Ｗｈａｔ'ｓ Ａ Ｇｅｍｃｕｔｔｅｒ?
A gemcutter is a creature that seems to be a cross between a saber toothed cat, a wolf, and a raptor.
They are very tribal creatures, and it's exceedingly rare for a human to ever see one. They tend to live
in tribes, and are very social creatures when it comes to other gemcutters, though are shy around most
other creatures that are either their size or bigger. When they are fully grown, they are about the size
of a lion. They generally have long, bushy tails, though sometimes they can have shorter tails, or even
multiple tails. All gemcutters have a fluffy mane running up the back of their neck, and these manes
often come in many different styles. They seem to like wearing jewelry, particularly with pendants and
beads made of precious stones, though sometimes they will adorn other items on these, such as feathers,
bones, clay charms, and flowers.
So where do these creatures get their names? Well, usually they live in or around places where precious
stones (such as rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and even rarer gems like diamonds) can be found. They
seem to have an intense fascination with these stones, and will mine them. Sometimes they'll use tools
that they either built or found, but most of the time, they'll use the talons on their front paws. These
talons are incredibly hard and razor sharp, almost like metal, and can cut through many types of stones.
Perhaps you'll be able to befriend one of these elusive creatures?
