Talbec Wildlife

Talbec Wolves:
These wolves were amphibious, living both on land and in water. They were unique to Talbec and are now classified as extinct.

Characteristics:


 * wet, slimey skin
 * strong jaws
 * whip-like barbed tails
 * webbed claws and forearms
 * yellow eyes

''Talbec wolves hunted in packs and used their surroundings like marsh grass or pluff mud as cover. They could completely “melt” into patches of mud, making them a very dangerous predator. Their size could range from 3-6 ft tall. They were very territorial, often fighting with opposing packs for better hunting grounds -- there was a sort of hierarchy among them, the largest automatically classified as "alphas" and the smallest "omegas." A large pack made up completely of alpha wolves infamously roamed the largest swath of swamp on the planet, which Phoenix Squadron ran into during part two of the Talbec Campaign.''

Xiloon (Zyloon):
Gigantic gator-like creatures that are able to grow a literal habitat on it's back. The plants and trees that develop vary depending on where they reside. After the destruction of Talbec, all Xiloons were killed except for Sock, leaving him the last of his species.

Characteristics:


 * mossy backs
 * thick skin
 * varies in colors that blend into their environment
 * stony spines covered in grass or something of the sort

''Over the course of hundreds of years, this species grew larger and larger to adapt to its surroundings. They are peaceful creatures but if deadly if disturbed. Xiloons can range in size, with the oldest being the most massive -- females also tend to be bigger than males.''
