Beyond this point lie major spoilers for Fallen London, Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies, or Mask of the Rose. This may include endgame or major Fate-locked spoilers. Proceed at your own risk. You can find out more about our spoiler policy here. |
The world is home to myriad forms of flora and fauna, from the familiar lands of the Surface to the dark caverns of the Neath to the winding possibilities of Parabola to the icy winds of the High Wilderness. The following is a bestiary of these creatures, and is currently UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
Assorted Animals
The animals of the Neath aren't usually all too different from their Surface counterparts, but they're often much more intelligent for one, and some can even talk. A few species can even form societies of their own, which may coexist or even compete with human ones.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Rattus Faber Rattus Faber, also called L.B.s, are sapient rats known for their cunning and skills in engineering. They're also known for regularly causing trouble for the residents of Fallen London.

Spiders in the Neath are often bigger and more dangerous than those on the Surface. The owner of the Blind Helmsman over at Wolfstack Docks runs a spider-pit, where patrons can place their bets in a free-for-all on a spider of their choosing. Such tournaments are, however, technically illegal.[2] The reigning champion of these tournaments is Florence, the Stackside Spinner. This spider uses her vicious, poisoned cobwebs to ensnare and neutralize her foes, as well as her powerful speed and dexterity to always prevail in the long game. Such skill is to be expected of a frequent victor, of course.[3] Millie, the Moloch Street Mangler, is an enormous spider with a hook for one of her legs. She uses powerful charges and her massive size to vanquish her foes, and is strong enough to fling a spider into the air and out of the ring by herself.[4][3] Daphne, the Graveside Creeper, is a spider who was supposedly raised on the blood of tomb-colonists. She may be slower than the competition, but she's known for her resilience; in fact, she's rumored to be impossible to kill![5] Alonzo, Scourge of the Marshes, is the underdog of the spider-rings. He may seem weak given his diminutive size, but his venom is said to burn holes in lead; this venom is even capable of making smaller spiders explode in puffs of sulphur, and even larger spiders don't stand a chance against well-placed bites.[6] The faraway Kingdom of Vesture, located deep within the Elder Continent, has a fair share of arachnids as well. Vesture's economy is primarily based on silkweaving,[7] so each palace in Vesture contains an enormous spider-matriarch. These matriarchs provide their palaces with silks for making textiles, and they're generally treated with utmost respect. When a matriarch grows weary, its replacement is sourced from a nearby cobwebbed forest as a larva; because of this practice of stealing their young, the spiders of the forest have a long-standing distrust of Vesture's citizens.[8]

Main article: Tigers Tigers are sapient felines from the Elder Continent. They can speak human languages, and possess substantial political influence in the Neath.
| ||

Weasels are more or less outwardly identical to their Surface counterparts, though they display a limited degree of sapience like many other of the Neath's animals. They're capable of singing popular tunes,[11] playing card and parlor games,[12] and specially trained weasels were once used by agents of the Great Game for an unknown purpose.[13] Weasels have recently become popular pets in Fallen London, given their natural preference for the underground and their relative cleanliness. Weasel-sellers peddle these creatures throughout the streets of Spite, and they may train their weasels to attack anyone who tries to accost them.[10] Weasels are also eaten as delicacies by certain individuals and factions, such as Urchins,[14] Tigers,[15] and apparently the Boatman himself.[16] On occasion, Londoners pit weasels against each other in tournaments of weasels, played in weasel-pits;[17][18] this sport is often played a bit more seriously than one would expect.[19] These tournaments are reported in the Fighting Weasel Digest,[20] and ravens are known for their apparent oracular abilities in predicting these tournaments' outcomes, though this practice is considered cheating.[21][19] Certain weasels are even bred for this purpose;[22] Araby Fighting-Weasels are a bronze-furred,[23] powerful breed specially trained to fight in weasel-pits,[22] and are known for their cunning and proud disposition.[24] Unfortunately, like all sports, tournaments of weasels suffer from their fair share of cheaters, including an apparent case of weasel-doping.