This is a list of magical creatures and beings in the fantasy book series Fablehaven and the sequel series Dragonwatch by Brandon Mull.
A-C Alcetaur Similar to a centaur except with the body of a moose. In Book 4, an Alcetaur was one of the sentries at Blackwell Keep's front gate. In Dragonwatch, this Alcetaur is Wyrmroost's gamekeeper, and a major character. His name is Henrick, and he accompanies and assists Kendra and Seth with their main mission.
Apparition Ghostly forms that look identical to humans except a little translucent. An apparition warns Seth of the dangers he might face on Lady Luck.
Astrids Large golden owls with human faces, able to transform into winged men. It is said by Ruth (Grandma) Sorenson that they are very mysterious, and that little is known about them. Kendra saw one during the time between visits to the preserve, between books 1 and 2. Seth may have also seen one in Book 2, without having drunk the milk. It was in the appearance of a regular black owl, but he knew it was not what it appeared. In Book 4, they were revealed to have been the former servants of the Fairy Queen, and the bodyguards of the Fairy King, but they were full of pride, and they failed in their duty, resulting in the downfall of the King, the fall of all male faries (and subsequent rise of Imps), and their banishment from the queen's service. Only 93 of them exist (not including the three that were killed by Navarog), and six of them turned dark when they were banished. In Book 5, they are unbanished by the Fairy Queen and are transformed to their true forms: men in golden armor with large wings. Some of their names are Peredor, Denwin, Targoron, Silvestrus, Rostimus, Crelang and Gilgarol, who was the Captain of the Astrids. They help in the battle against the demons released from Zzyzx. Bracken once reveals that their regiment was called the Knights of the Dawn, the same name that the brotherhood in opposition of the Society took. In Book 4 of Dragonwatch, Seth and Merek are given astrid wings by the Fairy King.
Basilisks Powerful and dangerous creatures that inhabit the Dragon Sanctuary, Wyrmroost, as listed by Agad, the caretaker.
Blixes Magical beings in human form that can exert power over others through a bite, of which the myth of vampires was based. The three blixes explained in Rise of the Evening Star are: Viviblix can temporarily reanimate the dead. In Book 2, Errol Fisk claims the curator of a mortuary as a Viviblix, and likely has turned some of the dead in his care to zombies (which is a lie he invented to convince Seth to awaken the demon the curator was guarding). At the end of Book 3, several skeletons from the museum at Lost Mesa suddenly come to life and help overthrow the preserve. Navarog reveals at the end of Book 4 that it was Mr. Lich who made this possible. It is confirmed in Book 5 that he is a viviblix. Narcoblix can control the actions of others while they are sleeping. Vanessa Santoro, first mentioned in Book 2, is a Narcoblix and bites others in their sleep in an attempt to overthrow the preserve. She is thwarted and put in the Quiet Box to keep her from controlling those she had bitten. She appears sporadically throughout the third and fourth books, but is finally freed in the fifth, when she helps the Knights of the Dawn battle the Society of the Evening Star. Another narcoblix named Wayne is confronted at Obsidian Waste. Lectoblix age quickly, and survive by draining the youth of others. In Book 4, Torina Barker reveals herself to Kendra as a Lectoblix. Held captive with Kendra are several 'elderly' victims of the lectoblix. Out of 'kindness' she allowed them some years left to live, but others she absorbed all youth out until they perished from old age. She appears several times in the fifth book, pursuing the Knights of the Dawn on Obsidian Waste, and hunting down the Eternals.
Brownies Brownies are flightless fairy folk who love to fix things that are broken, and improving them where possible. Also, when ingredients are left out, they will bake something delicious, although they always attempt to make it into a dessert. Grandma Sorenson mentions in the second book that brownies invented the delicious dessert, brownies, which is how they got their name. In the first book, when goblins and other unfriendly creatures from Fablehaven raid and wreck the house on Midsummer's Eve, the brownies repair it in short length of time. In Book 2, Kendra and Seth have to shrink themselves and pass through the underground Brownie community to get inside the house. In Book 3, the brownies become affected by the shadow plague and fill the house with deadly traps.
Centaur Strong and intelligent beings that are part horse, and part man, the Centaurs have only really played a role in the third and fifth book, with some presence in the fourth. They are portrayed as being very noble and prideful. The three centaurs mentioned in the third book are Stormbrow, Cloudwing, and Broadhoof. In Book 4, their most treasured item is the Soul of Grunhold or the first horn of a unicorn. The names of other centaurs are Quickstride, Bloodthorn, Skygazer, Fleetfoot, Edgerunner, and Graymane who is the leader of the centaurs, and counsels with Stan Sorenson regarding their prized talisman, the unicorn horn or "Soul of Grunhold". In Book 5, when Fablehaven falls, the Centaurs try to take over the preserve.
Cervitaur Described in Dragonwatch as men with bodies of deer.
Chimera Thronis, the sky giant, obtains a magic figurine, that when uttered the correct words, will become an actual chimera, obedient to his will. Chimeras are mentioned as one of the creatures inhabiting the Living Mirage preserve. It is mostly a fire breathing, three headed lion but has a goat head in the center of its back and its tail is similar to a snake's.
Choke pod: A small pod that when touched explodes into a poison that kills quickly and then liquefies the body it kills. In Book 3, Neil got hit by a choke pod at Lost Mesa.
