#015 Verdebird
Weirdly, verdebirds glow a bright green color while also only being visible in the direct shadows of light passing through green-tinted glass, making it a rarity to actually observe one outside of controlled conditions. It's said that witnessing one is a terrible omen for things to come, but some groups of people worship them as a harbinger of change and carry shards of green glass with them wherever they go.
#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.
#131 Phembluf
Phemblufs are large, blue fish that live in the deeper, frozen parts of the northern oceans. Phemblufs average two to three feet long and have a long black, snout with a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth that can drill through ice with ease. Phembluf usually live in packs of 5 to 20, hunting and killing larger fish and aquatic mammals. They also enjoy eating seaweed and underwater plants. A chemical reaction in their blood keeps their skin in a perpetually-frozen state; however, upon death, their skin will melt and release their innards as a thick slime, which is extremely harmful to most aquatic ecosystems.
#216 Zelorgbia
Zelorgbian creatures are relatively simple jellyfish-related invertibrates that live on the edges of the ocean. Zelorgbians come on shore to bask in the sunlight and to lay their eggs. However, they can't move on land and risk dehydration if they're beached, so they choose to stay as close to the water's edge as possible. They are very sociable and will often move in huge herds, which sometimes get swept long distances by strong ocean currents.
#247 Rhaizel
The rhaizel is a quadrupedal creature with a long, spindly body. It has two sets of arms, one of which is normal in size and the other of which is short and stubby. It has a wide, fanged maw and small, beady eyes. Its skin is covered in stiff, sharp bristles and its legs are equipped with extra sets of claws for climbing. The rhaizel is an agile navigator of any environment and can move both quickly and quietly. Rhaizels reproduce asexually, with themselves, and lay a set of two dozen eggs per year.
#233 Pewarra
On the plains near the city, you can find the wingless pewarras that live in large herds, best known for their concave skeleton and recognizable gait. When threatened by a predator, pewarras will huddle together in a large circle and take turns making noises to scare the predator away. Depending on the herd and their range of possible sounds, this defense mechanism can be extremely effective — or ineffective.
#375 Dimensional Egg
This unique egg is laid by an unknown species. If you look inside the egg, you see a reflection of another dimension, which is different from egg to egg. The use of this egg is unknown, but since magical energy emanates from it, the benefit in magic will be great. Unfortunately, these eggs are rarely found.
#348 Krystalloise
This burrowing reptile calls home to deep, underground caverns. Krystalloise lack the typical claws found on other diggers, but are still capable of digging through softer grounds using a mixture of shovel-like fins and incredible strength; however, they often just live within natural caverns or those hollowed out by other creatures. Their dense, crystallized body makes them incredibly resilient to natural predators, but also makes them a high-value hunting target from humans who use their shells in jewelry. Krystalloise can often be found licking rocks and stalagmites for minerals, which their body converts to energy and sustenance.
#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.
