Disclaimers and comments on leaderboard:

RULES

0. The purpose of this game is for the Question Master (QM) to select a being to be guessed, and for the contestants to deduce the identity of this being by asking a series of questions.

1. Only binary (yes/no) questions may be asked. Conditional questions are allowed, but will only be answered if the condition is met.

2. If the QM cannot determine with reasonable certainty whether the answer to a particular question is "Yes." or "No.", they will simply reply with "Pass.". Questions that are answered in this way will not count towards the twenty-question limit, but all other binary questions will count towards the limit.

3. If the QM passes on a particular question, the question may be re-asked (either by the original contestant or by someone else). The QM will then give his best guess at the answer. This will count as one of the twenty questions.

4. Before the twentieth question is answered, one guess per contestant does not count against the total twenty questions, but additional guesses by the same contestant do.

5. After all twenty questions are answered, there are no more free guesses, and five total guesses (combined among the contestants) shall be allowed.

6. No player shall ask more than two consecutive questions or guesses (or combination thereof). EG: If Player A asks a question; and Player B makes a guess; Player A may go next with up to two questions or guesses. It is not allowed for a single contestant to ask two consecutive questions and then make a free guess (without other contestants asking or guessing any intervening questions).

7. The question master may choose entities real or fictional that are not horribly obscure, so long as they are not repeats.

8. Whoever guesses correctly takes over from the previous question master; if they do not want to do it, they may choose someone else provided they are willing.

9. In the unlikely event the question master remains undefeated three times in a row they shall be offered the opportunity to replace Jimmy Carr on whatever panel quiz show he is currently presenting, and must then choose someone else to be the next QM (provided they are willing).

10. If terminology in a question is undefined, the QM defines it however they think is most reasonable. Questions regarding the methodology used do not count towards the 20 questions and best come with an example figure.

11. A contestant can "scratch" their own question or guess after asking it, as long as they post a sincere apology in the thread before it is answered. Scratched questions and guesses do not count as questions or guesses for the purposes of the total count, or the three consecutive questions/guesses rule.

We are now in the CCLXXXVIII theater.

It has already been established that it is fictional.

It is not a horse, rabbit, hare, wolf, or beaver.

Yes.
To be clear, for anyone confused by this answer, I am saying that it is a fictional representation of a real type of animal. So based on this answer it could be a turkey or a beaver (although these specifically have been eliminated by later questions) but it can't be, for example, a unicorn or a phoenix.
