#125 Holivax

The fabled holivax is a race of ancient colorsapping birds believed to now be extinct, but are widely referred to as exceedingly rare in ancient texts. Holivax are said to leech pigment from their surroundings, taking on hypersaturated colors reminiscent of the flora and fauna that are unfortunate enough to find themselves close enough to a holivax nest, drained of their color. It is written that holivax blood is able to cure blindness, and brightly shimmers with every color when exposed to even the littlest sliver of light.

#097 Whalewalker

These hulking creatures once dominated the long-lost oceans. As the heat wave intensified and oceans began to evaporate, the first whalewalker ancestors adapted their way onto land. Whalewalkers lay down and open their gigantic mouth, then remain still for days at a time to lure in bugs and other small animals before chomping down for a calorie-packed bite. They live lonely, frequently-migrating lives.

#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.

#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.

#221 Gormilgrimimrsa

Gormilgrimimrsa are tall, green, and lean creatures that live in the forest. They are extremely agile and can run for half a day on pure adrenaline, but can be very sensitive. To hunt, they use their keen sense of hearing to find prey, then use a mix of sticks and grass to craft weapons. Gormilgrimimrsa are very lonely creatures and will emotionally attach themselves to whoever is paying attention to them, often to their detriment.

#207 Skeighnog

Skeighnogs are vicious and bloodthirsty creatures from the vast forests of the world. They are small, roughly the size of a small dog but with a long, scaly tail and a bulbous, pouchy stomach. They are predators and will eat anything they can catch and fit in their mouths, but their favorite prey is the klelag, which they hunt by burrowing into the thick grasses of the nests. When a skeighnog attacks its prey, it usually does it from above, leaping down on its target and impaling them with its long, curved claws. A skeighnog can run very fast and has the speed to catch a human, but they are more likely to feast on their fallen prey until they've eaten their fill before chasing anything else.

#319 Drontinc

Drontincs are tiny dragons which primarily communicate through telekinesis. They often get caught up in the winds and blown across the world, which makes them particularly adventurous and inquisitive for a species which has such a short lifespan. Every spring, when drontincs are newly hatched, they are sent on a quest to find their mate. It is an incredibly challenging process, as they must learn to navigate the landscape (many drontincs will get caught in storms and blown off into the ocean), but once they have found their mate, they will spend their lives together in a small home beneath the earth.

#349 Flayansk

The flayansk originates in the far north, in the freezing highlands of Cotsk. Flayansk vary wildly in size throughout their life, growing quickly from the size of rodents to the size of large boulders, then eventually shrinking back to microscopic levels as they reach old age. No matter their size, however, flayansk struggle with their weight: since they weigh less than air, these creatures will hold themselves close to the ground with their massive claws so they don't float away into the atmosphere. Although flayansk can go for weeks (or, in some cases, months) without eating, starvation is still their leading cause of death due to being unable to get back down to the ground once they start floating away.

#156 Salnodist

Salnodists are water-dwelling reptiles that hunt by inching slowly towards their prey and trapping them in their mouths before they can escape. The lower jaw is supported by a flexible bone that allows for a larger mouth. They have no eyes, and instead rely on smell to locate prey. This sense of smell is quite good, and they can detect a fish from at least a mile away. Their teeth are blunt, and they are incapable of chewing, so they must swallow their food whole. They have no predators, as their tough skin is almost impossible to puncture, and it is often covered in algae that make the salnodist much less appetizing. Salnodists can grow to be over eight feet long and weigh more than two thousand pounds.
