Description
Any pronouns. The Beast was created by Yawning Heights as a pet, but the iterator wanted to ensure it was able to defend itself and may have gone a bit overboard with the animalistic tendencies. Nevertheless, Beast loves YH a lot and behaves uncharacteristically gentle with him. The collar was placed on it by an unknown individual during several cycles where it went missing, but now it refuses to let YH remove it.

This slugcat has a very strong sense of community and loyalty. He creates bonds with other creatures very quickly, and will often feed excess prey to lizards- he is aware they are above him on the food chain, and generally prefers to stay on their good side. This strong bond extends to the creatures he interacts with, however, and if the bond is broken by either party, it can be very difficult to repair. 

Due to its particularly large mouth, The Beast can store up to two small items or one medium-sized item within; he often uses this to carry multiple pearls to gift to scavengers, or to store extra food for the next cycle. It can be difficult for it to decide between the two, as personal survival and strong friendships are both extremely important to it. Oftentimes, however, the former wins out.

Yawning Heights - creator and 'owner'
Strange Oddity - friend, in the way the neighbour that feeds you too many treats would be

Design Notes
- Scars are not consistent, draw as many as you want as long as there is at least one!
- Collar is not optional, but can be simplified
- Claws can 'retract' i.e. paws can be drawn rounded
