The Cor

Submitted by Lyanna Legend

#winged #horns #tameable #hybrid

Young Cor stand an average of 1 foot tall, mature at an average of 2 feet tall

Cor are skinned in a soft and very short fur, pink in color, hue varies

Eyes are usually unnaturally large and silver or grey in color, no pupil

Mouths are small, but make it easy for them to consume their omnivorous diet

Car had very small and soft keratin claws on all four appendages

Small, white feathered wings do not provide flight

Are usually slow, but have shown very quick movement when startled

Cor will weigh about 5 pounds at max

Most will reach death by the age of 22

Cor really have no specialized abilities with the exception of telepathy.

This telepathy is something they do not use often, and mostly only with their handler.

They can either walk on two legs or all four, but their wings are, most of the time, useless.

They often waddle, but with a quickness.

Cor are very stealthy, often hiding in combat or in tense situations.

There have been VERY rare instances where a Cor will attempt to defend their handler.

Unfortunately, Cor are soft and oblivious, making them almost too easy to capture after being tamed.

Tamed Cor tend to escape their twentieth year of life to mate and return to the land in Tranquillum.

Tranquillum appears to be the only place to find these creatures, unless tamed.

Cor are extremely loyal to one handler, even if given as a gift during their first year.

The Unicorn

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#horse #unicorn #tameable #magical #mount #telepathic

Unicorns are closely related to the horse.

Foals are usually around three feet in height at the head while

adults can reach nearly ten feet with the exception of the horn.

Speaking of, not only do unicorns vary in natural colors,

but their 'corns' tend to take on a random rainbow of unnatural ones.

Unicorns tend to give birth in twins, but only once per lifetime.

These mystical beasts are fairly rare, but do live a healthy three

hundred years given proper care.

As stated before, unicorns are rare, unlike their horse cousins.

These animals are friendly for the most part, but very difficult to tame and create a bond.

Bonds, once made, are life long. If you choose a unicorn, be prepared for a lifelong partner.

Unicorns seem to have much more stamina and brute strength compared to other, similar species.

Depending on the color of their horn, these beasts can have an affinity for magical use with their

horn being their 'wand'.

For example: Blue horns can blast water in short bursts from their horns.

Not all unicorns have magical abilities, but all have a telepathic ability with their chosen

handler/bond partner.

Unicorns are incredibly smart and fluent in the common tongue (hence understanding the telepathic bond).

The Dragon

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#dragon #reptile #tameable #dangerous

They are big.

Big ass lizards.

Pretty colorful and shit.

Some have different abilities than others and some can fly.

Why are these a thing?

Damn Simul, you scurry.

BRO, WHY ARE THEY SO BIG?

Wasn't there a dude killing these things off? The soup guy?

But for real though, dragons are pretty fuckin' cool.

I've seen some of these fuckers spew more than just fire and it seems to coincide with their coloring and where they call home.

I personally wouldn't try to tame one, but I have seen a few in my time (Mostly the small ones).

I suppose I should take more notes on individual types...huh?

#aggressive #feline #intelligent #amazing companion

(Researchers Note- It took me forever to get this picture, my storm kitten max led me to this momma and her baby. I had to sit in the rain they created for two days before i snapped this beauty.)

Animal Name- Storm Kitten

Size- The storm kittens normal size is that of a kitten no more than three pounds. Their adult form is large enough to ride. ( More information on will be mentioned later. )

Estimated Maximum Age- Unknown. A few subjects have been documented living for more than one hundred years. Historical records have noted a few Storm Kittens have no age and are still wandering around thousands of years later. Historical records are to be ignored due to their natural inaccuracies.

Lore- The Storm Kitten is an incredibly shy animal. Sightings of this animal are incredibly rare. Those that have seen the animal always mention its beauty. All that is known beyond that is its eating habits and basic personality.

Storm kittens love anything meat related. Those lucky enough to tame one find out the hard way. It often throws anything it does not like right back at its handler. The cats intelligence makes it easy to train if it wants to be.

subjects have been shown to learn the skills needed to be a rescue type companion. Their natural abilities make this type of work easy for them.

Power/Abilities- Not all of what storm kittens can do is known. they have been shown to use a variety of water, and lightning type attacks. Wild kittens have been known to make it storm when there are no clouds in the sky. It has been noted the potency of their magic heavily depends on the animals emotional state.

