#003 Scrut
Scruts live in the deep north, where they burrow long distances through snow and dirt in search of their next meal. They secrete a natural, sticky antifreeze through their fur which prevents their small bodies from freezing. Although they live largely-vegetarian lives, they have been known to eat whatever happens to be available when starving.

#004 Avahi
Not much is known about where avahis originated, but they migrate in large packs extremely quickly, typically along water-adjacent routes. Their small stature and nimble speed makes them difficult to track and their spiny exterior carapace provides an excellent defense against most would-be predators. If you see one avahi, chances are there are many more avahis nearby; they communicate quietly with hand gestures and whole-body movement.

#061 Dirb
Dirbs are flightless birds that wander fields looking for seeds and other small scraps of food. Their legs are incredibly thin and often crack or break with the slightest bump or stumble, but they heal quickly. Dirb meat is bland but filling and they are easy prey for anything that's hungry.

#031 Hadgeit
Hadgeits are a rare, holy creature that are believed to be the physical manifestation of an ancient god of light. They are extremely rare and are typically found in the presence of other holy creatures. They have a variety of magical abilities, including the ability to create light and to heal themselves and others. When threatened, they can also use their light to blind their attackers and scurry away.

#048 Dolli Buea
Dolli Buea are large creatures that inhabit the arboral wetlands. While they are generally large in size, they seem to be able to freely swim in even the smallest of puddles and are somehow able to fully submerge themselves and re-emerge in another body of water. The water any buea swims in becomes impossibly murky, making it impossible to see anything past the water surface.

#200 Norpin
Norpins are small, fluffy creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a mouse. They have short, spindly legs and a long, windy tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, brown fur. This little creature is notable in nature for having no bones in its legs and very few bones in its body; rather than relying on a skeletal system for bodily structure, norpins have very strong muscles that hold their shape and enable an extremely wid range of movement. Norpins are also very intelligent and have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds, including many of those emitted from the earth during natural geological events. Norpins are generally peaceful creatures but are known to become very violent when threatened. They live in large nests with others and spend most of their time foraging for food.

#234 Xlidngh
The xlidngh is a small, flying creature that continuously secretes a sweet-smelling pheremone from its third eye, located on its body. This pheromone attracts nearby creatures of all shapes and species in an almost trance-like state, where they will follow nearby xlidnghs wherever they go. While these small creatures often use this ability to lure would-be predators to their death (and score themselves a nice dinner or two), they also seem to frequently lead animals in need to where they should go, whether they're lost, looking for their family, or looking for food/water. It is unknown whether or how xlidnghs communicate, but they generally seem to be friendly and good-natured.

#274 SLP-059
SLP-059 is a stable organic mutation of the venus fly trap, successfully designed and created at the [redacted] facility in [redacted], Virginia. SLP-059 can be recognized by its thick, mossy feet and long bristles which can extend up to six inches to capture and pull in insects and small animals. SLP-059 also contains an enzyme capable of breaking up any nonmetal material, making it technically capable of consuming almost anything. SLP-059 can go for extremely long lengths without food or water, drawing from reserved contained in its mossy stump legs. It is strongly advised to never leave SLP-059 unrestrained, or without direct human supervision.

#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.
