• Description

  Tuna is a weird amalgamation of both a catfish and a Siberian Tiger. His base body color is a dark brown, fitted with darker "saddle", toe, and outer ear markings, as well as a beige underbelly - faded yet noticeable tiger stripes line his back, cheeks, legs, and the top portion of his tail. He's quite a chubby creature, having lived on a diet of steady and plentiful varieties of fattening fish while he's been swimming within the basin he calls home, giving Tuna a broad, barrel-like body that, while you'd think would hinder him, seems to make him all the more stronger. The fins in between his shoulder blades and on his tail seem to be those of a Channel Catfish, while his head seems to be more comparable to that of a Shovelhead, fitted with long whiskers on either end of his mouth, 4 more of varying length on the top of his head, and 3 smaller ones on his chin, one of which is damaged. Similar to a bear, Tuna is also able to stand on his hind legs, using his large fish-like tail to maintain his balance - he cannot walk this way and only assumes this stance when looking something over or trying to figure something out from a distance away. His eyes aren't really remarkable in appearance but do have the ability to see in the dark, causing his eyes to appear like tiny headlights in the night, refracting whatever light they manage to catch.
