#tldr my excuse to draw goat people??????and one decrepit bat lady

[b1asho]

Some muttreazik again, this time specific characters I've had in mind. This is an old drawing (one instance of out of date eye color lore old...), I'd love to draw them again but erm finals. Questions comments concerns???

I'm too eepy to really write a lot but :

Randy is the brown-furred guy, he fills the dad role in their farm fam. Tank-born from a human host, strong, but has trouble walking in either bi/quad for too long and has to switch frequently.

Esmerelda (Es) is the long eared lady (also human born). City slicker turned nature-enjoyer. Enjoys 'old world' dresses (but has to modify them for her tail sometimes)

Vera is an old bat lady; you can tell from her very animalistic appearance that she was definitely not tank-born. She's also most likely from the West, where muttreazik get a bit more wild. Likely still born from a human due to her size, what animal shes mixed with, and her ntelligence (also the fact that her batty features don't really line up too well with any one existing bat species)

!!! Her eyes shouldnt be yellow, this was made before i nailed down those color differentiations in mutreazik eyes!!!!!!!! Anyway, their young ward Juliana (Julie) is also a stray, who got stuck with fused hooves instead of hands and a sheep-ish muzzle from her host mother. As i mentioned in the muttreazik ref, it's very uncommon for intelligent muttrazik to be born from animals for the same reason why it'd be hard for us to genetically engineer our own sophont (there's not much for them to work with and a lot of the time theyre just copying whats already there) but it does happen due to muttreazik's unique brain layout allowing them to get around some brain-size rules and Just Make It Happen. They die a lot in the wild because of high rejection rates from the mother and their overall biology making it hard for them to keep up/thrive like their natural kin. Julie is one such case, thankfully found before a coyote got her or something. She's got a claw to help her grab stuff and write more easily.

They also have an intelligent livestock guardian dog, Doug. He's has rudimentary speech abilities (comparable to a parrot) but exceptional barking abilities.
