A wild creature appears!

Shaleel

The shaleel is a large, multi-colored reptile that inhabits the swamps and wetlands of Oorzh. Being mostly aquatic, the shaleel usually only comes to land when it is voluntarily wanting to shed its skin. Shaleels have a long, constantly-tapping tail that produces an electrical current that they use to incapacitate fish while hunting. When a predator or a new potential mate approaches, the shaleel will raise its tail high above its head and then slam it down; if the creature is a potential mate, the electrical current will cause an explosion of green sparkles that attracts the mate. If the creature is a predator, the explosion will usually ward it off.

#057 Eowiz

At some point, a cat wandered somewhere it shouldn't and was forever changed with an infusion of magical energy. That cat's offspring were the first eowiz in history, which showed increased intelligence, stealth, and magical ability. Eowiz typically stay out of sight, preferring instead to use their wits and powers to influence the politics of small towns from the shadows in between long cat naps in the sun. However, some do choose to live with human families under the guise of being a normal cat.

#122 Cerdathif

Cerdathifs are a colorful variant of cerdath that typically live near the base of tall mountains. They make nests with collections of hand-picked rocks and spend most of their time meditating on the nature of the universe. Their bodies are covered in a thick layer of orange fur, which protects them from the cold. They are not hostile towards other races and do not engage in violence, prefering instead to forage or go hungry.

#140 Fydern

The fydern is a green creature roughly the size of a human fingernail. It has twelve short legs and two wiggling antennae, which it uses to catch microscopic bugs. Its body is covered in a thick, greasy layer of skin and fat. If a fydern is taken out of water, its legs will fold in, its antennae will become rigid, and it will quickly become a rock and die. Solid fydern are sometimes polished and sold as gemstones to those who don't know better, as they don't begin to stink until months after dying.

#081 Eieliez

Eieliezen are knee-high, bird-like creatures that are known for their remote eye, which they can often be seen holding but will also leave behind in their nest to watch their young with while they're out hunting or gathering. Not much is known about how an eieliez is able to see from their completely-disconnected eye. It is believed that they are also capable of growing additional eyes over time and simultaneously seeing from multiple eyes at a time.

#200 Norpin

Norpins are small, fluffy creatures that resemble a cross between a squirrel and a mouse. They have short, spindly legs and a long, windy tail, and their bodies are covered in soft, brown fur. This little creature is notable in nature for having no bones in its legs and very few bones in its body; rather than relying on a skeletal system for bodily structure, norpins have very strong muscles that hold their shape and enable an extremely wid range of movement. Norpins are also very intelligent and have excellent memories; they also have a good sense of smell and can hear very low-frequency sounds, including many of those emitted from the earth during natural geological events. Norpins are generally peaceful creatures but are known to become very violent when threatened. They live in large nests with others and spend most of their time foraging for food.

#199 Hæglre

Hæglres are large, flightless birds that spend most of their time scavenging for food in the snow-covered plains of the world. They are very social creatures that live in groups of up to twenty individuals. In the harsher winters, they will gather together to keep each other warm. Hæglres are also very territorial and will attack any creatures that get too close to their nest, but they live so far away from most other life that this rarely occurs.

#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.

#175 Nemmen

Nemmen are small, purple fish that frequent reefy areas and the deep sea, but are also commonly caught to resell as consumer pets. They are soft to the touch and like to be pet by their owners, unlike most other fish. When nemmen are happy, they blow small bubbles that they play with, often swimming circles around each bubble. Most nemmen live two or three years.

#204 Klelag

Klelags are peaceful creatures of the southern tropical islands. They live in groups of around ten and create elaborate, beautiful nests of grass and palm fronds out at sea. Their favorite food is the silver-striped pike-perch, which they can be found fishing for in the shallows. Klelags are mostly harmless, but they do have one weird defense mechanism that they'll instinctively use if they feel threatened: They will expand the membranes of their wings and hop over their prey, painfully raking their enemy with the sharp barbs lining their wings.
