#060 Brugnul
Brugnuls are microscopic parasites that can be found in most environments. They are commonly found in the bodies of other creatures, but can also be found on the ground, in water, and in the air. They are extremely hard to detect, and can be difficult to remove if they are located in the brain or other vital organs, where they can cause a variety of symptoms. Brugnuls are extremely resilient and almost always outlive their hosts.
#094 Dryph
Dryphs are a rare and elusive type of creature. They are said to be born from the clouds, and are occasionally seen floating above them. They levitate high in the air, intently watching life on the surface. Their whiskers are said to provide longevity and health when steeped in tea and their soft, fuzzy hide makes for beautiful garments and gowns.
#059 Croixstel
Croixstel are large bull-like creatures that produce an incredibly-thick coat of fur, which simultaneously makes most croixstel completely impervious (and unaware) of any and all physical contact, but also ultimately results in an inevitable death by overheating. Upon the death of a croixstel, traders from all over the world will swoop in to claim as much croixstel fur as they can sell.
#016 Xylach
Xylaches are sprawling reptilian creatures that tend to migrate toward popular human beaches to feed off the trash and food left behind. Although one xylach could easily match twenty or more people in power, they largely remain docile and, at most, loudly grunt towards beach-goers for scraps. Rather than trying to remove them or going to different beaches, people have largely learned to just ignore xylaches.
#086 Jhinx
The noble jhinx is an ancient race of sphinx that escaped global disaster and found a new home among the deep jungles in the world, where it lived for several thousand years before being rediscovered as an entirely new species. Jhinx seem to be capable of replicating the natural sounds of any other animal it encounters and superstitious folk believe it has the ability to converse with any other animal in their own tongue, including humans. No reported human-jhinx conversation has ever been verified.
#231 Ephflynne
Ephflynnes are enormous creatures that swim through the air at speeds of up to one thousand miles per hour. They're completely translucent, but they can change the wavelength of light they reflect to blend in with their surroundings or to make themselves visible. They eat massive amounts of vapor every day, which they track and locate by following a pheremone known as sugreth. An ephflynne can grow to be ten miles long and can live for hundreds of years.
#281 Mazurath
The mazurath are a class of giant serpentine creatures that have lived in the deep recesses of the ocean for millennia, if not longer. Mazurath are peaceful creatures but, due to their immense size, sailors often attack them after mistaking them for common sea monsters. Inevitably, the only sailors that live to tell the tale of such mistakes are those who the mazurath lose interest in. A fully-grown mazurath can reach a length of over thirteen thousand meters and has a thick, muscular body with fin-like protrusions, which it uses for propulsion. Although the tips of their tentacles may sometimes breach the ocean surface, mazurath rarely leave the deepest ocean depths.
#339 Karkat
Karkats are medium-sized creatures that spend most of their time on the ocean floor, though they will occasionally come to the surface for air. They have hollow bones and two long, nearly prehensile tails that help them to swim quickly. When they are at the surface, they tend to gather in large groups and quietly observe the world around them. They have very soft skin and are very gentle creatures.
#167 Telusiv
The telusiv is a predatory creature that often lives in the desert, but has been spotted in many other environments. Telusivs have a long, snake-like body and, although they spend most of their life on the ground, they are able to briefly swim through the air if necessary, enabling telusivs to move rapidly from one place to another. Its diet consists primarily of small rodents, insects, and other animals. Telusivs often travel in family packs, where the strongest will typically hunt and bring back large quantities of food for the others in the traveling "nest". Telusivs can also spit a paralyzing venom at prey or enemies, but this has a limited range, so they usually save it for special occasions.
