Orang-pendaks, also known as orang pendeks,1 are small, reclusive cousins of sasquatches dwelling in warm climes.2[citation needed]

Appearance

Orang-pendaks have hunched posture and shaggy fur ranging from tawny or reddish to dark brown or black. They range from three to five feet tall as adults, weigh up to 150 pounds, and they are quite strong for their size.2[citation needed]

Society

Orang-pendaks have a natural empathy with apes, particularly gibbons and orangutans, and often train apes and monkeys to hunt and fight for them. They live in semi-nomadic tribes, staying in an area until food runs out when they move on. Many tribes follow a regional pattern to this migration, allowing parts of the jungle to recover and avoiding gathering too much and preventing the jungle to recuperate.2[citation needed]

Orang-pendaks are predominantly herbivorous, but do supplement their diets with meat. They are extremely unnerved whenever they are riding another creature or on a vehicle.2[citation needed]

On Golarion

Orang-pendaks are common on the continent of Arcadia.3
