So once again here are some more of the creatures found in our book~ Some of them are more aggressive creatures, but a few are more passive~ As always.
Banburr - "term used for referring to the gentle giant cow"
These creatures are extremely compassionate and expressionate beings. They honk, whistle, and whiffle as a means of communication. They can form strong bonds with their owners and can live up to 200-300 years. So long as they live a long healthy lifestyle. They can run on four legs or two. But because their bodies are so massive they can only sprint on two legs before needing to trot on four. The males are mainly used for their strength and are primarily the choice steed for merchants. But nomads and travelers will typically choose the female for her milk over strength. As they are not needed to haul large loads. The female's milk is subtly sweet and floral tasting, but in general, the Banburr's milk is creamier and can be used for cheeses and other cooking. Though like most creatures from the primordial realms, again these creatures bones, claws, horns, and beaks are made up entirely of a crystaline keratin. Which is prized by human game hunters but not to the Abnormal society.
Kaddacus - "term used for referring to the one who is gluttonous"
The Kaddacus is a dangerous and unpredictable creature. They detest any sort of light. The Kaddacus is a subterranean monster that lives in water. Much like an amphibian, though for these creatures direct sunlight dries out and fries their skin on contact. So these creatures will only hunt at night to get their prey. When they do find prey they will swallow them whole and store them in their first stomach till they get to their den. Which is usually a dark deep crevice where they can regurgitate their food while they're still alive. Then leave them to find more. These creatures do not need to eat but only once a week. Because their digestion is so slow. So they will eat one big meal when it is time for them to feed. But once enough prey is collected they will gorge themselves and fill both their stomachs. While the second breaks their food down the second will feed in the remaining prey stored. Though they do have teeth, they do not use them. Their teeth is mainly superficial. Only for display purposes.
Wulkinth - "term used for referring to the one who is deathless"
These creatures are never good to come across. Whereas they are slow-moving and usually just threatening to look at, their blood is extremely toxic and can infect you with a flesh-eating fungal infection that can quickly spread if left untreated. They are notorious for their endless movement as they drag their bodies along. Because they are deathless in a sense. But not immortal in body... So as a result their bodies decay and rot while they still move. Parts of them will break off as they go and help to fertilize the earth, but still toxic should you touch it while it's still wet. They will continue to move even if the bones have tendon and muscle still attached. They will only finally stop moving when nothing is left but bone. But their brain will continue to work till it too rots away...
