Noble streynors are hunted by the usual prey animals but do not often fall victim to them due to their magical ability to sense danger. At some point in its evolutionary past, the streynor was the subject of an alchemical experiment, and since then, every streynor is born with the inherent ability to detect potential predators within a 300-yard radius. Though not a particularly swift runner, a noble streynor can move quickly enough to avoid all but the fastest pursuer, given this advance warning. Despite its natural ability to avoid most threats, the noble streynor is still sought out by hunters who can sell the creature's frontal lobe for a high price to black-market magic users. Portions of a noble streynor's brain can be used to concoct various alchemical products and divination-based magic items, so they command high prices if the proper buyers can be found.
