Pitzoquitl

The origins of these immense beasts, which are also known as Mud-Hogs, are lost to time. Engineered by the Teryxian Brood Masters at the height of their abilities, these powerful creatures, with their upright stance and grasping, digging hands, were used to shape mud and haul stone for the construction of the buildings and spires that were once the jewel of Quill. After the Fall, without the Teryxians’ daily psychic guidance of their behavior and physical evolution, the Pitzoquitl very quickly became feral.

Now they dwell deep in the jungles, living in small family groupings. They’ll eat just about anything, plant and animal alike. While typically rather placid, they are capable of violent bursts of activity as they are driven by their ravenous appetite.
