Relics[]
Documents[]
A Haunting[]
- Location: Kuwaq Yaku
This is the story of local caverns rumored to be haunted. Ghostly noises coming from deep within the bowels of the earth... No one who's entered the caves has ever returned... Mysterious sounds, something between the booming of thunder and the howling of dogs... And a mysterious light glowing within.
Sisimite[]
- Location: Peruvian Jungle
Every part of the world seems to have its own mythical forest-dwelling bipedal creature. Around here it's known as the Sisimite, the "guardian of the forest." Described as large and ape-like, it's rumored to kill male humans on sight, but takes the females to its cave for mating purposes.
Yaaxil[]
Inside the wall
- Location: The Hidden City
Yucatec
The Paititians who wrote this believed that something called the Yaaxil live beneath Paititi. According to this record, these beings are strongest during astrological events - which is consistent with the legends - but they also attack and feed on humans, but that's not the behavior that usually appears in the stories.
From this description, what they call the Yaaxil is the same type of creature I encountered in Kuwaq Yaku.
