A huge and four-legged lizard, with obvious scales and a beige, red and black colouration. The Beithir makes its home in deserts and arid lifeless plains. It is not clear what it normally sustains itself on, but it appears to happily devour the bodies of any creature that it kills, though after stripping them of apparently valuable objects first. It has the innate magical powers of Dustflash (3H), Sun's Wrath (4H) and Sun Warding (4H), which it may cast at will by sacrificing Health.

The sand Beithir is both swift and patient. It will wait motionless, often buried in sand or hidden in a gap in the rocks, waiting for the proper time to strike, and when it does so it can run at incredible speeds (Move 15) for short periods. Beithir nests are tunnels with a few chambers in which they store food and their gathered treasure (d4 Treasure 3s). This is also where they lay small clutches of leathery eggs, which hatch into tiny young Beithir after about a month. These young remain in the nest for the first couple of seasons, and then emerge as youngsters (Level 1) which will follow their parent until they mature into young adults.
