The cythawrs’ eyes are large and bird-like. The colour is a variation of the colour of the coat. The cythawrs’ faces, noses, and ears are that of large cats. Their coat can be dark grey, silver, white, or gold . They are slightly smaller than a male lion, with a cheetah-like form.

The cythawrs’ speech is swift, and they love to talk. They are usually long-winded. Their movements are graceful, swift, and measured.

Cythawr are obsessive, opinionated, swift, slightly touchy, but encouraging. They are slightly pushy and perseverant.

Cythawr like running, cats, gold and perseverance. They dislike walking, turtles, snails, blue and laziness.

Valerian is beneficial for their health. Botulism can be damaging and/or lethal.

Cythawr can be subdivided into four sub-races: power, speed, flexibility, and endurance. I won’t get into them now, but if you’re interested…maybe in the future!

The things I have outlined here are what is usually the case. It is possible for cythawr to differ from this description. Those who do are either adored or shunned. If you have any questions about why I made them a certain way, ask away! It will help me to solidify them.

I like them. I also like the way they are long-winded and opinionated...and for some reason their description gives me the impression that they are vain? Is that true or am I just reading into it? :D

And, what is botulism? A type of mineral or something? I know the other races have had minerals or liquids....

Sounds good! I agree with eruheran that they sound like they might be vain. Part of your description makes it seem as if they are always excited and jumping up and down, but then it seems almost like they can be grumpy.

I wouldn't necessarily say vain. It's more that they're competitive, and they like to instruct.

I'm guessing that you're thinking grumpy because of 'slightly touchy'? That just means that they can get offended easily. If you came to my Taekwondo school on cardio night, you would definitely understand where I got some of this from (not the 'slightly touchy', though) :P

The Wikipedia page makes it seem like botulism is a disease that is a result of 'botulinum toxin'...they're allergic to the disease? :?

Competitive. Ah. I see; which can sometimes be mistaken for vanity when it's looked at in different ways...it does look like they would be hard people to get along with. :)

I'm allergic to many diseases, I break out in an annoying reaction of death. :D

Actually your description is really cool. I like them too. Their dislikes seem random. I don't think that you make it sound like they're 'allergic' to botulism, just like they're more sensitive. They are definitely a beautiful race. :)

No, they are harmed by the bacterium that causes the disease

Not necessarily, but if you are training under them, they make you work hard. :D

Is that good or bad? :P They're really not random if you think about it. If they like running, they wouldn't like walking, which is slower. If they dislike slowness, they would like slow things (hence turtles and snails). Since they like gold, they wouldn't like blue, because it's on the opposite side of the colour wheel from yellow. And a opposite of perseverance is laziness.

Exactly! You have just won the 'Decode Zoe's Descriptions' prize! :P

Blue is not on the opposite side of the spectrum as yellow. Purple is. Red and blue both are on either side of blue, but the one that is directly across is red and blue combined, or purple. :D

-.O.
O . O

See that Blue isn't directly across from yellow. If anything, blue and yellow are related, as primary colors that combine to make green, unless were talking about light, which I have no clue about. :?

But I see what you were getting at now.

It's sort of on the opposite side on this colour wheel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bezol ... l_1874.jpg). :P

Oh, well green seems to be extra-big compared to purple and orange, but now I see what you mean. :)
