I drew some more animals native to the Underworld! Hybrikes are equivalent to reptilian wildcats: they're aggressive, wild carnivores. The job of animal tamer Nightmares (such as Thorex) are to keep creatures like these from invading on civilization, and while they try their best to do so peacefully, it sometimes ends in exterminations. Underworld settlements aren't nearly as detached from the wild as human communities are. Fofur are selectively bred to be as small, fluffy, and charmingly adorable as possible, like designer-breed dogs in the human world. They have a great temper, but unfortunately, they're rare, very hard to breed, and are generally only gifted to high-class Nightmares. There are two different kinds of Mogrins: pets/companions and farm animals. They can be domesticated and kept around the house like a big dog, or raised to be used as food, like cattle. "Cattle" Mogrins are generally fattened up so external fat bodies begin to form, which are then surgically harvested and stored. They can be eaten straight, and they're kind of like meat gummies: the inside is filled with a nutritious gel that the creature absorbs when it's low on food. However, they can also be stewed and eaten that way, or the gel can be extracted, heated, and eaten like soup.
