  Vucarro: The planet on which Seishu and all these other beings and creatures live. It's mostly covered in forest with pockets of water scattered all about. A singular desert takes up around five percent of the planet, and the 'Cleared Area' is where a more advanced alien species lives. A large variety of plants and animals live upon the planet, and despite seeming like it would be hard due to a lack of surface water, it is largely due to huge underground springs that life exists here. Many feet below the crust of the planet there is a vast ocean of water, which filters upward through the surface due to a constant boil it undergoes. The water itself forms from some unexplained source at the very core of the planet. The planet's atmosphere is similar to that of other survivable planets, however it's gravity is higher than that of the average planet due to the planet having more mass, and being closer to it's sun. The planet has an intensified magnetic shield that blocks out almost all forms of radiation that would cause physical harm to it's inhabitants. Vucarro is prone to storms and rain, and despite being closer to it's sun than most livable planets, is very cool a majority of the time. Winter can be quite harsh on Vucarro, this is due to the mantle of the planet being mostly water, which transfers both heat and cold very well.

  Sentient
  
  Bekka: The Bekka are a non-tribal peoples that live in small towns of what would be near earth's modern day level of technological advancement, they generally dislike the concept of tribal life, but don't mind tribal people. They also frown upon the way Gazzmen rely solely on machines to transform and take from the planet and people, but don't mind sharing with them as long as they respect them. They're basically a neutral party that exists on the planet in small towns within the jungle. Despite being neutral, they have to have walls to protect them from monsters, and each town has their own guard and leader, the leaders range from Kings to Mayors, and sometimes they fight within themselves. Bekka can be any type of person from any planet, which means their actual species is highly variable. Even some Gazzmen have become Bekka, the name is more symbolic of how they live than what they are.
  
  Gazzmen: Otherwise known to the tribal nations as "Aliens"; these people come from a planet of more advanced natures to inhabit Vucarro, though they thought this would be a fast and easy task, the creatures, inhabitants, and the planet itself seem to struggle hard to prevent it. They have cleared and maintain 10% of the planet in a rough estimate, this percentage is surrounded by a massive wall that is able to expand outward slowly. Gazzmen are often attacked by animals and Jukma tribes if they leave the cleared area. hey use machines to clear the forest, and move the wall, at a constant slow rate. Gazzmen are actually larger beings than the Jukma, and resemble anthropomorphic rhinos, however there are varying species within the Gazzmen gene pool due to technological alterations, and some look more like cats, dogs, or other animals. Even some Jukma have been convinced to join the Gazzmen, but have been exiled from allowances with the other tribes due to it.
  
  Jukma: The Jukma are a species of anthropomorphic beings that resemble a Jackalope in another mythology, they comprise the main population of the planet Vucarro and span far and wide along it's surface. The Jukma do not really like fighting, but are generally pressed into it when their habitat or villages are threatened by the expanding Gazzmen or animals. Tribal in nature, they love to socialize and trade with other villages, and even tried to befriend the Gazzmen when they first arrived. However, no communication has been made since that first attempt, and they now all fear, or hate the Gazzmen. Jukma have varying fur patterns, they also have different vocal patterns based on their village of origin. Females and males do not have designated gender roles in families, and do whatever it takes to make everyone happy and survive. Jukma that leave and join the Gazzmen are referred to as "Beasts" as they have betrayed their own for technology and greed.
  
  Creation
  
  Pebble Brew: This brew is an alcohol made from strange stones that are similar to sponges, they are used to soak up fluid from a type of berry plant and mixed with the milk from Sweet Puffs to produce a very tasty liqour that has a gentle flavor and strength.
  
  Native Tools & Clothing
  A variety of low-tech tools created by the Jukma which existed before the Bekka and Gazzmen, they do not need any other technology to survive, and the planet is not harmed by the tools they do use. Their clothing varies from heavy thick winter stuff knitted or sewn together, and light types worn in the summer. Styles vary greatly, and clothing is one of the few things all Jukma love to talk about.

  Animal
  
  Rouk: A species of small sand-worms, however; small sand-worms are at least seven feet in length and fifteen at most. These huge worms will snag a prey and drag part of them into the sand, often they will consume it whole unless it is large. If this is the case, many other worms may help to pull the prey into pieces that are more manageable. The ideas of what the mythical being Desteros looks like are oft based on these worms and intensified. Despite being able to burrow most effectively around through the soft sand of the desert, they cannot burrow into the root-dense earth of the rest of the planet, and so by natural forces they are trapped in the desert. The general fear of the Jukma is that if they Gazzmen clear the forest, the worms will be free to roam and devour anyone on the planet. The Gazzmen have been testing poisons to try and kill off this species of predator, however Rouk are highly intelligent and will not eat anything that isn't alive and moving of it's own will, making this hard.

