Yartain

Also known as: murder chicken; chicken bear; chicken yeti; angry beanbag

The yartain are large powerful carnivores who live within the frozen regions to the North of Anyaral, their thick furs protecting them from the coldest winters. They are perceived as a threat to all who would travel through the Setir mountains. The Dhogu tell stories in their harsh tongue to scare young jenta who would venture from the camp. In truth, the yartain will rarely attack travellers and only if starving. They have learned to be wary of the Dhogu tribes, and there are easier ways to stay fed.
