Pumera

The mammalian pumera species is one of the most widely distributed on Nexus, appearing to have adapted to almost every ecosystem that provides sufficient prey for these cunning feline carnivores. It is unknown whether they are native to the planet, or evolved from feral animals. Regardless of their origin, all pumera conform to the basic feline form - retractable claws, whiskered muzzles, long and expressive tails, and the powerful musculature of an ambush predator.

Subspecies
Many subspecies of pumera can be found on Nexus, often color-adapted to the local environment but all with more or less the same physical structure. The pumera species has not been found anywhere but Nexus, though similar big feline predators can be found all over the galaxy.

Whitepaw Pumera
This pumera subspecies can be found in the Deradune region of Nexus, where the Draken have been granted a huge swath of game-filled savannah by a grateful Emperor Myrcalus. Their name comes from their distinctive light-colored paws. They are a favored prey of Draken hunters, who appreciate the risk that comes with hunting such deadly and ferocious creatures.
