I'm sure this has been asked before, but what are the Ornyx based on?

My best guess, but only the artist knows for sure. It's a Rusingoryx.

Oooh, I've never heard of those before. They look really cool

[Sitamun]

Hi,
I miss this token: Koi fish look regal even when hewn from dark stones.
Anybody know where to find?

In the first post:

Spoiler

A light rain has begun to fall, and the people preparing to head into the marshes around you suddenly begin to disperse, some cracking whips to lead their steeds hurriedly onto their journeys and some packing up wagons and pulling up tarps. Overhead, another magi takes off, the huge wings of their Roc blotting out the clouds for a moment.

"What's going on?" you ask, and a Quaitu man shakes his head, hefting his bag on his shoulder.

"Bad weather," he calls to you over his shoulder as he heads back into the city. "Drizzle at this time of day means a storm later. The marshes will flood - it's too dangerous for most."

You frown. Surely it couldn't be that dangerous. You see that some of the people getting ready to explore, though, are banding together, strangers from different parts of the world going in groups to avoid any danger.

Wait in the city and see what happens.
Go ahead on your own. A little rain never hurt anyone.
Team up with a group for a while.

Wait in the city and see what happens.
It takes nearly an hour, but the rains worsen and then subside. You begin your journey, avoiding puddles as you go.

Go ahead on your own. A little rain never hurt anyone.
The rains are fierce as you travel, and before you know it the path has flooded. Heart pounding, you freeze in place, praying that the waters rise no higher than your knees.

No such luck. In desperation, you look around and spot a tree branch, hoisting yourself up. You wait out the rains, watching as debris floats past you. The marshes are more treacherous than you thought.

In as short a time as the rain began, it ends, and the waters recede slowly. Hopping down from the tree, you notice an object lodged in the mud. You reach out and grab it before continuing. In your hand, you realize it's a carving of a fish, like one of the Keep's koi.

Finally got the last token. I've only gotten that particular choice path once before today and I forgot about the token the first time.

[Niverdia]

/wonders if the tokens will have any further use in the future
I'm mainly doing this every day only to try for the last token, as I'm, sadly, not fond of any of these creature sprites.

[Chess]

Wow, this is so cool! I like how it's a "choose your own adventure" type thing. The sprites look great as well.

[NyxNoire]

I think I have a problem. I simply cannot resist those Nicoris. Army.

Theory:

If you pick more of each message by position, you'll be likely to get a corresponding critter? For example if you keep picking the middle option you'll get a Nicori.

I did that because I'm lazy and got an Ornyx for both clicking all the first and second options, and the Nicori for all the thirds.

If that's helpful at all.
