Native Shuriman Creatures
Brackern are ancient crystalline creatures found throughout the Shuriman continent, living in various clans across the desert regions.
Dormun are massive, armored creatures with an innate ability to locate hidden water sources. Nomadic tribes often build permanent settlements on their backs, forming a symbiotic relationship where they remove parasites from the Dormun.

Kmiros are giant scarabs that hunt in swarms, often preying on travelers. They serve as common prey for Rammus.

Ralsiji are aggressive, minotaur-like quadrupeds with distinctive humped backs and thick horns.
Shuriman Camels are well-adapted for desert travel and widely used for transportation, though they remain vulnerable to predators like the Xer'Sai.
Sandswimmers are large creatures that travel in predictable patterns beneath the desert sands, using webbed feet and narrow bodies to "swim" through the terrain while feeding on small desert creatures.
Skallashi are revered quadrupedal herbivores known for their long legs and bad tempers. They serve as beasts of burden across Shurima, often decorated with protective symbols and charms. Owning one indicates prosperity.

Cho'Gath is a Void-born creature driven by insatiable hunger. This massive behemoth grows larger by consuming matter, converting it into increased muscle mass and hardened carapace.

Cho'Gath possesses devastating abilities including:
- Vorpal Spikes that impale enemies
- Ground-rupturing seismic attacks
- Feral Scream that silences foes
- Feast ability to devour enemies and grow stronger
The creature embodies the Void's desire to consume all life, using its complex biology to convert matter into growth or deadly weapons. Despite its primal nature, Cho'Gath shows intelligence and takes pleasure in terrorizing its prey.
