Description Decorated a few pages in my sketchbook. Featuring unicorns (perissodactyls closer related to rhinos than to horses that are native to Faluria and endangered thanks to hunting for horns), griffins (large flying relatives of goblins), lung (large amphibians living in lakes and rivers, some species in oceans, one species in deserts), skrzaki (another flying goblin relative, except those are smaller sophonts, courtesy of ), manticores (omnivorous gelada relatives with barbs on the tail tip), quilin (a Kushurian pronghorn antelope with a scale-like fur pattern) and wyverns (flying imp relatives with toxic saliva they use to coat their tail barbs with).

do griffins have proper feathers but their relatives have membranes? also that is the best quillin I seen , a simple and plausible solution

There are several larger goblinoid groups, the griffins and other feather-winged taxa belonging to a different one than the membrane-winged, both of them developing flight adaptations separately. And thanks, but i haven't really seen any other speculative quilin interpretations yet.

Oh holy shit, I wasn't expecting this. They look cool as hell dude, are the wings coming from a panda / yi qi style fake digit?

Yep, an extended, movable carpal bone. Griffins have the same, otherwise they wouldn't be able to fold their wings like that.

Is Julius' species related to the lung? Because I'm squeeing internally just thinking about him as a li'l tentacly tadpole. Also, wyverns are majestic, and I'm glad someone's using baboons (well, relatives) as something at least as ferocious.

Julius is completely separate from this setting and since the referenced animals were cuttlefish, slugs and geckos, there isn't any extreme ontogenetic changes, but the idea is pretty funny.

Ah I see. Wait, slugs? What did he inherit from them?

The seams on the side are part slug, part cuttlefish, the antennae are from nudibranchs, and him being a hermaphrodite with a frilly bluish-white leopard slug wiener.

I wonder, what would an indrik look like - a massive indricothere or mammoth analogue, I take it?

Exaggerated accounts of whooly rhinos, which are not extinct in this setting.
