CHARACTER SYNOPSIS

The Yruuk are a very primitive type of a monster inhabiting our planet. Existing for thousands of years, they have slightly evolved and mutated over the years making their skin change to be more fitting to the environment. After the intelligent civilization of Moanians that lived there had vanished, they slowly started overtaking the ruins and making it another one of their places to live in. The Yruuk are very slow creatures however, they more than make this up with their size, tough skin and strength

RESEARCH NOTES

I took a lot of inspiration and idea from a bull and rhinoceros. The Yruuk should be double to triple the size of the main character. The monster will have been inspired by the art of Ken Barthelmey.
