#069 Seullen
Seullen are large, humanoid predators that contort their bodies into the optical illusion of a large bird to lure in and pick a fight with other large predators. Nearby villages can hear the tell-tale sounds of these fights from the haunting laughter of the seullen. It is unclear whether they simply always win these fights or if they laugh so hard regardless of outcome.
#011 Ssene
Ssenes are strange, shapeshifting creatures that configure parts of their body to mimic specific features of any creatures they see, rather than transforming into a copy of their whole body. This "bioremixing" property typically results in horrible, unnatural amalgamations depending on what creatures each ssene has seen recently.
#079 Skrayll
Most Skraylls live in the darkest forests, eating shrubs and rodents, although those that live a long time often grow larger and larger. Skrayll bones are made of a soft, rubbery substance that allows them to change over time depending on use, not unlike how muscles grow and shrink. Their rubbery bone material also secretes a slimy substance that hardens into a thick hide when exposed to air, which skyraylls must constantly shed or else they risk mobility problems and/or full paralysis.
#131 Phembluf
Phemblufs are large, blue fish that live in the deeper, frozen parts of the northern oceans. Phemblufs average two to three feet long and have a long black, snout with a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth that can drill through ice with ease. Phembluf usually live in packs of 5 to 20, hunting and killing larger fish and aquatic mammals. They also enjoy eating seaweed and underwater plants. A chemical reaction in their blood keeps their skin in a perpetually-frozen state; however, upon death, their skin will melt and release their innards as a thick slime, which is extremely harmful to most aquatic ecosystems.
#027 Mipurd Ballow
Mipurd Ballows are a small, primitive species of salamander that are found in the deepest cavities of melting ice sheets. They are extremely hardy and can survive in almost any environment, but they are slow-moving and are often considered weak by other living creatures. Mipurd Ballows are also extremely territorial and will fight to the death to defend their territory, which rarely goes well for them.
#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.
#299 Galla sprii
The galla sprii's official origin is unknown, but scientists believe it was genetically created centuries ago for use in agriculture. Galla sprix are hulking, two-headed mammals that keep a strict, independent diet per head. Farmers nowadays use them for a natural cross-cultivation of biofruit after introducing each sprii head to a specific fruit. Galla sprix are then free to roam the fields freely, where they also keep large predators and thieves away.
#302 Aglolof
Aglolof is a large, winged creature that lives at extremely high altitudes, often above the clouds. It has a long, thin body and enormous wings, attracting many would-be riders to attempt to climb up to their lair, but few survive the journey, both because of the difficulty of their ascent and their host's violent reactions to their presence. They feed on insects and small mammals, and their excrement is often used by shoemakers to strengthen leather. They are born in clutches of 15-17 eggs, and will lash out at any perceived threat to their young.
#096 Cerasuc
Cerasucs are large, furry mammals that live in deep caves and are often found in groups of 10 or more. They have a black coat and antlers that are prized for their ability to reflect light and light up dark spaces. They have excellent night vision and their hearing is also very acute, allowing them to sense predators from far away. They forage for mushrooms and other underground plants and make nests out of sticks and vines. These strange creatures have a stoic, aloof demeanor and very little interest in other species of animals. They are very shy and skittish creatures that go out of their way to stay away from humans, but will attack if provoked or frightened.
