Flecked with bits of mica and quartz crystal, the krynch shimmers in even the dimmest light. Moving with a fluid grace that belies the granite composition of its body, the creature has a barrel chest and thick, powerful limbs. The krynch has no visible ears or nose on its perfectly spherical head. Its mouth is fixed in a perpetual scowl and its glossy black eyes glare at you with malevolent intensity.
