   * [[Crimson Deepfish|Crimson Deepfish]] – A blind, slow-moving species that uses vibration and chemical cues to navigate near hydrothermal vents.
   * [[Glowfin Ray|Glowfin Ray]] – Flat, cartilaginous predator known for its bioluminescent fin tips, believed to hunt in complete darkness.
+  * [[Rilzak]] – Shape-shifting ambush-predator, capable of altering the pigment of its skin to seamlessly blend into its surroundings.
 ==== Aquatic Insects ====
-Scalding Skimmer Larvae – Insect larvae that cling to mineral outcrops in geothermal pools; develop rapidly before emerging as short-lived adult forms.

 ==== Aquatic Invertebrates ====
-[[Tubeworm|Tubeworm]] Colonies – Clustered around sulfur vents, absorbing nutrients from chemical plumes.
+    * [[Darun]]  – Highly intelligent, octopus-like cephalopod. Unlike most deep-sea creatures, the Darun has developed an advanced problem-solving ability, camouflage adaptation, and tool usage.
-[[Lava Crabs|Lava Crabs]] – Armored invertebrates that dwell in steam fissures, adapted to rapid temperature changes.

-[[Deep Mussels|Deep Mussels]] – Filter feeders anchored to volcanic rock, tolerant of extreme heat.

+  * [[Nuzar]] – Bioluminescent filter feeder that thrives in the nutrient-rich geothermal shallows of the Ralar Bay.
+  * [[Taval|Taval]] – Hard-shelled crustacean-like species native to the warm volcanic shallows and underwater geothermal caves of the Ralar Bay.
 ==== Marine Microfauna ====
-Thermophilic Microbes – Bacteria and archaea that form the foundation of the bay's food chain, often living directly in boiling pools or near lava channels.

 ==== Surrounding Fauna ====
-Cliff Gliders – Warm-seeking amphibious gliders often seen near geothermal rock shelves, using updrafts to glide between steam cliffs.
+  * [[Kajanga]]  – Amphibian-fish hybrid, blind yet possessing large, functionless eyes. Known for its  role in Native myths.
-Ash Rats – Small mammals drawn to surface warmth; feed on lichen and algae near cooled lava pools.
+  * [[Nathar]] – Semi-aquatic mammal highly adapted to both land and sea, using its muscular limbs and webbed feet to traverse the rocky shores, ice caverns, and geothermal pools that characterize its habitat.
