Monster:Kirin
The body of a Kirin is covered in irridescent, brightly colored, rock-hard scales. Fur covers the head and neck of the animal, and they possess long, swishing tails also covered in fur. They are beautiful creatures, very colorful and fairly rare. They possess a noble looking face with an often pale snout. Sometimes Kirin grow a wispy beard, such as that present on a Markhor, a distant animal relation. Kirin possess the rectangular pupils inherent in members of similar goat-like species, giving them a wide range of vision and excellent night-vision. They have small, flat teeth.
Kirin are found in areas of rocky terrain and high elevations. Griffs sometimes attack Kirin, thinking them easy prey, but Kirin present a difficult opponent when cornered, using their long horns and thick skulls to butt and gore their opponents.
Kirin are herbivores, subsisting on foliage. They are rarely confrontational or violent towards humanoids, but are very, very intelligent, and may sometimes lead unwary humanoids intentionally into peril. Kirin are mostly diurnal. Kirin meat is considered a delicacy in some places, and they are sometimes used as mounts, usually by the wealthy or powerful, as they have little prowess in battle as war-mounts. Kirin are also used by mountain-dwellers as trail guides and beasts of burden, as they are very adept at navigating treacherous slopes and mountain passes. "Following in the footsteps of the Kirin" is a common phrase meaning to be very cautious or careful.
Stories frequently circulate about the capacity for flight in Kirin, but this rumor currently has no concrete proof or legitimacy and could simply be a result of art and fiction.
