"Don't fall, for you may not be able to get back up again."
Shaytans
shey-tawns
They are the size of hounds, vary from all ages, and feline. Their speed is uncanny compared to canines however birds of flight can outfly them.
They are unable to reproduce, except the queen.
The queen is the size of a Great Dane, who takes on various mates for each litter of shaytans. She is called Kamilah, one of the first shaytans.
Shaytan Hierarchy is much like a bee colony. Workers, drones, the queen.
She is able to speak in a myriad of tongues, including canine. However, it is undetermined whether sightings of her are proved true.
They can turn other creatures into their state of being as well. There are two ways to do this. One, if a creature has ingested their blood in some way or form and die, they will be revived and become a canine shaytan. Second, if the creature is bitten and the shaytan’s venom enters their bloodstream. They would become forced to wander the desert for all eternity, unable to remember who they are.
Their rotting appearance is caused by the decomposing of their cells a month after they are born. The process is very slow, allowing them to keep this appearance for most of their lives. Once the queen gives birth, the litter will appear as average newborn kittens.
They have very tough hide or whatever is left of it because it had first fossilized over the years and had grown into an adaptation against the harsh weather as generations went on. However, if their hide is pierced, they bleed black and blue, thick blood. The only way known to kill shaytan is by beheading or drowning. They can be repelled by water, so stay close to the rivers.
Another one of their adaptations is their venom. Like a snake, they can inject or spray their poison into the eyes of their enemy or into their bloodstream. In order to enter the bloodstream, it must be consumed or injected into the creature. The poison could either kill you or make you into one of their own.
