Abus

The Abus (or Abai, plural) are ancient beasts. They resemble giant apes with monstrous features. Their teeth are frozen peaks and they can breathe ice in the same manner as dragons breathe fire. They dwell in frozen peaks and mountains, places that are rarely visited by other people of the world and thus, are considered creations of the imagination. They are often used in stories by the Dwarves and the Freelanders to frighten children but they are very much real. They awake from their summer slumber to dwell in frozen lands looking for food. They are drawn by living flesh and blood and will seek to devour it without hesitation as it eases the pain they constantly feel in their throats due to the immense frost they breathe.