  Desteros: Is a mythical, huge worm beast that roams the desert area of the planet. It is said to be gigantic and have so many teeth you'd get dizzy counting them. This monster of the sands has been said to have consumed all the desert villages when they were settled. Often Blamed for many mishaps in the desert if someone attempts to cross and never shows up again. Despite the amount of rumor, no one has ever actually seen the creature.

  Fuzzle Worm: Small worms, or rather, small compared to their desert dwelling kin, that produce a tremendous amount of silk in long sheets. It isn't known why they do this, only that they enjoy it. The Fuzzle worms also don't like to move trees. In fact, they sit in the same tree and give the air of being annoyed that it's there until the silk is gone. When this occurs, they jump right back into action as a colony and rebuild it. The whole process takes about a month, so most villages have several Fuzzle Worm trees, which suits the worms just fine. These worms also never seem to breed, but the population has never decreased either, when a village grows, more fuzzle worms are needed, and seem to just show up.
  
  Gallo: A beast pretty similar to a deer and elk combined, but without horns, is often trained as a mount for riding. These creatures live in small groups and fight with their hooves, kicking with rear ones or lashing with front ones while rearing. They also can run incredibly fast. They have a habit of climbing things as well, sometimes things you'd never expect, like people or other animals.
  
  Tepsu: A creature similar to an alpaca that has lots of fluffy fluffs which is used for making winter clothing and blankets. Tepsi have a docile nature, but can headbutt with enough force to cave in a person or creature's skull.

  Sweet Puff: A delicious flower pod which you milk for it's honey sweet milky nectar. The flowers pods are like fluffy clouds of cotton in a oval shape. If not regularly squeezed, a pod will explode and splatter the tasty contents all over the place; often this is allowed to happen at first as they spread their seeds when they do it. After many of the plants are alive, they are milked regularly. The Sweet Puff milk can be consumed as it is, but most of the time they make it into hard candy or taffy-like sweets.

  Animal
  
  Gashek Mother: Though not always female; the mothers are much larger Gasheks, and generally lead the hordes of smaller ones. Instead of two heads, they have three and their body size is at least ten times larger. Though not in a command position, the Gashek mothers are far stronger than the runts. This size and strength makes them incredibly deadly.
  
  Gashek Runt: Small vicious creatures that live in packs, they come in variable sizes; from 2 feet to 4 feet in length, they sport two heads on separate necks. They were thought to be a sort of lizard, but there is only a partial resemblance due to their scaled bodies. Will attack lone targets. Generally relying on ambush tactic, they will very rarely attack head on, or more than once in a night due to having a high rate of success.
  
  Tree of Heads: A creature that's much like a tree, they take root and very rarely do anything. They do on occasion speak to people, individuals or groups sometimes, and convince them to take a different path. It's said that depending on which head of the tree you listen to, you'll either be led to great treasure, happiness, or death. It's said that those who die, do so in such a way that it feeds the roots of the tree. There are actually many heads on it, however they are very polite and take turns speaking, it's also widely known that many of them say the same thing as another head if they're on the same main branch.

  Plant
  
  Kingale: Is a giant pot shaped flower which contains a slimy fluid that is commonly used as a lubricant by more industrious people. The main use the plant has is as a healing aid. The slime stops blood loss and helps the mending of wounds due to an agent in the liquid that reacts to injuries in people the same way it heals itself. The plant will gush dramatically if damaged, coating itself in slime, the fluid then takes on the cellular structure that is missing and slowly rebuilds it. Potions made from this stuff will make you very sick, but will also cure almost any illness due to the way it courses through your system looking for problems.

  Animal
  
  Bluspie: Bluspie are strange furry animals similar to that of the earth-born Capybara, however they are shockingly strange colors, ranging from shocking purples to simple creams. They tends to wander in small herds, like to climb things, and make funny noises at Jukma when they see them. They are actually very intelligent creatures and will avoid traps with ease, even setting off some of the simpler ones with rocks or sticks so they can get the bait unharmed. They really really love to eat sweet puffs, but since they do not grow in the glade, they are often seen sneaking off into the forest to find them. Despite false and misleading folklore spread by the old to the young, they cannot fly and do not have wings hidden in their backs.
  
  Fesszel: Tiny sheep like animals whose fur is hard and wiry, and often used for cleaning pads. These adorable things are also milked, and produce quite a lot for their little body size. Fesszel's are also mildly skittish and like to hide under things if spooked.
  
  Swishoo: A type of large bull that the Jukma hunt for meat, Swishoo are roughly the size of elephants, and so one of them will be enough to feed a village for a long time. They do not move in herds, and are surprisingly stealthy creatures, so it takes a lot of tracking to hunt one down.

