Bred for endurance and sensory acuity in the underground tunnel networks of the [[Minthal Mountains]], the Thramak plays a vital role in Minthari transport, mining, and agriculture. | ||

Like the humans themselves, the donkeys were quickly influenced by the strong presence of [[Desame]] imbuing in them a strong drive but eventually depriving them of their site ability to exist above ground. | ||
|Biology and Physical Traits=Thramaks are compact, quadrupedal mammals roughly 4.5 feet at the shoulder and 6 feet in body length. Their thick, rubbery hide ranges in tone from dark basalt to umber, providing protection from rough tunnel walls and geothermal heat. They are entirely blind; their eyes have atrophied into calloused ridges. Instead, they navigate via a combination of whiskers and hooves that can sense subtle vibrations. | |Biology and Physical Traits=Thramaks are compact, quadrupedal mammals roughly 4.5 feet at the shoulder and 6 feet in body length.
