Though very different from their native Sural, Gray Harbor colonists have nevertheless accepted the new island as their home. Every day, it seems, someone finds a new, oddly shaped mushroom in a meadow, or a fly of a color no one thought possible.

Island life exists in abundance, but none of it is familiar to new immigrants. For the purposes of the game, it is easiest to assume that most real-life animals and plants exist back in Sural, and not on the new island. Even the bugs and grasses are different, though they often bear such small differences that colonists simply use the old-world names for them. So, to a colonist, a mosquito is just a mosquito, whether it's an island mosquito, or a homeland mosquito (They tend to be bigger on the new island, have slightly larger eyes, and two extra legs, but in their function, they are indeed mosquito-like, if not true mosquitos).

In addition, colonists have brought a large amount of plant and animal life along with them. So even though there aren't any native mice in Gray Harbor, there are plenty of Surelain mice that migrated over from the homeland on ships. You can quite easily find apple trees, dogs, cats, chickens, carrots, potatoes, and other homeland delights peppering the colony, and the space immediately about it.

That all being said, there is quite an abundance of odd, and sometimes dangerous, native life.
