Below are a minuscule amount of the different species of creatures that live on Alturas. They are sorted in alphabetical order according to their classification, and contain a short description, where on Alturas they may be found, as well as other fun facts. Civilized creatures, such as dragons, humans, and some horses, are capable of creating complex societies and show strong innovation and creativity. Mundane animals are like the animals on Earth, capable of a certain level of creativity, but primarily run on basic instincts. Some types of creatures, such as horses and foxes, are capable of being both mundane or civilized (although mundane and civilized creatures cannot interbreed), while some are either only civilized (e.g. unicorns) or only mundane (e.g. fish). Fey are intelligent creatures who are capable of creating their own complex societies, but feel no compassion and are unable to invent. Due to the complexity of the Fey, they are separated into three sub-categories.
This bestiary is split into several sections based on the classifications of the creatures:
Unless there is an active link, all of these pages are coming soon. Even if there is an active link, there may not be a painting representing the creature yet. This is a very large undertaking. ~ Katie
