#001 Haissa
Haissa are a friendly species distantly related to frogs. They spend most of their time climbing trees to find great vantage points to observe the ongoings of life below and have been known to purposefully shake branches to drop food for hungry creatures below.
#149 Softwalker
Softwalkers are a very strange and exotic beast that lives in the tundras of the world, connected to a specific species of plant in a symbiotic way. A softwalker has a very large, fluffy coat of hair that covers its entire body except for its face, which is surrounded by a fringe of long, white hair. Although their body is quite strong, the typical softwalker is rather cowardly, and will often run and hide at the first sign of danger. No matter the terrain, softwalkers never emit any sounds while walking or running.
#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.
#226 Muludar
The muludar is a species of crab that can be found in many areas of the ocean. They have an average length of six to nine inches and an average weight of eighty pounds. Muludars are typically bright red in color and have large pincers that can be used to crush coral or grab food. Muludar crabs are a bane to net fishermen everywhere, as their density and weight often tear through all but the hardiest of fishing nets. These crustaceans also have one large eye and a variable number of legs.
#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.
#275 Foyud
Foyud are small insects that look like perched butterflies. However, foyuds are actually more closely related to arachnids that wear "wings" purely for decoration and dissuading predators. Beneath their wings, foyuds walk on dozens of tiny articulated legs. Foyuds cannot fly or even jump, and spend most of their time slowly stumbling from vegetation to vegetation in constant search of food.
#326 Kawa-tri
Kawa-tri are bulbous, tree-like creatures that live in forests. They thrive in the shade of other trees and grow much faster when they are standing near other kawa-tri. When a kawa-tri senses that it is in danger, its entire body will harden, effectively turning it into a tree. This makes it difficult for predators to eat it, as the tough bark is not easily digested. However, kawa-tri will sometimes harden to protect themselves from the rain and will die if left too long in this state.
#259 Gghun'vur
Gghun'vur are small insects with 13 legs that live in the coldest frozen tundras in the world. Their internal body temperature is very close to absolute zero, which severely limits the temperatures they can survive in; harsh, freezing temperatures comparatively feel like a sunny day to them and they manage to keep warm in these environments. Gghun'vur hunt other insects and small creatures via a combination of high-speed sprinting and a powerful jump, which the gghun'vur uses to tackle and wrap its legs around its prey, instantly freezing them. An enyzme from the gghun'vur's saliva breaks down biomass within frozen hunks as they lick it, allowing this small creature to consume entire frozen meals with just its small, barbed tongue.
#206 Mooshan
Mooshans are large, furry animals with thick, metallic fur. They live in forests and eat mostly plants, but they also like to hunt mice and other small animals. They are extremely intelligent and can learn to speak a language other than their own. They are covered in gold-laced fur that conducts heat extremely well, making them uncomfortably hot every summer and dangerously cold every winter. For this reason, wild mooshans typically prefer more mild climates.
