Fantastic Beasts

#### General Overview

Fantastic Beasts are magical creatures with incredible powers beyond the lengths of a spell. These powers typically come in the form of physical manifestations, as a part of the beast themselves or something summoned by the beast. *Several magic cores are made from Fantastic Beasts.*

There are three (4) general classifications of Fantastic Beasts: *Figura*, which have transfiguration abilities that allow them to alter their form in some manner. *Potentia*, which can perform magical actions beyond the standard magical ability. *Viribus*, which have an incredible amount of strength and are typically great in size. *Peculiaris*, which do not have magic abilities, but are unlike common beasts that roam the world. *Some Fantastic Beasts can fit into more than one classification, and there are even a few which are so fantastic that they have their own classification.*

## Figura

### *Fenyx*

*Their form is like that of a carnivorous bird, but with feathers resembling the flames that they were born from. The exact origin of the Fenyx is unknown, and often varies depending on the culture in which the tale comes from, but there is one constant that remains the same throughout all of them: their immortality.*

### *Gnuzzle*

*They are an aquatic avian species with sleek, grey feathers and beady, red eyes; commonly known for their ability to "evaporate" when they come into contact with water.*

### *Hælefel*

*Their base form is identical to a feral black cat, except for the sets of small horns that grow on their heads. Despite their size, this creature is typically found solo in the wilds, but can sometimes be part of a group of three (3) or four (4). One important feature about Hælefel to be cautious of is their venomous bite and affinity for sources of magic.*

### *Hollix*

*They are creatures composed of two things; magic and gold. They have the ability to shapeshift into any creature they know about, including incredible creatures such as dragons and phoenixes. However, their base form is rather underwhelming; cat-like with silky white fur, painted underbellies, pixie-like wings, feathered tail tips and primary-colored paw-pads.*

### *Salamaender*

*They are reptiles with red or orange scales and flashy frills that ignite into sparks; which can then allow the salamaenders to set the rest of their bodies on fire.*

## Potentia

### *Haeryx*

*They are creatures composed of magic and gold - though they take on rather varied forms. These creatures are born into a form that mimics the body of any other living person, meaning they could appear as anything from a canine, to a feline, to lizardfolk, to an avian. Most notably, the Haeryx is known for its magical capability of mind control, in which its power and strength typically grows with age.*

### *Pixie*

*They are small mythical creatures with cheeky magical capabilities; typically only one (1) foot (0.3m) in height, they have pointy ears, clothes made of rags and pointy hats. Rooted in their bones lies a source of magic that gives pixies various magical abilities, each special to the individual pixie.*

### *Zouwu*

*They are a monstrously large, elephant-sized feline creature with a striped body, scraggly mane, four fangs that curl out of its mouth, long sharp claws, and a disproportionately long, ruffled multi-colored tail. The Zouwu is also known for its incredible speed, capable of traveling 1,000 miles in a single day.*

## Viribus

### *Dragon*

*A Dragon is a fantastic beast that is no longer typically found in the world of Nectar. They are incredible creatures with a physical scale unmatched by most other magical beasts; their form is like that of a monstrous reptile--with tough scales layered over their skin, horns protruding from their skulls, spikes laced down their backs and their tails, claws as sharp as a kingsman's sword, and killer teeth that could pierce nearly anything they bite into.*

## Peculiaris

### *Al'corntus*

*They tend to roam together, working to take down prey much larger than the group combined while often pretending to be regular rabbits in an attempt to look like easy prey. Instead of being anything remotely close to prey, however, they're notable for being* incredibly *bloodthirsty.*

### *Hippocampus*

*They are commonly described as "a hybrid between an equestrian and a sea creature," like that of a literal seahorse. The hippocampus typically has three different colors of scales: green, blue and purple - but their eyes are nearly always glowing gold.*

### *Snizzle*

*They are mammals with silver fur, pointy snouts, sticky hands and a small pouch; they are typically described as "a greedy hybrid between a mole and an otter," despite the fact they are not aquatic. Snizzles do, however, commonly burrow, as they have a greedy tendency to steal shiny things and hide them away when they won't fit in their pouch.*
