Description

She's a main character, not a sona. 

Sounds: Yen - groans, roars and shrieks
Location examples: Landscape ex1 , Landscape ex1.2 , Landscape ex1.3 , Landscape ex2 , Landscape ex 2.2 , Landscape ex2.3 , Landscape ex4 , Landscape ex4.2 , Landscape ex 4.3 , Landscape ex0 , Landscape ex0.1
Some music that would fit well if you decide to draw this beastie: Lorne Balfe Silver for Monsters Cloakd and Dagger The Hunter 

Random facts:
1. Yen belongs somewhere within the period of 14-17th century. Which technically means she's dead by now. 
2. She can speak the human language, it's the only thing that differs her from other creatures in the realm. 
3. She has 2 companions that she met in her later life, a griffin and a bunny.
3. Due to her nature of frequently killing and dining on humans (mostly women who work in the fields away from home or lone travelers) she often tends to be a subject of bounty contracts which result in her traveling and moving more often than she would like. 
4. Yen moves more similarly to a feline than a canine. She has no problem climbing trees, cliffs and even castles and city walls. She doesn't do so very often however.
5. During the 17th century, not long after she got captured, part of her ears got cut off and both of her hind legs broken after a series of torment. 
6. A few decades before her death, she was the property of a captain known for raiding merchant ships and taking over warships, she was used for getting rid of enemy crews. 
7. She's not very aggressive or willing to fight by nature. She tends to avoid conflict as much as possible. 
She even uses her tail to fool people more than actually fight. She's  known to hide in bushes, leaving her tail exposed which often makes people think they're dealing with a sort of draconid or any other huge reptile and not an enlarged doggo. 
8. She really loves seals and bunnies. She would rather hang herself than suffer hurting one.</sub>

UPDATE January 2017: New ref, slight changes and add-ons in design (added shoulder marking, removed elbow spikes and accessories, changed claw design, slightly altered mane and ear design, changed teeth and height, added sounds)
Kept the "bestiary entry" design. 
If you have any questions about her feel free to ask!
Thank you for looking! ♥


UPDATE 2015 Turned the whole thing into a piece of "Bestiary" book rather than ref sheet.
I suppose you can not really call her my fursona anymore for that reason, rather a made up beast that's serves me as a main character.

Yen kinda reminds me of a maned wolf with a very long thorn vine(?) as a tail. This is a very unique design. I applaud to you good sir, for making this character look nothing like anyone else's.
