'''Hoskas''' were large, lumbering herd creatures native to the plains of [[Essowyn]], where they were hunted by [[Saurton]]s. They were also raised for food on [[Agamar]]. The Hoskas gathered in herds of several thousand and migrated and stampeded across the plains, eating and trampling everything in their path.

The Hoskas were huge, hoofed quadrapeds standing nearly three meters at the shoulder and capable of running at speeds of up to 15 kilometers per hour. They were predominantly black, but combinations of brown, tan, yellow, pale red and even white could be found among the hoska population. Each of these huge creatures had a set sharp horns which were used to spear anything that got in their way.
