#090 Ekkast
The ekkast is a vicious creature that moves on eight legs but can slither through loose ground like a snake, and often feasts on large mammals. While young ekkasts are small enough to use natural rock structures for protection, the adult ekkasts burrow deep into the earth and make long, winding tunnels for themselves and their large families.
#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.
#013 Emerid
Emerids are social, friendly birds that travel long distances through deserts, trying to make friends with lonely travelers and larger animals. They've been known to sing loud songs on hot nights, with nearby emerids all singing the same song. Those that spend much time in deserts typically develop a love-hate relationship with the emerid songs that keep them company during the day, but also keep them up all night.
#223 Flignog
Flignogs are small, furred creatures that can usually be found in trees, grasslands, and caves. They often band together in small tribes, and are known to "bray" at each other to communicate. They are omnivores and spend much time hunting small animals and gathering fruit. They have also grown to enjoy the "brayberries" of the braytree, which flignogs often collect and bury in secret troves for later.
#168 Magmatuna
Magmatuna is a cursed mutation of the freshwater tuna, resulting in a scalding hot internal temperature that is immediately devastating to any aquatic ecosystem. Their molten skin causes rapid evaporation of entire lakes and rivers, completely obliterating the ecosystem and resulting in nothing but burn marks and leagues of dead fish in a dry basin. The sighting of any smoke or mass-evaporation in a body of water should be immediately reported to the nearest government body.
#310 Buuzkut
Buuzkuts are a species of small animal that looks a lot like a beetle, but are actually part of the Lepidoptera order. They have large eyes, a chitinous shell, and an intermuscular antenna. Buuzkuts love to eat fizzy drinks and will often hoard cans of it in their underground nests. They rarely come out during the daytime, preferring to stay in their nests and slowly slurp up a steady stream of fizzy soda. The average buuzkut lives for about six months.
#313 Koben
Kobens are small, furry creatures that have sharpened claws and retractable spikes on their backs. They are generally non-violent and don't attack humans unless provoked. They are foragers that search for food for most of the day, but also enjoy digging holes in the ground to hide from larger predators. Koben often rub their back-spikes against tree trunks which results in deep, noticeable gashes. Male kobens develop a bright pink coloring later in life, while females may sometimes develop patches of white fur.
#357 Senna
It seems like the average senna lifespan is longer than that of the universes it inhabits. This large, snake-like creature has somehow evolved a form of inter-dimensional travel to escape the inevitable heat death of most universes. Sennae are unfathomably large, sometimes stretched across three or four universal dimensions when fully extended. These mysterious creatures have no known predators nor prey. Eons ago, people used to believe they could see sennae traveling through distant universes in the night sky, but science has long since "proved" that such a sight would be physically impossible given their size. History debates the authenticity of several allegedly-verified sightings.
#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.
