Description
My SL Kaiila Gor creature RP character Midnight
Kaiila's are equine-like shaped part feline creatures ridden by the masters/warriors of Gor, they have paws instead of hooves and fashion a spectacular set of sabreteeth & live off a diet of meat.
My character Midnight is strong and powerful and very protective of her master and his slave girl & will defend them till death as well as fend off unwanted guests from her masters wagon whilst he's busy mating with his slave, but she's also very mischievous and gets herself into trouble and tends to wander from camp whereby her master with his slave in toe by her leash they both come to find her and Midnight gets beaten by whip until she crouches down and submits to her masters dominance. Her favourite food is bosk meat which is a hairy shaggy prehistoric looking cow native to Gor.
"I then saw the kaiila pass. It was lofty, stately, fanged and silken. I had heard of such beasts, but this was the first time I had seen. It was yellow, with flowing hair. Its rider was mounted in a high, purple saddle, with knives in the saddle sheaths."
From Fighting Slave of Gor, page 178

Where on earth did you read in the gor books that they have sabre teeth they do not ... "The mount of the Wagon Peoples, unknown in the northern hemisphere of Gor, is the terrifying but beautiful kaiila. It is a silken, carnivorous, lofty creature, graceful, long-necked, smooth-gaited. It is viviparous and undoubtedly mammalian, though there is no suckling of the young. The young are born vicious and by instinct, as soon as they can struggle to their feet, they hunt. It is an instinct of the other, sensing the birth, to deliver the young animal in the vicinity of game. I supposed, with the domesticated kaiila, a bound verr or a prisoner might be cast to the newborn animal. The kaiila, once it eats its fill, does not touch food for several days. The kaiila is extremely agile, and can easily outmaneuver the slower, more ponderous high tharlarion. It requires less food, of course, than the tarn. A kaiila, which normally stands about twenty to twenty-two hands at the shoulder, can over as much as six hundred pasangs in a single day's riding. The head of the kaiila bears two large eyes, one on each side, but these eyes are triply lidded, probably an adaptation to the environment which occasionally is wracked by severe storms of wind and dust; the adaptation, actually a transparent third lid, permits the animal to move as it wishes under conditions that force other prairie animals to back into the wind or, like the sleen, to burrow into the ground. The kaiila is most dangerous under such conditions, and, as if it knew this, often uses such times for its hunt." — Nomads of Gor, pages 13-14.
"The sand kaiila, or desert kaiila, is a kaiila, and handles similarly, but it is not identically the same animal which is indigenous, domestic and wild, in the middle latitudes of Gor's southern hemisphere; that animal, used as a mount by the Wagon Peoples, is not found in the northern hemisphere of Gor; there is obviously a phylogenetic affinity between the two varieties, or species; I conjecture, though I do not know, that the sand kaiila is a desert-adapted mutation of the subequatorial stock; both animals are lofty, proud, silken creatures, long-necked and smooth-gaited; both are triply lidded, the third lid being a transparent membrane, of great utility in the blasts of the dry storms of the southern plains or the Tahari; both creatures are comparable in size, ranging from some twenty to twenty-two hands at the shoulder; both are swift; both have incredible stamina; under ideal conditions both can range six hundred pasangs in a day; … both, too, I might mention, are high-strung, vicious-tempered animals; in pelt the southern kaiila ranges from a rich gold to black; the sand kaiila, on the other hand, are almost all tawny, though I have seen black sand kaiila; differences, some of them striking and important, however, exist between the animals; most notably, perhaps, the sand kaiila suckles its young; the southern kaiila are viviparous, but the young, within hours after birth, hunt, by instinct; the mother delivers the young in the vicinity of game; whereas there is game in the Tahari, birds, small mammals, an occasional sand sleen, and some species of tabuk, it is rare; the suckling of the young in the sand kaiila is a valuable trait in the survival of the animal; … a similar difference between the two animals, or two sorts of kaiila, is that the sand kaiila is omnivorous, whereas the southern kaiila is strictly carnivorous; both have storage tissues; if necessary, both can go several days without water; the southern kaiila also, however, has a storage stomach, and can go several days without meat; … a more trivial difference between the sand kaiila and the southern kaiila is that the paws of the sand kaiila are much broader, the digits even webbed with leathery fibers, and heavily padded, than those of its southern counterpart." — Tribesmen of Gor, pages 70-71.

yes I have read the books this is just the way i want to depict them art-wise & it's what my Kaiila character looked like in SecondLife nobody really made an avatar of the proper appearance of a kaiila all people had were horse avatars with addons to make it look almost like a kaiila.

Are you trying to tell me that on second life gor is played with animals being a character ? or as an add on to your char there ... Oh Lord i stick to webchat ---

it's optional there are non player creatures moving models that can go into combat with you and also be used as mounts but they can't be expressive in adding to RP stories or expressing themselves to certain situations as creature player avatars can though not many do most like to play human and make do with the non player creatures depends on the RP region and what they prefer.
