Artesia was and is the home of many native Creatures.
Most creatures predated the arrival of humans.
 |
The Falcons – They ended up becoming the realms main Communciation carriers and couriers of small packages for many years until the tyrants seized control and replaced them with the Ravens who were enslaved conjures. |
 |
Golden Dragon – An almost mythological creature in the realm. These native Dragon species were the original “Kings” of the realm back when Leonardo Da Vinci first arrived however they were hunted by corrupt human sorcerers like Michelangelo and eventually went nearly extinct. Many years and wars contributed to the loss of their normal territory and hunting grounds which were taken over by their conjured dragon rivals which outnumbered them. there hasn’t been a sighting of one in the realm in a very long time. |
 |
Various Bugs and Critters – Bugs like the little light emitting magic “Night Lights” that Wholio is friends with, are plenty and in various forms in the forests of Artesia. |
 |
Monticiello Creature – A drawf-Gnome-like race (like Salai’s family) of beings who before the humans arrived were the most notable and creative “human-like” creatures in the realm. highly trusted, they are also responsible for Creating the “Order of Concordia” and they run the Astrolaythe time keeping system as well as being the realms official historians and rare magic and non-magic artifact custodians. All of that is kept at the Sorcerer’s clearing (although some are in Castle Artesia too in the vault for safe keeping). |
