List of Fablehaven's Magical Creatures - Other Creatures

Other Creatures

Several other magical creatures are described throughout the books. The books do not identify them by name or species, but they are worth mentioning here. They are categorized here by location seen. More creatures are seen at these locations, but if they are identified, they will be listed above.

Midsummer Eve

• 12 foot flying centipede with 6 wings, and 6 taloned feet
• brutish monster with a pronounced underbite and plates down its spine

Released with Bahumat

• toadlike monstrosity
• scabby beast with a white mane
• demonic dwarf with a hide of black scales
• greasy creature that looked like a turtle without a shell, and coughed globs of slime, possibly a Bunyip

Vanessa's collection

• colorful lizard with three eyes that can see slightly into the future, possibly the Tuatara

• dark man who was human from the waist up and a spider from the waist down (possibly Anansi)

Artifact guardians

• Fablehaven - A black monster cat with 9 lives. The cat started out as a simple black cat -- friendly at first -- until Warren removed the key hanging around its neck. Then it became fierce but easy to kill. The dead cat melted and reformed into a larger, meaner feline. Each incarnation is larger than the previous, more vicious, and more difficult to kill. The second life is just a larger version of the first incarnation. The third had tufted ears and was simillar to a lynx but just as big and with disproportionately large paws and claws. The fourth life was a larger, beefed up version of the lynx, both quicker and nastier. For the fifth life the cat resembled a panther -- more patient and deadly. The sixth life was as big as a tiger. During the seventh life the cat became more deformed. It was as tall as a horse with dagger claws and saber-tooth fangs. It also had four writhing serpents growing out of its shoulders. The eighth life was much larger than a horse, had no snakes, but two heads that spit a sludge--like acid. For the ninth and final life, the cat was truly a monster. It was enormous, with large wings, and twelve serpents coming out of its shoulders. It had three tails and three heads, that spit acid like the eighth, but more. It took a giant sized Tanu to defeat the final life of this nine-lived guardian monster.
• Lost Mesa - Patton Burgess described it as a troop of ghostly knights, and that it was a battle he would rather forget. Tammy also mentioned a beast that was covered with so many knives, they looked like feathers, could be Achiyalatopa.

She threatened to turn Seth into an undead sailor, until Seth, with the aid of Vasilis, convinced her to safely sail them to Shoreless Isle. She is the captain of the Lady Luck.

Shorelss Isle/Demond Prison:

• several creatures come out of the prison, described in the text as:

'Some walked on two legs, some on four, some on six. Others slithered. Others jumped. Others rolled. Others had wings. Some had horns, or tentacles, or shells, or scales, or quills, or fur. Many wore armor and bore weapons. Some had heads like dragons, others like jackals, panthers, humans or incects. Several stood larger than Hugo. A few lounged on litters borne by underlings.'
