I am in need of some new (ms paint friendly) linearts, namely a cub lineart and perhaps some separate linearts fo different subspecies. If you think you can help, plese pm me; I can pay pets and a custom Kessera. Also, once I have linearts, I'm probably gonna need guest artists. Once again, pm me.
Kessera [Kess-er-a]
Introduction to the Species
Kesserra are large feline creatures, a bit like a cross between a wolf, a horse and a panther, but actually unrelated to any of them.
They mainly have natural coat colours.
Main features of the breed
My Kessera, Kareja
My Water Kessera, Komi.
Kareja as a young cub
The distinguishing features of the Kessera include an elongated feline muzzle, a feline tail with a horse's plumed end, pointed ears, wolf eyes and paws, and horse legs. They have poisonous spurs on the inside of their calves, and one spur halfway down their tail.
Their fangs are poisonous, and deliver a heart-stopping dose of neurotoxin within 5 seconds.
An average sized Kessera stands about 1.7 metres high, or 17 horse hands.
Hunting Habits
Because of their large size, Kessera are not easily able to camouflage themselves, especially not the mountain dwelling ones, instead they hunt with speed. Though part horse, they are carnivores, and hunt like wolves, running the prey down until it collapses, but with incredible speed. Very rarely do they use poison to hunt with, prefering to save it for self-defence.
Young
Kessera pair up twice before they settle down with their mate-for-life.
It is not unusual for Kessera to breed with each partnership, but they only ever breed once with each partner.
This means, should you choose to breed your Kessera, you can get up to 9 cubs.
Once in a blue moon Kessera have four young in one litter.
Generally they only have 1-3 cubs though, as they are very similar to other large mammals such as horses.
Sub-Species
Philarami Kessera
Strangely, these Kessera, though identical to normal Kessera in every aspect, have completely black eyes, making them nocturnal, and strange ear tufts. Only 3 have ever been found and we haven't a clue why they are so different.
Draconi Kessera
The reason Philarami are different has been found, they contain dormant dragon genes, meaning when bred with a usual Kessera, Draconi Kessera are created. There are many different variations, including horns, lizard eyes, spines etc...
Soara Kessera
As of yet, no Soara has ever been captured and little is known of them...
Soara Kessera have peculiar feathered flaps of skin on the back of their legs, when they extend them, they can glide and even fly for short amounts of time.
Uninari Kessera
The most exotic and rare Kessera, nothing is known of these exclusive beasts. Watch the pens, occasionally one may be captured.
Maginara Kessera.
Kessera with special affinities for things, including Kessera with designs based on elements.
Elemental Kessera.
Light Kessera
Always some kind of white shade, with gold fangs, gold eyes and a wing mark on their flanks. These Kessera have very angelic tendencies and are mortal enemies of the Dark Kessera.
Dark Kessera
Dusky coloured Kessera, always with red eyes, white fangs and 3 slash marks on their flanks. These Kessera have disturbingly vampristic tendencies and are mortal enemies of the Light Kessera.
Energy Kessera
Mainly dark colours with startlingly bright eyes and fangs in various shades of yellow, gold or orange.
These Kessera always have a lightning bolt on their flank and are mortal enemies of Frost Kessera.
Frost Kessera
The colours of the Arctic, where they live, this peculiar species of Kessera is a creature long associated with magic. Created when a breeding between a Draconi and a Soara was blessed by a secret High Priestess of a strange goddess, these Kessera have fully formed dragon wings. Features always seen on Frost Kessera include dragon wings, pale blue eyes and the symbol of the pentagram on their flanks. They are mortal enemies of the Energy Kessera.
Water Kessera
The only Kessera that can swim underwater, these Kessera have the unique ability to breathe underwater, and can swim very well, due to the webbing on their legs. They only ever come in shade of blue or turquoise, with blue eyes, they have a teardrop symbol on their flanks, and are mortal enemies of the Fire Kessera.
Fire Kessera
Strangely similar to Frost Kessera, these fiery tempered creatures have fully formed dragon wings and can breathe fire, Only ever seen in shades of red, black, gold or orange, with orange eyes, they have a flame symbol on their flanks, and are mortal enemies of the Water Kessera.
Air Kessera
Similar to Soara, and can come in a range of colours such as silver, black or deep blue-purple, though mainly grey shades. Whilst the Soara have feathered flaps of skin that they can glide with, Air Kessera have fully formed bird wings, and can fly. They always have pale silver eyes, but are rarely blind, and have a cloud symbol on their thigh. They are mortal enemies of the Earth Kessera.
Earth Kessera
Always a shade of brown or dark black-green, with bright green eyes, Earth Kessera are peculiar creatures with vines wrapped around their legs, though what purpose this serves is still unknown. They always have a leaf symbol on their thigh and are mortal enemies of the Air Kessera.
Seasonal Kessera
There have been strange rumours of Kessera seen at Easter with bobtails and stripes, at Christmas with holly patterns, and at Valentines day with heart shaped markings, but none have ever been proven. And now, as Chinese New Year draws closer, oriental patterned Kessera are appearing, some even... breathing fire? This bunch sure are festive! Thought by many as mythical, Seasonal Kessera are supposed to be exclusive, secretive creatures, and I'll guess we'll soon find out, as Kareja has set off to find and capture the 'Chinese New Year' Kessera.
Huge thanks to Sinicat for the fantastic adult lineart, colouring and shading done by me.
by a Kessera's name in the adopted Kessera section, then they are interested in breeding.
they would like to settle down and choose a mate, and if there is a 
it means not interested.
