Gor'Tog mounts, called by special cowbells.

Description

The tarupamki is a hulking beast with a thick head and wide, curled horns. It has a broad back, ideal for carrying heavy loads and thick, powerful legs. It is approximately eighteen hands in height and has a coat of matted, salt and pepper colored hairs. The tarupamki is stubborn, foul-tempered, and smells like
