Ursumaur

Ursumaurs are one of four descendants of Rahhtaurs, who were once a herd of gwos near the Hammig Desert who were most affected by the divine light of the Enlightenment. They became Rahhtaurs. They wielded spears and bows and realised that their land could not sustain them, so they went west and attacked the Adyadun who lived around the Gulf of Hasir instead of working their own lands. Nuyimir was eventually killed by these invaders during one of his attempts at thwarting a raid. The Adyadun, fearing annihilation or enslavement at the hands of the Rahhtaurens, came to the Reas for help, and the Reas agreed to assist their old enemies. Though Rahhtaurens were great in physical might, they had no defence against the mental abilities of the Reas, and were driven eastward.

Ursumaurs are believed to be closest in appearance to their Rahhtaur ancestors: They are very large and have the strong and bulky lower bodies of gwos, built for hardiness and endurance. They are extremely hardy and can attack not only with handheld weapons but with horns, claws, and hoofs, and mostly live in an Orda in eastern Huhhtuad. Unlike other Rahhtaurs, Ursumaurs fiercely reject all human society, and will often attack any non-Ursumaurs on sight. As Gwerines, they have strong hearts and are thus prone to stronger surges of emotions.
