and the majority of their back.
#066 Stonemaker
Stonemakers inhabit deserts, fields, and mountains. They feed largely off rock and stone, always migrating to find new flavors and consistencies. Venom injected through a stonemaker bite will also turn most organic matter into a hardened stone within a matter of minutes or hours, depending on the size and hardiness of the victim. There is no known cure for the stonemaker's turn other than a fast amputation before the venom can spread. Stonemakers often flock to the statues they make in nature, sharing their kill with others of their tribe.
#230 Pinlup
The humble pinlup is a delightful breed of small animal common in wild areas near human settlements. It's a popular activity for parents to bring their kids out to play with pinlups, providing them with bread and berries to eat; in return, pinlups bless those they play with with good luck and fortune. Pinlup tongues are bright blue and used to be heavily poached for trophies, but the species' rapid population growth over the past decade has devalued any perceived rarity or uniqueness, allowing the species to thrive even further.
#232 Adyx
Adyx are extraterrestrial beings from an unknown galaxy in another dimension. Adyx are most notable for two things: one, the black hole within each of their bodies, and two, the incredible variance in size adyx display. These creatures instantaneously shrink to the size of a pebble, then instantly grow to a being larger than our sun in the span of mere minutes. Adyx are a menace in most star systems due to the collateral damage they cause. Even if the adyx's changing size doesn't directly impact nearby celestial bodies, their gravitational fluctations will almost always have a destabilizing effect on otherwise-stable orbits and systems, sometimes causing the destruction of entire solar systems by mere accident.
#314 Ghiana
Ghiana are a distant aquatic relative to ancient starfish that pump electricity through their veins and filter water into liquid carbon, which they passively absorb. Although these colorful fish are known for their beauty (and weirdness), the color they appear as depends entirely on the emotional state of their viewer. Those with a clear conscious will see them as a light pink, while those with deep secrets will see a darker red or orange. In rare cases, some people claim to see ghiana of other colors; however, scientists are still unsure of how ghiana color-changing mechanisms work and what exactly dictates who sees what color.
#332 Miliorker
Miliorkers are small, flying creatures that live in extremely large groups and reproduce quickly. They are very social and will often share food and resources with their friends and also fight with enemies within their colony. Large miliorker populations will often convert entire trees into a nest, eventually killing the tree and resulting in a population split between miliorkers that stay behind and miliorkers that look to make a new nest. They are very curious and will often fly around to investigate things they find interesting, first buzzing from afar to build numbers and then swarming in when they have the numbers to feel safe.
#351 Volly
Volly are sturdy, four-legged mammals that live on lush mountaintops, peacefully grazing on grass, flowers, and small mushrooms. Centuries ago, volly were almost entirely domesticated and bred for their restorative tears; over time, however, the human race built up a resistance to the healing effects offered by volly tears. Eventually, the last domesticated volly were released back into the wild, where they seemingly all migrated to the highest altitudes to live in isolation among small familial groups. It is generally believed that the volly have evolved over time to retain their natural healing abilities, but only for use on other volly and not for the benefit of other species.
