Aneen

Tall and muscular, aneen are bipedal herd animals. These omnivores mainly eat grass, leaves, and, occasionally, small lizards or rodents. Although herds of wild aneen roam the Plains of Kataru and the eastern edges of the Black Riage, they are most often encountered as pack and riding animals in the northern kingdoms of the Steadfast. Aneen have tiny forelimbs and small claws that are neither particularly sharp nor good for grasping.

Conservation Status

In some places, aneen are raised for their meat and milk. They are known for their speed and ability to carry great weights without tiring. In merchant caravans, an aneen can carry two or even three people in addition to 200 to 300 pounds of packed goods. Aneen are greatly prized animals, worth at least 100 shins each.
