Description

A yukuk is a creature originating from the plane of elemental mineral. The shape of its body resembles a leopard with three pairs of legs around its body, such that when it runs on four legs the remaining set is facing directly upwards. Its skin is hairless, stony, and covered in colorful, protruding, mineral growths. They have long tails that end in large club like rocks. Where they would have eyes, the yukuk's head is covered with mineral growth and can turn it completely around as its body rotates. Its fangs and claws are diamond sharp. Their bite can turn someone to stone, which the yukuk then breaks apart and eats.

Habitat: Underdark

Steedling
