Land Coral[edit]

Several Bioluminescent, possibly sentient Land Coral

Land Coral is a bizarre, bioluminescent, and possibly sentient coral species that grows on land. They can very rarely be found on land along the Inner Sea on both inner Morrowind and Vvardenfell. They come shaped as Antler Coral of a variety of sizes, with the potential to grow large enough to tower above the landscape. They give off a natural firelike bioluminescent glow.

Land Dreugh[edit]

A land dreugh

Crab-like creatures that are a common but dangerous target for hunters after their armored hide and the unique wax from their shells. Sometimes called "billies", Land Dreugh are more aggressive and territorial than aquatic Dreugh. The Land Dreugh is often thought to be a unique stage in the life-cycle of the normally aquatic dreugh, which undergo karvinasim for a single year and emerge onto land to breed.[1]. After the year of karvinasim, the dreugh return to the sea, shedding their air organs in a process known as meff.[2] However, other scholars are of the opinion that Land Dreugh are a completely separate species, only distantly related to the intelligent aquatic Dreugh.

Found in:


A lich

Liches are undead necromancers which have embraced the power of lichdom, the most sophisticated form of Undeath. It is commonly done by transferring their soul into an object called a 'Phylactery', which is usually a jar or a chest. They are more often than not selfish and power-hungry, destroying all in their searches for souls to repair the Phylactery. Extremely intelligent and powerful, a commonly held myth is that if the Phylactery is destroyed the lich will also be destroyed; however, the Phylactery simply serves as a vessel during the transference, and once the necromancer has transcended the Phylactery is of no consequence. A weaker variant of lich is the Nether Lich, which can appear spectral in comparison to a normal lich.

A Lizard-Steed

Lizard Steeds are useful lizards shaped by the Hist to look like large animals commonly used as mounts by the people of Tamriel. The Hist shaped them as such to allow the Argonian people to travel long distances in the swamps. Horses, wolves and the like are not suited for long travel through the deep swamp, but lizard steeds are. Furry mounts can get stuck in the mud, catch sloughskin from fleshflies or eat poisonous flora and die. Lizard steeds do not.[4]

A Lurcher


Found in:


A lurker

Lurkers are large daedric creatures that come from the murky waters of Apocrypha. They appear as tall, amphibious humanoids with gaping mouths and needle-like teeth.[5] They have what appears to be armor or thick scales lining their lower arms and legs.[5] They serve Hermaeus Mora by guarding forbidden knowledge.[6] As their name may suggest, they lurk beneath the roiling pools of creatia in their master's realm, and may surface if they detect trespassers.[7] Lurkers use their long legs to stamp down on trespassers, and can attack from afar by spewing tentacles from their mouths.[8] Additionally, they can spit acid from their mouths.[8] Their flesh has regenerative properties, allowing them to heal when they are attacked.[8] Lurkers are resistant to poison.[8]
