Pirajni

Pirajni! You most beautiful of beasts. All obstacles, whatever they may be, may be rooted out by giving thanks to you, Oh glorious creature.

— Fragment of a Zanzeeri proverb, translated to Imperial Wythian

The Pirajni (Bergic: Oliphaun) are hulking terrestrial beasts with mighty tusks and long flexible snouts. They appear to bear some superficial relation to Wythe's common boar and its porcine relatives, albiet far larger. The Pirajni have been largely domesticated by the Elven Zanzeeri people, although small pockets of wild Pirajni can be found throughout the Gimirrayan steppe whence the beasts are native.