Extreme sadness or pain has shown to be the trigger needed for the animal to make it rain. Anger results in more powerful attacks in general. They also have access to a adult form. when activated the storm kittens grow in size. Their end size depends on their blood lines. Most Kittens only reach two hundred pounds in their adult form. A few subjects have been seen being larger than a horse.

Researchers Notes-Storms Kittens are amazing creatures. I have heard stories of them being able to survive the harshest environments. Their ferocity in battle is not the be underestimated even with their diminutive size. I have witnessed a kitten easily kill a man while at its normal size. While in its adult form i have seen their lightning attacks destroy boulders.

The power of their water abilities is amazing as well.

There are so many stories about them helping put out forest fires, or even filling wells for those nice enough to help them. Their intelligence is something you do not see from most animals. Its almost like they know what people are thinking. I have not noticed any telepathy being performed. They are smart enough to adapt to situations much like a human would.

That includes attempting to use tools to aid itself. My experience with these creatures has impacted my life in a good way. My companion Max is a handful to deal with everyday. i would not trade it for anything in the world.

The Phoenix

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#phoenix #bird #tamable #fire #reborn #rare

One of the largest breed of bird in Simul, phoenix birds are a rare sight.

Younglings weigh nearly 5 pounds after hatching, and fully grown can average over a ton.

The larger they grow, the more tail feathers they possess; upwards of ten massive feathers.

Mostly orange colored, they are all individually shades with hues of yellow and gold and red. Their song can be as calm as a windy summer night to as ear piercing as nails on a chalkboard followed by a sonic boom. Adult phoenix can lives upwards of 1500 years and give birth to two babies

per decade for the latter 1000.

Kindly Kettle Kin

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend (Name created by @Spook )

#tame #expensive #sentient #teapot #wealthy #magical

As much as this writer would like to claim these little teapots are not sentient beings, I have recently

been proven wrong. These tea brewers are not exactly common in shops, and they are

rather expensive, but they are extremely popular amongst the more wealthy.

The rumor is that Kindly Kettle Kin were created by a raving wizard who was trying to fill the void

of loneliness. Giving sentience to three kettles, his home was then filled with the child-like chuckles

these creatures emit. Now-a-days, Kindly Kettles have the intelligence of a teen, and the humor

to boot! No one is quite sure how they procreate, only that they wake with another in the troop.

Most people sell their unused Kettle Kin to shops who then sell to the next home. Well...most people

look at it more like adoption. Each kettle has its own name and personality and live an average of three hundred years before closing their eyes and their silver tarnishing for the last time.

Kettle Kin are ambulatory and self sufficient; able to brew tea on their own, given it is within reach.

They are not restricted to just tea! They can brew coffee as well, or just hot water for your soup. They

have the capability to fill themselves without the need of a sink or water source, and heat it as well.

Kettle Kin do not need sustenance as they take from what is left inside. Don't shelve them for too long!

Subriprio Sprites

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#tiny #small #cute #pest #dust

As cute as they may be, Subriprio Sprites are more a nuisance than anything else. Measuring about

a millimeter in diameter, they are also extremely difficult to see and catch. Subriprio's are essentially sentient dust bunnies. Given enough time and dirt, these sprites form from discarded dust hidden in the shadows of furniture and free floating magic/mana that has been forgotten.

Though they cannot reproduce amongst themselves, all it takes is a tad more dust for them to ingest

and produce asexually. Subriprio's also tend to cause damage to several types of materials, including, but not limited to:

-Cotton

-Latex

-Nylon

-Wool

These tiny little things are often found in not only dusty areas of your home, but tend to hide in the

darkest places, such as under furniture, behind shelves, in your walls, etc. The best ways to rid your

home of these tiny terrors would be to hire an exterminator, buy yourself a magically enhanced potion, or clean your home thoroughly and hope you've gotten all the little buggers.

Hail Hare

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#hare #rabbit #feathered #tame #social #bunny #flying #electric

The Hail Hare is a variant of Rabbit that is born with far more special attributes, making it highly sought among exotic pet keepers. Most of it's body is covered in feathers rather than fur, and eyes

that are made of some sort of crystal type material. This does not affect their near perfect eyesight or hearing. These rodent type animals are very tame, even in the wild. They are mostly herbivores

but have been known to eat poultry or fish if needed. Hail Hares are capable of sky-walking, giving the illusion of flight. They also have a defensive mechanism in the form shocking touch. If frightened and touched, it will feel similar to being shocked by someone in wools socks.

