The Cahri are large reptilian beasts, their massive frames rivaling the size of a fully grown horse. They roam grasslands and cave systems without fear, known far and wide for their unparalleled camouflage abilities and ferocious demeanor. With scales and fur that can shift colors to mimic any environment, the Cahri become nearly invisible to both prey and predators. This chameleon-like trait is so advanced that even Cahri eggs possess the ability to blend into their surroundings, long before the young within have fully formed.

Cahri are not only adept at hiding, they are also formidable hunters. Their saliva is a potent weapon, laced with a venom that varies between bloodlines. The Cahri utilize their venom by smearing it on tree branches and leaves. When unsuspecting prey scurries by, it becomes contaminated with the poison and marked with a unique scent that only the Cahri can track. This allows the Cahri to follow their prey with precision, ensuring a successful hunt.

These magnificent creatures possess a high level of intelligence, showcasing problem-solving skills and basic social behaviors. While they lack the ability to speak, they communicate through a series of intricate gestures, body language, and low-frequency sounds or growls.

Cahri are created and born with reborn souls straight from Alure, and this soul is released upon death as per normal.

 

Cahri come in a huge variety of palettes and patterns. Their base coats can change colors, allowing them to blend into their environments but their patterns can not change.

Cavern Cahri are mutated versions of their normal forms, more adapted to survive in the dark. They make distinct clicking sounds to navigate the tunnels where they are often found. Their heads are susceptible to sense vibrations of sound, meaning they can be quite agitated when their heads are touched. Cavern variants have a much stronger jaw to dig through dirt to reach ground-dwelling prey. The cavern variant can still camouflage, but mostly living in darkness their coats mainly react to their emotions rather than hiding amongst the environment. Cave Cahri are known for their large ears, which are often vibrant in direct sunlight. 

It is free to use this alt variant, but you can not have both forms on one Cahri without an item.
