Kind of always wondered would Ahri be considered a furry? If so, I am totally down.

Looks like a kemonomimi-style girl, which is considered either not furry, or furry-light by a lot of people.

I'm of the unpopular opinion that it is furry cause it works off of the combination of human and animal traits. But many consider it not furry, either cause they detest the idea that the thing they like is of the hated furry or they just don't think its animal enough.

If they have the beast tag, then they have the best tag, and are appropriate. No playable races do - they're all 'humanoid'

In the world space, animal intelligence generally caps at 3 unless it's a magical beast of some sort, and sentient creatures all generally punch well above that.

Ah, that is interesting to learn. So it all depends on tagging and intelligence, makes sense. Would be disturbing and messed up if you could walk up to a random person in the world and go "You are my animal companion, now follow!" And they kinda had to.

So Chewbacca would be a level 4, "Very Furry"?

No, Chewy is sentient, so not a true furry - might get away with semi-furry though.

Furries are sentient though? So Chewey by that logic would be Furry? Furries are anthros or anthropomorphic creatures that typically resemble animals or fictional beasts. Part of anthropomorphization is the addition of human intelligence.

Yes, furries are typically sentient. I would say that Chewie would fall under level 3, as he wears some clothing and adornment, and has a more human shape than animal shape.

Oooh, I would LOVE that -- I guess that so many of the companions are like mercurial cats that nobody felt the need to have another one so far.

But yes, feline species are great.

Then I suggest you gently root for a catlike race. Just like I'm rooting for sorcerers. Because then you'll get what you want - catfolk romances - in no time wink Just stay away from less sanitary jokes, because Larian won't go there.

Err, did Tsundokugames just get banned?
