the
Moonshadow Tigers
Their origin is as
shrouded in mystery as . . . well, . . . pretty much everything
else about them. All we really know is that there are two of them,
and they're really really really big. They can travel in the usual
ways (only rather faster) of running or walking or jumping, but
they can also travel by riding on moonbeams. Which makes them
really terribly fast and also completely unpredictable. They pop
up in all sorts of places, rarely with any kind of warning first.
They are the guardians of Incunabula, and some say that they are
the oldest living creatures in the land. Most Incunabulans believe
that one Tiger is a he and the other a she, but no one's been
brave enough to ask yet. They are strong, fierce and decidedly
not-to-be-messed-with. No one is sure if the Tigers are magical
creatures; nobody's seen them using magic, apart from riding moonbeams,
but they are immune to the effects of the Land of Infinite Variation.
They are the heart of Incunabula as much as they are its muscle
and sinew, and no one cares to imagine this land without them.
