Elves are not my favorite fantasy species. Having said this I always feel like they should have something aside from their ears that set them apart from humans. For example  extra animal features like horns, legs or tails.

The Kelp Dragon are carnivorous ambush predator that get between 3 to 4 feet and mainly inhabits kelp forests near the equator. Using their front limbs, they grip onto a stem of kelp. They remain completely still relying on their innate camouflage to not be seen by any potential prey or predators. Once a fish swims close enough the kelp dragon will snap their head out gripping onto and eating the unlucky fish. Although they are aquatic, these dragons do not possess gills. Instead heading to the surface to breathe. However, the relatively sedentary lifestyle of these creatures allows them to stay underwater for many hours at a time. If caught out in the open these dragons are practically defenseless easily being caught and eaten. During mating season the females of the species lay thousands of eggs on the stems of kelp being left to dusted by passing males. Once the babies hatch they are incredibly tiny, feeding on plankton, and possess gills that they eventually grow out of.

I always love depictions of the grim reaper as a sleep deprived hard worker. Death is not evil it is a part of life.

 The porcupine lizard is a herbivorous lizard native to the amazon in South America. They spend most of their days slowly moving across high branches to access fruit to eat. The brown and green coloring on their body always them to blend into the bark and foliage around them. This lizard has incredibly sharp spines along its back. So, when they sense danger they flatten against the branch. They then flex the spines from their relaxed positions. These spines pierce almost any predator that attempts to pick up or eat them.

A ghost known as the victorian woman. Though whether she actually died in that time period or not is up for debate. There is little actually known about the apparition itself. Its appearance seems to be of a long haired woman in a flowing dress, but accounts seem to vary. This is an artistic approximation of its form based on accounts. The apparition always appears in a flourish of mist and petals. Its intentions are unknown sometimes the person comes out of the mist just fine other times they simply disappear.

The Red Crested Dragon is a carnivorous, nocturnal ambush species that mostly feeds on smaller mammals. Snapping down with their relatively long necks, they eat their prey in one bite. They use their sense of smell to locate their prey. For much of the year they hunt and live on their own. Only gathering in groups to migrate from the upper parts of the United States to the lower part and mate during that time. These animals stands rougly 3.5 feet tall at the head and roughly 12 feet long.  Although they have an appearance similar to the Dromaeosauridae family of dinosaurs, they have no genetic relation. Their most prominent feature is the ball of feathers on their head that covers the eyes. However, this striking red color that gives them their name is only found on the males of the species. The females are instead a deep black and prefer the brightest red and largest ball when picking a mate. During mating season the females produce a pheromone that attracts males, that then engage in intimidation until one is left who then gets to mate with the female.

The Human Spider are the descendants of experiments done in Australia. These experiments were in an attempt to produce human spider hybrids that could be used for war. The results were much smaller than the researchers wanted, eventually the facility was abandoned. Human Spiders are the only recorded example of an eusocial spider species. A queen will find a proper location to spin a starter nest and start laying eggs. Once the eggs hatch the workers help expand the nest and go out to hunt insects. They hunting in groups using their front limbs to grip the insect, inject with venom from their fangs, and wrap them up to carry to the nest. The queens are an inch in length while the workers are only half an inch. The face on the abdomen provides both a deterant from attack and to distract from the more vunerable torso. Nests can contain up to 100 individual workers. These social spiders use a large combination of gestures and minor expressions to communicate with each other.

The Tad frog is a frog species that is found in Central and South America. Unlike many other frogs they retain some tadpole features keeping the tail and gills. These frogs use their webbed feet and powerful tails to propel themselves. Like at the tadpole state their main diet is plant matter, but also eat a variety of invertebrates. This species only comes out of the water for mating and laying eggs. They can survive on dry land as long as they do not dry out.

Sometimes when I'm relaxing and watching YouTube, I'll see a video mention a video game and think, "Oh, that sounds interesting, I'll wishlist it on Steam," only to get to Steam, type it in, and realize I already wishlisted the game a while ago. Then I just sit there feeling like a fucking dumbass.

The Grand Blue is a herbivorous terrestrial bird. This species does not naturally occur in the wild as they were genetically engineered. They were created to have powerful legs that allow them to run up to 40 mph. They also were given crushing beaks that can administer over 1,000 psi of force. The birds were made to imprint on only a few people and are incredibly protective of them and what they perceive as their territory. They are often kept by the wealthy and are used as status symbols to ride on or as security. The ones kept as riding birds are adorned with accessories. The model shown is a rescue so he only wears a bowtie.

The Ceratopsia Dragon is a comparitively tiny, herbivorous dragon that lives in trees in the jungle. They get their name from the resemblance they have to the now extinct Ceratopsian clade. During the day, these dragons are exclusively nocturnal barely moving during the day. The patterns on their skin allowing them to blend in almost completely into the canopy. Their large eyes allow them to see in low light levels. The diet of this dragon species mostly consists of fruit. During mating season, fights between males for females is decided over which has the larger horn and frill.

The Rattle Dragon is a carnivorous dragon that mainly reside in deserts. Rattle Dragons are ambush hunters using it's front limbs to bury themself in the sand. The dragon then lies in wait the sand coloring helping them blend in waiting until prey comes close to it. Feeling the vibrations in the sand, when the prey is close enough the rattle dragon will launch itself out of the sand. The species does utilize venom; instead it uses its razor sharp teeth to latch onto the prey and chokes the animal out with its muscular body. These animals are solitary only interacting with others of its species during mating season. The females will then later dig a hole to lay its eggs and leave them there. When threatened the dragon will bob its horned head and shake its tail rattle.
