Legend

native to the planet Yinchorr, this large creature resembled a krayt dragon in many ways. Essentially a big lizard, the rolk-mangir was heavy-set and thick-limbed, giving it a lumbering appearance. Nevertheless, the rolk-mangir was quite fast when on the hunt, and used surprise to catch its prey. Compared to its body, the rolk-mangir's head was quite small, with a toothy mouth surrounded by six stout horns used to spear its prey. Its name was derived from the Yinchorri phrase for "horned death". The average rolk-mangir stood nearly four meters tall, and was quite cunning when it came to stalking it prey. Rolk-mangir lived in small packs, each of which had its own hierarchy and pecking order.
