Ape-like creatures native to the [[Irendoria|Irendorian]] continent. Lots of rumors circulate about these beings, many of them lurid, and some motivated by a desire to demonize them to justify exterminating them, as they live in forests which some humans would like to chop down for timber. It seems likely they are more intelligent than the Earth gorillas that they equal in size: they are said to have language, live in villages, create and use tools, have some form of religion, and trade gemstones with humans. The rumors about their males' taste for human women, and the enormous size of their genitals, may also be true.
