ALTORA was a planet located within the Altora system. It orbited a single sun, and the planet's southern regions had a warm climate. Those areas featured plains and savannahs covered in tall grasses. Altora's southern grasslands were home to altagaks, stealthy and fast predatory reptilian quadrupeds referred to by the planet's natives as "high speed death on four legs,".
ALTAGAK was a reptilian creature from the planet Altora. Known for its cunning, stealth, and speed, the altagak was thought to be the apex predator of its homeworld.

IT was a four-legged reptilian predator with foot claws and a spiny tail. Two long tusks protruded on either side of the creature's sinuous snout, which retracted during feeding to display several sets of rending teeth. They also had a spinal mane which adult altagaks expanded into a threatening display to discourage competitors.
OTHER than the altagak, which was one of the few predatory species on Altora, the fauna of the planet's grasslands included a variety of large herd animals. Altagaks would frequently hunt the pack creatures for food, but shortages of game sometimes forced the predators to attack warm-blooded Humanoids instead.
THE Altoran natives came to regard the altagaks as "high speed death on four legs", and the species became known for its ability to stalk silently and attack quickly.
ALTORA had a fragile economy supported by ranch farming, although it was threatened by altagak attacks on herd animals. The long average lifespan and alpha predator status of the former creatures caused the local ranchers to place large bounties on altagak hides.
