Ceiron Wars

Katampras are the giants of the Eastern Sorién. In addition to their incredible strength, extraordinary resilience and their active immunity system that protects them from any kind of illness, they also are known for their lack of intelligence which overshadows even the anielen...

In actuality, when the region they live in and their needs are considered, it can be seen that katampras do not require to be intelligent either. Today, katampras live in the Kakareta Mountains between the Aniele and the Jeilkron lands; two vassal states of the Galljan Empire. They eat generally the anielens, sometimes each other and any big animal they can find. Just like bears, katampras can consume any kind of plant and fruit.

The Jeils usually hunt katampras and sell them to the Galljan Empire. Obviously this is a very dangerous hunt, however its profit also is extraordinary. For nearly two centuries, the Galljan Empire has been building farms to train its own katampras and moving baby katampras to other farms in order to try and tame them. Although katampras don't have a very trainable intelligence, at least with these training programs a less violent attitude toward the humans was achieved and it was made possible for them to act in a more disciplined manner in battles.

Katampras are normally solitary creatures and only meet other katampras to breed or sometimes to kill. For this reason, it is hard to use them in battles that requires organized movement. Just like elephants, katampras can also go out of control in battles. In the case of losing the control over a katampra, to prevent it harming other katampras or soldiers on its own side it has to be killed. Due to this, there are collars equipped with special mechanisms around their necks. However, it is hard to say that the collars serve their purpose all the time.
