Background: Gargantua were large, ape-like mammals known for being shy and easily scared despite their formidable size. They could stand on two, three-toed feet but walked with the assistance of their three-fingered, more dexterous hands, balled into fists. Gargantua had a deep roar that struck fear in sentient beings unfamiliar with the gentle creatures.
Gargantua had two large, protruding maxillary incisors, which were blunt, and four mandibular canines, which were still visible with the creature’s mouth closed. Their skin was purplish-gray, which was exposed on the ventral abdomen, hands and feet, dorsal digits, and face. The distal forelimbs, mandible, and midline dorsal back had auburn fur, whereas the rest of the body had dark brown fur. The forehead down to the nasal dorsum had longer white fur. Gargantua ears were large and superiorly pointed, and the short, flat snout sat near the eyes. The eyes of Gargantua were large, with green sclera and deep black pupils. Their sheer strength was enough to cause massive property damage if spooked.
Gargantua were easily scared and preferred to run than to fight perceived threats. They were a nocturnal species, often seeking caves’ safety and darkness to sleep during the day.
