Achlis

By Crusader1307

From Ancient Roman Arcane History of the 1st BC, comes The Achlis. Possibly a now extinct Cryptoid, The Achlis was said to be the size of an Elk. However, they had very strange characteristics. The most telling was their large mouth with lips that literally touched the ground. Being an issue with eating, it was said the Achlis had to graze ''backwards''. The Beast developed the ability to move rearwards as naturally as one would walk forwards. The Achlis slept inside large hollow trees, which had it easier to hunt them, apparently into extinction. No skeletal evidence remains however, and many think they were simply a ''Fable'' Creature.
