Uhlak
The uhlak is a therianthrope -- a half-man, half-beast creature, also known as a bisontaur. An uhlak has the body of a bison, the torso of a human, and a bovine (or minotaur-like) head. They are attested according to well-known legends and petroglyphs to have existed before the Great Flood. There are a few schools of thought that describe the origin of the uhlak. Some scholars ascribe their creation to powerfully advanced titan wizards while others posit that the uhlak is a natural creation of the earth. Scholars sometimes call uhlaks the bisontaurs.
The greatest range of the uhlak is Eloaria in western Asdauria where they are kept at bay by the mighty army of the Empire of Aurice. Despite their bovine features, the Uhlak are nomadic omnivores. They will eat fish and small game, but prefer grass or domestic crops. Their appetite for corn (wheat and otherwise) often brings them into conflict with humans as the uhlak usually does not plant or harvest his own crops.