After seeing these creatures in the wild, I am convinced they were some deity's gift to the good people. Hail Hares are plentiful in forested and meadow like areas. They roam alongside their more mainstream brethren, and some cross-breeding is expected. They are far less skittish; easily coming up to humanoids. They are also a fairly common house-pet. Most are indoor-outdoor and easily potty trained. I've noted that they grow and socialize very closely to the basic rabbit or hare, and hold the same body mass. Though they are usually used as pets, Hail hares have been known to be marketed for their meat as well. They are fairly inexpensive as either. These animals are also above average in intelligence, able to learn most commands, much like a dog. They are very sociable, needing more than one in a single home in order to obtain a healthy state.

Floral Fox

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#fox #floral #flower #pastel #tamable #hunted #valueable

Floral Foxes are one of the most coveted creatures in Simul. Not because they are particularly rare, but they are particularly beautiful. These foxes can live up to 45 years and females can produce 13

offspring in a lifetime. They average about 30 lbs. fully grown and measure around 40 cm at the

shoulder while also being approximately 100 cm long. Most the length comes from the tails. Floral foxes are not INCREDIBLY rare, given most of them are wild and not hunted for food, but their fur

is highly sought for clothing material. These canines are usually very mild in manner and will avoid

most humanoids, however, they can be tamed as a house pet. This is extremely hard to do as they are not very trusting. Upon reading more into the studies done of this mythical creatures, I have come to find that they do harness some magical abilities. Not all do, but about 20% of the adult population is capable of some sort of nature magic. It has been observed that tame Floral Foxes, given enough time in an area, can help organic matter heal and grow with fervor. Another small note: They can also grow certain flowers from their skull which tend to hang around their faces like a crown.

The Fairy/Fae

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#fairy #fae #small #flight #flying #humanoid #magical

The fair/fae type of creature is more than just a creature. For the sake of transparency, these types of creatures are also heavily written about as they are a type that is also a race

Native to Simul. Fae have many different variants that I will note about later, more in depth. Most fae are equipped with a set of wings that are usually similar to flying insects. Such as butterflies, ladybugs, moths, etc. Some have wings akin to animals, small breed of course. Most faes also have an affinity to magic. Most seem to use mana. With an average lifespan of 1000 years, most child

child bearing fae can produce near 5 children per decade.

(Researchers Note- The ink Fairies were all to happy to pose for these pictures.)

Name- Ink Fairies

Personality- These beings are never in a foul mood. Their excitement and happiness is infectious. They are tidy and hate when things are disorganized. If they are not playing pranks on people, or chilling in their inkpot they are cleaning. 

Size- These creatures never grow larger than six inches tall. Their wingspan can be as large as twice their size

Appearance- These fairies are often colored in whatever ink they choose to inhabit. If they have not chosen an ink they are pure white with pink eyes. 

Threat Level- No-Threat

Estimated Maximum Age- These fairies are immortal as long as they choose an ink to inhabit. If they never choose an ink their life expectancy is five years.   

Lore-  All the lore that surrounds these wonderful beings has to do with their abilities. A few scholars speculate how these strange fairies came into being.  The prevailing theory is they were the byproduct of a spell gone wrong.

Power/Abilities-  Ink Fairies only have three abilities that make them incredibly useful if you have a lot of paperwork to read, or write. Their first ability is to know what is written down on paper within the room they call home. This can be blocked easily enough in a variety of ways.

 Their second ability is to transfer whatever they have read to their masters. All they have to do is spit an ink-like substance into someone's eyes. Once the substance is absorbed through the eyes the receiver knows everything the faerie knows. 

Their final ability is to produce an infinite amount of whatever ink they inhabit.

Researchers Notes- I absolutely love these fairies. They save me so much time when doing all my paperwork. Their organizational skills are top notch as well. Once you get used to it you can find anything easily. Talking with them shows just how much they love life, nothing ever seems to shake them no matter how bad things are. Their love of pranks, and harmless mischief has caused many a prank war with anyone that has had the pleasure of interacting with them. I know they are strange but I think that is what makes them so incredible. I have actually spoken to the very first Ink Sprite, she is a delightful soul. No matter how much I ask she will never tell me how her people came into being. It is the only thing she will not tell me. 

