#020 Starbug

Fully-grown starbugs make up the majority of visible lights in the night sky with their planet-sized bodies, but baby starbugs hatch and spend most of their pre-celestial life on abandoned planets until they learn to fly well enough to pierce gravity wells. When their eggs are laid in space, they are made of one of the strongest materials known to man. They drift endlessly, often for centuries, until they find a planet with sufficient gravitational pull to draw them into its atmosphere. The meteoric impact is what cracks the shell and releases a newborn starbug.

#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.

#053 Electrofly

Electroflies are gaseous clusters of friendly, intelligent sublife that often physically get caught in airwave currents or magnetic fields, scattering the cluster in a perpetual cycle of trying to reform the cluster's desired shape and structure, which resembles a large, pearlescent butterfly.

#021 Red Vasamee

The Red Vasamee is a rodent-like creature that is notable for evolving over time to be strictly vegetarian after a meat-bourne illness nearly caused their extinction. These days they prowl through fields looking for seeds and berries, but will also settle for blander meals like grass and plant stalks.

#376 Birbanna

The Birbanna (Avibanana mysticus) stands as a distinctive and curious fictional species, seamlessly merging the features of a flightless avian and a tropical fruit. Native to the idyllic landscapes of Fruitalis Isle, Birbannas exhibit a striking resemblance to oversized bananas, adorned in resplendent yellow plumage reminiscent of sunlit bananas. Notably, their mode of communication is a phenomenon that sets them apart - employing exclusively muffled riddles to convey their thoughts. This unique linguistic trait contributes to their aura of enigma, captivating the imagination of those fortunate enough to encounter them. As arboreal inhabitants, Birbannas fulfill a role of ecological stewardship within their verdant habitat, offering veiled insights and wisdom through their cryptic dialogues. The profound blend of whimsy and depth associated with these avian enigmas has established Fruitalis Isle as a haven where intrigue and sagacity harmonize in the form of the Birbanna.

#303 Fenngmoth

Fenngmoths are enormous moths with a wingspan of nearly 250 meters. They are strong enough to carry several tons at a time in their claws. They're able to fly very quickly for their size, and they will often swoop down to grab large animals from the ground. After catching a creature, fenngmonths store it in their devoursac until it is fully absorbed. Fenngmoths are normally only active at night. During the day, they hide in clouds.

#273 Jideoray

Jideorays are a parasitic orange slime common in the warmer oceans that attaches itself to creatures to feed directly on their skin. Small fish will sometimes allow members of their school to host jideorays, as the toxic pheremone they produce also wards off most predators. Jideorays have a hard time keeping their host alive for long periods of time, but extend their lifespan somewhat by completely covering their eaten flesh with a bright orange jelly. In rare cases, some animals may find themselves completely enveloped by this orange slime while still alive. At this point the jideoray will often assume complete muscular control over the creature for the rest of its life.

#339 Karkat

Karkats are medium-sized creatures that spend most of their time on the ocean floor, though they will occasionally come to the surface for air. They have hollow bones and two long, nearly prehensile tails that help them to swim quickly. When they are at the surface, they tend to gather in large groups and quietly observe the world around them. They have very soft skin and are very gentle creatures.

#347 Spectrowl

This large avian is colloquially known as the "master of camouflage" because of the hard, spectral shards that cover its body. These scales contain thousands of prisms that capture ambient light and reflect a perfect representation of an uninterrupted atmosphere, effectively rendering the spectrowl invisible at most wavelengths. Because spectrowl shards are so delicate, their system camouflage can easily be damaged or disrupted in the event of a physical injury; when this happens, they have been known to reflect laser-focused beams of light that may temporarily or permanently blind those nearby. In ancient times, spectrowl were thought to be creatures from another dimension and were purposefully injured at large gatherings to produce great spectacles of light.
