Gribblers are small, fur-covered omnivores that scuttle across the tundra with unnerving speed. Their forward-leaning gait and elongated forelimbs give them a hunched, almost primate-like profile, though whatever face they once had has collapsed into a puckered, tooth-studded maw. They scavenge more than they hunt, but desperation - or opportunity - can drive them into sudden melee scrambles. Some have developed the charming habit of lobbing whatever they can grab: ice chunks, bones, frozen filth... all fair game.

Believed to be descendants of an introduced small mammal species, Gribblers adapted rapidly to the tundra's scarcity. Exotic exposure didn't make them bigger or braver - just stranger. Their sensory organs migrated beneath dense fur for insulation, and their jaws overdeveloped to deal with nutrient-poor diets. Radiation pockets in the region may account for their erratic behavior patterns and occasional, rudimentary ranged attacks.

"If it's shaking, chittering, and throwing something at you? Congratulations - you've met a Gribbler."
