Tainted Tree Guards
Image
Developed by Nightshade
Details: The Tainted Tree Guards, Tainted for short, are of course the dark and corrupt versions of the benevolent Tree Guards who watch over the forest. A Tainted has usually become a Tainted for a variety of reasons. It could be anything from pollution induced insanity, immortal influence, or even mortal influence in the form of harmful magics or enough constant attacking to make them wrath full. Some theorize it could even be old age as the only know Tainted are usually Massive or Elder Tree Guards. Those who hold the Tree Guard in high respect usually deny this theory almost immediately.

Lifespan and Development: Tainted spend the first portion of their lives as any regular Tree Guard would, protecting their forests and everything in them. However something happens, no one is quite sure what but it changes the very nature of the Tree Guard. From its branches to its roots it turns into something darker and far more twisted. When a Tree Guard hits this stage of existence they no longer grow, they no longer breed, some would claim they aren't even alive. They become sick and twisted shadows of their former strength and glory.

Tainted Tree Guards despite how powerful they are, don't usually live long. This has to do with how aggressive they are, often fighting until the challenge something stronger than themselves, or they fight until they die of exhaustion.

Diet: Tainted Tree Guards can survive off the same diet as a normal Tree Guard, however the Tainted tend to also develop carnivorous tendencies. They can't digest anything the devour though, often throwing it up hours later.

Temperament: Tainted Tree Guards are highly aggressive. The Tainted Tree Guards will cause fights with anything they come across. This includes other Tree Guards or even each other.

Abilities: Powerful regenerative abilities.

Weaknesses: Fire is usually the easiest weapon to use against a Tainted Tree Guard

Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ
Image
Developed by Chevnoavi (Noah)
Habitat: Desnind, Makubwa Lori

Lifespan and Development:
The Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ is a small (.35 ounces) tree-dwelling rodent native to Desnind. From head to where their tails start, the Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ grow to 4-5 inches. Their lifespan varies for wild (5-8 arcs) and domesticated (8-10+ arcs). All throughout the rest of their lives, their teeth will grow. The gestation period of the Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ is 29-40 trials, with a normal litter of 2-4 pups. The pups are born blind, and only green and white. The babies will stay with their mothers for 2-2.5 months. Once they reach adolescence, their trademark red throat patches start to grow. By 3 months they are fully grown, only then do gender differences begin to show. The males develop a larger and brighter patch than their female counterparts.

Diet: Fungus, seeds, nuts, fruit, small eggs, small bugs, caterpillars, and small snakes.

Temperament: The Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ are very docile creatures, at their best playful and their worst just simply shy. Many children in Desnind befriend them by offering them food. The Tunawa also get along with them, quite often using them as small riding mounts.

Abilities: Besides being excellent climbers, the Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ can also solve easy puzzles. Children in Desnind have also been known to befriend them and domesticate them.
