gulbavian

These yellow-furred, gaunt baboons have chalk-white muzzles and their lambent eyes show a disturbed intellect.  Capable of using tools (including simple weapons) and tactics, they understand language but speak in barks, grunts and screams interspersed with ancient phrases and nonsensical babbling.

The gulbavian is slightly taller than a normal baboon, though wasted and gaunt.  Their muzzles and rears are chalk-white and not used for signaling.  They can eat anything but show a preference for rotten or sour foods, including carrion.  They may bite with sharpened fangs or use simple weapons like axes, clubs and maces. A band of gulbavians are led by a randomly selected leader, who if morale breaks is as likely to be turned on as nursed back to health.  It is whispered they originated from a chaotic priesthood cursed by their patron.  Their increasing numbers and fecundity suggests a malevolent purpose.
