Thkaerth

A thkaerth was a type of woolly  mammal.

Description
"All you can think about is a human minx with wild eyes and milkbags the size of a thkaerth's!"

- Takari Moonsnow refers to Vala Thorsdotter in an argument with Galaeron Nihmedu

These animals were known for their woolly coats and faces. Female thkaerths produced milk, and their mammary glands were sometimes referred to as "milkbags".

Uses
"I don't have much stomach for thkaerth lately."

- Keya Nihmedu about jerked thkaerth meat

Thkaerth wool was used to make fleecy cloaks, and their cooked flesh was made into jerked meat.

History
"I'm sure Lord Nihmedu would take a dim view of you kissing something with more wool on his face than a thkaerth."

- Khelben Arunsun to Keya Nihmedu in regards to her relationship with Dexon

In the 14 century DR, thkaerths were known to the elves of Evereska. These elves were known to compare Vaasans to thkaerths due to their large amounts of hair. In 1371 DR, Galaeron Nihmedu owned a cloak made of thkaerth wool.
