Creature Name: Scaled Lynx
General Description
Scaled Lynx are the size and shape of a terran lynx. They have scales instead of fur except for the tufts of fur on their ears. The scales instead of being smooth to the body are pointy and stick out slightly kind of like a hedgehog that isn’t mad. If rubbed the right way (from head to tail) the scales will not hurt despite their razor sharp edge, they are actually very smooth. If rubbed the wrong way however, the scales will cut the offender’s hand. Scaled Lynx are from the planet Dai’Wadeeya and during the turbulent period in human history were considered excellent guardians. Their razor sharp scales, which can be made to stick out when they are upset, are excellent defense against intruders. Some Lynx were even taken into battle and volunteered their skills to help their bond-mates. Now during peaceful times most have returned to the wild, where they live in packs led by and alpha female and her mate but many Scaled Lynx can still be found living with humans, normally travelers or people in power, anyone fearing attack or needing a strong willed companion.

Creature Name: Spook Cats
General Description:
Spook Cats are cousins to the Gremlin Dragons but the only similarities between them are their abilities and the spikes along their nose and eyeridges. Even with the similarities there are differences though. Spook Cats cannot Travel (except Whites or those with white and then ONLY to the world of the dead) and the spikes that run along each side of their nose to their eyeridges are only long enough to stick out past their fur about an inch.
Spook Cats in general body type are sleek and muscular like a leopard from Earth. Their coats are thick and smooth and normally a solid color. Occasionally kits are born with multiple colors to their coats at which time the second color can be found on any or all of their ears, feet or tail. Those with more than two colors have the colors in splotches all over their bodies. The eyes of a Spook Cat are always completely white with no pupil (this does not mean they are blind).
As creatures who work with death and the dead, Spook Cats often don’t find the living worth their time. The only exception to this sentiment would be the Spook Cat’s bondmate which they love and will do anything for.
