MammalsOverview
The Phiomia is a pig-like mammal resembling an elephant relative. It has tusks and a stunted trunk, making it excellent for digging up plantlife. While primarily used as a pack mule, it can also be ridden. Phiomia are known for producing large quantities of fertilizer when fed Stimberries, making them valuable for farming tribes.
