Haunt

 

Haunts are four-legged wraiths that are said to be seen around the Sky Barrens on foggy nights. These ghostly creatures have the characteristics of dogs, and are said to be particularly vicious. One of their most distinguishing features is their long mouth, which goes all along their extended bodies (or tails; the people who claim to have seen haunts are not sure what this is). This mouth is full of sharp teeth, and haunts are said to have as much as six fangs. Many people are doubtful that these phantoms exist, because there have only been a couple of sightings. The only people who truly believe are the ones who have seen these things themselves.

Arctic Hippo

Here is an arctic hippo.
 And an arctic hippo calf.
 One day I was watching Avatar: the Last Airbender. That TV show had a lot of interesting creatures. At one point they mentioned something called an arctic hippo. They never showed an image of one, so I decided to draw it. I drew a hippo with warm fur to endure arctic climates with.

Pirate Blimp

Remember how Planet Doodul exploded, leaving thousands of gigantic floating land chunks in the sky? That area is now called the Sky Barrens, because ever since the Great Catastrophe (the name given to the implosion in the planet's mantle, causing a large fraction of the planet to be dismembered from the rest of it), the earth shards have been deserted, save for a few tiny villages on the land chunks, and, of course, the occasional wanderer. The Sky Barrens are known to be a refuge for pirates, as there are no laws in this region. The pirates travel from sky shard to sky shard in great dirigibles  adorned with the jolly rodger and armed with cannons. With these pirate blimps they ransack the villages that they can find for supplies and treasure.
There is really no limit to the size and appearence of a pirate dirigible, but I am just showing the basic types.

Tree Gih

This is a tree gih (that can be pronounced anyway you want).It is a sort of imp creature that disguises itself as a tree. When small animals come by, it captures them and forces them to take it to their store of food. It usually takes a large amount of the creature's food, leaving little to nothing for the poor animal. The tree gih is considered one of the rudest creatures of the woods, though it is not thought of as evil. There are creatures that are a lot more wicked on Planet Doodul that make the tree gih look just a little bit shy of mischievous.
