Lank Boars are long-legged creatures combining the worst aspects of bear and swine. They have long¸ curling snouts¸ bristly¸ boar-like bodies and long legs with clawed three-toed paws. They stand six to eight feet at the shoulder and are nine to ten feet long.
Lank Boars are omnivorous and will eat nearly anything. They prefer to get their meat from carcasses¸ but aren't above killing smaller animals -and people- if they're hungry.
Lank Boars most often appear in temperate forests with fae populations. Though they aren't much smarter than a clever dog¸ their proximity has left them predisposed to defend fae and have a natural affinity for their environment. Despite this connection¸ they're very susceptible to corruption¸ and dark magic tends to turn them foul long before other creatures.
