Feature | Endemic creatures that are native to the Windward Plains- particularly its deserts. Thanks to their unusual tails, they can sit upright and assess their surroundings, or they can shield themselves from the hot sun. When they sit, their tails leave a mark in the sand that resembles a large monster's footprint. They typically travel in pairs to watch each other's back while doing things like drinking. |
