Gorilla, Silverback

A muscular ape, large as a bugbear, glares at you from beneath the tree. It's covered in thick black fur highlighted with silver hair on its backside.

Gorillas are the largest and strongest of the natural apes, indeed of all primates, found in the wild. Though they are excellent climbers, they are predominantly ground-dwelling. And though they are formidable and intimidating opponents, they are actually herbivorous and seek reclusion from the civilized world.

A silverback gorilla, as the dominant males are sometimes called, can weigh well over 400 pounds. They are much stronger than humans and their punch is deadly.

Gorillas usually run on all fours, but have humanoid-like hands capable of carrying and manipulating objects.
