#012 Val'anur
The val'anur is a monstrous beast of the tundra. What it lacks in speed it makes up for in determination and force. Val'anurs never sleep, which allows them to chase their prey indefinitely. Their gigantic paws sport deadly claws that tear exhausted prey to pieces, which val'anurs slowly savor until moving onto their next meal.
#193 Udeneth
The udeneth is a large, light-colored creature that somewhat resembles a llama. It has no ears or nose and must rely on sight and touch to find its food. Udeneths are found on mountainsides where they frequently burrow into the snow, where they will sleep, store food, or hide from other creatures. They are very sensitive to light and will glow when they are touched or if they feel threatened.
#005 Thabu
Thabus are hulking creatures of ancient history that have survived over time by melding with mountains and hibernating. They awake every thousand or so years to see if the world is a better place, but a thabu invariably goes back to sleep after each short period awake. No one is sure what exactly they're waiting for.
#064 Ytrail
Ytrail are large snail-like creatures found in frozen areas. Their shell is an immaculate conductor of heat, which keeps their body warm on even the coldest days. Domesticated ytrails are often ridden by small children to get to and from school and their friends' houses.
#088 Fustonin
Fustonins are small, blue birds that live near active volcanoes. They are extremely light and can fly at speeds of up to 300 mph. They have no beaks and instead use the hard, pointed end of their shoulder to peck at the sides of a volcano and pry off lava rocks that they then carry back to their nests. Because of their shiny, blue color and friendly demeanor, fustonin are often kept as pets and are a popular subject for many children's books, where they're referred to as "fussies".
#155 Gebloon
The gebloons are a race of intelligent beings that resemble orange blobs with a face. They are about 3 feet tall and have four arms and two legs, although those appendages are usually part of their blob and out of sight when not in use. Gebloons live in small, highly-political villages scattered across their planet of G'bledula, which orbits a red giant that emits large amounts of radiation they absorb for food and energy through a modified form of photosynthesis. Although some gebloons have been brought to our planet, they have a hard time surviving off the sun's comparatively minimal radiation and are less energetic and visibly less saturated as a result.
#179 Zath'og
Zath'ogs are a small, muscular species of warm-blooded reptile. Their skin is a dark green and rough, with microscopic scales all over their body. They are often found in groups of ten or more, communicating through telepathy. They usually eat meat, but some have been seen to eat vegetation as well. Zath'ogs are known for their meek, tentative temperament and are sometimes considered to be the "creepy-crawly" of the tundra. They are thought to be very intelligent and capable of complex problem-solving and reasoning, although research efforts to learn more about this ancient creature have all been stunted by unrelated onsets of serious illness.
#349 Flayansk
The flayansk originates in the far north, in the freezing highlands of Cotsk. Flayansk vary wildly in size throughout their life, growing quickly from the size of rodents to the size of large boulders, then eventually shrinking back to microscopic levels as they reach old age. No matter their size, however, flayansk struggle with their weight: since they weigh less than air, these creatures will hold themselves close to the ground with their massive claws so they don't float away into the atmosphere. Although flayansk can go for weeks (or, in some cases, months) without eating, starvation is still their leading cause of death due to being unable to get back down to the ground once they start floating away.
#276 Vuvegge
Vuvegges are small insects common to forests and jungles that don't develop a sense of sight until a late stage of life. During their early "formative" years, vuvegges use their large eyeballs as sacs to store additional food or resources. Vuvegge packs are instantly recognizable by a unique hand-holding phenomenon. Elder vuvegges will lead familial packs using their developed eyesight while younger vuvegges will often specialize in collecting specific resources, storing as much as they can so they can provide to anyone in the group when needed. Even when passing resources between the pack, vuvegges will rarely unlink their hands and instead use an auxillary appendage to pass resources around the pack. Vuvegge packs move in perfect lockstep and are largely considered pests by human settlements, even though vuvegge are nocturnal herbivores that typically keep to themselves.
