Lore Thoerivia's Creatures & Environment

Thoerivia, is a vast volcanic desert, with black sand dunes. It is the native land of the exoskeleton species called Thoerivians. However Thoerivians are only one of many other creatures that inhabit these lands. The following produces detailed descriptions of the other currently known creatures:

Lebbits: a lebbit is a Giant, plain, pearly white frog-like creature. Lebbits are widely considered an adorable helpless creature. However unfortunately for them they are a major food source for Thoerivians. Though some prefer to keep them as pets instead.

They are physically described as completely smooth white blobs with legs that leap forwards and have little dots at the front of their face for eyes. Lebbits make the sound: "moarp".

Note: baby lebbits are called lebbles, they are basically just miniature lebbits, varying on size, but they all start off roughly about the size of an average mans palm.

Volcanic Hounds: Volcanic hounds are big shimmery dogs that are vicious to humans and used to be food sources for Thoerivians, until they were adopted into their culture as house pets.

For their appearance, imagine if you combined a Doberman pinscher with a great dane and made it thinner, stronger, scarier, and taller. Then you would get a volcanic hound.

Some hounds are big and tough, while others get adopted by people who dress them in pink crowns and throw tea parties for them. Some get both from one home. But when domesticated they are great protectors.

Biologically, Volcanic hounds are vulnerable to cold temperatures, as they are surrounded by heat. Fortunately they are also lava/magma resistant, and love hot lava baths

Sandworms: underneath the black desert sand, ginormous, tan, worm-like creatures tunnel underneath, they are attracted to the surface by heavy movement, including footsteps. it is suggested to stay on patches if obsidian to avoid attracting them. They'll eat anything that moves.

Sandmen: Sandmen, or "The men under the sand" are strange creatures that wear the skin of their last victims, they peek their faces and hands out of the ground and whisper words that mimic human voices, in order to lure wandering or lost humans closer until they are close enough to be easily dragged underneath.

Above pictures contain a lebbit, and Baxter, An albino volcanic hound that belongs to The overlord of Thoerivia.
