#118 Herenella

Herenellas are seahorse-like creatures whose bodies form non-euclidean shapes. They feed on ambient temperature differences deep in the ocean. These creatures are very intelligent and will often be found in tight clusters of dozens to hundreds. Herenellas use their long, malleable snouts to communicate with each other, forming a complex language that uses matter-shifting for intonation. While herenellas can also breathe out of water, they rarely have any reason to leave their food source in the ocean depths.

#119 Ossl

Ossles are small creatures that are found in warmer tundras. They are about the size of a small cat and resemble a cross between a tortoise and a beetle, albeit with two large, boney antlers that end in sharp claws. Despite their fearsome appearance, they are actually quite timid, unless they are provoked. You can tell the age of an ossl by the number of rings in their antlers, which grow thicker every year until they're too heavy to carry.

#372 Alalalalamba

The fearsome alalalalamba has a louder bark than bite, although it can do neither as a toothless mollusk at the bottom of the ocean. Alalalalambas use their immense size to intimidate would-be predators and scare prey into a paralytic submission. These creatures reproduce quickly with live births of up to twelve alalalalambas at a time, yet rarely live very long due to their lack of real defenses when pressed by unintimidated predators.

#142 Nethele

Netheles are physical-realm ghosts that are cursed to haunt cities and forests. They are not necessarily evil but are tricksy, always trying to trick the people they encounter into doing something foolish. Netheles don't have mouths, but can speak to people telepathically in a way that emulates the sound of the listener's own voice. They often play pranks on people by taking their stuff and moving it around until they get very confused, but older or more aggressive netheles occasionally resort to more harmful and ill-willed pranks and trickery.

#253 Mawtok

Mawtokes are highly territorial creatures that lurk in the oceans of the world. They are only visible when they are swimming in sunlight and can remain motionless underwater for days at a time. If they decide to attack, they will rise out of the water and dig their powerful tentacles into the ground to move, and they will drag themselves and their prey back into the ocean, even if the mawtok is several miles from the shore. Mawtokes can store a large amount of water inside a specialized sac in their abdomen that lets them breathe for up to six hours while on land.

#329 Alsjepsel

The alsjepsel is a large reptile-mammal hybrid that frequents acidic swamps in the southern hemisphere. The alsjepsel were first discovered by Nin adventurers that mistook them for a demon and started a century-long crusade to wipe them out, which left a nearly extinct population. These days, alsjepsel have mostly been able to repopulate, but keep to themselves and stay far away from humans when possible. When threatened they may attack, but otherwise the alsjepsel is a generally docile herbivore.

#334 Xolgar

Xolgars are giant birds native to tropical islands. When they hunt, they will pick up a strip of bark from a tree and carry it in their beaks, which they then use to create a makeshift hardnet to trap fish in the water. Once a fish has been caught, the xolgar will fly back up to a nearby tree, unroll the bark, and eat the fish. Because of their size, most other animals in their environments leave the xolgar alone.

#355 Vilagoth

Vilagoths are an intelligent species of semi-aquatic jellies. They have large eyes and at least four tentacled arms with webbed microfingers, and they can breathe underwater for up to ten days at a time before needing to resurface. The males have small tusks that grow from their lower jaws, but the females don't have any. They are very friendly and docile creatures that like to spend their time floating around in the water and playing simple games with each other. They aren't very strong, but they are fast and can swim at speeds of up to 75 km/h. They are also quite intelligent and have been known to teach themselves how to read and write using sunken ships.

#300 Orimpa

Orimpas are small and fluffy creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a small cat. They have large ears and a long, bushy tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, gray fur. Some regional variations also develop white or orange spots in their fur. Orimpas are extremely intelligent and have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds. Orimpas are generally peaceful creatures, but are known to become very violent when threatened. They live in large groups and spend most of their time foraging for food. Their favorite food is acorns and sunflowers, which they crush on rocks to form a mixed powder that they sprinkle on other foods for flavor.
