[edit] Ecology
Gathra are dangerous pack animals which hunt down and devour any creature unlucky enough to be caught in the open. Devils sometimes use them as mounts.
[edit] Environment
Though predominantly found on Avernus in Baator, gathra can also be found underground on the Material Plane.
[edit] Typical physical characteristics
Gathra resemble a blend of boar and bull. They have the body of a huge, black, ugly, fiendish bovine, with a boar-like head. They have an enormous pair of horns which curve inwards on each other, and two lower tusks which stick straight up and give the impression of large, upside-down sabre-like teeth.
[edit] Alignment
Gathra, being natives of Baator, are lawful evil in alignment.
[edit] Creative origins
Gathra appeared in the 3rd Edition Fiend Folio.
