#015 Verdebird
Weirdly, verdebirds glow a bright green color while also only being visible in the direct shadows of light passing through green-tinted glass, making it a rarity to actually observe one outside of controlled conditions. It's said that witnessing one is a terrible omen for things to come, but some groups of people worship them as a harbinger of change and carry shards of green glass with them wherever they go.
#130 Sylveph
Sylvephs are loud, obnoxious sheep with fine, silk fur. Farmers despise their constant bleeting and the incredible mess they make in the field. Although they slowly produce silver thread, their spoils must be thoroughly washed and disinfected to prepare them for use. Sylvephs prefer to eat mushrooms and rotting biomass.
#031 Hadgeit
Hadgeits are a rare, holy creature that are believed to be the physical manifestation of an ancient god of light. They are extremely rare and are typically found in the presence of other holy creatures. They have a variety of magical abilities, including the ability to create light and to heal themselves and others. When threatened, they can also use their light to blind their attackers and scurry away.
#128 Sprindull
Sprindulls are extremely large, short-haired bears that live extraordinarily long lives in the deserts with no known predators. Their intelligence level has been measured as slightly above human level and older sprindulls have shown an innate capability for understanding human language, although they don't have the vocal chords necessary to formulate their own human speech. Desert towns will often adopt a sprindull of their own as a kind of mascot, forming a symbiotic relationship between the town and the bear.
#214 Ithant
Ithants are huge, crab-like creatures that can be found in the forests. The sound of their heavy footsteps is sometimes mistaken for the sound of falling trees. Ithants have six legs and are very quiet, only making loud noises when walking. Ithants are capable of running extremely long distances in a short amount of time due to their long legs, but they don't have the endurance to run for very long.
#165 Shaleel
The shaleel is a large, multi-colored reptile that inhabits the swamps and wetlands of Oorzh. Being mostly aquatic, the shaleel usually only comes to land when it is voluntarily wanting to shed its skin. Shaleels have a long, constantly-tapping tail that produces an electrical current that they use to incapacitate fish while hunting. When a predator or a new potential mate approaches, the shaleel will raise its tail high above its head and then slam it down; if the creature is a potential mate, the electrical current will cause an explosion of green sparkles that attracts the mate. If the creature is a predator, the explosion will usually ward it off.
#304 Yahak
Yahaks are small and brightly colored birds. They have hearts that beat very rapidly and are able to fly extremely quickly, though sometimes they have difficulty turning when flying at their highest speeds. When they first hatch from their eggs, they are incredibly shy and will often spend several days in their nest. However, as they grow older they will become much braver and will often be found swooping around other animals, as they enjoy being around other creatures.
#291 Vorivo'r
The vorivo'r is a small alpine creature that lives in the snowy mountains. It is covered in burred fur, with a small round body and a large head. It is about the size of a human hand, and feeds on small insects and worms. Vorivo'rs run with a distinctive, scuttling gait that is easy to mistake for a spider. During warmer winters, vorivo'rs will burrow deep underground to hibernate. While hibernating, they snore so loudly the ground may rumble at times.
#338 Flarthog
Flarthogs are a species of wandering, burrowing creatures that look like tiny pink hedgehogs with giant ears. They have no concept of personal property and will take whatever they want from each other or people's homes, though once they have an object, they usually carry it around with them everywhere. Each flarthog has a unique personality, and some are known to be very aggressive. Their only source of food is a slimy bacterial organism that they grow on the underside of their quills, which commonly leads to bouts of cannibalism in some areas.
