The Tuk'ata is a gigantic quadruped with three rows of teeth, six-inch claws, and three horns. Legends say that the Tuk'ata was bred by the ancient sith for their ferocity and intelligence, using them as hunting beasts and as guards for their tombs on Korriban.
Tal'Sha was bred in a tame condition, and is comfortable around humanoids. It depends on humanoids for survival and looks to them for support. As creature handling goes up, a member can better understand and train and control this creature, but it will always look to Kojiro Keibatsu Sadow for guidance and support. When a character is proficient (+3) at handling creatures, they can do all they need with a domesticated creature.
Tal'Sha has typical coloring and physical appearance for a Tuk'ata.
Tal'Sha is larger than the average Tuk'ata in terms of size and body mass. Their bulkier build can offer better power but often at the expense of the mobility and agility commonly associated with other Tuk'ata.
Tal'Sha has a natural, instinctive drive to take the lead when around other creatures, especially when among fellow Tuk'ata’s. They are usually the first to take point and will often look to assert their dominance by means of aggressive actions or by vocalizing with their respective method of communication (howling, hissing, roaring, etc.).
