Pergrumpkt


The Pergrumpkts are a race of short, waddling creatures, which are descended from forest dwelling mammals. They live in loosely organized, clan-like groups, and primarily make their homes in deep warrens and burrows which can extend for miles beneath the forest floors of their home planets.

Trojleen


Trojleens began as an offshoot of simple forest gnomes who came into contact with a strange meteorite which crashed into their secluded village. The strange energies from the extraterrestrial rock mutated the poor gnomes into a terrible, demented state. Despite their apparent mindlessness, Trojleens still main a modicum of an organized life, living in villages, protecting young, etc. They will fearlessly attack any creature which enters their territory, and have been known to gang up and tackle those many times their size.

Kpskiet

Kipkiets are slow moving, spiky beetle-like creatures which live in deep forests. They tend to dwell along the heavily shaded forest floor, where the creatures root through the detritus and top soil for small prey. When threatened Kipkiets withdraw into their shells in behavior similar to turtles.

Mossmite

Mossmite are creatures which have adapted a shaggy, moss-like fur covering which acts as a camouflage. They generally live in swampy or forested environments that have access to large water sources. Mossmites cannot go too long away from water as they can quickly dehydrate.

Terminia Muscipula


A large, semi-mobile carnivorous plant native to South America. The Termina Muscipula begins life as a spore which attaches to an adult tree. Over the next few years the spore grows quickly, consumes and displaces the top portion of the tree and uses it's bottom root system for it's own nutrient gathering purposes. It then develops a complicated system of thorny vines which catch small rodents, birds, and other animals to supplement this process. These vines also give the plant a degree of locomotion. The Termina Muscipula has been observed fleeing the area of a forest fire.

Treent


Treents are anthropomorphic, walking trees that live deep in ancient forests around the world. They tend to have the characteristics of the dominant tree of the forest they live in (Spruce, Maple, Redwood, etc.) and thus come in all different shapes and sizes. They are slow moving, highly protective of their territory, and extremely leery of outsiders. They will often attack loggers, lumberjacks, hikers, or other intruders without provocation.
