#370 D'eggio
This fearsome matriarch stalks egg-laying creatures in swamps and wetlands until it finds the perfect time to strike, then takes over their prey's egg-laden nest as if it were their own. D'eggios will lay on top of eggs for days or weeks at a time while tendril-like spikes on their underside piece each egg with microscopic holes and inject their own DNA directly into the egg, resulting in abominable mutant creatures that are more like d'eggios than their original species, although both parts often show through. Although most d'eggio offspring don't live long enough to reproduce, some variants can completely take over an entire biome with the right genetics.
#148 Dacagoth
Dacagoths are small, fluffy mushroom-like creatures that live in grottos and caves. They are about the size of a human thumb and are typically a light shade of gray. They spend most of their time sleeping and eating the rocks and fungus of the caverns they inhabit. After several years, they reach maturity and gain the ability to shed their sentience and become a regular mushroom.
#106 Sidjif
The sidjif is a large, snakelike creature that is commonly used as a mount for the orcs and goblins of the world. Their massive bodies can grow up to 60 feet in length, and are powerful and muscular enough to support the weight of ten riders. They have four hearts, a large mouth, and several eyes that can be found on their head, neck, and body. They are very trusting and have been known to forge strong bonds with the riders that they are paired with. Their name comes from the sound that they make when they are pleased or hungry, which follows a short, warbling beat.
#026 Oroch
Orochs are more closely related to an octopus or squid than any known spider species, yet are commonly mistaken for spiders. Luckily, their bright-red color serves as a loud warning of how deadly orochs can be due to the way they hunt. Once they've locked onto a target, some orochs can spend weeks following and studying a prey before they strike. The only known deterrent is to leave out a small platter of blueberries, which orochs love.
#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.
#241 Witango
Witango are large, sturdy crystalline beasts that spend most of their days laying down and enjoying a warm bath in temperate swampwater. They have a hard time getting out of their baths because they are so comfortable, so they employ the help of their children (witangolions) to pull them out when their bath is over. When a witango leaves their bath spot, they typically leave behind an assortment of subterrean crystals that spread from their body, which sell for large amounts to most traders.
#210 Meldor
As the national animal of a small, farmer-run republic on their planet, the meldor is a peaceful and generally friendly creature that can be found minding its own business around the fields and forests of the region. While their legs have lost the strength and power that they used to have in the past, they have learned to adapt by using their surprisingly strong wings to lift their bodies into the air, becoming warriors that fight with the wind itself! A fleet of meldors are always a force to be reckoned with!
#278 Arang'raco
The arang'raco is a large lizard native to the deepest jungles. They are known for their vibrant and colorful scales and the immense sharpness of their front teeth. The arang'raco typically uses its teeth for display and for breaking through tough fruits, but it can also use them for fighting. They typically have a calm and gentle nature, but if they feel threatened by a hostile creature, they will use their powerful legs to leap toward their enemy. An arang'raco bite is usually enough to instantly subdue most predators.
#331 Vok'til
Vok'til are a rare race of reptile that can sometimes be found in dormant volcanos and other warm, cavernous mountains. Although they have small wings, they are incapable of flight; rather, they use their wings to aerodynamically change directions quickly when sprinting along the ground, and occasionally to slow their fall or glide when making large, vertical jumps along their cliffside. Vok'til have hollow, brittle bones that make them incredibly light but also fragile. Vok'til are very aggressive creatures and will chase (and attack) almost anything that moves, even if it's inedible.
