Pencil sketch of Garibin, a shaggy creature with a tree stump growing from its back
Garibin

Garibin

Aspect: Geo · Nation: Zarakar

Overview

Garibin appear ancient even by Zarakarian standards. Once thought to be of the Nature aspect, due to the large tree trunks sprouting out of its back, it has now been observed that they are closer to the Geo aspect. The trees are in fact petrified and thus are more stone than wood. Garibin seem docile due to their slow moving meandering but are actually savage protectors of the few spots of vegetation dotting the Zarakarian wastes.

Habitat

mountainous cedar forests, northern uplands
