-------------------------
Description:
Whiskus are an offspring species of the Demi-God “Thousand Whiskers”. Created to be surveillance spirits (The Eyes) for the demi-god, they are kleptomaniacs with a hankering for stray coins and other small metal objects.
These creatures are able to go through any solid surface for quick escape and can go invisible when seen or threatened. Gaining the trust of a Whisku can take a tremendous amount of effort and time, as these creatures are bound to Thousand Whiskers and are not ones to easily separate from their Demi-God. They can be persuaded through repeated offerings and the trade of valuable metals or coins that they fancy and may eventually decide it is ok to separate and follow someone new instead.
Though these critters will always be under the commanding influence of “Thousand Whiskers” and if the demi-god so demands, they will be called upon and forced to return to his side until he no longer has use for them again. High densities of Whiskus can signify that their Demi-god is present in the general area.
Misc Facts:
- Whiskus are incorporeal beings that lack any perception of sex or gender.
- As they are ghostly, eating solid food is not a necessity, they however have a strong craving for anything metallic.
- It can be common to also find Whiskus attracted to highly emotional people, as they do feed off of the emotions of others.
