A large coniferous evergreen tree, 30–35 meters (rarely 40 meters) tall, with a trunk diameter of 1.5–2 meters. It is very similar to an Atlas cedar, with mid- to dark green needles and a rust colored bark.

Native to the [[Llangon Mountains|Heyalar t'L'langon]] it occurs most abundantly at altitudes of 600–2000 meters where it often forms mixed forests with the [[Ic'tan|ic'tan]]. The ''sher'khah'' is not as widely cultivated, as it grows best in the unique soil of central Llangon, but a green-golden leafed, smaller subspecies is very popular as ornamental tree.

The wood is highly prized for its beautiful color and patterns, and is used for the [[Ka'athyra|ka'athyra]].

The fragrant resin has various applications, and is used as a dye, painting pigment, and medicine. Similar in scent to Terran '''Dragon's Blood''' it is also occasionally used in soaps and bath oils.
