#089 Vieflhuse

Vieflhusen are skymantas that frequently dip below the clouds in search of food, fun, and friends. Although their eyesight is terrible, they are able to use an altered form of echolocation to sense a three-dimensional representation of the area and its inhabitants beneath them. Each Vieflhuse is able to reproduce asexually and typically carries litters of 4-8 small vieflhusen on their back after giving birth.

#056 Bertuisk

Bertuisks are large airfish that live above the clouds in large schools. Although they largely stay out of sight and move from area to area with the clouds, some cities will mount air attacks on the giant fish to keep too many from clustering. A single bertuisk typically feeds a whole city for a week.

#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.

#107 Vlaughd

Vlaughd are demonic-looking, bat-winged desert creatures. They have extremely long prehensile tongues and their saliva is acidic enough to corrode metal. They have razor-sharp teeth and large, blood-red eyes. They are highly carnivorous and will attack and eat almost any other creature they come across. They are extremely fast and agile, and will not hesitate to pick a fight with a much larger adversary.

#027 Mipurd Ballow

Mipurd Ballows are a small, primitive species of salamander that are found in the deepest cavities of melting ice sheets. They are extremely hardy and can survive in almost any environment, but they are slow-moving and are often considered weak by other living creatures. Mipurd Ballows are also extremely territorial and will fight to the death to defend their territory, which rarely goes well for them.

#241 Witango

Witango are large, sturdy crystalline beasts that spend most of their days laying down and enjoying a warm bath in temperate swampwater. They have a hard time getting out of their baths because they are so comfortable, so they employ the help of their children (witangolions) to pull them out when their bath is over. When a witango leaves their bath spot, they typically leave behind an assortment of subterrean crystals that spread from their body, which sell for large amounts to most traders.

#373 Dounreleon

The dounreleon is a large multi-legged animal similar to that of a mule, with a chameleon like ability to change its coloration depending on location, temperature, and the temperament of the dounreleon. They have a stocky build, thick horns for protection and offense, and four sets of ears underneath their horns, with one set smaller than the other and used for listening for higher frequencies. Considered to be a luxury use for transportation and cargo-carrying for the upper class of people who have managed to somewhat domesticate it, they are highly sought out for their strength and seemingly endless endurance. But that combination allows for their testy attitudes to be known at any point, which is why domestication is still not entirely complete, and many people have died at random while involved with a dounreleon. Most are aggressive, with the females more likely to cause casualties than the males, and headstrong. If it's a unique dounreleon that you seek, then good luck not dying at any given point.

#184 Urk

Urks are enormous creatures that look like a cross between a turtle and a dolphin. They have strong, boney shells and powerful fins they use to propel themselves through the water. Their shells also contain thousands of chitinous pearls, and they are hunted by poachers for this reason. Hunters believe the delicious urk meat also holds restorative properties. Urks typically live for hundreds of years and only reproduce once during their lifetime.

#260 Bulthoid

Bulthoids are rare creatures that live in almost every environment. Despite their strange appearance, bulthoids are actually a very intelligent race, capable of tool use and engineering. Bulthoid society is built on a system of meritocratic communism with a focus on community support and direct communication, where everyone votes and participates in the political processes of their community. This inherent group effort makes bulthoid societies extremely resiliant to both local predators and more existential threats in their chosen ecosystems.
