Release Info

A new pet collection system, Little Ephemera, is now available in all instances.

To get started, head over to Zenastara's Magical Curios in Aesry Surlaenis'a. Purchase a crystalline fibril for 5 platinum Lirums, and once it's properly prepared, you will have access to a new verb: EPHEMERON. From there, you will be able to begin your search for ephemera to capture.

What can one do with ephemera, you ask? For now, you can collect them and show them in your LOOK. (They cannot battle yet; that's going to be a future expansion of the system.)

In this initial release, there are 54 capturable ephemera which may be found in different areas across Elanthia. Good luck!

Ephemera Info

Each Ephemera will have its own wiki page, once all the properties/templates/forms are defined.

List of Ephemera

Name	Rarity	Class	Energy	Description
Amorphous jade-green chimera	rare	extraplanar	divine	As with all things antinomic, this many-shaped, many-souled divinity carries with it an insidious peril: It is absolutely outside the vast perception, even comprehension, of the Immortals.
Anloral-adorned dolphin	uncommon	beast	divine	Although dolphins of all kinds are often trained by the Merelew who cherish them, some of Eluned's chosen have been known to find and carry holy anloral stones.
Biter (ephemeron)	uncommon	beast	primal	The adult form of a beisswurm, the Biter is a fearsome reptilian beast perpetually shrouded in a cloud of frost.
Blackfire lion	rare	extraplanar	primal
Blight maggot	common	beast	sylvan	The blight maggot looks like a giant leech. Its slimy surface glistens with a disgusting black ooze, with intermittent eruptions of sickly yellow pus. The repulsive beast leaps to and fro with frightening speed, seemingly uninterested in the crawling of its smaller brethren.
Cancrine blood puppet	common	undead	psychic	The puppet is nothing more than a crawling sac of blood with ten near-vestigial legs.
Causal aberration	rare	extraplanar	psychic	When this teleologic monstrosity encounters Moon Mages, it makes them weep with existential sorrow. When it encounters living concepts of the Plane of Probability, it devours, digesting them into impossibilities and unborn abstractions.
Chocolate welkin	common	fae	divine
Conifer-cone spawn	common	construct	sylvan	Byproducts of an Awaken Forest spell gone awry, these benign little constructs are encountered in most coniferous forests.
Coralite-armored guardian cuttlefish	limited	beast	psychic	Drylanders were not the only ones fascinated by the momentous starfalls that marked Hollow Eve. Beneath the sea, a particular kind of cuttlefish was drawn to the glowing iron fragments and in turn changed by their cold power. The Merelew now consider these small but intelligent cephalopods to be valuable allies, trading with them and even entrusting them with the guarding of places of import.
Damaryn pearlfae	common	fae	divine
Darkmist shade	common	undead	demonic	Ethereal and sinuous, the swirling strands of the darkmist shade approximate a Human form, flickering with a distinct volatility.
Deep red dragon hatchling	uncommon	draconic	primal
Drogorian temple moray	common	beast	unattuned	Often cared for by the priests of Halasa Temple, these vivid orange-white eels are endemic to the waters of Cha'walkas.
Dust howler	common	construct	primal	The byproduct of a careless craftsmage, the howler resembles a cross between a capuchin and a sandcastle. Steadily falling apart, the poorly designed creation seeks dust and debris to maintain its mass.
Electric kitten	common	beast	primal	Chunky and dazzlingly blue, these nascent elementals are said to evolve into seordmaors as they gain power.
Elusive taffelberry welkin	uncommon	fae	divine	These plump black fae, with their reddish purple hands and face, are associated with bountiful taffelberry harvests. They also consume shocking quantities of the berries themselves.
Eyestalk glider	uncommon	extraplanar	demonic	A single large fleshy orb slung between wet, membranous wings, the glider stays aloft with gentle flaps and an attention to air currents, almost resembling a butterfly in flight. The eye bears several pupils of various morphologies, from dual slit to rectangular, each darting around chaotically.
