Adorned Vombata
"Red-colored vombata are considered lucky by the Enlightened. It was a red vombata that was present when they first arrived in Zereth Mortis."
Bronze Helicid
"Some helicids of Zereth Mortis have strangely metallic shells. The ones who do are generally a bronze color, indistinct from the metal any novice miner could work, save that this creature's construction far surpasses the skill of any novice."
Bronzewing Vespoid
"Bronzewing vespoids are the result of attempting to synthesize a vespoid queen with no other members of a new hive. While no mortal has yet discovered how to synthesize a hive, the bronzewings are reliable mounts just as they are."
Buzz
"Buzz buzz buzz, buzz buzz! Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz. Buzz buzz buzz, buzz buzz buzz."
Curious Crystalsniffer
"Most vombata enjoy tunneling through the ground, but these sniffers seem to have an unerring ability to locate crystals buried deep underground and will congregate around large deposits."
Darkened Vombata
"The schematic to synthesize these darkened vombata seem to have appeared as a reaction to the Mawsworn invasion. The resulting vombata look different--darker, much like the invaders--but behave normally."
Deathrunner
"These wild cervids are only truly at peace when running through--or between--the lands of Death."
Desertwing hunter
"In service of the great Purpose, desertwing hunters were designed to fill distant skies of forgotten realms of the Shadowlands."
Forged Spiteflyer
"There's nothing that can make you feel as alive quite like riding through the realm of Death while atop a being that hates you."
Genesis Crawler
"The Enlightened who have observed tarachnids believe that this variety may be some of the first beings to ever walk the land of Zereth Mortis."
Goldplate Bufonid
"This armored bufonid is always ready to leap into battle... as long as that battle is really, really close. In a pinch, it can leap multiple times and eventually reach the battle."
Heartbond Lupine
"These wild cervids are only truly at peace when running through--or between--the lands of Death."
Ineffable Skitterer
"These tarachnids move with a purpose unknown to others, answering only to a higher calling. Whatever that may be, it appears to include routine assistance to mortals who need a ride. For now."
Mawdapted Raptora
"Since the Jailer's incursion, new raptora have been synthesized by Zereth Mortis that are capable of resisting the corrupting influence of the Maw."
Pale Regal Cervid
"Looking at these majestic creatures, it's not difficult to see how the idea of cervids developed into the stags found on Azeroth and other mortal worlds."
Prototype Leaper
"An ancient schematic allows for the instantiation of this early, but functional, bufonid design."
Raptora Swooper
"The raptora swooper is one of the most vicious iterations of its kind, perfectly suited for its ecological niche. Needing no further adjustments, the ones synthesized today are identical to those created in the past."
Russet Bufonid
"Russet is a rare color among bufonids that is normally only seen on specimens that are tainted by other cosmic forces, or synthesized from a perplexing schematic that invokes that color."
Scarlet Helicid
"This helicid's unusual reddish tint is clearly intentional in its design, but the only other difference between these and other helicids is the unusual lack of any ooze."
Serenade
"These beautiful helicids emerge only at night. When they are pleased, their shells hum with a joyful melody."
Sundered Zerethsteed
"Whatever the purpose of these cervids once was, it is long forgotten. Though they are not Dominated, they have been corrupted by the unintended presence of Mawsworn in the sacred realm of Zereth Mortis."
Tarachnid Creeper
"These tarachnids make their home in the darkest corners of Zereth Mortis, coming out only to hunt (or, sometimes, carry a rider around)."
Unsuccessful Prototype Fleetpod
"This creature was not designed by the First Ones, but instead by an unknown being attempting to create a very fast runner. Needless to say, the attempt failed."
Vespoid Flutterer
"A flutterer is an overgrown vespoid worker created to carry a rider. Rather than looking to a queen for leadership, it looks to its rider to guide it in all things."
