WishingStar+Volcan creatures 2

Description

Another set of Creatures which inhabit Volcantracendes Pierres and Wishing Star Land. for :iconpegapuss-and-depanth:

Firstly I thought it would be nice to add a couple of Jackalope subspecies into the lands of the Depanths and Pegapuss respectively :D

For those of you new to what Jackalopes are, they are creatures of European and North American urban myth/folklore/mythology and are half jack rabbit half antelope (hence thier name- although I am quite confused myself as a majority of people depict them with deer antlers- rarely antelope ones (some people do depict them with antelope antlers though.)
I don't see them in media too often compared to lets say- dragons.
The only times I have ever seen a Jackalopes in media in my life were:
1. When I was younger- that hilarious puppet one on Comedy show 'America's Funniest People' (c) whoever directed and made that show (which was kinda like America's Funniest Home Video) named Jack Ching Botta Bing- and he was like Bugs Bunny (c) Warner Bros- in personality. He has the typical deer antlers I see on most Jackalopes.
2. RECENTLY An Episode of French Cartoon 'Omer and the Starchild' (c) Omer Productions (thanks to :icontielgar: and :iconstars-in-well: who are fans of it and who introduced me to this toon) - where several of them lived near the city of one of the shows' tarch races- the Polleurs. These Jackalopes had (surprisingly) a unicorn like horn instead of antlers- which was amazing. :D

Now back to the Jackalopes in this picture :D. The Jackalopes from the land of Volcantrancendes Pierre (the Depanth's home) or Volcan Jackalopes are the size of a real life wild hare (in shape too) and are forest-themed in colour (green/brown, fawn coloured etc). They have the deer antlers and live in the cold forest area. These Jackalopes are more likely to befriend long haired Depanths compared to the other kinds of depanth. Volcan Jackalopes have the magic power to run across lava as if it were soild.

The Jackalopes from Wishing Star Land (home of the Pegapuss) or Wishing Star Jackalopes are the shape and size of real life domestic dwarf rabbits, have antelope antlers and are cloud themed in colour (white and blue/ light grey, dark grey etc.) They reside in Sunshine medow and are most likely to befriend fire, soul/spirit and air pegapuss, compared to other element Pegapuss.
Wishing star Jackalopes have the magic power to hop very very long distances from cloud to cloud without loosing balance.

Unlike the Dragon-feline Depanths and winged horse-feline Pegapuss, these Jackalope Subspecies do not have any feuds between them despite thier difference in size, shape etc. and these swift antlered rabbits are likely to get along with one another :D

Now for the remaining 2 creatures here:

-The Nyxeel is an enigmatic specie creature found in Wishing Star Land's Starlight River. Nyxeels (from the words Eel and Nxy (Greek goddess of the night) are dark blue in colour with a thin silver fin and have the head of a real life weedy seadragon (those marine fish related to sea horses), the tail/body of a ribbon eel and front sea lion flippers. They are 50 centimeters long and 7 centimeters thick. Thier magic ability recalls the bioluminescence of the deep sea fish in real life- but acts like twinkling stars- which allows them to camouflage in the lake. They are as common as the fish we eat in real life (cod, salmon etc), but hard to spot when in the Starlight River as they camouflage well against the night sky like substance (or the night sky as they may float across the night skies of many fantasy worlds unnoticed). They DO emerge from the river when night falls- and they are able to levitate and float gracefully as long as there's darkness. In the sunlight, they are sluggish as fish without water- and have to move via thier flippers like sea lions- very slowly. Nyxeels are a meat/seafood? food source for the Pegapuss, but can also be kept by them (just like the fact we eat fish, but may keep fish as pets - don't ask XD). They are most likely to befriend dark element Pegapuss- and the nyxeel will be granted at least one magic power from the pegapuss if they become companions. :D

The Psittaciraptor is a reptile/bird/mammalian creature found in the mountainous areas of Volcantracendes Pierre. They are the size of real life small parrots (conures mostly). The Psittaciraptor has a parrot like beak and head, dinosaur like head spikes, pterosaur wings and kangaroo hind legs and tail. They act mostly birdish in nature and thier diet consists of rich volcanic and mountain clays. They can't fly very well, but have to bound- and at times glide. They are at times a food source for the Depanths, but can be trained to talk and mimic words. (similar to the way we keep chickens for food, but keep them as pets at times) Thier colour ranges are similar to that to the real life South American Macaws of our world- the most common colour similar to that of the scarlet macaw :D. Oh and they can be pretty noisy with their squawks and pterosaur like screeching- which can get annoying if there are too many of them XD.

Enjoy :D
