Creatures
There are many creatures throughout Yliakum, in here you will find information on both ferocious (and not so ferocious) creatures as well as rogues and other vile characters.
Wild Animals
Rarely are wild animals found in large cities except for rats which come and infest the sewers and cellars. These animals are often the best for people seeking to train since they range from simple creatures such as rats to extremely powerful monsters such as ulbernauts. Because of this, some creatures have been brought to the Hydlaa Arena so that various people can fight them without having to look for them.
Arangma
Forest Arangma
|
| Appearance: Green, very green, to blend in with its suroundings. |
| Strength: Due to their brittle forms, Forest Arangmas are fairly easy to defeat. |
| Natural Habitat: Wooded Areas and Forests. |
Frost Arangma
|
| Appearance: The carapace is purple with large green spots, the legs are blue. |
| Strength: Due to their brittle forms, Frost Arangmas are fairly easy to defeat. Mages beware, however. Due to it's predilection for the cold, attempting to freeze this creature to death is unlikely to work. |
| Natural Habitat: Cold and Dark places. |
Weaver Arangma
|
| Appearance: Purple body, with turquoise-blue legs and a vivid yellow and red marking on the carapace. |
| Strength: Due to their brittle exo-skeletal structure, weaver arangmas are fairly easy to defeat. However their shell is tougher than a forest arangma's. |

Vesper Arangma
|
| Appearance: Almost completely purple, save for some green and blue spots on the carapace. |
| Strength: Due to their brittle exo-skeletal structure, vesper arangmas are fairly easy to defeat. However, it should be noted that it possess some magical resistance. |

Sand Arangma
|
| Appearance: Almost completely black, with some yellow details on their abdomen. |
| Strength: Sand Arangmas have a strong exo-esqueletal armor, while they tend to be a bit resistant to spells. The explorer must be wary about those bugs, as Sand Arangmas are one of the stronger arangmas in Yliakum. |
| Natural Habitat: Sand dunes like the ones outside Eagle Bronze Doors. |

Domesticated Animals
Domesticated animals are creatures which have been adapted to work or to just provide company. Of the latter, the most common species are the Groffel and the Yulbar. However, there are some people who might want a clacker for a pet. Animals like the Pterosaur, the Goujah and the Megaras aren't often kept as pets, but as working beasts as they are quite practical.
