Aloria is rich in both fauna and flora. This page specifically is dedicated to all recorded, extinct or still living, animals that roam the world of Aloria. All animals are split into their relevant categories. Keep in mind that this list is not final and will be added to when necessary. As a player you may claim one of the animals and try to write a Player Lore-Write me, though remind yourself to consult Lore staff about any relevant descriptions! Anyone is permitted to Roleplay a domesticated feline, canine, or songbird where applicable. For any other wild animal, please consult Lore staff as some animals are too wild and hostile to survive in an urban city like Regalia.
Mammals
Primates
Includes all simians such as monkeys, apes, hominins, lemurs, lorisoids, and tarsiers.
Primates |
---|
| Ogre | Ogres are the chaotic gray beasts found in the north of Aloria, found throughout areas of southern Ellador and its surrounding islands, as well as some parts of New Ceardia. Large and dangerous, these creatures form small clans and tribes called “Truggs”, lead by a single Chieftain, both to ward off hunters and provide more resilience against the rival clans that might challenge them. These creatures first appeared around 50 AC, and despite the popularity of hunting them, continue to thrive in solitude or small numbers throughout Aloria. |
---|
| Troll | The Troll, a smaller and more reclusive cousin of the Ogre, is a monstrous beast to be found in southern Ellador and some of its neighboring states. Known to live solitary lives on their own, attempts to study Trollkind have been all but unsuccessful for the researchers, given the ferocity and violent nature of Trolls. Due to their murderous habits, the only relevance Trolls have to the sentient races of Aloria today is as prey in dangerous hunts. |

| Frosthorn | The Frosthorn, or more commonly known by the Northerne people as the Khyzhak, is undoubtedly the apex predator of Jorrhildr’s frozen wastes and Ellador’s icefields. Enormous, ferocious, and a relentless hunter, these great white monsters prowl through the snow and ice in search of prey to butcher; whether it be Ur, Thylan, or Ailor. Known for its grotesque size and strength, Frosthorns dominate the frosty landscape and are a menace to any unfortunate enough to cross their paths. |

| Elasmo | Elasmo, known as Aloria’s furry, horned horses, exist in various regions of Fendarfelle, Daendroc and New Ceardia. In the wild, these beasts are known for being very territorial, and will violently attack and gore anyone who steps too close to their home. Their large girth and long horns make up for their stubby legs, and they’re coated in a thick layer of cream, white, or black fur. They are certainly not as endearing as they may appear, and should be treated with caution when found in the wilderness. |

---|
| Ulaan | The sturdy and reddish-brown Ulaan Horse can be found across Ulaan-Ujuur in wild or in domesticated herds belonging to the Kifchuni Nomads. Bred to run long distances at steady paces, these horses can be found on the great tracts of grassland and occasional rivers they call their home. |

| Claesch | Although monstrously strange to those not native to the Muirdian continents, the Claesch is in fact one of the most common cattle animals in all the states.

| Northern Moose | The Northern Moose is a massive mammal that openly roams the landscape of Jorrhildr. Standing taller than the average Ailor, the Northern Moose is truly a majestic sight to behold, given it’s popularity among the locals. Due to the animal’s resistant nature, it has come to be widely accepted as the symbol of Jorrhildr and its denizens, acting as a testament to their much bolstered hardiness. |

| Qilin | While it is not completely unheard of to stumble across a Qilin in the wilds of the Yang Tzu, it is always a stunning sight. Lithe in their build and seemingly otherworldly thanks to their shimmering fur, these animals are hailed as some of the most beautiful in all of Aloria for good reason. These skittish deer are a rare find, but their pelts and horns make them a value to both the Island's inhabitants, and hunters from abroad. |

As the ever elusive and pursued furred devil of the fresh riverbanks, Minques are held in fond memory by most who share their continent. A very common sight by lakesides, a dear friend to some and good money waiting to be made to others, the Ithanian Minque is well-known on its home continent, and for good reason. |

These creatures are great in size, hitting four feet in height, several feet thick, and a staggering five hundred pounds when they reach their adult age. The Bathoggs have powerful tusks with a cone-like shape, used in fights and during the mating process.

