Dircaan

DircaansFirst mention: https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/5186662 are a diverse species of giant reptilians that inhabit eastern Toraan, particularly Dehrthaa and the Weeping Plains. There are both wild and domesticated dircaans. The Okur-Durcan nomadic people of the Weeping Plains are known for riding them and were likely the first to domesticate them. The people of Dehrthaa then likely learned this from them. Alongside elephants, such behemoths play an important part in Dehru life and warfare.
== Subspecies ==
There are six known subspecies of dircaan, though more than that number likely exist. These are: 
* The one-horned dircaan 
* The tri-horned dircaan
* The comb-headed dircaan
* The small dircaan
* The winged dircaan
* The water dircaan 
All are herbivorous with the exception of the winged and water dircaans. Comb-headed and one-horned dircaans also eat small wildlife and fish on occasion. 
The small dircaan is too small to ride and occupies a niche similar to that of goats and sheep in some communities. The water dircaan is semiaquatic, and so is adapted to aquatic environments and is generally to be found stalking swamps, rivers, and wetlands.
