Species Standards

Prefered Habitat: Temperate to cold forest regions, such as snowy pine forests of the northern lands...
There are a few breed differences as to their particular habitats, but for the most part they're all the same.

Diet: Strictly carniverous.. Will eat any animal that is easy or small enough to catch.

Call: This creature makes all the standard noises of both large and small cats, ranging from "purrs" and
"hisses" to "mews" and all the way to "roars".

Special Care Needs:  Sadly, this creature doesn't need much from a person - as it's rather independent.
Once can assume a special need would be that it is rather difficult to build up a bond of loyalty (as it is for
most cats). Be cautious of their over-sized canines!

Biology and Anatomy:   Every feature on this massive feline is designed to help it dominate. From the
massive fangs that protrude over it's front lip to the thick and heavy tail that trails behind it, these creatures
have a design that leaves them ready to kill. Their senses of hearing, sight, and smell are all incredibly
strong. Despite the fact that they can stand shoulder to shoulder with an average-sized man, they can stalk
silently through their forest home and go un-noticed by even the cleverest of prey. If their massive bodies
don't immediately take down anything they decide to pounce on, their four sets of razor sharp claws or huge
fangs will do the trick. A well aimed bite from an estharne can easily go past scales, fur, or muscle and
snap a bone in two. Their pelts are perfectly designed to help them blend into their environment as well as
keep their temperature at a stable level. And those giant tails? Well, besides keeping their bodies or young
warm on chilly nights, those tails are the only thing strong enough to twist the spine so an estharne can
always land in its feet.

Behavioral Study: Extremely curious creatures, they tend to be rather intelligent, and figure things out rather
quickly. However, this also causes them to get into quite a bit of trouble and they often find themselves in
situations that are rather difficult to get out of. Although they are indipendent by nature, IF a bond can be
made with it's owner, it will stay with them for life. As much as one can talk about the behavior of these
creatures, they WERE designed after cats, and thus - the element of chaos is placed within' them.. Imagine
everything you know about your average house cat, and then make it to be the size of a tiger when full
grown...

Suggested Uses: It is suggested that these creatures be mostly used for the Fighting Pit, although, they
can be (according to some owners) very loyal and loving pets... I personally however, dissagree.
Breeds Available
Black: There are little differences between most of the breeds of Estharne other than color - and Black is a
perfect example of this. It has no special qualities to it, in comparison to it's species kin.

White: The White breed is quite special, in that it can not only go to the cold forest regions of the world, but
much farther. In fact, it can go as far as the tundra regions - and survive. Because of this thick coat, you may
wish to groom your White Estharne more often.

Grey: Grey, similar to Black, has no special breed characteristics. Because of their coloration however, the
Grey breed were eventually all adopted out.

Sand: The Sand breed was designed to live in the more arid regions of the world, such as deserts. It still
cannot live without water, but it can tolerate the hot temperatures much more easily. The Sand breed (most
likely because of it's adaptability to the warmer climates) was eventually all adopted out.

Tabby: The Tabby breed also has no special breed characteristics.

Siam: The Siam breed would be considered to have no special breed characteristics, except that it's mood
is slightly different. All of the Siam breed seem to be more "snoodish" than the rest of it's species.
