Glossary 3

Core group: Feles-Proles

Subspecies: Lyvara

Pedigree: Lyvara’s ancestor is the general house cat.

Size: head-torso length from 189 to 212 centimeters (with tail 201 to 223 centimeters), withers from 97 to 105 centimeters.

Weight: 192 to 242 kilograms

Color and appearance: The Lyvara resembles a lynx in body shape. The characteristic ear brushes are also present, but in size it is far superior to its relatives. The elongated fur of the Lyvara is a deep red with black stripes like a zebra across its body. The Lyvara's short snout is also deep black.

Character: Very aggressive. Pack animal.

Features: The most striking thing about the Lyvara is the striped pattern.

Lifespan: The oldest known Lyvara, a descendant of the first generation, has been housed in the Historia research station for twenty-three years. He is estimated to be twenty-seven years old now. It is impossible to predict how the derivative gene will affect the further course of aging.

Distribution: rare

Distribution area: North and South America, Europe, and to a small extent Asia. 

-----

Core group: Canis-Proles 

Subspecies: Majes

Descent: Despite his delicate stature, it is assumed that he originally descended from a dog.

Size: head-torso length from 80 to 92 centimeters (possesses only one stump tail), withers from 72 to 86 centimeters. 

Weight: 63 to 90 kilograms

Color and Appearance: Very slim build with a pronounced chest area. A black stripe runs from the head over the back down to his stubby tail. The rest of his fur is a mix of gray and blue mottled fur.

Character: The males are solitary and only join groups of females, which usually consist of 3-7 proles, during the mating season. It is diurnal and prefers to be in inhabited areas.

Features: blue nose, blue hollow claws. The majes' poison decomposes its prey from within.

Lifespan: 4-7 years

Distribution: common

Distribution area: The Majes has already penetrated into large parts of Asia, but is preferred to be in warmer areas. 

-----

Core group: Sciurus-Proles

Subspecies: Minor

Descent: Due to its size and life expectancy, the minor is assumed to be derived from rats.

Size: head-torso length from 19 to 29 centimeters (with tail 24 to 35 centimeters), withers from 12 to 16 centimeters. 

Weight: 0.17 to 0.52 kilograms

Color and appearance: The minor goes through the color scale from brown tones to yellow to red. Its hind legs are strong and relatively long. In the front paws there are glands through which it can release poison that its prey absorbs through the skin, and paralyzes. If a person is attacked, they should consult a doctor as quickly as possible, as the nervous system can fail and partial paralysis can occur very quickly.

Character: Cunning and nocturnal.

Characteristics: Due to its size, minor nests have already been discovered in the most inaccessible places. It has also happened that they have penetrated living spaces through ventilation shafts and toilet drains. The minor is very nimble and agile, and it is best to kill him with traps or fire-throwers as he makes a very small target. He is able to jump 10 times his body size by jumping.

Lifespan: 2-3 years

Distribution: Rare

Distribution area: The minor can be found in South and North America, Europe, Asia and Africa.   

-----

Core group: Capella-Proles

Subspecies: Oryx

Descent: Due to the nature of the body, hooves, and antlers, it is assumed that it originally came from goats.

Size: head-torso length from 95 to 115 centimeters (with tail 110 to 135 centimeters), withers from 70 to 92 centimeters. 

Weight: 27 to 42 kilograms

Color and appearance: The oryx has a uniform purple hair color. The hooves and collars are hung long, the rest of the fur is comparatively short. The oryx is built like all goats, only its legs are relatively long. Also characteristic is the goatee and the conspicuous horns that stand close together and then diverge in a V-shape. They are wide and spiral.

Character: nomads who move through the area in small family groups.

Characteristics: The only known subspecies of the Capella proles.

Lifespan: The oldest known oryx has been housed in the Historia research station for thirteen years. He is estimated to be sixteen years old. It is impossible to predict how the derivative gene will affect the further course of aging.

Distribution: normal

Distribution area: North and South America, Europe

-----

Core group: Meles-Proles

Subspecies: Ossa

Descent: Due to its body structure, it is assumed that the Ossa originally descended from the venomous animals.

Size: head-torso length from 148 to 180 centimeters (with tail 167 to 185 centimeters), withers from 37 to 52 centimeters. 

Weight: 36 to 52 kilograms

Color and Appearance: From the nose to the tail, the color of the coat darkens from white to a dark green. Ears protruding to the side. Short snout. Gripping hands. The body shape comes very close to that of a line-like animal.

Character: pack animal (family groups)

Characteristics: With its strong jaws, the Ossa is not only able to bite the bones of its prey, it also eats them and leaves almost nothing of its meals.

Lifespan: The oldest recorded Ossa has reached the age of nine years in the research facility Historia.

Distribution: common

Distribution area: North and South America, Europe, and to a small extent Asia.  