Due to repeated poaching of the Maerrow, the little fish-people are very few in number, and prefer to remain more covert as opposed to hunting humans. |

| Regalian Spriggan | Regalian Spriggans are a herbivorous bird native to the Crown Isle of Regalia. At first glance they can be described as almost fairy-like due to their incessant need to coat their bodies in moss, foliage, and green matter, using a barbed beak to assist with this. They are a common bird in Regalia, but also very difficult to spot due to their camouflaging habits. |

| Niloom | Devastating and efficient, the Niloom stand as the apex predator on Ulaan-Ujuur, due to their quick reproduction rates and odd avian features.

| Mooan | Mooan are large, wingless birds found roaming the expansive grasslands of Daendroc. Eating a simple diet of insects and seeds, these creatures are endlessly preyed upon. Most consider the wingless fowl to be incredibly useless and stupid overall. While the flightless birds see their fair share of peril, they certainly aren’t as thick as most would first assume. |
---|
| Ollivear | Ollivear resemble large, birdlike Ogres with arms and long feathers. They are hostile and dangerous predators that grow as tall as an Orc in height and far wider in girth. While native to Guldar, they have also made nests in Daendroc due to the Orcs transporting eggs during their great exodus. |

| Feathered Dragon | The Feathered Dragons were the only Dragon species presumed native to the Regalian Archipelago in the many millennia before their eventual assumed extinction around 20 BC. The Feathered Dragons are best remembered for having a major impact on the local environment of the early Regalian Kingdom, as well as living on in various symbolisms and family crests. Throughout the years before their assumed extinction, the Dragons had frequent contact with the early Regalian Humans, and as such, several theories and folk lore stories continue to thrive, particularly in Anglia and Drixagh. |

| Threnlak | Threnlaks are like something out of an Alorian myth but made horribly real in Muird’s forests. Unknown for much of history due to their seclusive hunting habits, their discovery was a chilling event as a party of hunters unmasked the killers. As nocturnal reptilian hunters, they have the ability to shift their body color to fit themselves against tree trunks as they rest or lay in wait. Today, Threnlaks remain horrors most travelers hate to face. |

| Medskala | Feared as a merciless killer, and told of in the oral tales and stories of Nordskagian people, the Medskala is a slithering predator from the Kingdom of Nordskag. Although similar in more ways than one to their serpentine cousins, these snakes are much bigger, more dangerous, and extremely cunning. The Medskala is reputed throughout Nordskag and generally given a wide berth by Nordskagians out of fear of being consumed. |

| Ghoten | Ghoten are curious creatures and additionally, prime examples in the benefit of breeding. These furred reptiles are often loyal pets to the merchants and travelers of Muird. In the past, they served as an obstacle in the swamps across the continent before the Tarchlann people domesticated them. While some rare members of their species remain in the wild in their large sizes, the Ghoten overall retain a small size bred into them by the Muird natives. Today, they stand as polar opposites as one breed is a calm, loving pet while the other is a fierce predator. |

| Ghor Ka Bloodscale | In the eyes of many, Ghor Ka Bloodscales are odd creatures. These curious creatures are thought to be the result of several failed Allar experiments that could not be eradicated by the alchemists and scientists who created them. A small reptile with red scales, the Ghor Ka Bloodscale is intelligent enough to converse with other members of their own species, have a primitive form of written communication, and even make crude weaponry. Though they are native to the jungles of Sendras, Hadar, and Teled Methen, Ghor Ka Bloodscales can often be found on pirate and slaver vessels due to their ability to make mutually beneficial pacts with sentient races such as the Allar, Slizzar, Tigran, and Altalar. |

| Hagaan | All throughout the deserts of Aloria, there are many dangers that worry travelers and merchants alike. Most worry about their camels dehydrating, or lack of food, but little does the common traveler ever think about the animals that lurk in the dark of the desert waiting for a victim. The Hagaan is one of the infamous reptiles to walk the deserts of Aloria, and it is feared by Qadir and Ailor alike for its deadly bite. |
---|
| Kelp | Cunning and deceitful, the Kelp of Aloria were only recently discovered in the colonial lands of New Ceardia. Prone to taking on magical guises, they are notorious for luring their victims to secluded places and killing them. They predominantly dwell in underwater caves, away from the outside world. Kelp are rare and fascinating, but a person should treat these creatures with the utmost care when in contact with them. |

