It's The Eye Of The Tiger...
It's the thrill of the fight... (Chimera)

Strix, the smallest of his sons, had been the quickest and most dedicated to learning the art of fighting and protection. Thus, Chimera made it a point to take the boy on deep patrols away from their home base. He was still very aware of the child and his well being, but he didn't have to babysit the boy. He'd earned this bit of freedom and taking him out was a bit of a reward.
The heavy rains had pushed predators and prey alike into the falls. The thick canopy of cedars forming a barrier between the elements and those hiding within. Strix had been the first to see the tiger, though they both smelled it long before. The cats had a habit of trying to mark everything. Well... newsflash, buddy. This was Fenmyre territory.
Chimera got the feline's attention with a rough growl. The cat was instantly on its feet, creeping towards the wolf with its back arched. It didn't phase the dire brute and he stalked forward himself, teeth flashing as he snapped and snarled. This was the King giving the cat a chance to run away unscathed. It didn't take it. The tiger swept out a Chimera, claws extended, the razor sharp edges just grazing through the brutes fur. With a guttural growl, Chi launched forward, closing the distance between himself and the tiger. He bit hard into its shoulder, tasting blood in his maw. In his peripheral vision, he could see Strix harrying the cat with quick attacks.
Chimera is a very adult character and takes part in very adult situations. Don't read his threads. Ever.
Chi has three black Tibetan Mastiff's as guards. Assume they're very close by.
