#085 Worgrad
Worgrads are small desert-dwelling creatures that subsist on a diet of insects, light rays, and gusts of desert wind. They are very small, with large, black eyes and soft, sandy-colored fur that feels like sandpaper. Worgrads live in small burrows, consisting of large, open rooms connected by winding tunnels, which they build themselves out of desert sand, clay, and plant matter. They spend most of their day sleeping, but they are very active at night, and can sometimes be heard climbing across the ceilings of their burrows making mysterious clicking noises.
#044 Zweifhlaightte
Zweifhlaughttes are colossal slugs from a time long before humans that have an interesting physiological compartmentalization not present in other species on the planet. The majority of the body remains buried underground in self-dug caves, while smaller pieces of the body detach and claw their way up to the surface, where they hunt for small animals. After they've consumed an excess of nutrients, the hunting appendages return underground and rejoin with their host body.
#043 Volcrano
Every volcano has at least one volcrano maintaining it. They do their best to keep out of sight but volcranos are bulky and slow. Volcanos as a species have been fate-bound to feed the volcanic lava until the end of time in order to keep it from seeking food outside of the volcano. It's the instinct they have immediately upon birth and it's the instinct they'll still be mindlessly striving for upon their inevitable death.
#130 Sylveph
Sylvephs are loud, obnoxious sheep with fine, silk fur. Farmers despise their constant bleeting and the incredible mess they make in the field. Although they slowly produce silver thread, their spoils must be thoroughly washed and disinfected to prepare them for use. Sylvephs prefer to eat mushrooms and rotting biomass.
#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.
#144 Stemilia
The stemilia are an ancient race of primates known for their extremely long, stilt-like legs. Although they historically cooperated with humanity in the distant past and lived in relative harmony with jungle villages, modern stemilia are significantly more aggressive and fearful of humans and prefer to live in villages of their own, far away from the nearest human town. Although stemilia legs are prone to breaking often, they will apply hand-made splints to remain upright and heal quickly with their fast-acting regenerative systems. As stemilia age, their legs will naturally thicken with muscle and fortified calcium deposits.
#312 Galum
Galums are ancient, majestic creatures born from the remains of ancient warriors. They were once sentient beings known as the "ustones," but were transformed by an unknown magic into massive, leathery creatures with two wings and a retractable tail. Galums can speak, but rarely do so; instead, they prefer to be silent, stoic, and hypervigilant. Although galums have wings, they weigh far too much to be able to fly; whether this was an intentionally cruel design or a safety mechanism for their makers has been lost to time.
#164 Finishi
The fabled finishi bird is most notable for its "perfect" camouflage as no living finishi has ever been sighted, even in areas estimated to be completely overrun by them based on the number of finishi carcasses found daily, such as in the titular Finishi Forest. Some small cult followings believe the finishi bird is a living embodiment of the forests they dwell in, while others see them taking a more active role as the guardian or protector of their forest. However, most are skeptical that these birds are anything more than just camouflage experts living a typical aviary life. There is also a prevailing belief among some regions that finishi don't exist at all, and that the carcasses found were simply crafted by those who "found" them, or planted there by nearby towns looking for increased tourism. Although no one is certain about what finishi birds are, where they came from, what they eat, or how they live, they are certainly birds that have swept the intrigue of the world by storm: cash prizes for sighting or live captures of finishi birds are prevalent and extremely lucrative... if possible.
#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.
