Grolagians – Animals that looked like rabbits but had small, round ears and tall, thin legs. They looked like rabbits because of their eyes, noses, and long frontal teeth, but everything else was strange. Several people appreciate them because of their tasty, tender meat. Most Demis like to eat them raw, but Oomans prefer to cook them a little. Not too much, or the meat would lose most of its flavour, so that was why it was served in thin fillets in many places. Despite looking like big rabbits with long legs, they were absurdly fast and very hard to hunt. Their pelts had high demand because of the warm clothing that could be made from them.

They are powerful, scary-looking draft horses with smooth, backwards-curving horns on their foreheads. The hard plates that cover their bodies can be used to make shields.

They have two legs and long tails, which they use to change the direction of their flight like a ship’s rudder, and their teeth have venom. Drakes are very intelligent, even more so than Bone Boars, and they are extremely tough to kill because of their raw strength and hardened scales. They have six or ten-metre-long bodies, and the tail is half that size. Their wingspan is double their length. They can fold their wings by the middle and keep them close to the sides of their bodies so that they can use their front paws to grab things like cutting down trees, carving wood to make sculptures, and all sorts of things. Some of them work on construction sites, making houses or helping build ships, and there are even some who work on farms, preparing fields or harvesting them.
