Dangerous Creatures
Dragons
Dragons of all shapes, sizes, and origin have called Cantha home for thousands of years, since long before the tribes of old joined to form the empire that took them as its symbol.
Yeti
The primitive and brutal enemies of the Tengu, the Yeti are just intelligent enough to form a hunter-gatherer society, but one with a deep tradition of honor and courage (as the Yeti understand these concepts).
Mantids
These beastly insects have begun to appear with more frequency in the countryside and other areas surrounding Shing Jea Monastery. Mantids form small hives in the caves that dot the area, and are always on the lookout for prey—either to feed themselves, or their queen’s eggs.
Kirin
These peaceful spirit monks have become corrupted by Shiro’s return, and will sometimes strike out at the living. Approach any Kirin with caution.
Oni
There are some who say that the demonic, savage Oni originate in the Mists, others from someplace even more distant, dark, and cut off from the world of sanity. They are killers from beyond, appearing from nowhere to butcher their victims, for what reason no one knows. Whatever their purpose or origin, the Oni are among the most deadly things on two legs in Cantha.
