List of Animals of The Edge Chronicles - F

F

• Firemoth - Venomous moths that live in the Gardens of Light, but sometimes go outside into the forest.
• Flat-head goblin - Flat-head goblins are characterised by their flat, narrow heads. Flat-heads have notoriously bad tempers and are very aggressive and warlike. In many civilized places (i.e. Sanctaphrax or Undertown) they are used as guards. They are often used as deck-warriors by sky pirates. Despite this, not all Flat-heads are depicted as violent, particularly in The Immortals which is set in the more civillised Third age. Notable flat-heads include Sagbutt of the Galerider, Captain Sigbord of the Sanctaphrax Treasury Guard, Mugbutt of the Stormchaser, and Bogwit of Vilnix Pompolnious' elite bodyguard and, later, the Edgedancer.
• Flitterwaif - Flying waifs. Unlike many waifs, these creatures are actively carnivorous, and lead beings astray. They have, like all waifs, huge batlike ears, but also have wings and three curved fangs.
• Fromp - In Sanctaphrax, they are used for fighting against each other, while the academics betted on them. They mistreat and starve them so they would no longer be friendly creatures and fight. They have a stripy prehensile tail, curving claws, a long proboscis like a butterfly, and rabbitlike ears. Known for their comical, spluttered warning cough.
• Fourthling - The equivalent of humans, and indeed almost identical to them except for their pointed ears. They are capable of interbreeding with other bipedal races. Seldom seen and often unknown in the Deepwoods. They are so named because they are related to creatures from all four corners of the Edge.
