Description Rawr, preet. Learned a lot about these while drawing them, which is good because I already have one and am not entirely certain what it is he is doing in my head and story.
Suspicious fellow.

Life is difficult for these guys. Those that aren't in the top 10% get taken advantage of and used for all kinds of nefarious purposes like medical testing and enslavement, and those that are clever enough to avoid that still face discrimination and a reputation as a lower order of people.

Also, even the top ten percent tend not to be big on spoken language, and it isn't at all uncommon for them to end up pair-bonded to one of the so-called 'lesser' preet(which are still far more clever than what we're used to calling an animal).

Thanks~ :3
They're sort of mammalian Concavenator/Shuvuia/cassowary things with a bit of the Star Ocean 3 dragons mixed in.

I wanted a species that looked nothing like what we expect from an intelligent alien, so no humanoid traits or tentacles. :3

They're a bit inbred unfortunately(much like cheetahs), so they're pretty much limited to the colors shown. Males are always yellow with white spots, while females are usually more drab with dark spots.
