A glimpse of the Denizens of Dereth
The Reed Shark
Terror of the Swamp
The crests of these man-sized, three-legged creatures emerging from the foliage may be the only warning of an impending attack. Often traveling in packs, these distant cousins of the aquatic Shallows Shark and the tundra-dwelling Mattekar have been domesticated by the Tumeroks. Recent arrivals, however, should avoid them at all costs.
The Virindi
Masked Enigma of the Badlands
Wielding wicked-edged sickles, these floating, mystical beings strike fear into most sensible adventurers. Those who don't know about their staggering magical powers will soon find out. Travelers should always try to take on Virindi en masse. Lurking on the Obsidian Plain, these apparitions mask, cloak, and conceal both their physical appearance and their intentions on Dereth.
The Lugian
Giant from the highlands
Among the mightiest of Dereth's monsters, these massive mountain-dwelling titans dwarf humans with their sheer size. Their strongholds are found across Southern Osteth, in the highlands of the Linvak Range. Even the lowest of their castes—the Laigus—can effortlessly dispatch an inexperience explorer.
The Olthoi
Scourge of the Land
The bane of the Empyrean civilization, these vile, hulking insects once enslaved all of Dereth's humans. Today, they have been vanquished to the deepest subterranean reaches. Although Derethians want nothing more than to see these abominations extinct, the hard truth remains that Dereth still needs heroes—adventurers strong and brave enough to travel into the shadowy hive and survive what horror and bounty await within.
