### Devil Cats
Yatuda tabaxi, otherwise known as the half-rakshasa's or devil cats, are the result of an infernal line of tabaxi who revere their larger and more fiendish feline counterparts. Long ago, when their people were facing famine and drought, they made a deal with inferal powers and bred with devils. Now, centuries later, the man eating yatuda are one of the more dangerous encounters one could have adventuring the lands of Worldspire.
### Walk The Killer's Path
Each yatuda has to undergo a ritualistic hunt as they come of age. They stalk a path in their lands, waiting patiently in the shadows for their prey to show itself to them. When it does, they are judged by their elders for how they handle it.
Traditionally, there are two ways to handle a hunt. The first option is a brutal and efficient ambush where the prey is instantly killed, skinned, and eaten. The second option is riskier, but often far more rewarding. As the yatuda share their lands with their common brethren, it can be quite easy for them to pass as a normal tabaxi and deceive their prey. The foolish will lead them back to their travelling companions, dooming them as well.
Few yatuda choose this riskier path, but those who do are destined for great and terible things.
