Orrids

Of the many monsters that live in the world beyond the magic curtain of Een, Orrids are some of the smallest. They are still terribly dangerous creatures, however. They leap about on all four legs like giant fleas and they have sharp fangs and a pair of curled horns, which they use for charging into their intended victims. They are nasty and vicious, and prefer to attack in herds. They feed on a variety of forest creatures, though they will not eat creatures that can speak, such as animals from the Land of Een.

Orrids have no specific homeland. They live in little herds scattered about the wilderness. Most of their communities are built high up on rocky cliffs. Orrids are adept climbers themselves, and have no difficulty in reaching places that seem inaccessible to other creatures.

Kendra Kandlestar encountered many Orrids while on her search for the Door to Unger.