[25] The Ancient and Honorable Company of Weasel-Fanciers are a group of renowned weasel enthusiasts who regularly send their weasels out to battle Rattus Faber.[26] They notably hand out prizes to weasels who display amazing skill, elegance, and manners,[27] though they dislike participants who game the playing field using selective breeding.[28] Lucky Weasels are weasels that are renowned for their exceptional luck; this unfortunately does not imply that they bring others luck.[29] Salt Weasels are an extremely rare variety of weasel that originate north of Fallen London in the Pale Wastes; these weasels are known for their relative guilelessness,[30] and are unfortunately hunted for their valuable fur.[31] The performers of Mahogany Hall frequently use weasels as part of their performances, putting the animals in high demand in the area.[32] But a particular tune in Mahogany Hall may cause the poor creatures grievous harm...[33]

In The Company of Monsters
The Neath is home to far more than ordinary animals, however, and many of these creatures have more to them than meets the eye.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Knot-oracles, also called Ocular Toadbeasts, are giant, toad-like creatures with several long tongues and eyes simply everywhere.[35] These creatures reside near the prison of Wisdom, where they're used to thwart escape attempts - and execute prisoners - by eating any prisoner they can reach.[36][37] While their diet partly consists of humans, knot-oracles can eat just about anything,[38] with a notable appetite for secrets, both written and memorized.[39][40] Knot-oracles that have eaten people are capable of speaking human languages, and they also absorb parts of their victim's memories. To this end, the Governor of Wisdom regularly feeds hapless prisoners to knot-oracles to fund the profitable secret-trade.[37] Knot-oracle spawn are usually no larger than a thumb, and are called oraclelets. Like their adult counterparts, they still retain the tendency to unnervingly stare.[41] The eyes of Ocular Toadbeasts are quite strange; they may reflect the things the Toadbeast has witnessed,[42] and as might be expected of something with so many eyes, they are capable of tracking four creatures at a time. Should all of a knot-oracle's eyes focus on a creature at once, however, that poor thing's days are numbered. Some have suggested that the Toadbeast can prophesize deaths as a result of this strange behavior, but it seems more likely that the beast kills these victims itself.[43]

Main article: Blemmigans Blemmigans are sentient mushrooms with powerful beaks and a penchant for poetry. Propagate!
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
False-Snakes are creatures with superficially serpentine bodies, but are otherwise very different from actual snakes. They are dark blue and scaleless,[45] and apparently reside deep underground, with pointed jaws and facial tentacles below their eyes used to burrow through the dirt.[46][45] Like many other animals that live in extreme darkness, their eyes are also recognizably sightless.[45] They also seem to possess a second pair of jaws within their exterior mouths.[47] The bodies of False-Snakes have an adverse reaction to light, emitting vibrant pink toxins upon exposure.[48] These toxins can melt even stone, and may be released when exposed to the light of the Neathbow as well. Whether this is some form of defense mechanism against predators, or perhaps against light itself, is unknown.[49] Apparently, False-Snakes are a relative of frogs and other amphibians,[50]; many supposedly ancient False-Snakes were found west of London in the Hinterlands, their corpses preserved in a strange, icy marsh. Whether or not these creatures still roam the Neath today is unknown.[51]
| ||
Humanoids
There are many beings in the Neath who appear to have humanoid forms. These beings may be former humans themselves, or are something else entirely.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Humans Humans are medium-sized creatures prone to great ambition.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Clay Men Clay Men are golem-like beings that hail from the faraway island of Polythreme. Clay Men that lack a certain body part are called Unfinished Men.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Devils Devils are mysterious beings that outwardly appear as impeccably-styled humans... from another time period. However, there might be more to them than meets the eye.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Drownies Drownies are drowned humans, resurrected under mysterious circumstances, that lurk throughout the depths of the Unterzee.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Rubbery Men Rubbery Men are humanoid beings with the faces of squid. Squid!
