Vornskr

Vornskr

One of Myrkr's indigenous life forms is the violent

vornskr. These vicious animals are long-legged quadrupeds

with vaguely canine muzzles, sharp teeth, and

lethal whip-like tails. Usually sedate during the day,

vornskrs are excellent nocturnal hunters. At night, they

are predators without equal in the thick forests. However,

there is no guarantee of safety even in full daylight

as the animals have been known to hunt while the sun

was high in the sky.

The vornskr's whip-like tail is an effective attack

weapon. It causes painful welts and is coated with a

mild poison which can stun creatures as large as a

human. Once stunned, the animal leaps to finish its

prey with its powerful jaws and piercing teeth.

While Luke Skywalker was on the world, the vornskr

demonstrated an unnatural hatred for the Jedi. Even

the domesticated pets in Karrde's camp reacted violently

toward Skywalker. Those in the wild did their

best to kill him.

Karrde has two vornskrs trained to serve as guard

animals and pets. By removing their tails, he found that

their normal hunting aggression was significantly reduced,

and they were easily domesticated and trained.

He has found his pet vornskrs, named Sturm and Drang,

to be loyal and affectionate toward people they are

familiar with.
