Grasscats

Wild cats that roam the grasslands between the Viper Lands and the passes of Freehold. Grasscats are somehat smaller in shoulder height than a tiger, but much longer - so long that they can coil around their prey. They are extremely agile, and their long limbs sport razor claws, with which they kill their prey once the the prey is trapped in the coils of the cat's long body. Light and dark stripes allow grasscats to hide in tall grass. They are noted for their quick bursts of speed in ambush attacks, but their bodies are not well suited to chasing prey down over a long distance. Grasscats are solitary hunters, but live in prides. Both males and females hunt.
