Ghrgii

==Species==
The Ghrgii - Bas Moncai (Raidhsénian), Death Ape, is less a tribe and more  a sub species of humanoid that are indigenous to the northern lands of the Abhainnian continent . While the Ghrgii are driven mainly by instinct and lack the sentience for diplomacy and reason or to make rational decisions, they apparently have the mental capacity to engage in torture for fun. The argument could be made that taxanomically speaking, the Ghrgii reside in the ambiguous ground between man and beast.
They tend to be broad-shouldered, flat-faced, stocky and bow-legged.
They are extremely violent and opportunistic predators that tend to prey on animals and humans alike, operating in small packs but in constellations of tens of thousands. Males in particular are the most aggressive, who kill children and rape human women, often with implements such as bear tooth clubs. Male warrior Ghrgii are particulary strong and have been known to remove limbs from live human victims with ease. The Red Ghrgii are a breed of Ghrgii who are particularly aggressive that wield axes fashioned from entire bear jaws. Their red appearance possibly comes from the fact they are usually covered with the blood of their victims.
They are a nomadic species that move from one human constellation to another until all humans in the area have been killed or eaten or until their own population explodes. There is no specific motive or reason behind the direction of Ghrgii migration paths, instead blindly choosing to follow geographic features such as valleys or rivers.
Compared to humans, the Ghrgii are incredibly stupid but they display some remedial tool making abilities. Their weapon of choice is a large wooden club lined with bear teeth and display some evidence of a social heirarchy. Their cheiftains wear robes made of children's hair, and some of them have necklaces made from human baby skulls.
==Experiments==
Raidhsénian experiments with captured Ghrgii revealed firstly that males in particular are the hardest and more dangerous to domesticate. Secondly, that male Ghrgii respond badly to castration, sending them into a violent rampage or into a state of catatonia where they starve themselves to death.
==Folklore==
It is said that the Ghrgii are the trolls of the legends old. They are said to have been born from a goddess of ice. Solastics believe they are the spawn of Dorchadas .
==Ghrúogh Ghrúgarrach==
It is rumoured that the Ebéall King and warlord, Ghrúgarrach was half Ghrgii as he possessed an abnormally large, ape-like stature and physical strength. Also that his mother was raped by one before childbirth. However she died during the delivery and took the real identity of his father to her grave.
==Sháb, and involvement in Bághnard war==
Sháb is the chief of a ghrgii pack that is known for using weapons they have stolen from humans. They also knock out human teeth and fingers, and  pierce their lips and brows with the bones, and their clubs with the teeth. Sháb is also known as "the mauler", as he is very large - even for a ghrgii, and uses two clubs the width of tree trunks, filled with the teeth of men, bears, wolves and wolverines. He strikes with one club while dodging with the other, and vice versa. However, after he was hit in the eye by a Carcholl arrow, he is cautious, and prefers to attack  defenceless civilians with his band of ape warriors. They killed over a thousand people around Abád before the population  fled. Around 32 TFD Raidhsénia began its onward incursion into Salmon territory in retaliation for the Raidhsénia city massacre, Sháb's horde begins to move towards Raidhsénian territory with 900 Ghrgii.
