- Art by Bethany Berg
Another animal of Tikor is done! Meet an Ankole, a type of bovine on Tikor. While from the head down they can seem similar to other animals on Tikor, the Ankole is different. Very different.
While creatures of the Animal Kingdom are already naturally tuned into the forces of the universe, the Ankole stand toward the top. This is immediately evident in the raw, crackling power that leaps between the peaks of there mammoth horns.
Humans don’t quite understand the connection the Ankole have with the Etherforce or deities, but if when an Ankole is slain the effects are felt for hundreds of kilometers. Whatever the Ankole are, they are protected by a higher power.
The electric blue crown that grows larger as an Ankole grows older only further shows their innate and divine connection.
And no, you can NOT ride them!

The Art

This is a very cool concept. I love the lore behind them and how they play into something greater.
