Description
More than beasts but less than men, the brutal ape-men prowl the jungle, abducting travelers to be sacrificed in profane, cannibalistic rituals.
Ape-man beast masters capture and train jungle creatures to serve and protect the tribe. Many tribes train packs of apes or monkeys, but other creatures such as jungle cats, hyenas, and even dinosaurs can be found under the tribe's control.
