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.
Domesticated
Gorr 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 Vasha Voss for guidance and support. When a character is proficient (+3) at handling creatures, they can do all they need with a domesticated creature.
Unlike the wild tuk'ata that roam the Sith worlds, Gorr is maintained with almost military precision. His hide is regularly brushed clean of dust and loose scales, his claws are trimmed and sharpened to prevent chips and fractures, and his teeth are kept remarkably clean despite their constant use. Even his horns bear the smooth, polished finish of an animal that receives routine care rather than one left to fend for itself. The result is an unsettling first impression: Gorr does not resemble a feral predator so much as a perfectly maintained weapon. To those familiar with Vasha Voss, his condition comes as little surprise, reflecting the same discipline and pride she invests in herself, her partner, her equipment, and the people under her command.
Gorr is the average size and body mass for a Tuk'ata, with a balanced build for mobility agility, and power.
Gorr is neither playful nor overtly aggressive, carrying himself with the quiet confidence of an apex predator that has never had reason to doubt its place in the world. Intelligent and fiercely independent, he is capable of making decisions without direction and has been known to manipulate situations, and people, to suit his own interests. Although utterly obedient to Vasha, his loyalty stems not from submission but from recognition. In Vasha, Gorr found a spirit much like his own: disciplined, dominant, and utterly certain of where it belongs in the hierarchy.
