Scientific Name: Felis alabaster (unconfirmed)
Common Name: Palecat
Classification: Large Feline Fauna — Apex Predator of the Pale Country

Description:
The Palecat is a large, ghostly white feline with fur patterned faintly like cracked porcelain and eyes like cold diamonds. It moves with unnatural grace and silence, often appearing to glide. Its roar is a faint whisper that carries an aura of oppressive silence.

Known Effects on Humans:
Attacks by the Palecat leave no visible wounds but cause victims to feel a gradual “unmaking” of their warmth and vitality.
Survivors report a sensation of slow dissociation from their physical form prior to the final strike.
The presence of the Palecat is often accompanied by an overwhelming feeling of dread and silence.
Linked to sudden disappearances in the Pale Country’s deeper grassland regions.

Behavioral Notes:
Solitary and highly territorial, the Palecat fiercely defends its domain from intruders.
Hunts by stalking silently and watching prey for extended periods.
Its form is believed to be a fae construct or cursed spirit born from broken light and shattered hope.

Warnings / Dangers:
Avoid wandering alone in the Palecat’s territory, especially at twilight or during the realm’s long daylight hours.
Conventional weapons are ineffective; spiritual or magical protections are recommended.
Signs of Palecat presence include sudden drops in temperature, unnaturally muted sounds, and absence of animal calls.
Do not attempt to track or engage; fleeing quietly and without panic is advised.
