#015 Verdebird

Weirdly, verdebirds glow a bright green color while also only being visible in the direct shadows of light passing through green-tinted glass, making it a rarity to actually observe one outside of controlled conditions. It's said that witnessing one is a terrible omen for things to come, but some groups of people worship them as a harbinger of change and carry shards of green glass with them wherever they go.

#053 Electrofly

Electroflies are gaseous clusters of friendly, intelligent sublife that often physically get caught in airwave currents or magnetic fields, scattering the cluster in a perpetual cycle of trying to reform the cluster's desired shape and structure, which resembles a large, pearlescent butterfly.

#083 Weretree

When a werebeing sheds blood into groundwater, in some rare cases a nearby tree may absorb it and transform into a weretree. After around six weeks of transformation time, the weretree's bark feels rubbery; the branches grow large, meaty muscles; a face may form, though often lacks the vocal cords to speak; and a coveted Essence Tree may sprout directly from its wooden heart, producing nectar, ambrosia, and colorful fruits. Farmers lucky enough to have a weretree born on their farm benefit greatly from the weretree's harvest, but also inexplicably become targets for jealous neighbors.

#107 Vlaughd

Vlaughd are demonic-looking, bat-winged desert creatures. They have extremely long prehensile tongues and their saliva is acidic enough to corrode metal. They have razor-sharp teeth and large, blood-red eyes. They are highly carnivorous and will attack and eat almost any other creature they come across. They are extremely fast and agile, and will not hesitate to pick a fight with a much larger adversary.

#215 Zemyl

The zemyl is a small and brightly colored mammal that lives in mountain ranges. It has a penchant for collecting rocks, prefers to eat a diet of flowers and insects, and is capable of traveling at great speeds by rolling down hills. If you ever encounter a zemyl, it is advised that you shout the phrase "zemyl!" at it to ward it off, as this is the one word that zemyls are absolutely terrified of.

#176 Vilcino

Vilcini are tiny creatures that are easy to see from afar due to their bright purple color. They live in grassy fields and forests and spend most of their time eating insects, nuts, and berries. The best place to find a vilcino is in a field where a thunderstorm is just ending and the sun is beginning to shine through the branches of the trees: vilcini hair is naturally water-resistant so their texture and movement will naturally stand out against wet, matted down plantlife, even in fields full of the purple ametheo flower that vilcini seek out for environmental camoflage.

#238 Kinkingo

Kinkingo are small, aquatic rodents best known for their unique camoflage routine. These small creatures gradually fade to a dark grey color while sleeping, helping them blend in with barnacles and coral they typically nest in. When a kinkingo awakes, however, it instantaneously mimics the colors of it's immediate surroundings and keeps these colors until it next falls asleep. Depending on the region, some kinkingo have been observed to sleep five to six times a day, or more during mating season.

#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.

#259 Gghun'vur

Gghun'vur are small insects with 13 legs that live in the coldest frozen tundras in the world. Their internal body temperature is very close to absolute zero, which severely limits the temperatures they can survive in; harsh, freezing temperatures comparatively feel like a sunny day to them and they manage to keep warm in these environments. Gghun'vur hunt other insects and small creatures via a combination of high-speed sprinting and a powerful jump, which the gghun'vur uses to tackle and wrap its legs around its prey, instantly freezing them. An enyzme from the gghun'vur's saliva breaks down biomass within frozen hunks as they lick it, allowing this small creature to consume entire frozen meals with just its small, barbed tongue.
