SKORNE: Giant Scorpions found all throughout the furiyan continent.

Often found nesting in shallow underground burrows and dungeons. They venom is especially sought after by alchemists and assassins do to its potency. Capable of growing up to seven feet tall and thirty feet long from head to tail.
GAHLION: Also called dire lions or dread lions. These fierce predatory cats can be found throughout the savannah and grasslands of eastern and northern furiya. Often growing to be twice as large as an average lion, they are relatively rare do to over hunting by nomadic tribes. In combat these beasts are known to be quite stealthy, utterly silent as they ambush their prey.
FLIXAN: Also called a dire fox or dune wolf. These giant foxes are only slightly larger then a common wolf. Solitary creatures, they are found all throughout the furiyan continent, but are most common in the desert. Often hunted by Gahlions, only feeding on smaller animals such as rabbits, young terricks and the occasional elderly gnoll too slow to evade them.
GNOLL: Known as feral, humanoid beastfolk of the furiyan wilds with the appearance of hyena. Attacking frontier and borderland settlements, slaughtering travelers and cannibalizing them for food. Rarely building structures of their own, these creatures often reside within ruins and abandoned villages and campsites. Divided into rival hordes of dozens and sometimes hundreds of individuals.
SPHINX: Extremely rare, these creatures were created by eldari gods to act as guardians of sacred treasures. Found primarily in ruined cities and hidden dungeons throughout Furiya. Immortal and highly intelligent creatures, these winged lion like beings are consumed by an absolute sense of duty to protect their treasures. Known to be up to ten feet tall and ruthlessly defend what it theirs.
BLIGHT: Semi-intelligent cactus like creatures found throughout southern furiya. These cactus blights wander the wilds seeking blood. Slow moving and when still, these creatures are indistinguishable from common cactus. Often exuding an aroma that attracts animals to them. Blasting toxic needles at their prey to immobilize them as they drain them of blood.
