Fenris - Fauna: Many studies conducted by the Adeptus Mechanicus have determined that the animal life of Fenris is the most dangerous found on any Imperial world, including that of Catachan. The most dangerous species of animal life on Fenris include:Bladefish - Though dangerous like most things on Fenris, these relatively small fish are consumed in vast quantities by the larger predators of Fenris' oceans during the Season of Fire.Carnyx - Mammal native to Fenris, the carnyx's horns are much sought after for their use as drinking horns and armour ornamentations.Drakes - Drakes are great flying reptiles that resemble the ancient Terran legend of the dragon, who often hunt using the hot air currents generated by volcanic eruptions and lava flows.Fenrisian Giant Elk - Fenrisian giant elks are massive mammalian quadrupeds whose towering racks of antlers are razor sharp and can cut a man to pieces within seconds. They are a larger breed than their distant cousins that once roamed Terra long ago, but are far larger creatures and more fearsome and aggressive than their extinct predecessors.Fenrisian Mammoth - The Fenrisian mammoth is a gigantic shaggy quadruped evolutionarily homologous to the ancient and extinct Terran mastodon. It can crush a man beneath its great padded feet or skewer him on its long ivory tusks.Fenrisian Wolf - The Fenrisian Wolf is a semi-sentient carnivore similar in appearance to the Terran dire wolf that grows in size from that of a small horse up to that of an Imperial armoured vehicle. They are considered among the most intelligent and deadly of predators in the galaxy and make use of chillingly efficient pack-hunting strategies. The Primarch Leman Russ was said to have been raised as an infant by a female Fenrisian Wolf and to have kept as his companions two of the largest examples of the species, named Freki and Geri.Blackmane Wolves - Reputably the largest sub-species of Fenrisian Wolves, the mighty Blackmane wolf can grow to be as large as a Rhino armoured personnel carrier.Thunderwolves - A sub-species of the Fenrisian Wolf, the Thunderwolves are massive beasts, so large and strong that they can be used as mounts by fully-armored Space Marines.Fjorulalli - Known to native Fenrisians as the Great Seal-Mother.Great White Bears - Fenrisian great white bears are monstrous carnivores similar to the Terran polar bear who are large enough to assault human buildings.Gyrfalkon - One of the few avian species capable of surviving on Fenris, they are grey in color and swift in the hunt. The Gyrfalkon, like almost every species on Fenris, is a skilled predator.Gyrhawk - A predator bird native to Fenris.Hoggorm - A poisonous serpent native to Fenris.Hrossvalur - Sea creatures native to Fenris.Hvaluri - Massive sea beasts native to Fenris.Ice Fiend - The ice fiend is a great, bipedal, white-furred carnivorous primate very similar to the creatures known as the yeti in ancient Terran folk tales. They are approximately the height of an Astartes (about 7 feet) and their blood is known to be extremely acidic.Ice Trolls - Ice trolls are even larger relatives of the ice fiend who dwell on the continent of Asaheim and are semi-sentient to boot. They stand taller than a Dreadnought and use trees as clubs, whilst their jaws are so formidable that they can crack even ceramite. They present a constant danger to anyone moving openly across the glaciers of the northern continent, including Space Wolves Astartes and Neophytes.Ice Wyrm - The ice wyrm is a massive, white, fur-covered reptile similar to a giant snake that makes its lair deep beneath the glaciers of Asaheim. It emerges from the ice to strike at any prey that it senses walking across its frigid home.Konungur - A rare breed of mammalian beast native to the mountains of Fenris. Extremely hardy, the Konungur have twisted horns, rear legs the width of a man's waist, fused rib cages, spiked spinal ridges and hooves and no less than four lungs to breath the thin air of the Fenrisian mountains.Kraken - A kraken is a massive carnivorous sea species similar to a giant Terran squid, who are denizens of Fenris' great oceans. Some Tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus believe they may have evolved from a feral Tyranid bioform adapted for underwater combat that lost its connection to the Hive Mind many thousands of standard years ago.Kroxar - Predator beasts native to Fenris that are often hunted in ritual combat.Kryll - These aquatic creatures similar to Terran plankton and krill that are native to Fenris' seas are consumed in great masses by the larger oceanic predators during the Season of Fire.Ripperfish - A Ripperfish is an aquatic carnivorous fish similar to a barracuda but much larger in size that can flense the flesh from a man's bones in mere seconds.Saenyeti - A mammal native to Fenris that is part bison/part elk. The saenyeti are massive and aggressive beasts with immense horns that act as sonic sensors.Sea Dragon - The sea dragon is a monstrously large reptilian predator that lives in the Fenrisian Worldsea. It is hunted by the Fenrisian tribes for its strong hide, which is used in the construction of longships and houses.Sea-Orm - Sea serpents that are native to the great oceans of Fenris.Skriekre - Prey animal that is native to Fenris.Tilbrád - A small and agile prey beast native to the islands of Fenris.
