Erqigdlit
This snarling creature appears to be a bipedal hybrid of wolf and man, with canine legs and humanoid arms ending in clawed hands. It has a short muzzle filled with razor-sharp teeth and pointed, dog-like ears. Its body is covered from head to toe in red fur.
Taken from the Creature Codex
Erqigdlit are bloodthirsty, wild humanoids of the frozen forests. It is commonly rumored among the people of the tundra that the erqigdlit were created in some hideous act of bestiality, marking them forever as the enemies of all civilized folk. The erqigdlit do their best to fit this role, as they have little technology and delight in the taste of human flesh. The erqigdlit do not create shelters, make tools or use fire. The erqigdlit do not craft arms or armor, but they understand their function—typically only chiefs and other elite members of the tribe are allowed the use of precious captured weapons.
Erqigdlit society is barely a society at all, having more in common with the pack hierarchy of wild dogs than any other culture. Status in the tribe is determined by strength and skill at hunting, but fights to establish pecking order are rare— erqigdlit display little violence towards each other and most disputes are solved via intimidation and threats rather than bloodshed. Erqigdlits are obligate carnivores and enjoy the taste of other humanoids most of all. Erqigdlit packs travel for days through ice and snow in search of human prey, striking when they have the advantage of numbers and surprise. Their ability to move through frozen terrain unhindered gives them unparalleled speed in their icy domain.
Although the erqigdlit are often confused with werewolves, the two creatures have little to do with each other. Erqigdlit fear fire, and even a simple torch may keep these creatures at bay for a time. Erqigdlit stand as tall as a man, and are slightly heavier on average due to their powerful muscles and strong bones. An erqigdlit reaches maturity by three years of age, and typically lives a short, violent life. Few erqigdlit survive until old age, which is typically 20 years old.
