Talyxians
Talyxians (タリクシアン Tarikushian) are the species group of creatures that include plants consisting of plural kinds; "Talyxian creatures". They are native species of Tal. Most of them have the appearances that mixed organic creatures and inorganic components and have gray blood or gray core. They have mechanical-like appearances, though they are absolutely not a machine, cyborg, or robot beings.
The form of name "Talyxian-***" and "Talyxian" itself is generally treated as a scientific name, or speaking in a formal way. Eltus people usually call them while sharing the same name from Earth's creatures, or a simple common name of Tal's own things like Dondokos. As a prominent example, Eltus people usually call Talyxian-Stalkers as just "cats" while the name of "Talyxian-Stalker" is treated as a scientific name. And Eltus people often use a word of "Alien biomes" as a generic name for a whole of Talyxians or Talyxian biomes. Or they often use also just word of "monster" for ferocious and harmful creatures like actinias. In colloquial language, the name of "Talyxians" itself be used as respectable race name also for ones who have surely 'human right' like A part of T-stalkers in modern Gold Ring.
In biology of Vilous creatures, the Talyxian species group are classified under the Tal's primitive creatures, and are totally different from the Eltus race definitely. They have very unique particularities on their biology that are obviously different from Eltus and common creatures of Earth. Some examples, rooters don't eat any foods and can't reproduce in the same way as common creatures, stalkers may change their gender according to growth.

Talyxians and salt
Almost all Talyxian species creatures avoid salts for the unknown reasons. Salt is not inherently toxic to Talyxian creatures, but talyxian creatures have an inherent repulsion towards the touch of salt, especially on their mucous membrane areas. And they do feel intense pain and discomfort if salt is applied, especially to an open wound. For comparison, it is significantly more painful to Talyxians compared to those of the Eltus people.
The truth behind the biological relationship between salt and Talyxians is still a deeply unknown matter to Eltus. However, it is common knowledge among the Eltus people that salt is a very effective deterrent to almost all Talyxians.
Hizomi-Nonbon
One kind of excrement of Talyxian creatures that is excreted when they had ingested salts by eating Eltus creatures.
When some kind of harmful talyxian creatures has eaten Eltus people, they will excrete salts that are included in Eltus blood while taking a long time. And those salt excrement is wrapped by the black matter that has rubber-like hard quality. It will be shown as completely a lump of black thing when those are excreted. And there is an unalloyed crystal of the salt in center of those. If they took something that has highly-concentrated salt, they often wrap a whole of it without digestion.
Those things are called by various names according to each region, "Hizomi-Nonbon" is one of a popular name. But it often be called as "Hizomi" or "Nonbon" for the abbreviation. Eltus people use those things for the magic rituals. Because of this, people usually be going to take and crack it to get a crystal of salt if they found Hizomi-Nonbon.
