Creatures of Ithia: Dreite Savage Species.

These subspecies of Dreite are disconnected from the main group of Dreite, broken away during the Black Veil empire, isolated, and evolved separately from the rest of the Dreite they developed into their own subspecies. Some crossbreeding, others evolving to fit niches without the support of other caste species. 

The Melkin are medium sized feline humanoids with thick fur, hair on the head, and slightly heavier set. The Melkin dwell primarily in Tundra and are expert hunters and made to last for long periods of fasting in the coldest lands.  

Mamman are huge mammoth humanoids with great thick wooly fur, great tusks, and thick muscle. Mamman are highly organized and civilized dwellers of the tundra’s of the Lands of Maria. Mamman regularly defend their homes against the Marok and Wrightmark who claim the continent by divine right. 

The Minotaur are large sized bull humanoids, bovine Dreite twisted by the will of the Bull God into vicious, spiteful, monsters who crave blood and battle. Minotaurs are savage brutes who raid small villages across plains, grasslands, woodlands, and temperate climates.  

Rupple are medium sized feline humanoids, monsterous, sleek, and terrifying lone apex predators that hunt near civilized areas. Generally, they survive off livestock and pets but will attack isolated humanoids if they think they can get away with it. Rupple are dangerous, highly agile, and vicious. 

Barum are strange Dreite crossbreeds found only in the Eastern lands. Resembling a mix between a bear and oxen Dreite with large, clawed forearms, big horns, thick fur, and smooth skin along the upper chest and stomach where they decorate their skin in intricate tattoos. 

The Gnoll are medium sized Hyena humanoids, tribal, maintaining small nomadic societies that survive by raiding Kaiden oasis for water and supplies. Native to the Lands of Kain. Some Gnoll clans have more stable settlements having formed alliances to grant water access.  

The Dousk are larger, more aggressive cousins of the Gnoll. Dousk are savage monstrous creatures who have spread discord and suffering in their wake. Most Dousk live in the conquered Oasis of the far east of the Lands of Kain. There is no peaceful option when it comes to the Dousk. 

The Houn are often mistaken for Kobolds looking quite similar in silhouette. Houn are small dog and goat crossbreeds who find niches in temperate climates building small soceities in isolated areas away from larger humanoids. 

The Brakier are large brutish gorilla and ox crossbreed humanoids. Savages found all along the temperate and hot and humid climates. Brakier form small settlements high in trees or on fortified hill tops. It is unknown if the Gorilla Dreite died off or were entirely bred out of the species. 

The Meggari are medium sized bat humanoids. Too big to fly they are nocturnal and make their homes high up on mountains gliding down to lower lands to hunt and gather. Meggari are peaceful and skittish avoiding the warlike dominate species to the best of their ability. As there are no Bat Dreite it is believed they are either a crossbreed between Everon and Mouse Dreite. It is also possible the Bat Dreite broke off entirely long ago.
