Description

Text by :iconfrazamm:
Saatir are mammal analogues, bearing live young and able to suckle them with their own milk. Tetraploid, each saatir cell has four sets of chromosomes. However, they produce monoploid gametes and it takes three individuals to produce offspring. Male fertilise females, who then pass on their fertilised ova to the other females for full fertilisation and implantation. This involves a complex mating system where there is sexual competition not only amongst the males, but females as well. Dominant females in general do not tend to get pregnant.
Males are larger than the females although some females are quite large. All have beards and females sport longer manes. Males and dominant females sport elaborate horns.
Saatir are almost erect bipeds, stooping slightly forward. They are digitigrade, with thigh, shin and metarsus of the same proportions. Saatir look like theropods or walking birds when walking.
They have a strong sense of smell and are easily aroused by the olfactory signals of other species, who consider them 'horny'.

Whew! Sorry for the wait! This is a saatir for :iconfrazamm:, who kindly read and critiqued my most recent novel, New Frontiers. www.thekingdomsofevil.com/?pag…
The deal is that whoever reads and critiques New Frontiers gets a picture of the alien (or whatever) of their choice, and here's Franzamm's. Description coming soon!

That would make a good Man from Leng.I came up with my own head cannon where they came from an alternate Earth or Earth millions of years in the future. Their resemblance to humans being the result of convergent evolution.
