Creatures of Oz

Oz is a magical place full of strange and bizarre creatures of all kinds, many of which can talk, walk on two legs, etc... but not all of these can be considered "people" in the classic sense.

This is certainly not a comprehensive list by any means, so expect the unexpected!
 

Universal Ozian Creatures

Animals

Not all animals in Oz are Changelings.  Birds sing in the trees, fish swim in the rivers, and animals scurry through the forests and fields.  In addition to the native animals of Oz, animals have also been known to cross over with Storm Riders - some famous examples are Billina the chicken and Toto the dog, who came over with Dorothy.  

Because of the fairy magic that imbues the land of Oz, animals have the ability to talk.  Even Storm Rider animals gain this ability after coming over, though not all of them choose to exercise their new voices.