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Snuffers Snuffers are humanoid creatures that like to rip people's faces off and use them as their own.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Starved Men Starved Men are humans who partook extensively in the Shapeling Arts, transforming themselves into something beyond human. | ||
Zee-Monsters
The Unterzee is practically overflowing with creatures and monsters unlike any on the Surface. These beasts are called zee-monsters, and many are (relatively) docile unless someone crosses into their territory, but others may attack with little to no provocation. Preparing for these encounters is an important priority for any zailing crew worth its salt, lest their proud ship be reduced to scraps of rusted metal and devoured bodies.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Albino Morays (one may infer the existence of a regular-colored moray) are large, notoriously ugly eel-like creatures that hunt across the Unterzee.[60][61] Albino Morays are deceptively fast, can charge their prey at dizzying speeds,[60] and possess sharp hooked teeth; however, they're not just dangerous while alive: their skin is tough, smells awful, and is coated in a poisonous, paralyzing slime.[62] Despite all these dangers, some particularly adventurous tomb-colonists may allow an Albino Moray to swallow them whole; the Moray's internal secretions are apparently quite good for the skin.[63] You know what they say: when you're zailing the zee, and an eel makes you flee... that's a moray.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Angler Crabs are enormous crustaceans with two glowing antennae, like the lures of anglerfish,[65] and glowing, blueish blood.[66] They come in three known varieties: the reddish Western Angler Crab, the blueish Eastern Angler Crab, and the weary Elder Angler Crab. Despite their similarity to anglerfish, Angler Crabs do not use their luminescent appendages to lure in prey patiently. Instead, they hunt their prey the same way any other zee-crab would: with swiftness and ferocity.[64]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Auroral Megalops are large crustaceans with glowing golden bodies that roam the Unterzee.[68] These specimens are apparently juveniles of their species and possess blue blood;[69][68] uniquely for their species, they also possess large, non-vestigial eyes.[69] Megalops meat is edible but often unstable and difficult to store.[70] Apparently, these crabs were driven from their southern spawning grounds by a mysterious radiance,[67] which may be none other than the Dawn Machine.[71]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Behemoustaches are massive fish with absolutely glorious moustaches,[72] and they're aggressive predators that favor the warmer waters of the Unterzee.[73] The meat of a Behemoustache is edible, their bones are used in making corsets, and their moustaches make excellent trophies.[72]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Blue Prophets are an unusual type of bird native to the Elder Continent.[74] A single Prophet is about as threatening as an average large parrot, but in flocks they can be vicious. Their feathers are sky-blue and are considered rather valuable, especially in London and the Khanate,[75] but unfortunately, their value has dropped due to recent supply increases.[76] Blue Prophets receive their title from the belief that they speak the names of those about to die. It's difficult to tell whether or not this is true or superstition, since they mostly seem to utter squawks, but seasoned zailors still try to pick out familiar names in their calls regardless.[77]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Bound-Sharks are enormous sharks that have been bound by implanted metallic rods, mechanisms and cages. Because of their bindings, the shark's internal organs have become almost entirely reshaped into an unrecognizable mess, causing the poor shark a great deal of agony - not that this makes the sharks any less dangerous to passing zailors.[79][80] These bindings are also said to have mysterious secrets and truths engraved on them, though this may also just be baseless zee-gossip.[81] The bindings that torment Bound Sharks are not the work of nature, nor are they the creation of any supernatural entity. Rather, these contraptions are man-made, and are manufactured and inserted into the sharks by the New Sequence;[82] these Sequencers capture and bind sharks at the Grand Geode,[83] which also houses a shark-nursery.[84] Why these people subject the hapless sharks to such torture is unknown, but it may have something to do with invoking a feeling of pathos for the tormented beasts, or maybe reminding a person of their own chains, increasing one's susceptibility to the light of the Dawn Machine.