Apemen are an exotic breed of Beastmen similar in appearance to great apes that are said to live among the jungles of the Southlands.[1a]

In the Old World very little is known of the mysterious wilderness beyond Araby, which is known simply as the Southlands. It is known to the most erudite of Old World scholars that as well as Humans, the Southlands are home to species of large apes, animals which closely resemble primitive humanoids. Some of these are highly organised and intelligent, and use tools, weapons and cunning in attacks on the other inhabitants of the jungles.[1a]

When the Lizardmen or Goblins pursue them, they vanish into the canopies of the great rainforests. At what point the ape ends and the Beastman begins is never clear, and the uncertainty of whether a creature is staring back at the traveler with animal curiosity or savage Chaos-bred malice makes the jungles even more treacherous and disconcerting.[1a]
