Ghorapines

Ghorapines are large predatory mammals which hunt in forests and grasslands. They are the result of a mad wizard's experiments, the combination of a rabbit, wolf, rat, and demon. The resulting creatures hunt in packs, live underground in warrens, breed excessively, and are highly dangerous. Several organized campaigns to eradicate the creatures once and for all have all thus failed.

Xaxxaxcaxa do not believe in any form of subtlety or tact, and instead tend to shout all verbal communications at the top of one's lungs. Many businesses such as restaurants will isolate Howlwers into their own sections, if they choose to serve them at all.

They have developed a thick chitinous outer shell which allows them to exist immersed in liquid magma for short periods of time. The creatures feed by absorbing bacteria with their fleshy "leaves." Colonies of Lava Tubers usually attach themselves to the walls of volcanoes and only swim in the magma when they reach the adult stage.

Larry the comic book monster

Larry is a monster, and like all good monsters he spent his time creeping up on children and scaring them from their closets or under their beds, and occasionally eating people or terrorizing teenage campers at abandoned summer camps. Being a terrible engine of destruction is hard work, and in his heart Larry always knew he wasn't cut out for it. Larry however always had a dream, to one day abandon the whole "hideous monster" gig and become a comic book artist.

Larry's monster friends laughed at his wild ambition. "You are a monster, Larry. Monsters are SUPPOSED to scare children, eat teenagers, bite the heads off of chickens, rampage through orphanages, and other assorted nasty things." Larry however was undaunted. He began to post his work online, and after a few years gained some recognition through sites like Deviantart. Eventually Larry began to self-publish and sell his work online and through 'cons. To Larry's great surprise his comics only sold more when people found out he really was a towering hideous creature Hell bent on destruction - at least that's the image his agent told him to cultivate. In real life Larry likes kittens.

A highly advanced system of caves and catacombs have been discovered, in which it's believed the Andromniotes live in a hierarchical society. Further study is lacking however due to the fact that the creatures do not take kindly to trespassers, and will harass and or otherwise attempt to drive them from the island.
