Main mounts and pack animals of Encounters in the Frontier.
Left to right:
Yakor Camel: I already wrote most of it's lore here. Since horses don't exist in this setting, this fast camel is used. They are similar to dromedaries in behaviour and build, but more social and tame. They lack a hump, so they are not as resistant to dehydration and hunger as dromedaries are, but are still more so than horses. There exists many breeds of this species, here I drew two of them:
-Plateau yakor: This strong and sturdy breed is native to the northwestern plateau and a very important part of the identity of its inhabitants. The peoples of the plateau use this breed as a means of transportation, war mount, pack animal and as draft animals. They use their characteristic mane to create felt fabrics, perfect for insulation in the winter. This breed grows and sheds its mane seasonally. During the conquest of the plateau by the Sun Empire, this animal is also used in other regions.
-Yakor pony: This breed is mostly used by the steppe nomads of the setting, alongside other larger builds. This animals are not meant to carry a lot of weight, so they are used by mounted archers, skirmishers and for hunting. Their low center of gravity and sturdy legs makes them very maneuverable and fast. This is also the breed used for dragon hunting. This breed has not been as succesful in other regions of the continent where heavier camelry is prefered.
-Syzer: This animal is closely related to the yakor camel and inhabits in the savannah like environment of the southeast. They live in small packs and are sometimes hunted by humans (wich is a hard task since they are known for being quite agressive). They have been many attempts to domesticate this mighty creature, all without success (similar to irl zebras). Still, its posible to breed it with a yakor camel to obtain a Camule.
-Donpir: Closely related to the undomesticated forest tapir, this animal evolved to live plains and convergently evolved with irl horses in many ways, such as only using their central hoof for support. They retain their juvenile stripes in adulthood, but not as camuflage but as a way to blend with each other in large groups, such as zebras do. These animals are not often used as mounts, but as pack animals, since they are strong, obedient and efective on uneven terrain.
-Bakyor: This chalicothere is the largest domesticated animal in the setting (the macouse is not domesticated but tamed). They are used by merchants in land trade routes. They don't have as much stamina as a irl camel but are much stronger and very good at traversing very uneven terrain, as with their unusual hooves they can even climb.
-Camule: The hybrid between a yakor camel (usually a large breed) and a wild syzer. These animals show hybrid vigor, and are larger and stronger than both of its parents. They merge the ideal characteristics of both species and are large and strong like a syzer and hardworking and tame like a yakor. They are unfertile and the contions needed for a wild syzer male to breed with a yakor mare are hard to replicate. They are mainly produced in the southernmost región of the Sun Empire and are often gifted between rulers in diplomatic trips. They are a luxury animal sometimes called the golden camel as a reference to their coloration and value.
