Beings that are biophages are those who eat and survive by the consumption of other living and materials or various nutrients that reside in the earth or native terrain.
Animals are nonhumanoid creatures that are a natural part of the fantasy ecology. Some of them have magical powers, but most are unintelligent and lack any society or language. Animals include all varieties of ordinary animals with several subtypes: amphibian, arthropod, avian, mammal, primeval, and reptile. Many animals have zero scores for mind or spirit. Unless otherwise noted, animals of zero quality will automatically fail any preservation save.
The notable group exception is primeval animals. Perhaps one of the most powerful defenses of the dire beasts is their resistance to Mind and Spirit attacks. Any preservation save of involving sleep, charm or fear will automatically save for all members of the primeval sub group.

Ryu (Reptile)

Ryu are wingless serpent-like lizards up to 12 feet in length with two front legs which have deadly claws. They have a very dragon-like appearance in their heads but are not related in any way. They have more of an “Asian dragon” appearance to them. Because of this association to dragons, some small groups or villages who have encountered them mistake them for minor spirits, demons or even deities, but this race is nothing more than an animal. Ryu tend to be timid and wish to be left alone; however, when perturbed, they can be very formidable fighters.