Cockatrice One of these killed Raxtus's siblings while they were eggs, but was stopped by fairies before it killed Raxtus.
Cyclops Cyclops is a one-eyed giant. In Rise of the Evening Star, Vanessa and Errol had to get past one guarding the artifact in the inverted tower. A Cyclops also appears at the final battle between dark and light creatures in Grip of the Shadow Plague. In Dragonwatch Book 2, Kendra meets Bag Zou, the leader of the Western Cyclopses at Dragon's Feast of Welcome.
D-F Demon One of the most powerful magical creatures, demons are often the villains in the Fablehaven series. Several demons are mentioned in the series. They are: Bahumat from Book 1, a monster that stands three times as tall as a man, with the head of a dragon crowned with three horns. He has three arms, three legs and three tails. He has oily black scales with bristly spikes. He is able to emit a wave of darkness to blind his foes, and has a deafening roar. Batoosa: A Chilean demon suggested by Jubaya that could be helpful in dealing with the Dragon Uprising in Dragonwatch. He changes shape with the seasons of the year, and has a fondness for meat. Brogo: An enormous demon with an iron mask in the form of a very fat and muscular giant, he is one of the sons of Gorgrog, and said to be one of the strongest demons in history. He loses an arm to Celebrant after Zzyzx is open. Chazrah the Reaper: An imprisoned demon, like a centaur but with the body of a panther, he grudgingly serves those who seek to confer with Orogoro, and his eyes are sewn shut, probably as some sort of punishment. Din Bidor: A huge wolf demon with long fangs and black fur, darkness and fear increases its size. Graulas: An ancient demon who was once one of the most feared demons in the world, but is now long past his prime due to a wasting illness. He basically made Fablehaven his home to await death. He radiates magical fear, and has the ability to see almost anything on the preserve. In Books 3 and 4 he aids Seth in overcoming the Shadow Plague, and officially makes him a shadow charmer. In Book 5, he is first seen meeting with Seth, finally dying, though it is taking very long. He asks Seth that, should he have the chance, to return with the Sands of Sanctity and use it on him, to lessen his dying pain, and Seth agrees. When Seth returns to fulfill his promise, he tricks Seth into healing him with the Sands of Sanctity and steals both the Sands and the Translocator, and helped Nagi Luna open Zzyzx. It is later revealed that in his earlier years he used a powerful gem called the Wizenstone to pull off numerous dark deeds, after double-crossing many powerful monarchs and peoples. Gorgrog: The king of Demons, responsible for the downfall of the Fairy King, he fought the Knights when Zzyzx was opened, nearly killing Bracken and the Fairy Queen. Humbuggle: A shape-shifting, extremely clever dwarf who concocted elaborate schemes using the powerful Wizenstone, such as the Games, he changes sides throughout the Dragonwatch series, always benefitting himself, and after a final betrayal is locked in the new demon prison. Ixyria: A muscular female serpent with four arms, said to be mentor to witches and hags. Jubaya: Resembling a giant praying mantis, she lives in a mud pit and corrupts anything she touches. She gives advice to Kendra on dealing with the dragon uprising in Dragonwatch. Kurisock: A demon more of shadow than substance, perhaps the least is known of him, other than being confined to his lair, which is a cursed tar pit far inside Fablehaven. To interact with the material world, he binds himself to a host, giving the host greater power. He bound himself to the hamadryad Ephira, infusing her with dark power, and through whom the Shadow Plague was created and spread. Lycerna: A gargantuan serpentine demon who has taken over a secret preserve in Brazil. Nagi Luna: In the shape of a wrinkled old woman with purple skin and yellow eyes, she was in league with the Sphinx until Graulas took over and freed her. She helped orchestrate the opening of Zzyzx. Olloch: Also known as Olloch the Glutton, Olloch is a frog-like monster with several flailing tongues and an insatiable appetite. He is under a spell which keeps him trapped as a tiny statue with a sign that warns people not to feed him. If someone makes the mistake of feeding the dormant statue, Olloch will bite the feeder and eventually devour them, thus turning him into a statue again. As he eats, he grows in size and power. In Rise of the Evening Star he grows in size to "much bigger than the elephants Seth had seen at the zoo". Orogoro: A hulking shaggy demon with moose antlers, the eldest son of Gorgrog, he is fond of cruel deals and has Seth stabbed with a cursed weapon known as the Unforgiving Blade in book 5 of the Dragonwatch series. Raisha: A demon whom Kendra met in book 5 of the Dragonwatch series, she had been imprisoned by trolls, and when the town of Humburgh was destroyed she attempted to escape. Before she could however, the building she was in collapsed, eventually crushing her. She gave Kendra advice before she died, telling her to seek out the demons Jubaya had recommended in book 1. Talizar: Resembling a man with the head like a wolf, Talizar visits Seth in a dream requesting a partnership to deal with the dragon uprising in Dragonwatch. He explains to Kendra later that he was once a lycanthrope. Vez Radim: A demon suggested by Jubaya that could be helpful in dealing with the Dragon Uprising in Dragonwatch, he cannot go out in the sunlight, and is very similar to a vampire. Zorat the Plagueman: A pale, thin, very tall man pocked with sores and sickness, capable wiping out the enemy with disease.
Dire Bears Giant, aggressive bears that attack Kendra and Seth at Wyrmroost.
