Quillpunch are generally unpleasant little creatures, aggressive to the point of madness and covered in spines and blade-like growths that make them less than ideal companions. Their native habitat atop cold mountain peaks is harsh and food is scarce, causing them to pursue and attempt to eat almost anything they see. Their fur grows into a pattern reminiscent of knitted fabric, and the pom-pom on top of their heads signals strength and virility to potential mates.
