The Races of Animalia

[Tour Guide Boletta]

Owls
Native to: Innawoods

​

Tell an owl someone said they’re wise birds, and they might ask you, “Who?” Heheh. In all honesty, owls have no more or less wisdom than anyone else - that is, it depends on which owl you’re asking! One thing owls do have is a crazy sense of hearing; can you hear a mouse in a snowbank?! They didn't think so!

Spiders
Native to: Innawoods

​

What has four arms, four legs, and loves giving hugs? Uh, well, probably some spiders, we’d assume, though some not-so-nice people think they look a little spooky. A lot of spiders find this very unfortunate and think they’re quite cute, however, so maybe you should give them more of a chance, next time? They'll even split the bill!

Tanuki
Native to: Innawoods

​

The dumpy, rotund cousin of Big City’s native raccoons, tanuki are well known for one thing - their big, round … bellies. It’s probably best if you don’t point it out, though; what if they’re self-conscious? Tsk.

Karp
Native to: So Deep

But nothing happened!

Octopuses
Native to: So Deep

​

If you ever need an extra hand … maybe don’t ask an octopus. Their tentacles don’t have fingers, after all, so that wouldn’t be very useful, would it? Why would you want to make them feel bad like that?

Sharks
Native to: So Deep

​

Despite their sharp teeth, not all sharks are fearsome! Many sharks enjoy a diet of nothing but fruits and vegetables, even. There might be very well perforated pieces of lettuce, but there’s nothing really frightening about that… unless you see what one can do to a carrot. My goodness.

Whale Sharks
Native to: So Deep

​

Gentle giants, whale sharks are big citizens that often spend their lives entirely in the sea. While recent inventions and waterways make it much easier for them to visit other locations, their generally large size sometimes discourages them from making the effort. Make sure to encourage your friends ... with pizza!

Isopods
Native to: So, So Deep

​

Sometimes being hard-headed isn’t a bad thing, and most isopods would probably argue this is one of those times. With a super-protective shell and multiple arms, these citizens can be a superpower if they want to be!

Jellyfish
Native to: So, So Deep

​

Drifting along in the endless deep, jellyfish are thought to be calm and collected citizens. Really, it’s just kind of hard to move once you get so far down in the ocean; do you have any idea how much pressure there is, way down? More than forgetting to study for that test on Tuesday!

Nudibranchs
Native to: So, So Deep

​

Bright denizens of the abyss, nudibranchs come in all sorts of shapes and colors. Of course, so do other citizens, but it seems to be a point of pride for many of them. With their long bodies and limbs, these animals are some of the biggest citizens as well - maybe they just like to be ‘larger than life?’

Sea Dragons
Native to: So, So Deep

​

Graceful serpents of the great blue, the sea dragons are to the water what lung are to the skies. That is to say, they’re long, noodly things that wiggle about to get from point A to point B - whether or not they do so with any great amount of elegance is anyone’s guess.

Frogs
Native to: Swampy Bog

​

A frog is, by all accounts, many things, and could be many more. However, if you really look at the facts, no matter if that frog is tall or short, round or thin, quiet or loud, there is one thing that a frog most assuredly is: a friend.

Moff
Native to: Swampy Bog

​

Not to be confused with your common moth, moffs are their own thing altogether. Whether fluttering in the treetops or hopping along mangrove roots, these agile citizens are a common sight in the watery pathways of Swampy Bog. Be sure not to pull their tails - they’re quite sensitive!

Salamanders
Native to: Swampy Bog

​

Smooth-skinned citizens of the swamp, salamanders often love to swim through the wetlands. Their soft flesh dries up easily in low humidity, so taking a dip helps keep them nice and hydrated. As to getting dirty, well, that’s what the slime coat’s for, right?

Alpacas
Native to: Tall Mountain

​

More than just a really tall sheep, alpacas are impressively fluffy friends from the mountainside. They’re also quite warm, and that’s very important. They’re also an unfortunate rival to the sheep wool industry, giving rise to bitterness between some groups - even though there’s plenty of backs for everyone’s sweaters!

Angoras
Native to: Tall Mountain

​

Thick-furred cousins of the more urban rabbit, angoras are bigger and slower than those spritely citizens. All that hair really takes it out of you, you know? Some of them have recently tried breaking into the wool sweater market, too, but it’s really a lot of work brushing it all out. Someone’s gonna need some more arm days!

Chinchillas
Native to: Tall Mountain

​

Unlike alpacas and angoras, chinchillas are residents of Tall Mountain that seem pretty interested in keeping their fur. That’s a bit of a shame, since it’s the softest of all - though we won’t tell the others. Chinchillas can keep that secret for themselves!

Goats
Native to: Tall Mountain

​

Though some people find it difficult to understand how hooves are so good at traversing rocky cliffs, the fact of the matter is that many goats are excellent at it. While that’s very fortunate for them, it’s rather unfortunate for well-meaning travelers calling emergency services because they’ve seen a goat hopping along some sheer faced ridge. If they’re not falling, they probably know what they’re doing, we promise!

Lindwurmes
Native to: Tall Mountain

​

Often thought of as reclusive, lindwurmes are more often than not just rarely seen. It isn’t necessarily from not wanting to be as much as there simply aren’t as many of them as some of the other natives of Tall Mountain. No one really knows why, but don’t let those rumors keep you from saying hi if you do see one. You might really make someone’s day!

Axolotls
Native to: Ancient Valley

​

Swimming in the warm lakes of Ancient Valley, many think that axolotls resemble the more modern salamander of Swampy Bog. However, these slimy citizens still seem to have gills, something that no civilized amphibian would be caught with - or so some certain anonymous individuals have said. Axolotls don’t seem to mind that they’re viewed as prehistoric, however, as their frilly appendages let them sink below the waves for long periods and ignore all the haters.
