Kellanion Akitiin

Alternate Spelling: Great Akitiin

I have heard stories of enormous akitiin that live in the Naralon forests. During my brief time there I am somewhat glad to say I didn’t encounter one, even if they would have been fascinating to study.

The most fearsome of the akitiin only ever mentioned in hushed tones by the trebarnii - the kellanion. These huge beasts are found in the very depths of the forest and for generations have been seen as a great deterrent. In recent years their eggs have become highly valued within the black market trade. Some of my colleagues from the great colleges learned to extract a strong hallucinogenic jelly from the eggs that has become fashionable within the highest noble circles and it is even rumoured the Emperor himself partakes. This has prompted many foolish fortune hunters into the forests, some of whom have even returned, telling tales of the terrors within.

The terrifying kellanion akitiin are found in the depths of the forests, digging pits beneath the great trees and waiting patiently for unsuspecting prey to venture close enough for them to ambush.

Trebarnii goaders have found they can lure these beasts to build their traps in the path of trespassing Delgon logging crews, then wait patiently for the ensuing chaos so they can eradicate any survivors.
