+=== Bloodfruit ===
+**AKA Vampire Rose**
+A bloodfruit bush is partially named for the large, lustrous red berries it grows. Get your hands on some and you'll be treated to a true culinary delight: sweet, juicy and savory all at once. Try and pick some from the bush and you'll discover the other reason for its name: leaves rustle and grasp, draining your blood through thousands of microtubules with the merest graze. This is how the bush gets the nutrients necessary to grow its fruit in such rocky soil. Most mountain travelers consider it a fair exchange, but give the bush a respectfully wide berth when they aren't hungry. Many are the bleached skeletons lying in the middle of a bloodfruit patch, who overestimated their own strength... or simply got a reputation for cheating the bush. Local culture frowns on that.

+=== Bone Ape ===
+**AKA Blakutan, Sorcerilla**
+It's no secret that some animals use tools, sometimes to an usually sophisticated degree. While not necessarily more intelligent than any other species of clever monkey, Bone Apes have mastered the use of one particular tool that serves them quite well in the dangerous peaks of the Exhale: necromancy.
+A full-grown bone ape is a strong, but straightforward opponent that prefers to hang back from combat and throw things at intruders. The first thing they tend to throw is a small bone chip taken from a former member of their troop, which rapidly grows into an entire animated skeleton mid-flight. A bone ape always has backup, even when alone.
+**Wants:** To be left alone, to defend the troop, to acquire bones.

+=== Foguar ===
+**AKA Mist Lion**
+A foguar is a medium-sized cat that lives and hunts in an extended family group. Their spotted blue-grey coats are luxuriously plush and wick moisture beautifully, but they are most often hunted for another prize entirely: the strange metallic organ that grows at the base of their skulls. It reverberates in response to the cat's vocalizations, and interestingly enough also causes the same organ to reverberate in the same way in all of the rest of the cat's clowder. With a bit of sorcery these can be adapted to create long-range communications for humanoid use, although the supply is vanishingly rare. The cats look out for each other and send invisible messages on the wind. They are difficult to find, except when they've decided to make a meal of you with a frighteningly well-choreographed ambush.
+**Wants:** To defend the clowder and territory, to acquire meat.

+**AKA Glyptotank**
+Juggerdillo graze the Exhale slopes in small herds. These enormous beasts are covered in a leathery, segmented shell lined with rough-edged bony spikes which serve as their primary means of both defense and offense. When threatened, juggerdillos curl up into a ball and either roll-smash their enemies or simply bounce on down the slope out of reach.
+Although primarily herbivores, a juggerdillo is opportunistically omnivorous and will occasionally dig up the ground for worms and insects or slurp down a mucker. It is not recommended to leave babies or small children unattended near them, which is just one of several hurdles to overcome before domestication becomes a possibility.

+If you're lucky enough to kill one, a mistblade is revealed to be a thin, hairless and incredibly pale humanoid wielding a wicked scimitar and wearing nothing but a loincloth and gas mask. Most only see the mistblade alive- or rather, don't see it; the mistblades jump from bank to bank of fog and cut down their foes sight unseen. Nobody knows exactly where they come from, but it's pretty easy to guess what they want: death to all intruders.

They gasp and flop around as they filter nutrients from the muck with their baleen-filled mouths, but do not make the mistake of thinking they are totally safe. A mucker's bulbous eyes hold a strange power to disintegrate anything that meets their gaze, melting them down into a pile of goo that can be slurped up at leisure. Hunters in search of a delicious mucker to fry up are advised to cover their eyes and be willing to get dirty.
