#101 Dhagarem
Dhagarems are a common species of invisible beast that can be found across the world, but most commonly in unsettled areas. They are mostly nocturnal, but their shadows can sometimes be seen in the day if they wake up hungry. It is unclear what dhagarems actually eat.
#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.
#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.
#218 Sihzzh
A sihzzh is an aquatic creature with a variety of strange habits related to constantly shedding its hardened skin. They usually live in large lakes or in the briny depths of the ocean, where they prowl the water in an almost never-ending search for food. Sihzzh are not social creatures and will easily fight to the death over a single fish. Luckily, even when a sihzzh is hurt, it can heal quickly by exposing its wounds to the sun; after a few hours, all injuries will be completely mended, and the sihzzh will go back to hunting.
#171 Horsnau
These radioactive snails descend from the common snail but have mutated to grow branching, interconnected shells around long, eel-like bodies. Horsnaus typically live 20-25 years and then die in their shell, which is often too intricate to be reused by another horsnau. While a horsnau shell isn't particularly hard or structurally sound, their toxic, foul-smelling meat deters most would-be predators.
#168 Magmatuna
Magmatuna is a cursed mutation of the freshwater tuna, resulting in a scalding hot internal temperature that is immediately devastating to any aquatic ecosystem. Their molten skin causes rapid evaporation of entire lakes and rivers, completely obliterating the ecosystem and resulting in nothing but burn marks and leagues of dead fish in a dry basin. The sighting of any smoke or mass-evaporation in a body of water should be immediately reported to the nearest government body.
#341 Karystel
Karystels are noted for their beauty, grace, and quickness. Their long, lithe bodies move like eels, and they have scales in shades of iridescent purple, blue, and green. They are very popular in the arts, both among dancers and musicians. Baby karystels look like tadpoles, but significantly grow in size over a maturation period of two years. It is not understood why some karystels develop human-like hands and some develop large tentacles for arms.
#340 Skaða
The skaða are an ancient race of corrupted energy, capable of destroying entire planets in the blink of an eye. It is said that skaða lose one of their countless eyes every time they witness the death of another universe, and the Elder skaða is said to have only one eye remaining. Although skaða are capable of basic speech and throat singing, the sound they produce can only be heard by young girls. Skaða meat is a delicacy in the northernmost continent, where the once-diverse skaða populations have largely all migrated to.
#120 Cuuyn
A cuuyn is a strange, slow-moving creature that can only survive in areas where the air contains a certain, top-secret compound. A cuuyn's lifespan is directly correlated with the density of the compound it breathes: the denser, the longer the cuuyn will live, with no documented upper limit. As a cuuyn ages, its bodily cycles speed up exponentially, significantly increasing its metabolism, gestation period, and immune systems. It is widely believed that cuuyns were artificially created for government animal testing, but no one has ever found proof.
