Thanoi, also known as Walrus-Folk, are a race of walrus-like bipeds in the Dragonlance role-playing game. Thanoi appear as 8-foot tall walrus-like beings with thick, blubbery skin and long claws, which are used for moving about on the ice. Both genders possess two-foot long tusks. Thanoi wear no clothing. They are inhabitats of the Icewall Glacier. Thanoi are generally brutish and savage, and the majority of their time is spent finding and eating food. They are a nomadic race, traveling along the glaciers of their homeland in search of food, mainly consisting of fish. They have been at war with the Ice Folk nomads for centuries. Thanoi are immune to cold and can stay underwater for great lengths of time.
