The Arkoudai (AR-koo-dye) are a species of towering, slow-moving ground sloths which inhabit the Southern [Meteor Continent].

Description
NEED TO FILL THIS IN.

Arkoudai are the largest ground-dwelling animal on Kournia. They move at a pace of about 1km/h, their massive heads moving side to side, eating every bit of vegetation in their path. As a result, the vegetation of [Meteor Continent] tends to be fast-growing and close to the ground.

In more modern times, humans have been known to set up small townships on the backs of arkoudai, safe from the Direwolves which are unable to climb and will not attempt to take down a creature of this size.

Metagame Notes
The word arkoudai comes from the Greek word αρκούδα  (Engl. bear). The Greek's didn't really have a word for 'sloth' and so I used 'bear' to represent a kind of ground sloth.''' I have tried to keep the earliest words by the Kataigithans and their descendants based on Greek translations. Even though this isn't the original inhabitants who named them, but the later Barbarians, I still thought arkoudai was a cool word.'''

This creature is massive. Technically it should not exist, as gravity does not allow something this massive to pump blood through it. Perhaps it needs multiple hearts to exist? Either way, it should not exist, but it does.
