Elephants are gigantic creatures who inhabit the warmer parts of the Continent. They are characterized by tusks and enormous trunks (elongated noses) that can catch things and manipulate the environment.[1] The tusks are the source of ivory, a highly valued hard material.[2][3][4][5]

Elephants can be tamed and used by armies. A number of these animals were shipped from Ofir to Northern Realms by mercenaries after Dulla kh'Amanni's expedition.[6]

Other "elephants"

Apart from the common Far South elephant, there are other related trunked mammals living in different areas of the world and hunted for ivory. In Zerrikania, a species of elephants is rumored to be prey of giant spiders.[7] Mastodons are hairy animals known to Nordlings because of their size that roam forested areas,[3] while mammoths are covered in thick fur and adopted to Far North tundra climate.[8][9]
