Flora & Fauna

FAUNA

  1. Mistweaver - [Crown Zone] A large, bioluminescent butterfly with translucent wings spanning 2 meters. Travels in groups through Sky Wells, creating spiral patterns that glow in darkness. Feeds on Moonblossom nectar.
  2. Windborn Serpent - [Whisper Zone] An iridescent tree snake that can flatten its body to glide between canopy layers. Uses Spiral Vines as launching points to catch Mistweaver butterflies.
  3. Canopy Fisher - [Crown & Whisper Zone] A spider-like creature that casts silk nets between trees to catch wind currents and flying prey. Often builds webs near Breezebud clusters to catch attracted insects.
  4. Spiritmonkey - [Whisper Zone] Small, silver-furred primates that travel in family groups through Sky Wells using their prehensile tails. Feed on Cloudfruit and help pollinate Crown Zone plants.
  5. Driftwing Raptor - [Crown Zone] A silent predatory bird with specialized feathers that eliminate wind resistance. Nests in Ancient Windharps, hunting Spiritmonkeys and smaller birds.
  6. Songweaver Bird - [Whisper Zone] Tiny, jewel-colored birds that create complex melodies by directing wind through their hollow crest feathers. Pollinates Echo Orchids.
  7. Shadow Prowler - [Shadow Zone] A large, panther-like creature with fur that absorbs light. Hunts in the Shadow Zone, using Mist Ferns for cover.
  8. Breezewing Lizard - [Whisper Zone] Has membranous fins that detect minute air currents. Lives in colonies within Windhollow Trees, feeding on insects.
  9. Windwhisper Bat - [Shadow & Whisper Zone] Enormous bats with echolocation that mimics Breeze Dancers' songs. Roost in Sky Wells, feeding on Nightshade Fruit.
  10. Aeromite - [All Zones] Tiny, luminous insects that swarm in wind currents. Essential pollinators for many plants and food for larger creatures.

FLORA

  1. Ancient Windharp - [Crown Zone] Massive trees with hollow trunks that create melodic sounds in wind. Home to Sky Wells and various creatures, especially Driftwing Raptors.
  2. Spiral Vine - [Whisper Zone] Twisting vines that grow in perfect spirals, used as natural pathways between canopy layers. Favorite launch points for Windborn Serpents.
  3. Breezebud - [Crown & Whisper Zone] Floating flowers that release spores on specific wind currents. Attracts various pollinators with sweet scent.
  4. Moonblossom - [Crown Zone] Large, luminous flowers that open only in twilight. Primary food source for Mistweavers.
  5. Cloudfruit Tree - [Crown Zone] Bears lightweight, fluffy fruits that disperse on wind currents. Favored food of Spiritmonkeys.
  6. Echo Orchid - [Whisper Zone] Flowers shaped like musical instruments, creating haunting melodies in wind currents. Pollinated by Songweaver Birds.
  7. Mist Fern - [Shadow Zone] Ground-level plants that generate a constant light fog, providing cover for Shadow Prowlers and other ground-dwelling creatures.
  8. Windhollow Tree - [Whisper Zone] Trees with numerous small cavities perfect for animal habitation. Houses Breezewing Lizard colonies and provides shelter during storms.
  9. Nightshade Fruit - [Shadow Zone] Bioluminescent fruits growing in the Shadow Zone. Primary food source for Windwhisper Bats and attracts nocturnal insects.
  10. Whisperleaf Palm - [Shadow & Whisper Zone] Broad-leaved plants whose leaves create distinct sounds in different wind speeds, used by natives to predict weather.

All these species rely on the Sky Wells' wind currents for various aspects of their lifecycle, from seed dispersal to hunting strategies. The continuous air flow between zones creates a dynamic ecosystem where species have evolved to take advantage of their zone's unique wind patterns while also utilizing the vertical connections provided by the Sky Wells. During seasonal changes, many species migrate between zones using these natural wind tunnels, creating complex annual cycles of life and movement throughout the forest layers.
