Hog Knight monster 1078

newmonster        "Hog Knight"
descr             "Where other nations consider the horse the foremost of animals, the Hoburghers are most closely associated with the swine.  The prized hogs are more than just a favorite food.  In many Hoburg towns one should not be surprised to see a family outing with a hog on a leash accompanying them and participating in the traditional pie eating.  A matter of pride for many Hoburg farmers is the yearly “fattening the hog” competition, in which the farmers with the fattest pigs of different ages win recognition and a fine trophy.  From Schmalzburg comes the sow butter, which is widely acclaimed among Hoburghers.  During the Troll Wars some of the richest pig-farmers gathered together and set up a well armed unit that rode on a particularly fierce breed of hogs.  The hog used for this unit is usually co-bred with wild boars in order to provide a gamier taste to the Dark Forest smoked ham.  Though expensive, the peppery sweetness of the well larded ham is not something one ought to miss out on."