Flame cockatrice	uncommon	beast	primal
Fledgling dyrtais ensha	limited	beast	primal	No bigger than a hawk, the fledgling surveys the area with golden, predatory eyes. Still the mottled brown of youth, only the barest tinges of the brilliant crimson coloring shows as the baby bird puffs its tawny down, which sheds sparks and shimmers with heat. When agitated, the creature shrieks and flaps its tiny wings, crackling with electricity and bursts of rain and frost. Said to originate from lands beyond the Waste and Eastern Ocean, the dyrtais ensha radiates potential power and the looming force of storms.
Flower sprite	common	fae	sylvan
Gestalt draugen (ephemeron)	uncommon	undead	unattuned
Gold-green Garden scarab	uncommon	beast	psychic	Like a living jewel, the shiny insect's carapace is unnaturally faceted and bears tiny, rune-like markings.
Haloed lemicule idol	common	construct	divine	This was once a lumpy, soft green statuette for use in rituals to the Thirteen, now come alive with all the worship it has absorbed over the years.
Idopun pearlfae	common	fae	unattuned
Iridescent dragon hatchling	uncommon	draconic	divine
Jeweled mosaic effigy	common	construct	psychic	After the Negotiants arrived with their contractual boon of magic, some Traders took to experimenting with animated crystals.
Lacustrine nyad	common	fae	primal
Living geode	common	extraplanar	primal
Maeldryth (ephemeron)	uncommon	extraplanar	demonic
Maelshyvean soulshard	rare	extraplanar	demonic	A mostly inert vestige, the soulshard nonetheless seethes with Maelshyve's essence and fury-filled memories.
Melted soulstone slug	uncommon	construct	demonic	This defiled piece of soulstone pulsates and wriggles about, resembling nothing so much as an evil, particularly loathsome mollusk.
Murderous doll	uncommon	humanoid	psychic	One of the creations of Hobglup the mad artisan, the doll's eyes are wide with wooden bloodthirst.
Omnimass	rare	extraplanar	demonic	Vile to behold, the omnimass defies description beyond a conglomeration of body parts melded together in disharmony. No part of this entity appears comfortable with the arrangement, and it awkwardly shuffles around, seemingly unable to agree upon a direction. Multiple eyes blink in confusion, a mouth with a large toe for a tongue grimaces around hairy teeth, and several long and twisted fingers drag the mass along as it whispers incoherently.
Pale grey death squirrel (ephemeron)	common	undead	sylvan
Pallid ocular mistweaver	rare	humanoid	unattuned	Almost unheard of to be caught in their natural form, the shapeshifter has translucent skin and cascading white tresses, while the rest of their features are eerily indistinct.
Phasing ideogram	limited	extraplanar	demonic	Wholly nondescript and devoid of detail, the ideogram floats idyllically in space. Forming and reforming its structure, it passes through phases of angular and circular configurations seemingly at random, only pausing momentarily to flex as if to commit the most recent shapes to memory. Small wisps of smoke whorl around its forms, enshrouding its perimeter and making any of its renditions impossible to capture in its entirety.
Rainbow unicorn	uncommon	beast	divine	Unlike its silver, white, and black cousins, the rainbow unicorn is rather snide and tends to fly into explosive glitter-rages.
Retan dolomar nymph	common	beast	unattuned	Resembling a smaller dolomar, the nymph has multiple moltings to undergo before it will reach full size. Softer bodied and weaker than the adults, the juvenile skittishly avoids anything that could be perceived as a threat.
Rhoat arzhoylun	limited	beast	primal	A curious cross between a large dog, iguana, and temper tantrum, the rhoat arzhoylun appears at first to be little more than a comically large and toothy mouth with an oversized lolling tongue. A pair of oversized scaled horns crown the creature's head and spine, and a long whip-tail. Perched atop awkwardly large taloned feet, the quadruped scampers back and forth with quick and jerky reptilian motions, occasionally chomping its tail with glee and somersaulting around in tight circles, leaving a trailing cloud of ashy dust as it goes.
