Malkyrk

These large, mutant, wolf-like creatures often found work as the 'guard dogs' of the Yann and Dailga due to their quick tempers, volatile natures and dangerous arrays of claws and fangs. They were the only known animals capable of speech, albeit not especially coherent. As such, they were thought to be unnatural and suspected to be the work of the Darklands' Dark Mages. They are considered extinct since the Fall of Maia.