[85]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Jillyfish are enormous jellyfish-like creatures that roam the Unterzee, known for their luminescent purple glow and extremely poisonous tentacles.[87][88] Their seemingly soft caps are actually hardened, allowing them to ram ships with dangerous amounts of force,[88] and parts of their bodies may be surprisingly edible.[89] Interestingly, the caps of these creatures appear to have a woman's face imprinted on them; this face resembles the giant shrine-face of Visage, the Flourishing-of-Years. Some zailors report that this face may even be able to speak, perhaps of "home."[90]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Jillyfleur are jellyfish-like creatures that may be juvenile jillyfish, a subspecies, or something else entirely.[91] Like their larger counterparts, they possess leather-tough flesh,[92] limited edibility,[93] and the same, mysterious face on their caps.[94]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
It's a well-known fact that icebergs don't usually move on their own, destroy ships, kill crewmen,[96] or speak.[95] The Lifebergs of the northern Unterzee, for some godforsaken reason, do all of these things. Lifebergs are known for their homicidal nature; they ruthlessly hunt down and destroy unfortunate ships,[97][96] and may display a limited degree of sentience - in the form of malice,[95] or even cunning.[98] Lifebergs may also be covered in strange crevasses that are apparently capable of speech,[95] and they may hoard the treasures of their past victims for unknown reasons.[99] Lifebergs produce, or may eat, a wax-like substance called hell-droppings, which are known for being highly flammable.[99] Furthermore, London has a fair share of Lifeberg-hunters, who use specialized ships,[100] cannons, and weapons called great-rods to destroy Lifebergs with professional efficiency.[101] The nature of their work and their sullen temperaments means that these Lifeberg-hunters often go unthanked,[102] but their efforts do contribute to London's paraffin and mineral trade.[103] Within each Lifeberg is a shard of black glass reminiscent of Mt Nomad,[104] and these beings will not die permanently unless this black glass is destroyed or stolen.[105] Could these facts imply that Mt Nomad is in fact their creator or progenitor?
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Lorn-Flukes Lorn-Flukes are some of greatest threats to the ships of the Unterzee. These beings are aggressive towards any ship that passes by, ramming it with their spikes. They can also speak the Correspondence, making even the bravest zailors shudder with fear.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Milliner Bats are quite average as far as bats go - except that they're covered in sky-blue feathers, applied with glue of all things, making them similar in appearance to Blue Prophets.[108] Their swarms are just as dangerous as Blue Prophet flocks, however, and the bats seem to be localized to the Southern Wall near Varchas.[109] But how did these bats get their feathers? Did they steal them?[107] Were they the project of a mad bat-farmer? No matter; the feathers sell well, from bat or bird.[108]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Serpentus sirenesis,[111] also called siren-serpents,[112] are serpentine creatures with sharp teeth,[113] bullet-resistant skin,[114] and maws large enough to rip a boat in two.[115] These serpents are especially infamous for their tendency to disguise their tails as alluring, humanoid apparitions, and the fact that they have a specialized organ that can produce human-like calls.[111] For this reason, the siren-serpent is also known vulgarly as Neptune's Harlot.[112] Siren-serpents lay their eggs on suitable rock formations,[114] and young siren-serpents are known as Harlot-Fry. Notably, even hatchling siren-serpents possess extremely sharp teeth.[116]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Strange moths are nothing new for denizens of the Neath, especially for those who've stayed in the Tomb-Colonies for a time. But the vicious moths that lurk near the Ragged Crow's guiding light can leave even the hardiest Neath-dweller at a loss for words. These Tyrant-Moths are immense, with wings the size of a ship's sails, and are strong enough to destroy sails if they're not fought off in time.[118] However, being moths, they still may remain susceptible to other tempting lights.[119] Tyrant-Moths are a delicacy in certain far-off places, such as Whither, where their antennae are prepared in a... delightful dish called tyrant's treat. Keeping this dish down without careful consumption, however, is often as difficult as fighting the beasts themselves.