	*[[Ictheen]] - a seven foot tall, arthropodal creature with no eyes, a large mouth with a very long tongue, and strong arms and legs. It is covered in a thin layer of soft fur. Ictheens are observed to exhibit high intelligence, and can follow complex commands, but seldom exist for more than a few hours.		*[[Ictheen]] - a seven foot tall, arthropodal creature with no eyes, a large mouth with a very long tongue, and strong arms and legs.

	*[[Makerboch]] - small, grey-skinned bipedal creatures about two and a half feet tall. They have no speech but make grunting noises. Instead of a face they have a strange, mask-like object affixed to the front of their heads, upon which an image of eyes and a mouth changes to reflect ~~and~~ expression. They are able to walk on two legs but also run on all fours. Their fingers taper to points but they do not have claws or nails. Makerbochs are typically summoned in swarms for either fast labor or as a temporary guardian for something. Existence appears to drive these creatures insane, as they grow more wild and ferocious the longer they are kept. Typically these things cannot be kept in the physical world longer than a few hours.		*[[Makerboch]] - small, grey-skinned bipedal creatures about two and a half feet tall.

	The key commonality between all of these creatures is that if killed they evaporate, if something is cut off, that thing evaporates. They are not made out of conventional matter.

			==Types==
			===True-Mystical Creatures===
			True-mystical creatures are defined by their magical nature, and their inability to exist without magic. All possess innate [[Magic\|magical]] ability and many can shape-shift. Dragons are the most infamous, though unicorns come as a close second. While a dragon will not outright die if all magic is removed from an area, they will be severely weakened.

			===Pseudo-Mundane===
			The Pseudo-Mundanes are called this because, while they are magical in nature and mystical in origin (as opposed to artificially-created or "metal" creatures), they have a lifecycle and ways that are not governed by magic. Aten, for example, build spacecraft, while centaurs have been known to hold office and dwell in otherwise human cities. These beings do not shape-shift or benefit from innate magical abilities. They may have [[Magic]] of their own, but it must be learned like human magic.

			===Non-Sentient===
			Non-sentient creatures lack intelligence. They may possess innate magic but act primarily on instinct rather than thought. What seperates them from regular animals is their life-cycle. Basilisk, for example, "feed" by turning living creatures into stone. Galgan are effectively very large arachnids, and lack even a fully-developed brain. Kraken are in fact simply giant squid, with all of the same intelligence; but use innate magic to support their large size and gain a significant fraction of their energy requirements through magic (as opposed to eating).

			==Metal==
			A fourth category bears note, named in the [[Mage Wars]] as "Metal". These are beings, sometimes made of literal metals, that have a magical nature but of artificial creation. These are not true "mystical" creatures in a sense, as they are not natural.
