These xianc'onents are said to emit a low vibration that amplifies through water and can be felt, just barely, while aboard larger ships.

#376 Birbanna
The Birbanna (Avibanana mysticus) stands as a distinctive and curious fictional species, seamlessly merging the features of a flightless avian and a tropical fruit. Native to the idyllic landscapes of Fruitalis Isle, Birbannas exhibit a striking resemblance to oversized bananas, adorned in resplendent yellow plumage reminiscent of sunlit bananas. Notably, their mode of communication is a phenomenon that sets them apart - employing exclusively muffled riddles to convey their thoughts. This unique linguistic trait contributes to their aura of enigma, captivating the imagination of those fortunate enough to encounter them. As arboreal inhabitants, Birbannas fulfill a role of ecological stewardship within their verdant habitat, offering veiled insights and wisdom through their cryptic dialogues. The profound blend of whimsy and depth associated with these avian enigmas has established Fruitalis Isle as a haven where intrigue and sagacity harmonize in the form of the Birbanna.

#144 Stemilia
The stemilia are an ancient race of primates known for their extremely long, stilt-like legs. Although they historically cooperated with humanity in the distant past and lived in relative harmony with jungle villages, modern stemilia are significantly more aggressive and fearful of humans and prefer to live in villages of their own, far away from the nearest human town. Although stemilia legs are prone to breaking often, they will apply hand-made splints to remain upright and heal quickly with their fast-acting regenerative systems. As stemilia age, their legs will naturally thicken with muscle and fortified calcium deposits.

#172 Krangof
Krangofs are most notable for their pungent odor and high-pitched, loud calls. They are largely-solitary, aggressive scavengers and maim any other animal that they perceive as a threat. Their sharp teeth are formed into a single, solid, serrated blade. Krangofs are the only creature completely impervious to the venomous bite of a poxip, among many other poisons. Krangofs are very smart and sometimes work together in small groups to hunt the animals that they need to survive, although they are untrustworthy and will backstab others to gain more food for themselves after completing the hunt.

#342 Jungle Wraith
The jungle wraith is a rare and elusive creature that is rarely seen by humans. It has a slender and ghostly appearance, with translucent white skin that glows softly in the dim light of the jungle. It has long, graceful limbs, and sharp claws that allow it to climb trees and navigate the dense jungle underbrush. The jungle wraith is a solitary creature, preferring to hunt and forage on its own. It is a skilled predator, stalking its prey and pouncing with lightning-fast reflexes. It is also incredibly stealthy, able to move silently through the jungle and avoid detection by other animals.

It has the ability to turn invisible, allowing it to evade predators or sneak up on its prey. It also has a highly developed sense of hearing, which it uses to locate its prey even in the densest jungle. A fun fact about the jungle wraith is that it is rumored to be the spirit of a great warrior, cursed to roam the jungle for eternity. Many have tried to lay the wraith's spirit to rest, but none have succeeded. The jungle wraith remains a mysterious and elusive creature, shrouded in legend and mystery.