-----

Core group: Lacerta-Proles 

Subspecies: Pillicula

Descent: lizard

Size: head-torso length from 17.5 to 23.7 centimeters (with tail 36.2 to 42.9 centimeters), withers from 12 to 18 centimeters. 

Weight: 1.2 to 2.1 kilograms

Color and appearance: The lizard-like body is covered with elongated, beige fur. The neck looks too long for the body. Under the bony shield on the back of the head are two small openings for the ear canals. Both the head with the round button eyes and the legs are only covered with white scales. Colloquially it is also referred to as a hairy dragon.

Character: Calm and treacherous. Since he cannot move quickly on his short legs, he plays dead to attract potential prey. Otherwise he is also satisfied with insects.

Characteristics: Bears youngsters in eggs and scalds them. Razor-sharp teeth that are supplied with poison by glands.

Lifespan: The oldest known Pillicula has been housed in the Historia research station for fourteen years. He is estimated to be seventeen now. It is impossible to predict how the derivative gene will affect the further course of aging.

Distribution: common

Habitat: Mostly found in warm areas around the world. This species rarely gets lost in colder places. 

-----

Core group: Feles-Proles

Subspecies: Spuma

Descent: Despite its size, it has been proven that the spuma is one of its forefathers, the general house cat.

Size: head-torso length from 170 to 250 centimeters (with tail 290 to 380 centimeters), withers from 120 to 143 centimeters. 

Weight: 170 to 215 kilograms

Color and appearance: The green outer hair is streaked with black stripes on the back. The chest and peritoneum are light green to white. The physique is similar to that of a lion, although it can be compared with a snow leopard with its exceptionally long tail. The spuma is exceptionally short haired for a prole, only the back and tail testify to the length that is typical for every prole.

Character: Nocturnal. Lives in small family groups.

Features: Green claws.

Lifespan: The oldest known spuma has been housed in the Historia research station for eleven years. He is now estimated to be fifteen years old. It is impossible to predict how the derivative gene will affect the further course of aging.

Distribution: Rare

Distribution area: South America, and to a small extent also Europe. 

 -----

Core group: Feles-Proles

Subspecies: Toxrin

Descent: cat

Size: head-torso length from 80 to 120 centimeters (with tail 130 to 160 centimeters), withers from 50 cm to 70 cm 

Weight: 20 kg to 35 kg

Color and appearance: carmine. Black mask, black legs (with short hair), black tip of the tail. The body is similar to that of an oriental cat (Siam, Bengal, Tonkanese), but this is difficult to see under the long fur. Since he is almost blind (a genetic defect is suspected in the whole species), he uses the large, black ears for better orientation. The long tail helps the Toxrin to keep its balance while climbing.

Character: One of the few loners among the proles. The Toxrin is even very aggressive towards its own breed.

Features: Get claws, which are supplied with venom by glands in the paws.

Lifespan: The Toxrin only has a short life expectancy of around 5 to 7 years.

Distribution: normal

Distribution area: The Toxrin can be found in South and North America, Europe, Asia and Africa.  

Core group: Ursus-Proles

Subspecies: Virido

Ancestry: Studies show that the Virido originally descended from the raccoon.

Size: head-torso length from 130 to 190 centimeters (has a stubby tail), withers from 70 to 90 centimeters. 

Weight: 130 to 175 kilograms

Color and appearance: The fur of the Virido is mottled yellow / green. It has ball joints that can be compared with those of a bear, and the shape of the body also suggests an ancestry from a bear, but it has been proven that the ancestor must belong to the group of Procyonidae (small bears / raccoons).

Character: pack animal. Nocturnal and very shy, which means that this subspecies rarely has incidents with humans. They mostly live in forests and only attack if you penetrate their territory.

Features: Is only found in very cold areas. Green claws. Toxic (poisoning leads to death within seconds).

Lifespan: 9-12 years

Distribution: Rare

Habitat: Native to North America only.  

 -----

Core group: Canis-Proles 

Subspecies: Wrath

Lineage: dog

Size: head-torso length from 120 to 140 centimeters (with tail 153 to 170 centimeters), withers from 70 to 90 centimeters. 

Weight: 60 to 72 kilograms

Color and Appearance: The physique is very similar to that of a Timber Wolf. The basic color is mostly a dark cobalt blue that turns black on the paws and tail; just like on the ears. The eyes are rimmed with white fur.

Character: Highly social in the pack, and probably the only known prole that rears in the pack. The Wrath is highly aggressive when it comes to defending his territory.

Features: Perhaps the most noticeable feature of the Wrath is its white-rimmed eyes. It also has a very strong jaw that misjudges itself as soon as it has grabbed its prey.

Lifespan: The oldest known specimen of a Wrath was 9 years old in the history research station.

Distribution: common

Distribution area: It is native to South and North America.
