Description:
Bolgerath are stout and large, usually topping around 6 feet in height. They are extremely muscular with a greyish hue to their skin tone. Their faces are humanoid and their legs shorter then the normal elf or human, making them poor runners. They are donned with little armor when they go out to hunt, normally a helmet or perhaps a chest plate, with thick boots.


Combat:
Bolgerath normally travel in groups of 3-5 when they go out hunting, and take advantage of the resources from the mountains. They are skill hunters and fishermen, sustaining themselves on the animals of the mountain, and are able to drink the salt water straight from the sea, preferring that to fresh water. They carry large weapons, usually a club with one or more piercing spikes coming from it, able to render a potential meal helpless with a strong enough hit. If they lose the club, they rely on large hands and strong muscles to tear apart their victims. They are also a cannibalistic group, eating the meat of humans and elven alike when they make their raids into the Kuro mountain village. They have been known to enslave the humans and elven victims, making them perform menial tasks such as skinning the meats of their hunts, collecting water and cleaning, before devouring them in a torturous ritual.

Habitat/Society:
They are pure hunters, mostly male in numbers, with a few females that are kept back in the mountain caves to raise the children. Females usually bear one or two children in their lives and they stick with the miles of mountain in the east. They live all together, and have been driven back from attacks on the village by an army of Orc. Very little is known about Bolgerath such as social habits, but they are feared in the mountain range, mostly known as brutal hunters. They hunt for humans and elves at night, and the rest of their prey is hunted during the day.

Ecology:
Bolgerath usually live around 45 years and stick with the mountain range, as they believe the entire world is just a simple mountain range. A few have made it into the Valley, but they are afraid of the large flat vastness, thinking it to perhaps be a void of some kind that will swallow them up. They stick with the black mountains, living in the massive caverns and hunting in the forests, while fishing in the seas. This is a creature that has not been studied as they will attack and eat anything that is not like them. They cannot be followed as they have heightened senses for tracking prey.
