The Riverlore illustration is of a Taniwha. In New Zealand mythology, Taniwha (pronunciation: tanifa) are creatures
that live in deep pools in rivers, dark caves, or in the sea, especially in places with dangerous currents or
deceptive breakers. They may be considered highly respected protective guardians of people and places, or in some
traditions as dangerous, predatory beings.
