The Odineer

Ecology:
Plains and Mountains, Herbivores except for their yearly feast.

Society:
An Elder per Yemsh (village) serves as the leader. The elders gather together once every century or as needed to determine matters for the entire nation. The eldest of all the Elders presides though all decisions are done by majority vote of the 15 Yemsh.

Odineer are generally very gentle creatures. They heard oxen which they use for their yearly feast and farm grain and rare herbs they trade to merchants for pearls and silks.

Physiology:
An adult Odineer stands 15 feet tall in adulthood, weighing over 600 lbs. They are covered with a thin, brown fur during the summer months, which grows into a thick white grey during the winters. The females have horns similar to a ram's growing out of the top of their head, while males have a spiked bony growth over the center of their back and shoulders. Their large size does come with a price. They move heavily across the ground, unable to surprise their foes and although their large brains give them higher intelligence they are considerably slow to act.
