One of the few mamono native to the Reptile Kingdom that aren't reptiles, Lynians are wide spread and well liked. They are a member of the werecat family, native to the Reptile Kingdom. In order to adapt to the unique ecosystem of the Kingodom, Lynians have grown to be smaller than the average height, only about as tall a goblin, making it easier for them to evade the fearsom predators that dwell in the Reptile Kingdom wilderness. Despite this, Lynians still maintain an adult, curvy figure, even if they are short. They all have distinct feline features, particularly cat like ears, tails, and paws, however individuals with rounded ears similar to a lion or bear and individuals with bushy, fox like tails do exist. The coloration of their fur can vary wildly. While most Lynians are in more natural colors and patterns, it is not uncommon to see more unnatural colors amongst them such as greens or blues. However the Lynians most recognizable feature is not their body, but their voice. Lynians have a very distinctive speech pattern. When a Lynian talks, not only is their speech littered with cat like sounds, but at the same time Lynian will use every pawsible oppurrtunity to use a cat pun. While there are those who find it annoying most who deal with Lynians on a regular basis simply take in stride, and some who spend a great deal of time surrounded by Lynians will find themselves speaking in the exact same manner.

In the wilds Lynians can be divided into two distinct groups. Felynes and Melynx. Felynes can be identifiable by their white fur, frequently a thin brown stripes and a paw print pattern on their naval. They are generally peaceful and will leave travelers well enough alone if unprovoked. Instead of attacking travelers they much prefer keeping to themselves and may even assist travelers by giving them directions or briefly distracting a dangerous creature before making their own escape. However, one should not be fooled. While Felynes are not aggressive, they will fiercely defend themselves and each other, using their tooth picks (the fang of something very big and dangerous tied to a stick creating a tool similar to a pickaxe), boomerangs, and explosives, however they will avoid serious injury and will quickly tunneling underground to make a hasty retreat when overwhelmed.

Melynx can be identified by their black fur and white markings. They frequently wear cloth masks to cover the lower half of their face. While Felynes are harmless unless provoked, Melynx pose a threat that few other being in the Reptile Kingdom pose. Not the threat of death or rape, but the threat of straight robbery. Melynx are masters of pickpocketing, however despite this Melynx don't simply pick their victims pockets and leave them unawares. Instead, when a Melynx sees a potential target she will charge them at smack them with their Cats Paw Club at the same time robbing their hapless victim. The blow is rarely hard enough to cause anymore harm than a bruised pride but it is certainly enough to get someone's attention. After having successfully robbed their target they will almost always taunt the victim with what they stole before disappearing underground. While women are usually ignored, if a Melynx sees a man, it is almost guaranteed that she will attempt to rob him. Unfortunately for their victims, Felynes consider Melynx to be one of their own and will defend them just fiercely as they would other Felynes, so harming a Melynx often results in the perpetrator not only contending with Melynx trying to rob them but also the Felynes trying to defend their comrades.

Wild Lynians live in nearly every region of the Reptile Kingdom, in villages tucked away in areas that are easily defensible and difficult for the large and powerful beasts to get to. These villages have a very large pile of various objects in which the Melynx who live their will leave their stolen goods, so a person who is robbed by a Melynx can almost always find what they've lost in this pile. While it would initially seem like a poor strategy to rob someone, only to leave the ill gotten goods in the middle of town for anyone to take, the truth is, Melynx don't do this for the stolen goods. They steal from men in an attempt to lure them to the village. Despite being in secluded areas, these Felyne Villages are not difficult to find. Both the villages and pathes leading to them are well decorated with carvings and paintings depicting cats and pawprints, often in bright colors. When a visitor enters the village especially if the person is man, the Lynians who live their are extremely welcoming and hospitable to them, giving them a feast in the visitors honor and doing everything they can to make their guest as happy and comfortable as possible.

This actually the Wild Lynians method of aquiring mates and strengthening their tribe. Men and women who enter the village are pampered and well cared for, often forming a stark contrast between the predator filled wilds and the Felyne Village. While any visitor is permitted to come and go from the village as they please, many of those who find themselves in this situation choose to stay in the village instead of brave the dangers of the wilderness again. Human women end up monsterizing and becoming one of the Lynians while men live out the rest of their days being pampered by a harem of Felynes and Melynx.