[120] Given their size, mysterious nature, and destructive behavior, Tyrant-Moths are naturally the subjects of many myths and stories. Their wing patterns are said to resemble maps of the skies, or perhaps something more: charming visions of faraway gardens, winged creatures from all walks of life, or maybe the light flowing from within a glowing mountain. However, looking at these patterns too closely or for far too long may be risky.[117] There's also a legend that Tyrant-Moths' bodies are full of sapphires, but obtaining these gems is easier said than done.[121] The most mysterious tale of all, however, speaks of a time when a foolhardy zailor whispered to Salt, and a Tyrant-Moth answered...[122]

Deep Zee-Monsters
Did you really think that diving below the Unterzee's black waves would save you from its denizens? If anything, the monsters that roam the zee-floor are even more dangerous than their surface-swimming counterparts.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Beloved are strange fish that roam the depths of the Unterzee, infamous for their grating calls and piercing whistles.[124] Their meat is notably palatable, unlike the repulsive flesh of other zee-monsters,[125] but their bodies may not be a product of nature; rather, Beloved appear stitched, patched up, and reassembled, evoking a suspicion of human fabrication.[126]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Boundlings are unfortunate fish bound by metal cages and rods, similar in construction to the devices that torment Bound-Sharks.[128] Their bodies are so distorted that it's unclear what type of fish they were originally, but they seem to resemble extremely large, warped tuna.[129]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
The Constant Companion is an enormous monster that scours the depths of the Unterzee. These beasts can sense fear like a shark can smell blood, and they aggressively pursue any underwater interloper with a particularly strong scent.[131] Their carapaces are also harder than steel, and broken-off pieces may continue to fidget and emit ethereal noises even after the creature's death.[132][133] Anatomically speaking, these creatures possess ten legs, frontal pedipalps,[134] powerful mandibles,[135] greenish blood, and bodies covered in hair,[132][134] giving them an appearance comparable to a monstrously large spider. Like many species of spider, the Constant Companion carries its large, yellowish young on its body; these grubs appear weak, but they may display dangerous amounts of combat prowess, and ingenuity, should they face imminent danger.[136]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Dawn Flukes Dawn Flukes are Flukes who fell in thrall to the Dawn Machine, transforming their bodies in mysterious ways.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Lornest Flukes Lornest Flukes are Flukes who roam the blackest depths of the Unterzee, possessing a massive eye in place of a core.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Neither are extremely mysterious creatures that roam the depths of the Unterzee. These creatures have bodies that appear more fluid than flesh, and they're capable of generating powerful vortices in their death throes, engulfing and drowning anyone who gets too close.[140] The darkness of these vortices may also invoke visions of a faraway place: a night sky, a dense jungle, and strange, many-fingered creatures.[139]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Thalatte are biological peculiarities that roam the depths of the Unterzee. Apparently, these creatures possess a "beaked mouth", a "hooked sucker-maw", a "double handful of maxillipeds," and an uncountable number of other mismatched organs.[141] Their meat is also notorious for being extremely foul, and can drive a person to madness if not processed correctly. Part of this process apparently involves a full nine-hour boil.[142]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
That Which Makes Light In The Deeps is an exceptionally mysterious zee-monster that roams the depths of the Unterzee. These creatures can produce light bright enough to boil zeewater,[143] and they possess razor-sharp teeth that are tougher than steel.[144] Each Monster-Hunter must slay one during their initiation ceremonies, and their peligin flesh is later consumed, transforming the Hunter into something beyond human.[145]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Triskelegants are strange, triangular-shaped creatures that roam the depths of the Unterzee, notable for their ability to rotate extremely quickly,[147] generating maelstroms strong enough to damage the hulls of ships.[146] As their name might perhaps suggest, these creatures have three mouths, each one located on a "corner" of their bodies.[147]
