Decided to make a creature today while following along the Elegant Fantasy Creature Generator. I had a REALLY busy week and wanted to do something a little less taxing on the pink matter residing in my skull today.

Putting it Together
A Vaekar is a creature that resembles a griffon but resembles a bear instead of an eagle. They usually have mossy green fur that blends in well with forest and swamp environments and have keen eyesight.
This specific Vaekar, however, has been blinded. Captured as a youngling by vicious poachers, this Vaekar wears an intimidating sprawl of scars carved into its fur in order to make it look fierce. Unbeknownst to the villains, however, Vaekar are intelligent enough to learn single words and their meanings, and began to pick up on the habits and routines of the poachers. Vaekar are carnivores, but they typically only eat fish and small game.
The poachers became an...acquired taste.
When the adventurers encounter this Vaekar, they are sympathetic. Blind, grounded, and reliant on touch, it quickly endears itself to them by playing hard-to-get. But it bides its time, pretending to slowly warm to the adventurers to lull them into a false sense of friendship so it can experience that delicious taste again.
