Gludron

Large mammals with shells of bony plate found primarily in Gruthar. Durable yet docile, these mammalian creatures are popular throughout the Dominion, where they are farmed for their meat and to fashion their hides into armor.

Biology
Most grow somewhere between 4.5ft and 7ft long, but some ogre bred Gludron can grow up to 14ft long, becoming living siege weapons against Lokusi hives. They are generally regarded as cute and easy to tame but stupid by much of the Dominion, though well-bred specimens can be surprisingly intelligent.

Domestication
Some breeds are kept as mounts, beasts of burden, pets or even warbeasts, particularly amongst gremlins and ogres. Their heavy tails are ideal for fending off predatory animals when traveling between Dominion settlements or in the wild, and they're also of great use mashing Lokusi. The creatures burrows can sometimes weaken structures, so they tend to be kept in more rural areas or under monitoring in larger settlements to avoid causing any trouble.