#supernatural #gentle #humanoid

( subject of this document agreed to pose for this photo) Name- Screech

Personality- Screech is a quiet and gentle being, he just does his job and tries to stay out of the affairs of the living. Bad things tend to happen if he doesnt.

Size- 4'0"

Appearance-(See Photo)

Threat Level- Special Circumstance ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-6UrAUIAzk6g1XVR08ZNzHp-cRcFrUQWBuWMlQqclfQ/edit?usp=sharing

Lore- Screech is one of many being through the realms that help smooth the transition for the dead into the afterlife. His race is known by many names, the most popular are grim reapers. The shepards of the dead. Screeches job in simul is to quietly guide souls where they need to be. the place happens to be Soulstagne in Simul. It is an easy trip leaving which suits screech just fine. Occasionally he has to travel other realms. If he is doing his job everything is fine.

Its when he is not doing his job that has his kind labeled as Special Circumstance. If any reaper fails to do their job things can become cataclysmic. If even one soul escapes its fate it will start a chain reaction of survivors that require reapers to get creative. This often manifests in those that survive incredible odds to start dying in random horrible ways in a pattern. Reapers keep the balance of souls no matter what.

Powers/Abilities- It is hard to pin down just how power these beings are, they are beyond the scope of what most can comprehend. the only powers i have observed are perfect invisibility and intangibility. Its like they dont exist in anyworld yet they can influence the material plane with great ease. Screech is a nice enough subject but i am afraid to learn more of what they can do.

Researchers Notes-Screech only agreed to let me study him for a week while i was in a coma, I followed him on his daily routine and tried to remember as much as i can. He and the other reapers were quite friendly do me. they love a good joke and often let souls they like stick around longer to say goodbye to loved ones or watch their own funerals. which i always thought was weird but whatever. It didnt matter who they ushered into the after life they treated every "customer" as they called them with respect. No matter the religion they spoke them like a priest in whatever god their customers followed. they make death feel less final and alone, I would like to see screech and his friends again. Just not before i live a few more decades and die of natural causes.

Med Caps

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#mushroom #medicinal #adorable #fungus #healing #medicinal

When I first heard of these tiny little creatures and what they were used for, I almost didn't believe it.

I had to find some and see for myself. These sentient, quadrupedal mushrooms are named as such due to those who use them trying to separate feeling from FEELING, if you catch my drift. Med Caps

are a creature found in various, dense forests throughout Simul. Fairly common, they are also slow and easy to capture. These creatures are used in a variety of healing potions, salves, and dressings as their 'juice' is a natural remedy for many different ailments. As much as I would like to find the sick

mind who first thought to dry, crush and bleed these adorable little things, I do have to admit how

amazing their medicinal quality is. Growing no larger than one's thumbpad, they live in large groups

and tend to stick to more moist environments. Extremely commonly used in medicines, you'll be hard

pressed to find a selection of healing that DOESN'T involve Med Caps.

The Dinosaur

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#dinosaur #dino #overview #lizard #scale

Dinosaurs are some of the largest land and sea creatures known to Simul. Coming in various types, some can easily be mistaken for dragons or run-of-the-mill lizards in size by comparison.

Dinosaurs lay eggs as their form of breeding. Depending on the type, they may be docile or violently feral. I will document as I find and study these very fascinating creatures. You are more likely to find texts on these animals than you are to find them roaming about the land.

The Marmor

Submitted by @Lyanna Legend

#aggressive #humanoid #stonelike #rare

The first instance of these 'creatures' dates back to the recorded year 2254.

The Marmor were named after a root language meaning 'stone', mostly because of their stone like

attributes. Mostly their skin as it is hard as diamonds, but it has been said and shared that some of

them can create small digits as sharp as obsidian. These creatures are more humanoid in appearance, but have the mannerism of a feral mammal, akin to large cat species. Skittish, stealthy, fast and aggressive. Though rare, it would not be a surprise to find one or two among larger cities attempting to live a more humanoid type lifestyle. They do have the capacity to learn basic skills and communication. The Marmor tend to live near large bodies of water as their skin can dry out easily, causing issues with motion and illness. It is not well known how long these beings live, nor how they procreate, but it is rumored they do have the 'abilities' that normal humans do. Due to their high aggressiveness, it is common practice to avoid these creatures.
