Orthrus_01 by YakoAlyarin on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

I'm building lore for my story. It will be a world filled with non-standard creatures (species). Some species will be simple, some strange / complex
I drew a lot of inspiration from existing mythology and culture.

I will talk little by little. In the future, maybe I'll change something (When will I hire a translator in the future). I hope I will not make many mistakes in grammar...

Orff (Orfus/Orthrus). Орф/Орфус. One of the races of beastmen.

Orthrus - anthro wolves with two and rarely three/one heads. The two heads in their religion represent the heart and the mind. When there is a third head, it denotes the soul. Orthrus have one name but it is divided into two/three parts for each personality/head. Orthrus with three heads are the strongest and largest individuals. Usually they become leaders / leaders of the pack. They are respected and greatly appreciated. Orthrus with one head are considered inferior. They are much weaker physically than other relatives.

The height of a single-headed Orthrus is approximately 180-220 centimeters.

The height of the two-headed Orthrus is approximately 230-280 centimeters.

The height of the three-headed Orthrus is approximately 320-400 centimeters

(Here I used Margo-Rita as an example, but she is 230 centimeters tall in the original)
