Bobble
A small, squishy little jellyfish-like creature that floats in currentless bodies of water. It has an air sac on top of a small plate-like middle section. Below the water it extends thin glowing strands that have a dull paralysis poison that is only strong enough to stun small fish or other aquatic creatures. The strands also serve as a deterrent to larger aquatic predators, and it has a foul bitter taste to dissuade land predators. It is also odorless. They give off a slight glow at night, and the bubble on top retracts into the plate section when it is touched.
Brackin
An insect-like creature that has 10 legs. It has a flat body and two little antennae-like eyes, a mouth on its underside, and a long pointy tail that does not have much mobility. It has a segmented body that has a hard exoskeleton carapace. It is an herbivore and practically harmless. It's main form of defense is the very leaf-like mold on its upper carapace. It often has a small flower growing out of the center. When threatened it will hold completely still, no matter how much it is pestered.
Light bugs (need name)
Small Firefly-like bugs that are attracted to the jingling sound of small bells, can be a light source if you trap some in a lantern that has bells in it. Can open lantern and let them out if you have bells on a string.
Fylerius
A very unique and mesmerising plant that goes through multiple cycles. When it grows, it sprouts straight up from the root as a stem. The stem then recedes a bit at the top, and another smaller, more complex stem with thousands of tiny seeds stuck to it grows out. This intricate smaller stem then expands outward to form a sticky membrane “orb” of sorts, which will allow the seeds to be either blown away, or picked up by the local fauna and transported. After a few days, the orb dissipates and the Fylerius flower buds from the original stem. It’s said to be one of the most beautiful flowers on Yvitril. It only blooms for a single day, and then wilts and the cycle restarts.

Skin-Flayer (needs full name)
An incredibly carnivorous, dangerous and feared plant that grows in the plains of Elsavas. It’s rare, but it has a huge reputation. It’s a large plant, with the center being roughly the size of a small human child. The center of the plant is a “mouth” of sorts, which opens and closes. Connected to, and extending from the mouth center of the plant are several (up to 10) long and winding tentacles. These tentacles have thousands of tiny barb-wire “hairs” on each that hook pray, and the name Skin-Flayer comes from the plant’s incredibly quick reaction time to something being caught on its barbed tentacles. As soon as an animal gets stuck to one of the tentacles, it retracts them all at blinding speeds and a lot of the time it rips the skin clean off of whatever it catches. If a human were to grab onto one of the tentacles, or step on one with a bare foot, they could easily lose the skin that made contact and sometimes more.

Embers in the Ash
Four ordinary young people from four corners of the Earth wake up on a hill in another world. Here, their very presence is a crime against the Gods. On the fringes of civilization, life is often brief and always violent, but in the Empire's Heartland, implacable hunters seek to rectify their blasphemous existence with Blade and Fire. To return home, they will need to adapt to a place where their life will be earned in steel. But what will they be ready to sacrifice for their goal? Will their flame flicker out like so many others before them? Or will they thrive as Embers in the Ash? Hello, and welcome to my first fiction on this site! Embers in the Ash is an epic fantasy adventure story that aims to span quite a few chapters (I hope!). To set expectations, this isn't going to be a LitRPG or power fantasy-style story. I'm aiming for a fairly grounded story set in a fairly high-fantasy world. I hope you enjoy it! For this first month of publication, my aim is to give you, the reader, something to really bite into. I will be releasing a chapter every day at 9:15 AM EST (13:15 GMT), as well as the occasional double chapter (which will always be announced by a post-chapter author blurb). Check in fifteen minutes after the first chapter's release! After this first month of publication, the aim is to go for either a weekly or bi-weekly release schedule, depending on the sort of time I can reliably dedicate to writing. Either way, settle in for the long haul, and welcome to the story!
