#001 Haissa
Haissa are a friendly species distantly related to frogs. They spend most of their time climbing trees to find great vantage points to observe the ongoings of life below and have been known to purposefully shake branches to drop food for hungry creatures below.
#065 Aetyl Squid
Aetyl squids swim through sand like their aquatic cousins do through water. They survive off a primarily-meat diet that are captured either by trap or a surprise emergence from the sand, dragging their prey back underground. The aetyl squid also mixes sand with pungent ink to preserve leftover food for a long time.
#094 Dryph
Dryphs are a rare and elusive type of creature. They are said to be born from the clouds, and are occasionally seen floating above them. They levitate high in the air, intently watching life on the surface. Their whiskers are said to provide longevity and health when steeped in tea and their soft, fuzzy hide makes for beautiful garments and gowns.
#008 Zoupir
Zoupir are small, insect-like pigs that travel underground, in packs. They feed primarily off dirt and roots, sucking nutrients from crops and vegetation in the area. They are an invisible pest, but farmers with a little know-how know how to spot signs of their presence.
#145 Starsquid
Starsquid are the only known creatures that live in the upper exosphere. They are translucent floating jellyfish that hunt on moonless nights by using their bioluminescence. When dawn comes, they ascend back into the heavens to spend the day resting and digesting. Starsquids are said to be ancient and wise, and are responsible for inspiring mankind's first attempts at flight. According to mythology, they originated as energy life forms in the early days of the universe and slowly drifted through space until being captured in our planet's gravity well.
#224 Larroh
Larrohs are flying insects that can be found in the high mountains of the world, scaling the peaks and drinking from glacial lakes. They are extremely shy and will dissipate their bodies into water vapor and their substance into their surroundings if startled. Larrohs are considered a delicacy among the citizens of Sharr, who will scale the mountains to collect the creatures for consumption.
#225 Astorvega
An astorvega is a slow, lumbering creature covered in a thick, brown fur. It is roughly the same size as a bear and has large, powerful claws on its forelimbs that help it dig through snow or into small holes to sleep. The astorvega is a solitary creature, moving slowly across the tundra and frozen plains, munching on grasses and shrubs. Although they typically live around 100 years, their maximum lifespan is thought to be at least a thousand years in ideal conditions. They are extremely docile creatures given their size, usually only retaliating if threatened. Astorvegas leave behind mounds of shedded fur any time the temperature rises even a little bit.
#288 Korod
A korod is a large, pale yellow bug with two large eyes and two long antennae. It has a single long leg on the underside of its body and two additional antennae on under its wings. It is an omnivore, eating both meat and plants. The korod is blind, deaf, and mute, but it has a keen sense of taste, smell, and touch. Korod are capable of walking, running, flying, and swimming.
#360 Jadyx
Jadyx are large, flightless birds whose metallic scales shimmer brightly in the moonlight, giving them a truly mesmerizing appearance. They are native to the dense, humid rainforests of the far south, where they can often be found foraging for fruit and small insects among the lush vegetation. Despite their impressive size, Jadyx are generally quite docile and peaceful creatures, preferring to avoid conflict whenever possible. However, they are fiercely protective of their young and will not hesitate to defend them if they feel threatened. In terms of ecology, Jadyx play a vital role in their ecosystem as seed dispersers, spreading the seeds of the fruit they eat throughout the rainforest. They are also an important food source for larger predatory animals, such as jaguars and pumas. Overall, the Jadyx are a vital part of the delicate balance of life in the southern rainforests.
