Cythraul are semi-sentient canine mammals which hail from the planet Millinar, in the Hapes Cluster. They are given as pups to prominent Arconans who are on their way to earning the Clan Title of Arconae, and having Cythraul is sign as a badge of honour among the Arconans. Their loyalty is unmatched when they form a connection with a force sensitive master.

Cythraul translates roughly in Hapan to “Demon”.

History

In the time leading up to the war, Sashar joined Marick on a trip to the Hapes cluster. It would be the last mission the two would go on, as it was Marick’s initiation into becoming a True Shadesworn. Their objective was simple: to bring back a pack of Cythraul. Marick had often told his clan-mates of the ferocity, loyalty and efficacy of the over-sized canines, but what really piqued Sashar’s interest was that the creatures seemed to have a pack-bond affinity with Force users. The Hapan had said that once a Cythraul bonds with a Force user, it is a stronger bond than that between parent and child; they would stick with them for life. After exploring the planet of Millinar, the pair were successful, and brought back no less than three pups and their mother and father. However, before the four males could be given to four aspiring members of Arcona, the Tenth Great Jedi War broke out, and with the turmoil that followed, the creatures were forgotten in the bestiary. Only when Wuntila was able to cement his rule was he able to turn his attention to the Cytharul.

Biology

The creatures can grow as large as 1.5 meters tall and over 2 meters long and can reach full size in less than a year. They can weigh anywhere from 110lbs (50kg) up. Their teeth are larger and stronger than a typical canine, and are said to be able to rip right through humanoid bone and flesh with ease. Powerful and athletic, their muscle structure allows them to run swifter than the average human and can jump just as high as three meters vertically. Their paws are padded.

Heightened sense of smell makes them perfect for hunting living game, whether it nerf or human. Their eyes see in gray-scale, so they have little problem hunting at night.

Their fur is dense and they have fluffy winter fur, with short underfur and long, coarse guard hairs. Most of the underfur and some of the guard hairs are shed in the spring and grow back in the autumn period. The longest hairs occur on the back, particularly on the front quarters and neck. Especially long hairs are found on the shoulders, and almost form a crest on the upper part of the neck. The hairs on the cheeks are elongated and form tufts. The ears are covered in short hairs which strongly project from the fur. Short, elastic and closely adjacent hairs are present on the limbs from the elbows down. Usual colourings for the Cythaul vary from white to gray to black, often being mixtures of the three. Their eyes can range from a vast catalogue of colours and do not indicate genetic lineage.


Arconan Cythraul

Marick and Sashar brought home the Alpha male, and one female to be kept with the beast master for future breeding. The Alpha male had been planned for Zandro, Consul at the time, but after Wuntila assumed the Serpentine Throne and handled the subsequent struggle that ensued in it's wake, his Proconsul decided it was time to continue with the plan he and Sashar had set out on what seemed like so many months ago. The other three where given to Marick Del'Abbot, Invictus, and Teroch Erinos

The first litter of Arconan Cythraul














Kilvin

  • Master: Wuntila Entar Arconae
  • Gender: Male
  • Eyes: Ice Blue
  • Coat: Mixed
  • Personality: Kilvin is the leader of the pact, and is very protective of his "pups". Calm and collected, his rage can errupt in the blink of an eye, and any who push the Alpha male to do so rarely come out unscathed or with their life. Father to Kote, Kira and Ktah, Kilvin is by far the largest of any Cythraul. He has a presence fit of a leader, and a simple baring of his fangs is often enough to put any of the pup's in their place. Surprisingly quick for his size. Full grown at the time of their meeting, the Alpha Cythraul showed aggression towards the approaching Wuntila, but after meeting the beast's gaze with his own, the Consul of Clan Arcona strode forward and placed his hand atop the the large wolfs head.

Kote

('Might/Glory' in Mando'a)

  • Master: Teroch Erinos
  • Gender: Male
  • Eyes: Orange
  • Coat: Black
  • Personality: Kote is the most wild of the three pups. Sashar had picked Kote out as a gift for Teroch before he died. The Cythraul is willful and at times disobedient, yet seems perfectly at ease around his owner. It is also worthy of note that Kote doesn’t seem to get on with his siblings.

Kira

('little wolf' in Hapan)

  • Master: Marick Del'Abbot
  • Gender: Female
  • Eyes: Blue, Violet
  • Coat: White
  • Personality: The runt of the litter, and the only female, Kira has a chip on her shoulder to prove herself. Leaner than her brothers, her alacrity ranks higher than any other Cythraul. She has a unique case of heterochromia that makes her left eye a deep blue and her right eye violet. She took right to Marick the second he picked her up, and the Proconsul would have most likely slain any attempting to argue their joining.

Ktah

  • Master: Invictus
  • Gender: Male
  • Eyes: Red
  • Coat: Blackish-blue
  • Personality: Playful, yet mischievous and prone to anger, fickle. 'Ktah' is a Cheunh curse that Invictus used in response to the pup's actions, so much so that he thought it was his actual name.
