‘’Said’’ to live in The Himalayan Mountains of Tibet – ‘’Xing Xing’’ may be an off-shoot of the notorious ‘’Yeti’’ or ‘’Abominable Snowman’’. The Creatures are said to resemble typical Orangutans (Apes), but have long fangs and claws. They live on the foothills of many Mountains in The Himalayan, Xing Xing (much like Yeti), do NOT like Human Contact. One Myth, deals with Their origins. The Beasts are said to be former ‘’Human’’ Monks who were cast out of Their Orders. Due to the fact that They had acquired MUCH ‘’forbidden knowledge’’, They were seen as potentially ‘’dangerous’’ to ‘’normal’’ People. Hence, when They were ‘’defrocked’’, They were cursed to a Simian Form and forbidden from ever leaving The Mountains. They turned into a kind of ‘’Guard’’, often drawing off Hikers and Explorers away from ‘’Special Temples’’.
