Tenabrus (Tenabre fox x Jaktus dragon)

Post by fawnfur13 »

Two of my favorite creatures, of course I had to combine them :haha:

I was originally planning to draw it but that didn't really turn out so well so written it is 8D

------------------------------------------

Egg:
Your fingers tingle a bit when you touch this dark egg.

Hatchling:
It’s not uncommon to find a Tenabrus hatchling with a bell attached to it somewhere, to alert those nearby to their presence, because while they are friendly, these hatchlings are also very mischievous and are often getting themselves into trouble. Their ability to blend into the shadows makes it easy for them to pull their pranks, which often includes them using their orb to stun people, allowing them to make off with some food or an interesting trinket, or just tease their immobile target. Being the social creatures they are, it‘s not unusual for multiple hatchlings to team up for a prank, and then later pile up for nap.

Adult:
Tenabrus are an interesting sight to behold, with their long, slender bodies and skeletal faces. While mostly covered it dark, iridescent scales, they have an incredibly soft mane, which extends down their back and ends in a fluffy tuft at the end of their tail. The mischief they display in their youth is still present, although they mellow out quite a bit as they age. They love exploring, it’s not unusual to find that your Tenabrus companion has disappeared, not to be seen again for several weeks, but they always return to their magi eventually, sometimes with treasures they found along the way. They are very adept hunters, using their power to blend into the shadows to sneak up on their prey and then their orb to stun it while they go in for the kill. That said, they are not very fond of fighting, preferring to distract the enemy while someone else deals with them. Tenabrus are known to form very close knit families, and finding several of them snuggled up in your bed is not an uncommon occurrence.

General:
A curious creature which is the result of a Jaktus Dragon and Tenabre Fox mating, how such a union between two very different creatures came to be is unknown. However, one can’t deny that this pairing has created a very strong, if not somewhat strange looking, creature. Able to utilize both the Fox’s powers of blending into the shadows and the Dragon’s power to stun and immobilize it’s foes, the Tenabrus is undoubtedly a very formidable opponent. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on the person, these creatures have very little interest in fighting. They will surely aide their magi when needed, but for the most part prefer to explore the lands and then take a nap in an nice dark corner. Although they have no interest in fighting, they have inherited the Tenabre fox’s mischievous nature, especially as youngsters, playing pranks on their magi and anyone else who was unfortunate enough to cross their path.

what are feet and skulls
Got too lazy to do the hatchling :p


Ahhh, trying to mix traits of both creatures without making it too much like one of the other is quite a task that I'm not really sure I succeeded in :p