| ||
Parabolan Wildlife
Parabola is a vast realm located beyond the mirrors, operating on the volatile and inconsistent logic of dreams. It has its fair share of native species, many of which resemble bizarre and unique variations of Surface or Neathy, and these creatures may possess strange supernatural powers.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Aureate Stags are majestic animals that reside within the Oncewood of Parabola – famed for being among the fastest steeds behind the mirror.[149] These stags have golden pelts, soft skin, and antlers that glow like a massive candle flame or pyre.[150] They can be formidable opponents in combat, repelling strikes with their antlers and hooves, and attacking foes with powerful bites and kicks.[151] Aureate Stags can be tamed, and their handlers resemble animated golden statues, carrying orbs and shepherd's crooks cast into their hands.[152] These creatures usually consume oats,[153] but they're also capable of consuming enemy weapons when necessary, emitting golden smoke from their ears upon doing so.[154] Certain Aureate Stags have silver coats, midnight eyes, and broken antlers that emit light with a unique, moonish tinge. Unfortunately, these silver stags are the runts of their groups, and are significantly weaker than their golden counterparts.[155] Not that such stags are completely lacking in value, of course.[156] | ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Fingerkings Fingerkings are powerful serpentine creatures that reside behind the mirrors in Parabola. They are the aristocratic rulers of the dream-snakes, who do not exist.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: The Storm-bird The Storm-bird is a mysterious avian being that roams the wastes of Parabola, known for saving dreamers from their own debilitating nightmares.
| ||
Shapelings
Shapelings are mysterious creatures that hail from the lost planet of Axile. Londoners may recognize the Rubbery Men, and seasoned zailors may recognize the Lorn-Fluke, Dawn Fluke, and Lornest Fluke, but there exist other, less well-known shapelings, many of which roam the amber-encrusted depths of Flute Street.
| ||
|---|---|---|
Eye-scuttlers are mysterious shapelings that once roamed the pools of Axile. They acted as servants for the Rubbery Men during this time,[160] and based on their name, they presumably had eyes on their feet.[161] Not much else is known about these beings, and it's unclear whether they ever left Axile at all, but they may be the original owners of the Meticulously Altered Stockings.[161]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Flukes Flukes are sea urchin-like creatures that reside in Flute Street. They're ill-tempered, cannot breathe air, and might range from tiny lumps to the size of a large pumpkin.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Main article: Moon-misers Moon-misers are strange, insectoid creatures that reside on the roof of the Neath. They emit large amounts of light from their perches, so Londoners often call them the false-stars.
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
Rubbery Cats are feline shapelings commonly found near Ealing Gardens.[165] Their behavior is similar to ordinary cats,[166] and they possess the ability to slip through tight spaces and crevasses undected.[167] Despite not being a typical variety of cat, Morally and Physically Flexible Rubbery Cats still possess a distaste for Fingerkings, though it's possible that this is simply a result of the Rubbery Cats' lack of scruples towards any perceived threat.[168]
| ||
| ||
|---|---|---|
The Rubbery Hound is a doglike shapeling that roams in the depths of Flute Street. It's about the size of a wolf, but apparently very young, and it has two black teeth under its facial tentacles. This creature was apparently created in the amber and steel chambers of Flute Street, though it's unknown if its unique anatomy was an accident or not.[170] Rubbery Hounds exhibit many typical canine behaviors, like playing with bones or begging for food,[171][172] but they also have an inexplicable fondness for candles. Furthermore, they possess a unique worldliness and are able to communicate through oblique means; apparently, they possess a fear of the dark and the "Great Light", a love for justice, and positive feelings towards the other shapers.[173]
| ||
Sky-Beasts
The expanses of the High Wilderness are teeming with life, most of which is either capable of flight, or seeking the means to. The skyfarers of New London may have their sky-locomotives armed to the teeth with weapons, but even then, they are often still threatened by powerful sky-beasts.
