Description

Please forgive the crudeness of the digital color. I no longer have access to a Tablet, so I'm just mousing it.

“Saytcat”

Saytcat is what Kuicdra has named the creature she draws most often to act as a guardian. Based off of several drawings of monsters and creatures she made as a child, she has a tendency to treat him almost like a family pet when things aren’t dire.

In spite of Saytcat’s appearance (which tends to change a little every time Kuicdra draws him), when calm, he is extremely docile, and seems perfectly happy to put up with Kuicdra petting or riding him. In spite of his feline appearance, Saytcat is actually far more doglike in behavior, and his moods can be read much the same. He is a little distrustful toward others, which reflects Kuicdra’s shyness and trust issues, but rarely turns down a scratch behind the ears from someone Kuicdra trusts.

In battle, however, Saytcat is fairly formidable. Horns and plates help protect it from blows, while their spikey shape makes it difficult to jump him. His somewhat scorpion-like tail, while very strong and lightning fast, is semi-prehensile. Since he is recreated now and again, Saytcat’s claws always remain razor sharp, in spite of them being non-retractable. His horns and saber fangs are also well used, since he tends to charge on all fours into the fray like a bull.

Saytcat is rather intelligent, and can understand simple orders given to it in English, but cannot reply. Instead its vocalizations consist of a variety of roars, purrs, growls whining and howling.

To be honest, I don't think I would want a Saytcat at my home if they were available in any pet shop... o.O but it would be nice to have one if I get the chance <3
