Rabbites, they're just so cute and squishy (like living peep candies) and explode if you poke them.
That or moogles, ever since the time in Crystal Chronicles, because it encouraged me to 'paint it' something so random, cute, and right up my alley of harmless deviance to digital creatures.
I'd say the critters from Warcraft, but it wasn't the creatures so much as the sport of invisible sheep hunting that made them memorable. Polymorph enemies, turn them invisible, wait a few seconds, send fireball.
Yes, I realize two of those examples aren't harmless, but I settle for what the game system will give me in the lesser times.

This is hard though I guess I would have to pick the Asari from Mass Effect though there are a bunch of other cool ones like the Selkath and the Mandalorians from KotOR and the Salarians are all pretty cool too.

But I personally like the utter sense of mortality generated by The Reapers from Mass Effect. This species wipes out every lifeform that's developed to a certain point... And they've done it more than once! It's like your species has an expiration date on them before they are competely destroyed...

Coolest spaceships ever - seriously, look at the following:
Plus they're a race of insane religious fanatics living in a beautiful and gigantic nebula, in space. You've gotta love them.

One of the greatest moments in gaming history...
Indeed. Though it's more impressive with the relevant emphasis.zala-taichou said:"This is the Garden of Kadesh. For thirteen generations we have protected it from the unclean.

Ahh, I love Homeworld so much... best game ever.
I'm very much inclined to agree. Ah, now I want to start playing it again. *rummages in cabinet for Homeworld CD*OhJohnNo said:
