Vehta

You ever meet a Sapient so beautiful you're just about ready to throw your morals away and join their damned Empire? I know, I know, not every Vehta is a part of the Empire of Blood, there are plenty living outside it. But I haven't met those, have I? You know who I have met? Empire soldiers. And let me tell you, they're the most perfect creatures I have ever seen. -Unknown
    The Vehta are the founders and rulers of the Empire of Blood. They are known to be both beautiful and dangerous in equal measure.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Four limbs and a tail, standing upright on long legs. Their feet and hands both have claws and their teeth are sharp. Their ears are large and triangular, their heads are elongated, they have four eyes and they are covered in a layer of short fur. That fur, as well as the skin beneath, is pastel-coloured with darker markings. Their tails have something like a blade on the end.

Genetics and Reproduction

Vehta are all one sex which is both "male" and "female". To reproduce, Vehta are able to choose which partner will fertilize the other's eggs. The eggs grow inside the Vehta for three months before being lain and tended to for another four months. At this point, one to three of them will hatch.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Vehta are pure carnivores. Some harvest meat from Sapients under their control for food, but most consume only meat grown in labs.
