#044 Zweifhlaightte
Zweifhlaughttes are colossal slugs from a time long before humans that have an interesting physiological compartmentalization not present in other species on the planet. The majority of the body remains buried underground in self-dug caves, while smaller pieces of the body detach and claw their way up to the surface, where they hunt for small animals. After they've consumed an excess of nutrients, the hunting appendages return underground and rejoin with their host body.
#356 Ashkmagn
There are ten known ashkmagn, and they all reside within the same volcanic cavern, which they are aggressively territorial about. This endangered species is intelligent and capable of complex speech. Although they seem to understand several human languages, there has been only one confirmed instance of an ashkmagn ever speaking to a human who lived to tell the tale.
#086 Jhinx
The noble jhinx is an ancient race of sphinx that escaped global disaster and found a new home among the deep jungles in the world, where it lived for several thousand years before being rediscovered as an entirely new species. Jhinx seem to be capable of replicating the natural sounds of any other animal it encounters and superstitious folk believe it has the ability to converse with any other animal in their own tongue, including humans. No reported human-jhinx conversation has ever been verified.
#123 Fenglokam
Fenglokam are stout snake-like creatures with strong limbs, broad feet and a thick tail. They are very hardy animals that can live in virtually any environment or climate and emanate cold from their body rather than heat. Their diet consists mainly of roots, grubs, worms and small insects. They are also known for their loud mating calls that can be heard for miles, which continually screetch at the resonant frequency of packed sand.
#110 Klaxon
Klaxons are large, predatory creatures originally from the planet Xaphon. They are very intelligent and have developed an advanced society which has mastered interstellar travel and can be found on many planets in the galaxy. They have a strong belief in an afterlife, and as such, put a lot of emphasis on the importance of leaving a good legacy behind. They are very sensitive creatures and have been known to go into long bouts of depression over seemingly trivial things.
#157 Spacebunnies
Spacebunnies are planet-sized pests of the universe that burrow into spacetime tunnels, leaving catastrophic black holes behind. Seeing a spacebunny in the sky is the worst omen someone can ever hope to see, both because their presence foreshadows an inevitable slide of the planet into the black hole's gravitational pull and also because the sight of a space bunny in the sky causes all who see it to go completely and irrevocably insane, which has razed entire civilizations long before their planet was eventually destroyed.
#292 Volkan
The volkan is a massive creature, about the size of a buffalo, but with four legs and a tail. It is covered in thick black fur and has a massive mouth full of razor-sharp teeth. It has a pair of horn-like structures on its head and its eyes are usually glowing red or yellow in color. Volkans are solitary creatures and will rarely tolerate the presence of other volkans. They are extremely territorial and will fight to the death over their territory if they encounter another of their kind. When a battle between two volkans is about to begin, they will first do a series of complicated dances, where they will leap, kick, and stomp around the battleground.
#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.
#294 Qing'chi
Legends of the old qing'chi depict them as peaceful, fast, and incredibly intelligent. Although they were physically disproportioned by most standards, it's widely believed that their large head was the precursor to developing multiple interspecies languages and a strategic awareness of their surroundings that made them untouchable to all but the most potent predators. While qing'chi are capable of running faster than the wind, they prefer to use their wits and predict predator movement ahead of time, so they never find themselves needing to run in the first place. The qing'chi weren't recorded as an endangered species before they all suddenly disappeared. Zoologists today theorize they may have migrated to lands yet unseen by man's eye.
