Cattle in Dereth come in two varieties: the common domesticated Cow and the large Auroch. Cows tend to be found near human establishments and are non-aggressive. Aurochs, recognizable by their shaggy coats and long horns, roam the grasslands. They do not attack on sight, but will defend their herd if it is threatened. Tales speak of even deadlier types of Auroch who dwell on the plains north of the Gharu'ndim lands.

The Auroch is the symbol of the Viamontians and adorns their armor and their banner. The Red Bull of Sanamar is the physical embodiment, but harbors a terrible secret. The great Red Bull of Sanamar is so hearty and red because the horrible thing eats hearts. Specifically, the hearts of tortured, screaming, human-like things called Fiun.