Rune-etched asketine idol	common	construct	divine	This was once a silver-flecked, dark grey statuette for use in rituals to the Thirteen, now come alive with all the worship it has absorbed over the years.
S'Kra Kor golem	limited	construct	primal	Held together by braided strands of seaweed and vine, the golem is made of bone, wood, and seashells to give it the rough appearance of a S'Kra Kor warrior with a barbed tail.
Sacred peahen	common	beast	divine	Sacred peafowls are beloved creations of Kerenhappuch. The red-gold markings on their tails, strikingly brilliant in both genders, are said to be the eyes of the goddess, letting Her sway the mortal souls who encounter these birds.
Saendalen shark (ephemeron)	uncommon	beast	primal	A fearsome predator of the Saendalen Sea, the shark possesses a voracious appetite and keen hunting instincts. Dangerous under the best of circumstances, they are even more aggressive when fresh blood is in the water and are drawn to its scent.
Servant of Five Fingers (ephemeron)	uncommon	undead	demonic	The Servant is the bloodless, severed hand of an unidentifiable species, lurching about on its fingertips.
Shadowy black dragon hatchling	uncommon	draconic	divine
Shh'oi paguur (ephemeron)	uncommon	beast	sylvan	The small monkey has large eyes ringed with white circles, giving it a constant look of surprise. Its prehensile tail is also ringed with white, and its paws, with their typically opposable thumbs, are reddish in color with white fingers. Found in the Taisidon jungles, the shh'oi paguur is infamous for its thieving ways and love of guavas.
Spark automaton	common	construct	primal	Perched atop a trio of electrical pseudopods, the small, cat-sized machination tends to stroll around in search of minor labors -- screws to be tightened, cores to be recharged, stuck joints to be greased -- simple and dutiful in its efforts.
Spectral haunt	uncommon	undead	psychic	Shadowy and insubstantial, the haunt twists and shudders as if in excruciating pain. At times it takes on some solidity, but its vague form of a person shifts too constantly to identify the haunt's appearance.
Spectral snow-white horse	uncommon	beast	divine	For centuries, the shamans of Horse Clan have cultivated a respectful relationship with the ilk of Sulde Taala, entwining them into the fabric of Wind Elf culture.
Spirit helper	common	extraplanar	divine
Star-nosed mole	common	beast	unattuned
Swirling mote	common	extraplanar	unattuned	Writhing chaotically, the mote is little more than a flickering mass of distorted space, trailing quickly evaporating tendrils that appear to aid in its slow movement.
Sycamore dryad	common	fae	sylvan
Tenebraeling (ephemeron)	common	extraplanar	psychic
Terror bird	common	beast	unattuned
Three-jawed ebon zaulwurm	uncommon	beast	demonic	When the wetlands to Riverhaven's east fell to the demon Maelshyve's grip, their fauna was irreversibly warped, including the earthworms.
Treasure goblin	rare	fae	divine	Carrying a large treasure sack slung against its back, the skittish creature constantly looks back and forth in all directions, trying to keep vigilant and aware of its surroundings.
Two-headed adder	common	beast	sylvan	These animals are one of the many uncanny byproducts of the polluted waters flowing from Asketi's Mount.
Volcano spirit	common	extraplanar	primal
Vykathi larva	common	beast	unattuned	Not yet specialized into a specific role within the hive, the vykathi larva can do little more than slowly crawl, weave sticky sheets of tough silk, and voraciously eat.
World Dragon hatchling	rare	draconic	divine
Zombie chicken	common	undead	unattuned	Matted in dirty feathers and blood, half its face and one wing are missing. Based on its movements and behavior, it appears as though the undead chicken likely has approximately the same level of intellect as its living counterpart.
