Susboarealis

Susborealis is a species of boar herded by the Susevar Clan. They are different from their relatives of the species Sus scrofa in that they are larger, sometimes four or five feet at the shoulder, have larger tusks, usually a foot and a half long, and have a rather reddish coloration.

Physical Description
The susboarealis is usually four and a half feet at the shoulder, angling downwards to three at the hindquarters. It is six feet long, a quarter of which is the head. The tusks can be up to two feet in length, while the hooves can be half a foot in diameter.

Their fur is usually of a reddish color, while a tuft at the top of the head is a dark brown. Small bands of a blond color are on either side, and distinguish it from it's close relative, the susack.

Culinary
The susboarealis is used a lot in the cuisine of the Susevar Clan, and it is popular in the street restaurants of goblin cities.

Muscles
The musculature of the susboarealis lends itself to cuisine, due to the size and similarity to the pig.

Bacon from such animals is easy to make and interesting to eat, as it is similar to normal bacon, but saltier.

Brisket, mainly from the breast of the boar, is commonly cooked by street vendors, but is not usually used in Susevar cuisine as it takes too long to prepare. This is one of the most powerful areas of the boar, and therefore the brisket must be slow-cooked for a week at the least.

Hams from such animals are sold like hotcakes in cities, as they are large and can feed an Araquar longhouse for two meals. The meat is harder in the haunches, due to the large amount of muscles, and it must be roasted quickly at high temperatures or it will turn rock-solid.

Prosciutto, or tonkh'a, as it is known by the Susevar, is popular for the large amount of flavor. It is mostly reserved for the vivrinich of a band, or is used during celebrations. It is very expensive in cities due to the lack of cooks who can properly slice it.

Sausages from susboarealis are typically harder to make, as grinding is difficult (again, it is very well-muscled). When cooked, the sausages are harder than other sausages, and can be eaten cold. At some point, a serial killer in a city was found to have bludgeoned his victims to death using a susboarealis sausage.

At large banquets, a suckling pig will be replaced by a suckling susboarealis, as the susboarealis is almost thrice the size of a pig

Fat
The fat of the susboarealis is not very frequently used for anything other than broth. Sometimes the fat is used to grease pans and other cooking implements.

Bones
The bones of a susboarealis are typically used in broth, as they are large and can add a strong flavor to the soup. And, accordingly to their size, they are filled with a lot of bone marrow, which is enjoyed especially by Majinhar.

Hooves
The hooves of a susboarealis grow rather quickly and are popular in use for broth. Sometimes street vendors grind the hooves up, also, and put it on pork to sell it as susboarealis.

Tail
The tail, when cooked properly, is a popular Susevar delicacy and is enjoyed with a garlic sauce. Otherwise, it is used for broth, where it creates a strong umami flavor.

Skin
Like most other creatures, the susboarealis is sometimes hunted for the leather that can be made from it's skin. The leather is thicker however, and is favored due to its larger size.

The Susevar wear vests, coats, boots, hats, and gloves from the skin and fur of susboarealii. Such clothing is favored by dwellers of northern cities, where the clothing is readily bought and used as one of many layers.

Tusks
The tusks of any susboarealis are popular as carvings and handles, as they provide large amounts of ivory in comparison to other creatures. The tusks are perfect-sized as sword handles or knife blades.

Hooves
The hooves are typically carved into bowls or cups, and as they are readily available (they grow), many people use them for cookware.

The Susevar are also known to use hooves as musical instruments.

Bones
As with any domesticated animal, susboarealis bones are used for handles for knives, swords, and tomahawks, silverware, arrows, pencils (hollowed out and filled with ink).

The Susevar have a sort of harp made from the bones in the tail of susboarealis.
