Animals
*These are some of the creatures that populate the world of Zuria.

• Dragons - They are an intelligent, sentient species. If you want to ride one, you have to gain its trust first. They must agree to be in a partnership with you. It must be mutual. However, you can attempt to steal a dragon egg, or try to capture a baby dragon, but be prepared to face a group of angry dragons!
• Gryphons - Noble creatures with the head of an owl, wings of an eagle, and the body of a lion with large thick claws. They are currently being used as mounts for the Air Elementals.
• Cats & Dogs - They're house pets and companions
• Antecas - A large deer-like creature with a large pair of thorn-like antlers. Its fur is purple with light blue spots and its hooves are black as coal with a sharp spike on the back of each lower leg. Its eyes are a solid neon yellow. It's a herbivore, but is aggressive. It can run very fast and leap small rivers. The thorns on its antlers are poisonous. This animal is a common sight in forests and is hunted for their hide, horns, hooves, and meat. Can be tamed to be a mount. Getting kicked with its hooves will make bones break.
• General wildlife - Wolves, deer, elk, boars, and other various creatures you'd commonly find in the wild.
• Uvin - Magistic and agile horse-like species. They have slightly more muscular legs than a regular horse, which allows them to run at 70mph, and jump at the max height of 6 feet. Their average height is 6.5ft. They were once hunted for their delicious meat to near extinction. Many people are fooled by it’s horse-like appearance. However, they have sharp teeth and eat meat.
• Nugsin - A large mole-like creature that is able to dig through the earth at 15mph. It can be tamed and ridden using a covered saddle to help protect the rider while it is tunneling. It has large front claws that help it to dig.
• Iziret - Large snow owl-like birds with four wings (two on each side). Because they have two wings on each side of their body, they can fly faster than the average owl. They have small antlers and one-inch claws at the end of each feather on their wings and tail feathers. Large enough to ride with a saddle.
• Waringo - A furry, bulky framed, medium sized, quadruped animal with two fluffy tails and three horns on its head. It's seen as a farming creature and is used to produce meat, milk, and soft fur-like fabrics. It's able to defend itself using it's three horns and kicking its hind legs. It can cause broken bones.