Includes reptiles that possess many mammal-like traits.
Mammal-like Reptiles |

| Kyanprat | The unfortunate souls that stray too close to a swamp's edge often find themselves the meal of a Kyanprat. There are few beings, animal or otherwise, that pose any danger to this horrifying creature. Ranging between sixteen and eighteen feet tall with an odd mixture of reptilian and mammalian features, these swamp-dwelling beasts are a lethal sight to behold. |

| Yellow Water Dragon | The Yellow Water Dragons were the smallest Dragons ever witnessed in the world of Aloria. These elegant small Dragons often lived near the water, more notably around coastlines of Hadar and Sendras. The Yellow Water Dragons were strongly adored by the Slizzar and, to a lesser degree, the Allar. Much like the other Dragon species, the Yellow Water Dragons went extinct some time around 50 BC by some disease that struck them over the course of a decade. The Allar attempted to save the Yellow Water Dragons, though to little effect unfortunately. |

| Basilisk | Very few creatures are as vilified and dangerous as the great Basilisk. This colossal serpent, known as the Great King of Snakes, patrols the stone forests of Llíü’raëth searching for rare metals, treasure, or prey to feast upon. Though its origins are unknown, many attribute the Basilisk to be a final descendent of the Green Dragons that occupied Hyarroc thousands of years ago. The Basilisk lives in a massive sinkhole called The Maw, thought to be a burial site of the snake’s ancestors. Today, the ancient serpent wanders the stone forest, exerts control over the Stone Forest Snakes, and is considered to be one of the most deadly monsters in Aloria. |

| Visrenn | The only marine predator on Muird, Visrenn are commonly found in rivers across the continent. Originally confused as lake serpents by the population, they have since been identified as a disgusting yet unique predator. They waving a thin, wispy tail covered in small paddles to appear like an aquatic plant before ejecting a thick mucus out of their bodies and mouth to both clog the entryway to their lairs and their prey’s gills. They are not the most conventional predator, but are still effective nonetheless. |

| Grashobaig | The Grashobaig is a large snail found near and around the border between Hyarroc and Daendroc. Normally the size of a horse, these slow and docile creatures are seemingly harmless, though their defense mechanism holds a dark and dangerous threat to any who approach with intention of harm. While they grow at fast rates and breed regularly, their numbers are dwindling in the Dark Iron Tribelands and Blood Clan Tribelands due to hunting from Orcs who seek to best one of the grand gastropods as a challenge of skill. |

| Haurmann | If there ever was a creature that deserved to die, it would be the Haurmann. Haurmann have no purpose in life other than to eat and annoy whomever they cross paths with. They resemble small walking eggs with horrific, almost balloon-like features on their faces, eyes that look like they could fall out of their sockets and crooked teeth that make one wonder how they can even consume anything. Haurmann are frequently the butt joke of comedy shows, and some particularly unentertaining bars or cafes have one behind the bar for cheap entertainment. |

| Nenya | Subject of many tales, myths, urban legends, and even religious fanaticism, the Nenya are an extinct species of sentient trees. These great Magus mysteries were thought to be taller than most Regalian buildings, and capable of walking—and even talking—with others. The Nenya have played an important role in Nelfin history; they are thought to have preceded the Elven Empire, and to have been magical emissaries of Estel herself. Unfortunately, the Nenya haven’t been seen since before the Cataclysm; during the Night of the Fallen Star, the Shendar ensured that the few remaining emissaries were driven into hiding, or further eradicated. |
