See Geru (5e Creature). Despite their bestial nature, geru can be surprisingly organized and effective warriors. They are known to build walled settlements defended by slingers and rock throwers, and their well-trained fighters can more than match the likes of hylian soldiers. These statistics represent such a fighter. Source |
