Template:Waxwool Ewe
Waxwool Ewe was a cosmetic mount skin in a pre-order pack.[1]
Scores of Waxwool Ewe were a common sight in the Riverlands before the Harbinger Apocalypse. In the present day, only a few herds remain. These were brought through the Divine Gates by their owners upon their return from Sanctus.
Of the Waxwool variety, the ewes are stronger and less temperamental, and thus, the best choice for riding or hauling. The animal’s nourishing milk, docile demeanor, and quality wool made them invaluable to the settlers on Sanctus, so their eventual reintroduction to Verra seemed inevitable.
These oversize, good-natured dray beasts are nearly impervious to rapid changes in climate, and their many overlapping layers of thick, oily wool will protect them from the heaviest precipitation. Males and females both sport wide, curled horns coiled at the side of the head. They trudge tirelessly on their split-hooves which are hard and steely enough to spark when they strike the cobbles of the road.
Waxwool shepherds often braid, ornament, and bead the ropy black wool of this rare breed to keep it out of their red, watery eyes, and ink-black faces. Without such treatment, one wonders how a Waxwool Ewe can see at all.[1]
