These all but mythical creatures are said to live in small tribes populating snowy mountain peaks. They are large white-furred creatures who prefer arctic climates where their natural strength and appearance play a major role in every situation.

Yetis prefer to stalk their prey before ambushing, where they let their sharp teeth and claws do the main work. Their fur is white in winter and brown in summer, and while it protects them from cold it is quite susceptible to fire and heat in general.

Living in mostly secluded areas, Yeti are often the main characters in the stories the travelers share, describing horrific encounters that make the names of these creatures known, names such as Senga, Inorreth, Novros, Lutumo, and Usahn.

These mythical creatures are said to stalk the mountain peaks and slopes, preferring to live in cold and freezing temperatures where their thick white fur can serve its purpose. Stalking the unwary travelers and other unsuspecting creatures is almost a daily routine for them, and their sharp claws and teeth make sure the job is done once they pounce. There are many debates over the very existence of a Yeti, where one side says it’s just people’s wild imagination, while those who claim to be victims of such an encounter feel insulted by such a ridiculous claim. Think about where the creature lives, what kind of a life they live there, might they have a more complex background, are there any long-term goals, and create a name worthy of this mysterious legendary monster.