The Felyne Villages frequently trade with the civilized portions of the Reptile Kingdom, primarily trading raw materials found in the wilds for luxury goods to better pamper their men with. They have also formed a deal with the Hunters Guild, quickly and efficiently bringing hunters back to the safety of the guilds local base camp when they are incapacitated, for the fee of one third of that hunters current missions earnings every time. These dealings with the Hunters Guild and the civilized regions of the kingdom have resulted in Lynians joining the civilized portions of Reptile Kingdom society instead of all remaining in their own villages.

These while both Felynes and Melynx can be found working in towns and cities, Domestic Felynes are much more variable both in appearance and career paths. They sell their services to various people within the kingdom, many taking on jobs as Housekeepers and Chefs. These Lynians work extremely hard, cooperating with each other and with others and most often go beyond the expectations put on them. Housekeepers will have their employers home spotless and well organized, Chefs will always feed their employers large banquets that are not only delicious and nutritious, but also magically improves their health and stamina or even provides varying degrees of elemental resistances or boosts various abilities. However they employ themselves anywhere a worker could be needed, from farm hands to lab assistants, making them a fairly common sight around towns and cities.

Domestic Felynes also work for extremely low prices. After an initial hiring fee, all they ask of their employer is room and board. However getting and maintaining equipment for the for them to use as well paying for ingredients and materials is the employers responsibility. To the Domestic Felyne, the true payment is the potential for a husband. She will work tirelessly, not only to serve a man they work for, but also to seduce him. Always presenting herself as available and willing to him and constantly tempting him to have her serve him, not only in the job he hired her for, but also as a woman. Needless to say, after haveing been tempted by a woman working so loyally for him, few men resist her seduction.

Many Domestic Felynes work for the Hunters Guild, often as porters, bringing supplies to a hunters camp during a quest and bringing gathered goods back. Many Lynian chefs also work in Guild Gathering halls meals to the hunters and quite a few hunters have Lynians acting as their personal chefs and housekeepers. However a many more Domestic Felynes have taken an active role in the field, hiring themselves out to a hunter and directly supporting him in battle. These Felynes have been given the title of Palicoe by the Guild. They commonly wear armor and carry weapons made from left over materials after a Hunter has made his armor and weapons and thus have armaments that are both more powerful and far more varied than a Wild Lynians. They support their hunter, not only with these weapons and the boomerangs and explosives that Wild Lynians carry, but also with a wide variety of various gadgets, ranging from magical horns that will heal and bolstrr their alies, to land mines, electrical and pitfall traps, and even a wooden tank with a small cannon. In the end these Palicoes lack the attacking power to pose a significant threat to the mighty beasts that the Hunters Guild deals with, they do make for excellent support for their hunter and they will fight courageously against these foes that could easily overwhelm them. There are also a number of Palicoes who will go on missions on their own, though frequently on the behalf of their hunter. These Palicoes are known as prowlers, and while they may not be much more powerful than the average Palicoe, but they are much more skilled and thus should never be taken lightly.

It should be noted that while Lynians are more resistant to Matabi than other Werecats, only getting a light buzz from it than getting completely intoxicated, they do have a much stronger reaction to another herb called Felvine. Getting doused in Felvine dust will cause a Lynian to become dopey and lethargic often times content to simply sit there and enjoy the buzz. Conversely if something else were to be doused in Felvine dust will cause the Lynians in the area to swarm whatever had been doused in it. Some hunters have even taken to making small explosives filled woth powdered Felvine to cover their target in Felvine and exploit the local Lynians. While the Lynians have never shown any ill will about this it is still frowned upon by most. Wild Melynx find the herb particularly irresistible and should a traveler be carrying any of it they will steal the Felvine before anything else, because of this many experienced travelers carry pouches of Felvine to distract Melynx from stealing their more valuable items. Strangely other breeds of werecat are largely unaffected by Felvine.

[And here we have the third non-reptile added to the roster of RK Monster Girls. These girls are based of off the Felynes and Melynx from Monster Hunters. They kind lf ended up being like a more hard working devil in catgirl form. Which is cool. In case anyone is confused as to how a race of catgirls became native to the Reptile Kingdom, well the Reptile King and Feline Queen have a close relationship so a bit of cross over occured.
