#075 Vwamil
The first vwamil discovered swam out of a hot springs in a crowded, national park in the winter. The park was immediately shut down for investigation into what the unknown creature was, which then led to the discovery that vwamils commonly live in the deepest crevasses in many popular hot springs around the world. Why that first vwamil left the boiling water for a cold, winter day is still unknown.
#043 Volcrano
Every volcano has at least one volcrano maintaining it. They do their best to keep out of sight but volcranos are bulky and slow. Volcanos as a species have been fate-bound to feed the volcanic lava until the end of time in order to keep it from seeking food outside of the volcano. It's the instinct they have immediately upon birth and it's the instinct they'll still be mindlessly striving for upon their inevitable death.
#032 Frestnoch
Frestnoches evolved a thick fur across their abdomen to keep them warm in the harsh northern climates and have a varying amount of large, chitinous spikes protruding from their body that they use as tools to survive in the harsh wilderness. They largely eat trees and large bushes, but they also cut down trees to make large, circular piles for their egg nests. After laying their eggs, they'll cover their nest and remain inside to produce the warmth necessary for the eggs to grow, only leaving when necessary to collect more trees for food or when threatened.
#146 Forsydifs
Forsydifs are a variant of ant that has evolved to live on the backs of humanoids, from whom they eat dead skin cells. They spend most of their lives crawling between the dermis and epidermis of their hosts and are capable of surviving on just dead skin and perspiration for their entire lives. They do not harm their hosts and are considered to be beneficial as they clean the skin and help prevent infection.
#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.
#297 Kensix
Kensixes are large, nocturnal reptiles that live in the desert. They are about the size of a car, and have a thick exoshell of chitin which protects them from the sun's rays as well as any physical attacks. To hunt, a kensix will use their deft legs to chase down their prey and repeatedly smash them with their gigantic body, sometimes leaping hundreds of feet in the air to crush unsuspecting prey from above. They are omnivorous, eating whatever meat they can find. Within their shell, kensixes have six rows of elongated incisors.
#269 Oceanstar
The oceanstar is a common salt-water marine mollusk. Oceanstars got their name from sailors who could just barely make out twinkling lights beneath the ocean waves in the pitch of night. Oceanstars are herbivores that feed on microplants and detritus that settle along the ocean floor. Although oceanstars are beautiful to look at from afar, touching one may permanently damage its ability to emit light.
#287 Chillopiar
Chillopiars are aquatic animals that live in the depths of the ocean. They are composed of many small pieces of coral and sponge, which can be detached and reattached by contracting muscles in their bodies. If a chillopiar is injured and loses a piece of itself, it can regenerate it by eating another chillopiar. They are highly social, and they communicate with each other by emitting and receiving different frequencies of light, including some on a spectrum invisible to humans.
#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.
