#029 Chreish

Chreish are sprawling, shapeless creatures that lack the traditional skin and body of most creatures. Instead, they grow long, entwined limbs of pure hair which act like roots to leech nutrients from the plants and soil they crawl over. They shed a lot of hair when moving and are generally seen as pests outside of the coldest climates, where their hair is a more precious resource.

#056 Bertuisk

Bertuisks are large airfish that live above the clouds in large schools. Although they largely stay out of sight and move from area to area with the clouds, some cities will mount air attacks on the giant fish to keep too many from clustering. A single bertuisk typically feeds a whole city for a week.

#122 Cerdathif

Cerdathifs are a colorful variant of cerdath that typically live near the base of tall mountains. They make nests with collections of hand-picked rocks and spend most of their time meditating on the nature of the universe. Their bodies are covered in a thick layer of orange fur, which protects them from the cold. They are not hostile towards other races and do not engage in violence, prefering instead to forage or go hungry.

#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.

#147 Herling

The herling is a small bird about the size of a housecat. They are mostly harmless, but are often pests because of their tendency to steal and hoard shiny objects. A herling will take any object that catches their eye, including jewelry, coins, pencils, pens, forks, spoons, knives, scissors, and anything else they can carry. They usually hide these objects in the hollows of trees or other dark recesses of their environment. They are also known for the bright red feathers that emit a slight luminescent glow in low light.

#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.

#229 Tehrer

The tehrer is a small, flightless bird originating from volcanic islands in the south. Tehrers are extremely fast runners and use their powerful legs to leap from tree to tree, often reaching airborne heights and speeds such that they unintentionally harm themselves among landing. Their favorite food is resin, sap, and other tree fluids, and they'll often build nests next to where such food is available. Tehrers are generally friendly, active, and playful creatures that will readily interact with humans and other small, nonthreatening animals.

#314 Ghiana

Ghiana are a distant aquatic relative to ancient starfish that pump electricity through their veins and filter water into liquid carbon, which they passively absorb. Although these colorful fish are known for their beauty (and weirdness), the color they appear as depends entirely on the emotional state of their viewer. Those with a clear conscious will see them as a light pink, while those with deep secrets will see a darker red or orange. In rare cases, some people claim to see ghiana of other colors; however, scientists are still unsure of how ghiana color-changing mechanisms work and what exactly dictates who sees what color.

#276 Vuvegge

Vuvegges are small insects common to forests and jungles that don't develop a sense of sight until a late stage of life. During their early "formative" years, vuvegges use their large eyeballs as sacs to store additional food or resources. Vuvegge packs are instantly recognizable by a unique hand-holding phenomenon. Elder vuvegges will lead familial packs using their developed eyesight while younger vuvegges will often specialize in collecting specific resources, storing as much as they can so they can provide to anyone in the group when needed. Even when passing resources between the pack, vuvegges will rarely unlink their hands and instead use an auxillary appendage to pass resources around the pack. Vuvegge packs move in perfect lockstep and are largely considered pests by human settlements, even though vuvegge are nocturnal herbivores that typically keep to themselves.
