}}
Nightmaws are bipedal quadrupeds, standing on powerful back legs that bear most of their weight
== Behavior and Abilities ==
Nightmaws are nocturnal.{{book ref|sixth}} Many of a nightmaw's normal senses are relatively dull, as they are almost completely deaf and blind; however, their sense of smell is incredible, and they have the ability to track minds by detecting the Cognitive activity of their prey. This makes them extremely dangerous predators. They are also clever, for beasts; in fact, some think nightmaws have begun to realize that humans make use of the mind-shielding Aviar and can only be tracked by scent.
== History ==
When [[Vathi]] and [[Sixth of the Dusk]] crossed Patji at night to prevent employees of the [[Northern Interests Trading Company]] from engaging the machine from the [[Ones Above]], a nightmaw came across their trail. It followed them, bursting out of the trees and surprising them. However, Vathi shot it with her spear
