The diverse wildlife of Shurima includes several unique species adapted to the harsh desert environment. Here are the most notable creatures:

Brackern Ancient crystalline beings found in various clans across the Shuriman continent.

Dormun Massive creatures with chitinous armor that can sense hidden water sources. Some nomadic tribes build permanent homes on their backs.

Mwatis Goat-like creatures with plated head casques. Their wool and plates are valuable for insulation and felting.

Outerbeasts Void creatures including the Xer'Sai that plague the southern deserts. The queen Rek'Sai is the largest and most dangerous of her species.

Sandswimmers Large quadrupeds that travel in predictable patterns under the sand, feeding on small desert creatures. Scavengers often ride on their backs.

Skallashi Hardy quadrupedal herbivores used as beasts of burden. They are known for their long legs and bad tempers but are treated with reverence. Their hides are often decorated with protective symbols.

Taric is the Aspect of the Protector, a celestial guardian of life, love and beauty. Originally from Demacia, he was exiled after failing his duties as a Dauntless Vanguard knight. Upon climbing Mount Targon seeking redemption, he became imbued with celestial power.

Known as the Shield of Valoran, Taric now stands as Runeterra's protector, wielding incredible power to defend all forms of life and beauty in the world. His close friendship with Garen led to his exile being the Crown of Stone challenge rather than execution. He maintains a particular enmity toward the Void due to its opposition to the beauty and life he protects.
