Description
"When I was younger I recall that of my family I was the one with the temper. That my tantrums were, largely, wrath incarnate - bad enough that my mother would have to wait for my father to get home."

"Whenever he did the storm that was my childish fury had long since blown over, and as much as I wanted to hug him I knew I needed to stay away."

"For when she would lean in, whispering into his ear and have his face contort into a loathsome scowl, I knew what it was she had said... that she told him of what I had broken or who I had struck."

"But... when I came back to the world, so did that temper..."

"It... it wasn't - it isn't - the same. It is this all consuming flame within me that wishes to take control of me... my body... my life... everything I am."

"And it does."

"When it does all I feel - all I can see before things get hazy from the agonizing pain - is unleashed rage."

"Pure. Unadulterated. Beastly."

---

Of the zoanthropic strains few are more renowned for their unabashed rage and unhinged savagery as the weretiger. Though more famous the werewolf is not the king of its kind in terms of raw power nor blinding ferocity - such a title belongs to the ailuranthropes - but it should not be discredited entirely either, as both are far more in every regard than mere men.

Katie "Kate" Cosner's unusual predicament - her nature as a wereliger - results in a beast that has many of the most distinct qualities of her heritages made manifest in the forefront. The most notable is Kate's terrifying anger; when disturbed, confronted, injured or even annoyed, she is a hurricane of remorseless, killer vengeance.

Classically weretigers are symbols of justified vengeance made physically manifest, but Kate is neither weretiger nor werelion; she is something more than either alone, for better... and worse.

---

This is one of those commissions that was a long time coming, but the end result is very much worth the wait, as Jocarra's talent is well known. Some of the major goals established were to give Kate a truly menacing, terrifying appearance, and to truly emphasize how brutal the process is for her, as well as cement her realistic rendition. Small elements exist to better identify her as a character in the form of subtle markings on her truly transformed shape, to more obvious elements like her hair.

We may not see Kate again until another future sketch of her is completed, but I believe this will tide over our appetite for zoanthropic destruction and horror.
