It can be found in the far northern reaches of Ruvera, where it is well adapted to the long and bitter winters and brief summers. The skeggit is a very shaggy beast, with extremely long outer guard hairs and a dense woolly undercoat. More unusual than the coat itself, however, is the layer of moss that grows on top of it. This moss, nearly as long and shaggy as the skeggit's coat, adds a light but still warme...")

A still smaller type is known to live in the region around the Desert of Fallen Stars.
