egg drop sea sprite
This type of sky serpent carries its eggs on the bottom of its tail for protection from predators. The gestation period is short– 8 days– and the eggs hatch when the sky’s ocean is at its warmest. The Leafy dragon is very attune to the movements of the planets above and it follows the gravity fields of aligned planets by memorizing celestial trajectories.
citrus sea sprite
This sky serpent moves in large herds to evade predators. It’s bright colors are both attractions for mates and a method of pattern camouflage against the dotted skies.
paraceratherium
The Paraceratherium is an herbivore megafauna living on land. It feasts on seaweed and kelp, while the babies eat moss and sea algae. The Paraceratherium lives in herds, and its size allows it to reach the top of the kelps, where the sweetest fruit has absorbed the most sunlight. Babies stay in the same herd as their mothers for life. It’s thought that the Paraveratherium’s heavy steps pack down the land, keeping it from evaporating into the atmosphere.
jelly cuttlefish
The cuttlefish uses its translucent, light body to morph into the sky background as camouflage from the Sleeper Shark, its only predator. They travel in herds and abide by pack psychology to subvert the sleeper’s predation.
cerberus mother
Cerberus is always mothering a group of kits. It has a pact with the stags, where they prey on the griffin’s eggs after attacking the solo griffin mother as a pack. They farm the eggs, waiting for them to grow to full maturity and hatch before eating the babies.
bat-eared canid
Using echolocation, The bat canid can find the activity of the griffin’s eggs, which vibrate to produce heat after the griffin mother has been killed.
sealipede
Sealipede swims fast, escaping any predator with its abundant fins and energy stored in fat. It’s spotted coat is ideal for camouflage against the reflections on the lake bottom below. It glows at nighttime and has clear hairs to absorb sunlight.
sleeper shark
The Sleeper Shark only awakens from hibernation for 12 days of a 55 day year. In this activity, it terrorizes and decimates the cuttlefish population which has spiked during hibernation. Though the cuttlefish is highly toxic, the sleeper shark has 8 thick stomachs to dissolve the toxins into base chemicals. Its mouth expands tenfold to swallow an entire herd of cuttlefish at once.
hector's porpoise
Though this species thrives here, it is the rarest and smallest of porpoise species on Earth. The porpoise, adapted to the freezing arctic waters, live around the arctic volcanic island unless to hunt elsewhere. They will bury themselves in the volcanic sand which is warmed by the magma in Sheol below.
lobe finned guppy
A descendant of the Coelacanth, a lobe finned fish, this fish uses its four lobed to both swim and traverse the firmament. As it walks along the firmament, its fins puncture holes, allowing the rain to fall through.
acid flounder
This flounder descendant uses an acidic, luminescent coating over its scales as protection against predators. It is rare and can live for hundreds of years if allowed the space to keep growing.
stag kimera
Like a baby tapir, the stag uses a spotted fur coat as camouflage in a dappled first. When the stag discovers a snake, it spits water into the hole where the snake hides, draws the snake out of hiding with its breath and swallows it. The stag then finds water and drinks large amounts of it to overcome the poison, and is renewed.
