Description I found a slight doodle in my purse the other day and I decided to flesh out the sketch I had there since I like the head so well. And this is the result I came up with. I'm pretty happy with my proportions and the posing of this particular creature. It is something that I'm going to include as part of Ashi's World.

I would like to thank,



For giving me the idea to write up statistics of my critters.

Description: The BloodLet Sentinal, more commonly refereed to, as the BloodLetter is one of the largest of the Sentinal breed. Originally created as Protector, the origin of the BloodLet is unknown, the mutation beyond its original genetic creation has left many scientists baffled, making the BloodLet a confusing creature to classify as a species since its original creation documentation had been destroyed. Research is still being conducted to try to find the original genetic hosts for the BloodLet; the only solid information that has been discovered is that the BloodLet was created 10,056 years ago. Only 56 years before the coming of the “Fall” and the “Rise of the Deamoniac Hordes.”

Noted to be ferrous protectors that can be as kind as they are cruel, they bond well with their protectorate families and larger members of the breed if treated with respect will accept a rider, protecting them with undying devotion and providing a loyal companion. BloodLet Sentinals are highly intelligent, sporting a large cranial housing for well-developed brain. They tend to take orders well, but will complete them the best way that they see fit if it does not feel safe, or can puzzle out a better way to accomplish its task.

BloodLet Sentinals have a lithe, muscular, almost feline frame build for running and leaping. Wide, heavy paws with long sharp talons give the BloodLet a small advantage of loose gravely surfaces. Not all BloodLets have a distinctive tail blade, thought it is very common to see. Those BloodLets who seem to be missing a tail blade develop a hard, flexible metallic coating over the last three foot of its tail. BloodLets are covered in very short, velvet soft pelt that is very supple almost like skin. Both male and Female BloodLets have a mane, which will part either to the left or to the right. This mane grows long on the dominant part side with shorter mane growth on the non-dominate side. Both mane and pelt range in a wide variety of colors from the purest whites to the richest blacks.

The most unusually aspect of the BloodLet Sentinal is that it has no eyes. What is even more of a mystery is the BloodLet is found throughout the world, in both light and dark environments. Though BloodLet have no eyes the apparently “see” very well. The distinctive pitting of the BloodLet’s are dedicated to auditory and heat sensors. These smooth concave sensors can be shifted from full auditory to full heat sensors at the will of the BloodLet, depending on its environment. The sensor pattern varies from BloodLet to BloodLet.

Beyond the olfactory and heat sensors, BloodLets smooth cranial cavity houses a sensitive melon sheath between cranial plates over the brain, effectively used as a sonar receptor. BloodLets use a wide variety of sounds, from soft chitters and growls, to beautiful yet eerie, melancholy songs, depending their activities. It is speculated that the two, small hollow horns are also dedicated in some way to the BloodLets sonar, but that has not been proven.

This species has what is considered three pairs of false eyes, which in fact are BloodLet’s olfactory sensors, giving this creatures a highly developed sense of smell. The third pair of nostrils is actually dedicated to Pheromone detection.

There are only a few visual differences between male and female BloodLets. It is typical to find more sensory pits upon female BloodLets, then on males. Males are slightly larger then females at the shoulder and in length usually only by a few inches, And males also bare a distinctive penis sheath.

I really love the color on this critter. Very fluid, very eyecatching, and it actually looks natural. *ponders* I have to agree with other folks, the feet are nicely done. Great work on those toes and talons, but my favorite thing has to be that bladed tail. That, is damn cool. I can't wait to see those color variations you've mentioned.

*sniff sniff* nothin' like good ol' pheremore tracking, just like teh Aliens! I think its cool that the skinn around the feet are all red like they are bloodstained. That' would make them extra intimidating if they kept dried blud on their coats Wow. Very cool chara you have here
