#077 Fring
Frings are a species with the ability to change their size at will. Permanent aspects of their society like their homes and businesses are incredibly tiny and can only be seen or used while they're their smallest size, but they often size up when exploring their surroundings or adventuring together. They are able to survive off very little food and water by shrinking down when they eat.
#004 Avahi
Not much is known about where avahis originated, but they migrate in large packs extremely quickly, typically along water-adjacent routes. Their small stature and nimble speed makes them difficult to track and their spiny exterior carapace provides an excellent defense against most would-be predators. If you see one avahi, chances are there are many more avahis nearby; they communicate quietly with hand gestures and whole-body movement.
#129 Axytun
Axytuns are a small species of landfish native to the rolling fields of the east. Although axytuns are naturally pitch black, albinism is so rampant in the species that black axytuns are often captured and resold as expensive pets. They are born in litters of ten to twenty, and are kept together in a pack by the same mother for their entire lives. Axytun packs are very loyal to each other and will aggressively squeak at any creature that threatens one of their own.
#006 Dune Beetle
Dune beetles are the speedsters of the desert. You wouldn't expect it given their colossal size, but these severely-overgrown bugs can reach speeds of over a hundred miles per hour across flat land. Their flight, however, is much slower and more controlled. It's a shame the dune beetle is so aggressive and temperamental, because it would make a great domesticated vehicle for those who live in the desert.
#133 Reeborra
Reeborras are large, herbivorous creatures native to the planet of the same name. They are closely related to the earth sloth and are often found in the desert dunes. They have short tails that consistently drip water when they're calm, which other creatures often latch on to when thirsty. Reeborras are very peaceful creatures and are often hunted by poachers for their distinctive skull and large water sac.
#250 Parloi
Parlois are large, herbivorous reptiles without a face that spend most of their time in the water. They are easygoing, almost to a fault. They will often ignore predators and let them eat them if it means that they can continue to relax. Their favorite food is leaves that have fallen from trees, and they have a strong grip that allows them to hold a floating branch on the water’s surface for hours as they munch away.
#231 Ephflynne
Ephflynnes are enormous creatures that swim through the air at speeds of up to one thousand miles per hour. They're completely translucent, but they can change the wavelength of light they reflect to blend in with their surroundings or to make themselves visible. They eat massive amounts of vapor every day, which they track and locate by following a pheremone known as sugreth. An ephflynne can grow to be ten miles long and can live for hundreds of years.
#161 Adrakas
The adrakas is a giant leathery fish about the size of a small city. Its highly porous skin allows it to breathe in the water or on land, and its mouth is designed to eat all manner of creatures, from mammals to plants to rocks. The adrakas lifespan has yet to be determined, but they've been reported to have endured through more planetary-scale changes and geologic periods than mankind has. They have no known predators.
#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.
