Pursuer

We need to change a few things, otherwise it won't work 😔

• Its tongue is mostly bright turquoise due to its peculiar saliva.

• When you play with the pads on its paws, both front and back, it tilts its head to the side as if it were an animal confused by your actions.

• During autumn, it looks for an ideal partner, since it has a better chance of finding other strong creatures. That's why, when you defended yourself even knowing you had no chance, it decided to take you with it because you were, up to that point, the bravest and toughest creature it had found.

The fact that he marks you through licking only means that he is desperate not to be alone, to cope with a delicate situation

• I call you 'Fresh Meat', but the truth is that's what he always says to every living thing he eats; he'll eat you in a different way, though. 🗿

• It likes light physical contact: resting its head, rubbing with its tail, or leaving small marks from its shiny pads.

Despite its adorable appearance, it possesses an innate predatory instinct, especially directed towards individuals of its own species or similar creatures.

It displays an unsettling tranquility even while stalking; it observes, approaches, and attacks with methodical precision. For it, the act of eating another is not malice or cruelty, but a natural part of its instinct.

He has a very strong and almost obsessive notion of what he considers his partner, a figure he respects, protects and prioritizes above all else.

It's not a romantic relationship in a human sense, but a deep connection: someone she recognizes as her "center".

He shows that person a different kind of affection than he shows others:

• It approaches gently.

• He offers her small protective gestures.

• He becomes more expressive physically.

He even shares his saliva's sheen as a subtle mark of belonging.

Their patience has a limit: If he feels that his partner ignores him too much, exposes himself to danger, withdraws without explanation, or refuses too much to have any kind of intimacy, he may become restless, territorial, and even threatening toward anyone he perceives as a rival. It doesn't hurt their partner, but those around them can suffer the consequences of that tension. He is extremely territorial with his partner.

He does not show jealousy out of emotional possessiveness, but out of a protective instinct so strong that it borders on obsessive.

It develops surveillance routines: it positions itself nearby, observes the surroundings, reacts to minimal sounds, and if it deems it necessary, intervenes as a silent guardian.

His loyalty is absolute: if he has to choose between himself or his partner, he always chooses his partner.

Usual Behaviors: He communicates more with body language than vocals. He often makes soft sounds, deep grunts, or clicking noises when he's comfortable or wants to get his partner's attention. He has an amazing ability to read basic emotions in others.

He knows when his partner is tired, upset, or happy, and adjusts his behavior to accompany her.

Outside of their partner, this disappears: they do not empathize or take an interest in other beings, they only analyze them as presences, threats or potential prey.

Its head retains its rounded, slightly oval shape, covered by a pale cream-colored face that contrasts sharply with its black fur. Its large, almond-shaped eyes retain a turquoise-green gleam that seems almost phosphorescent.

Inside, sharp, well-defined teeth are revealed, small but numerous, shaped like short fangs that are irregularly aligned, giving it a more predatory look without losing its adorable aesthetic.

Its long, flexible tongue is the same bright turquoise-green, with a moist finish that makes the color stand out even more. The saliva shares that same green sheen; it's slightly viscous and leaves a luminous trail wherever the creature licks or touches with its mouth, like tiny liquid footprints or shimmering threads that cling to surfaces. When its mouth is closed, none of these features are noticeable.

Body and Fur: Its body is entirely covered in deep black fur, which appears soft and uniform. The overall shape of its torso is stocky, with curved contours and no sharp angles, giving it a gentle and slightly awkward appearance.

Extending from its back is a long, flexible tail, also covered in black fur, tapering to a point. This tail moves freely and appears to be expressive.

Limbs: The front and rear legs are short and sturdy, similar to each other, suggesting that it can walk on all fours but also sit or stand upright with ease.

Each paw ends in large, rounded, padded, and very expressive paws; their pads and nails have a bright green hue. The claws are not straight, but slightly curved and thick, giving an impression of strength but without a threatening appearance.

Cushions and Luminous Details: The pads on its paws are particularly striking: large, circular and shiny, with an intense green that seems to emit its own light.

The toes are short and thick, ending in small nails of the same green hue. The soles of the feet and the tips of the claws appear to have a slight glow.