  Keeterfur: A round fluffy furred creature which is super soft, and very elusive. A cat-like head was hidden within the giant amount of fluff. They have legs, but they don't show very much. Their tails are long and poofy, and used to help hide them in snow drifts by covering their faces. It's also uncommon to find them in any other color than white, but may have speckles. They are highly intelligent, very skittish, and hide in burrows in the snowy areas of mountains. They will only ever venture out or be given pets if you approach them with Acodots or Fesh leaves, which they love to eat.

  Animal
  
  Abben: An Abben is a large species of crab being that lumbers around from lake to lake, and never really bother people. Their shells are so hard that hunting them is impossible for anyone without advanced technology. These massive crabs will often avoid cluttered paths, or very hilly areas. They are generally curious and friendly as well, so if you see one you could easily interact with it. If they stop, they are usually waiting for you to climb on and hitch a ride. This behavior is common, but not really well explained. The general consensus is that they allow their young to ride on their backs, and choose if they like whatever they're looking at or not, and thus adopt them. If they do, they are allowed to ride. If attacked, they focus only on trying to grab and crush their attacker. The Abben's claw arms are quite agile despite the gentle giant nature.
  
  Acodot: This small water dwelling creature likes to clean Abben when they come into the lake. They're small and have many little legs, and four little arms. Similar to the earth shrimp in body shape and taste. They are fished frequently from lakes to be cooked and eaten, or caught in mountain pools by Keeterfurs. These critters have a semi-tough shell that protects them from other small aquatic animals, and are ignored by most larger ones as they clean them.
  
  Clover Snail: Huge snails with gigantic shells, they roam around covered in living vegetation mostly comprised of clovers. Sometimes they are kept by villages because a lot of different types of vegetation will grow on their shells. Basically this makes the animal an enormous mobile farm that will never become barren. The animals live for impossible amounts of time, to say the least there has never been a dead one found. Fesh often is grown on them.

  Docud: A Docud is a type of rock, rather, a type of living rock sponge. They absorb and retain fluids of all sorts, digesting any little organisms that may live within them, and then generally eject the left over filtered liquid. It's common to find them all over the shore of lakes, they are a constant source of fresh water if you put them in a river. They can stay submerged for an eternity and be just fine, but they never grow larger in captivity. Some bigger ones have been found, but what made them grow larger is unknown. Docud are used in the making of Pebble Brew. The Docud are fed the juice during it's early fermentation stages, removing all the bacteria and filtering the juice into a more pure solution.
  
  Fesh: Is an herb that grows in three different places and tastes completely different based on where you obtained it from. Fesh is a small fish like plant, it has a thin line like stem and fish shaped leaves. It grows in the clouds lakes that exist high in the sky of Vucarro and tastes very light and airy. It also grows in the deepest ponds and lakes of the planet and has a very damp, and cool mint-blueberry taste. Lastly, it grows on the backs of Clover Snails with a very strong menthol like flavor combined with a hint of orange. When smoked, White Fesh forms fluffy white clouds, Blue Fesh produces a low hanging billowy mist that smells amazingly like blueberry and mint, and Snail Fesh rolls out of the mouth and down the body like a crawling snail, eventually wandering away with the wind.

  The Wandering Mountain: Most think this mass of moving land is just that, a piece of rock. It's easy to see why, of course, since the old thing is covered with dirt, rocks, and vegetation only some of the way up. However, this 'mountain' is actually a gargantuan Clover Snail that has been around for as long as the Jukma can remember. It's grown so large that it has it's own lake cloud at the top of it's monstrous shell. The fesh that grows on the shell, within the lake, is said to be the best around and is incredibly rare. So sought after that people try to mimic it, or claim they have it to swindle or impress others.

  Glit: A species of bird that have gold or silver feathers that reflect the sun very well, hunting for dropped feathers is common due to them being considered lucky. The feathers are used to craft jewelry, or are set into gifts to provide luck to the recipient.

  Cloud Lake: These lakes exist as large masses of cloud clumped together. Clouds are usually made from the vapor of water, but in this case they're made up giant floating chunks of rock which emit vapor. Currently the origin of these rocks is unknown, however it is known that if you use a glider off a mountain and catch the wind right, it's possible to land on one of the lower floating ones. It is known that the rocks are made of a highly magnetic material, so wooden tools are used to harvest Fesh, and fish for small aquatic life forms in the pools. The pools themselves are frigid, so getting into them can quickly lead to hypothermia if you're not well furred, or have dry clothes and a blanket with you.

  Minic: A super tiny bug that has some semblance of intelligence much like the Tree of Heads. They do not speak, instead they gather together in huge swarms and form themselves into shapes to lure sentient beings and animals alike into danger. If they succeed in luring them into a death dealing danger they will often devour the person. The only way to escape them is to control your own impulses and deny them your attention. Ignoring them is tricky, since a light they give off makes the insects seem more real as whatever they take the form of in the gloom of night and shadows.
