Gorger

The Gorger was created by the ritual that caused the Devastation. The ape-like gait and massive jaws are perhaps its most remarkable characteristics. With great gaping maw, and a body resembling a hairless Giant Ape, the Gorger combines the attributes of a shark with the mobility of a biped. Its mouth is filled with multiple rows of teeth capable of cutting through leather as easily as paper. As it feeds, the jaws oscillate with a frightening buzz, allowing them to chew through materials even tougher than leather. In some cases, the Gorger can bite right through metal.

The Gorger has no known ecology or method of reproduction; in fact no one really knows a lot about the creature other than it was never seen prior to the Devastation. The grey, hairless body reveals no gender, and it bears no resemblance to Demons or mythological creatures known to sages and wizards. Those who survive the feeding frenzy of the beasts will swear they have never seen such a voracious appetite or ability to eat almost anything.

What is known about the Gorger is that the creature is fearless and will attack communities in small groups. Gorgers will travel in these small packs, usually at least 10 in number. It’s easy to bring one down with a few well-aimed axe blows. They become dangerous when their jaws lock onto an arm or leg. Their fearless demeanor combined with their voracious appetite has led to an increasing number of encounters with the monstrosities in recent time.
