Epilogues/Faunus Mortas

The Faunus Mortas: Extinct Creatures of Avalar was a book written by the Avalarian human Basil the Explorer in which he wrote about the pre-historic, long-extinct creatures that used to inhabit the realms of his world.
This book was included in the epilogues that can be viewed after the main storyline of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!
== Creatures ==
*Guardus Fioritum - A beige skinned muscular enemy wearing a turban and white shorts, tattoos, and brandishing a scimitar. Used to reside in Scorch.
*Catabatus - A pink cat-like enemy with green eyes, and long purple ears/wings with yellow streaks on them. Used to reside in Skelos Badlands until they evolved into Catbats.
*Farmae Robotum - A robot enemy wielding a shovel. Used to reside in Robotica Farms.
*Druidus Schnikum - A druid-like enemy with white skin and a purple robe, it also appears to be holding some kind of scepter. Used to reside in Fracture Hills.
*Varmintum - A rodent-like enemy hiding inside a trashcan. Its signature attack is throwing garbage. Used to reside in Metropolis.
*Lizardum Fat Slobae - A large light-green lizard with big dopey brown eyes and wielding a large club. Used to reside in Glimmer until they evolved into the Brown Lizards. They were big dumb lizards using a club as their mean of attack.
*Mister Fistus - A light green devil/troll-like enemy with a giant fist which appears to be made out of stone. Used to reside in Fracture Hills and Magma Cone until they evolved into Earthshapers.
*Armapillow - An angry blue armadillo-like pillow-creature with a pink belly as well as a pink horn. Used to reside in Mystic Marsh.

== Trivia ==
* The Faunus Mortas, like the rest of the epilogues, was not included in Spyro Reignited Trilogy.
*As these appear to be near game ready models that don't appear elsewhere in the game; it's very likely that these are scrapped enemies or NPCs that were nearly finished before being scrapped.
**Perhaps, for example; the Farmae Robotum could have been an intended enemy version of the Robot Farmers from Robotica Farms for the Metropolis level, which ended up replaced by one of the cow or pig enemies.
**However; any statement beyond "these look like game-ready models that weren't used in the base game" is speculation.
* In the ending cutscene of Crush's Dungeon after defeating Crush in Ripto's Rage!, Spyro calls Ripto "a wuss" as he leaves. It is unknown whether this is just usage of the word "wuss", roughly meaning "pathetic" or "weak", or if this is also a reference to the creature.
** In the case of the latter, the Wuss may be found in more worlds than just Avalar.
