Magion
Etymology: from Latin, exos ("boneless") + ia, a translingual suffix commonly used in taxonomy.
Magions in this group are characterized by having no skeletal structure, do not take multiple forms nor combine physical traits of different taxonomic groups, and are native to our world. Some are similar to non-magical animals such as molluscs, worms and other invertebrates, while others have forms unique to magions.
