#010 Vruntyk
Vruntyks are an ancient race of reptile that lived underground in caves for millennia before emerging and finding refuge in deserts and mountains across the globe. They're unfathomably fast and ferocious and live in gigantic, migrating communities. Their skin is as chewable as bubble gum and makes for a strong, defensive leather when tanned.
#050 Mahaman
Mahaman that are humanoid birds that exist partially outside of time, which manifests visually with the eponymously-named phenomenon mahamans are known for: superpositions of their body in several simultaneous slices of time appear in tandem to others, which results in creatures that look blurry, morphing, and duplicated.
#099 Sneacock
Once upon a time, a snake and a peacock found a way to produce an offspring. That offspring's intimidating colors and wholly evil nature quickly made it the dominant species of its island, where it reproduced and overpopulated for centuries before a merchant's ship brought the predator to the mainland. The island is now known as Sneacock Island and it is strictly forbidden lest another devastating sneacock outbreak occur again.
#216 Zelorgbia
Zelorgbian creatures are relatively simple jellyfish-related invertibrates that live on the edges of the ocean. Zelorgbians come on shore to bask in the sunlight and to lay their eggs. However, they can't move on land and risk dehydration if they're beached, so they choose to stay as close to the water's edge as possible. They are very sociable and will often move in huge herds, which sometimes get swept long distances by strong ocean currents.
#032 Frestnoch
Frestnoches evolved a thick fur across their abdomen to keep them warm in the harsh northern climates and have a varying amount of large, chitinous spikes protruding from their body that they use as tools to survive in the harsh wilderness. They largely eat trees and large bushes, but they also cut down trees to make large, circular piles for their egg nests. After laying their eggs, they'll cover their nest and remain inside to produce the warmth necessary for the eggs to grow, only leaving when necessary to collect more trees for food or when threatened.
#222 Oltang
The oltang is a large, green, lizard-like creature that inhabits the swamps and wetlands of Oorzh. Being mostly aquatic, the oltang usually only comes to land when it is voluntarily wanting to shed its skin. The oltang has a long, constantly-shaking tail that produces an electrical current. When a predator or a new potential mate approaches, the oltang will raise its tail high above its head and then slam it down; if the creature is a potential mate, the electrical current will cause an explosion of green sparkles. If the creature is a predator, the shock will usually ward it off.
#253 Mawtok
Mawtokes are highly territorial creatures that lurk in the oceans of the world. They are only visible when they are swimming in sunlight and can remain motionless underwater for days at a time. If they decide to attack, they will rise out of the water and dig their powerful tentacles into the ground to move, and they will drag themselves and their prey back into the ocean, even if the mawtok is several miles from the shore. Mawtokes can store a large amount of water inside a specialized sac in their abdomen that lets them breathe for up to six hours while on land.
#325 Rakiviz
The rakiviz is a large bird about the size of a human. They are covered in a thick layer of white feathers and have two muscular legs, each of which has up to ten talons. The rakiviz is usually docile, but when a full moon rises, they will cease all activity and begin to slowly circle the sky. If a person or creature looks directly into the eyes of a rakiviz or sees their reflection during this time, they will become frozen in place, unable to move or think until the rakiviz stops circling. Rakiviz that venture too close to civilization are aggressively hunted down or pushed back to the wilderness to avoid these "night concerts".
#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.
