Physiology: He is covered in short orange fur throughout his entire body, with some patches of white fur on his head, back and tail. Under the fur is cream-colored scales that go dark indigo under the arms and legs. He has a long snout with cobra fangs, with orange eyes with very narrow pupils. His underbellybis clad in large gray plating with small patches lining the back. His arms have three digits with a long middle finger, and his tail ends in a bony scythe-like blade that is sharp enough to to cut bamboo.

Behavior: He travels in a pack of atleast three Izuchi at all times. He is very territorial, always defends his territory from threats.

Abilities: He is intelligent compared to other theropod bird wyverns, able to coordinate with Izuchi, and command the sharpest of minds of the pack to do combination attacks as well with their scythe tails. He is also very agile, capable of back-flipping or swinging his whole body around several times with ease.

Why he is my favorite?
-his design is based on the Kamaitachi Yokai and his elongate smile is based on Kuchisake-Onna.
--the former is explanatory. The Kamaitachi are described as three weasels with elongated claws. One knocks you down, One takes a piece of flesh from your body, and One will sew up the wound. This is a good process so their target doesn't feel any pain.
--the latter is also explanatory. Kuchisake-Onna or Slit-Mouth Woman is described as a woman wearing a red coat and dress and also wearing a mask and asking around "Am I Pretty" to her victims.
-his weapons are useful in the early game, especially the longsword and greatsword.
-he coordinates his attacks with Izuchi.
