They are useful in the dry lands due to their unique water preservation ability. They chew grasses and plants and deposit a honey-like substance into pouches near its neck. Originally, this was a survival technique for the ank alone, but as they became domesticated, they have been bred to produce a much larger supply of the substance. Not only are anks extremely useful as pack animals in the deep desert, but are also great sources of nourishment in barren lands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u2014<\/em>From the<em> Journal of Jarin Plainswalker<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ank<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td colspan=\"3\"><strong>Characteristics<\/strong><\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>CV<\/strong><\/td><td>2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Stat<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Score<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>%<\/strong><\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>Speed<\/strong><\/td><td>25\u2019<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>STR<\/strong><\/td><td>14<\/td><td>70<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>HP<\/strong><\/td><td>22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>CON<\/strong><\/td><td>14<\/td><td>70<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>Dmg Mod<\/strong><\/td><td>1d4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>SIZ<\/strong><\/td><td>18<\/td><td>90<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>AV<\/strong><\/td><td>2 (Thick Hide)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>INT<\/strong><\/td><td>3<\/td><td>15<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>Class<\/strong><\/td><td>Animal<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>ACU<\/strong><\/td><td>4<\/td><td>20<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>Type<\/strong><\/td><td>Terian<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>DEX<\/strong><\/td><td>8<\/td><td>40<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>Horror<\/strong><\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>SOC<\/strong><\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><td><\/td><td><strong>Treasure<\/strong><\/td><td>Harvestables<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Attack:<\/strong> Bite 60% 1d6+2+dm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skills:<\/strong> Dodge 50%, Grapple 50%, Hide 35%, Listen 50%, Spot 50%, Stealth 40%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Special:<\/strong> Honey Globule Growth, Scent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Weaknesses:<\/strong> &#8211;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Habitat:<\/strong> Plains<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Encounter:<\/strong> Herd 2-30<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Scent<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scent allows a creature to Spot other beings by their smell alone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remnants and Reagents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honey Globule Growth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the day, the ank grows two honey globules as a byproduct of eatings and the sunlight it has absorbed.
