#111 Quernug

The quernug is a strange creature that resembles a sheep. They stand about 2ft tall and are covered in purple, matted wool, have a frog-like mouth, and have two horns on the sides of their head. Quernugs make a strange barking sound and will hop around, blindly following humans and other creatures. They are generally harmless, but may sometimes bite their companions, resulting in serious wounds, infection, and prolonged illness. Quernugs reproduce by spitting up eggs in a nest of mud and rotting leaves.

#112 Krearieae

Krearieae are large, birds covered in dense, wooly plumage. They are a sacred animal in the Unser culture. Members of the Fromug tribe breed and raise them as livestock, using their dung as a fertilizer and using krearieae feathers as a source of heat. They are also very powerful fliers and can carry objects almost ten times their own weight. When they are fully grown, they can be as large as an elephant.

#055 Kurobo

The charming three-legged kurobo walk isn't the only reason they caught the world's eye at their discovery. It's cute, yes, but the real mind-blower is their ability to manifest fire, seemingly at will. The blue fire burns hotter and brighter for as long as the kuobo is near, then fades into the more traditional red and cools down. The first discovered kurobo, Charles, is an internet celebrity.

#110 Klaxon

Klaxons are large, predatory creatures originally from the planet Xaphon. They are very intelligent and have developed an advanced society which has mastered interstellar travel and can be found on many planets in the galaxy. They have a strong belief in an afterlife, and as such, put a lot of emphasis on the importance of leaving a good legacy behind. They are very sensitive creatures and have been known to go into long bouts of depression over seemingly trivial things.

#245 Golden Chotlack

The golden chotlack is a small mammal that used to live in the jungles and woodlands of the planet, but has since wholly migrated to caves underground. It is known for its nocturnal habits, its ability to use echolocation, and its ability to weave golden thread out of most other materials. It usually lives alone. Chotlacks have learned to live as far away from human settlements as they possibly can; any time they are found they are immediately hunted and imprisoned. Chotlacks speak in a high pitch and volume, using a mix of squeaking, chirping, and yelling.

#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.

#197 Glandrac

Glandracs are living piles of desert trash. They are the avatars of the world’s most disgusting souls, who have been reborn as living garbage. Glandracs are always scrounging for food and will sometimes go for days without finding anything to eat. When they do find food, they will devour it whole, packaging wrappers and all. They reproduce by eating an extraordinary amount of food, then defecating out a small baby glandrac, which will look exactly like a smaller version of its parent. The adult glandrac will then lead the offspring on a long trek across the desert to a new trash pile, where they will begin their new life together.

#311 Quammoth

The quammoth (a portmanteau of "aqua" and "mammoth" popularized by the eastern Squib coasters) is an aquatic mammoth-like mammal that calls oceanic vents home. These gigantic creatures are too large and heavy to swim; instead, they stand on four thick legs and walk along the seafloor. Quammoths offset their limited mobility by using dozens of lengthy tentacles to defend themselves, hunt small fish for food, and manipulate their environment. These tentacles have a stiff, wood-like skin that ancient Squib used to make canoes out of.

#319 Drontinc

Drontincs are tiny dragons which primarily communicate through telekinesis. They often get caught up in the winds and blown across the world, which makes them particularly adventurous and inquisitive for a species which has such a short lifespan. Every spring, when drontincs are newly hatched, they are sent on a quest to find their mate. It is an incredibly challenging process, as they must learn to navigate the landscape (many drontincs will get caught in storms and blown off into the ocean), but once they have found their mate, they will spend their lives together in a small home beneath the earth.
