Keljor's Guide to Khaldred

A guide to the realm of Khaldred, depicting the many monstrosities of the lands and their physiology and abilities. Authored by the high Elf bladesinger from Silverymoon on the Sword Coast.

To date, the following creatures have been encountered creatures and races of Khaldred.

Banderhobb
A horrifying creature that is similar in its physiology to that of some fiendish like toad. 10 feet tall, with a reaching tongue that can extend upto 15 feet. Though it could reach further.

Hags often create them though can serve as pest control in some communities. Though commonly referred to as pests.

Seemingly, the creature attacks and inflicts damage of a degrading necrotic nature. Obscenely strong and should be avoided. No known experiences where the Banderhobb has not proven to be violent towards humanoid races.

A sign of an impending attack or entering the territory of one of these creatures is the presence of toads and frogs in the vicinity. Treat with extreme caution. Special effects of this Banderhobb include the ability to dissapear and appear at-will.

Has the ability to break the shell of a tortle in a single bite and consume them whole. In addition, they may grow humans insides their stomachs.

Skaven
A interesting humanoid of a rat like creature. The noble rat people, the delvers of the dark, the ones of many teeth. Known as Skaven. According to a reliable source, these creatures can be found everywhere.

Scavengers by nature, the Skaven race will hunt and consume anything they can find. To date, they are known to eat both monstorisites and humanoids, including tortles, a race known for their peaceful demeanour.

Interestingly, the Skaven engage in slavery as part of their infrastructure. More interesting still, they place those of their own blood in slavery to work in construction and in war.

From personal observations, they take a keen interest in harvest the bodies of the dead for both consumption and alchemical purposes. First-hand, I have experienced the viscous creations of potions at their hand. Upon consumption, I shall further report my findings into these odd beings.

Whilst primitive creatures, they do rely on trade in addition to scavenging, and so trade in place of warfare might be an option but should be considered with extreme caution.
