I love designs with a lot of red so this one really stole my heart :3 The simplified lore I cooked up: They are the form a certain deity takes when they descend and interact with mortals. No one's quite sure which deity they actually are and no one's quite brave enough to interrogate a god either. The city Red Lotus hangs around calls them a sentinel, but really, they spend most of their time napping in the warm sun and demanding freshly caught fish from locals. What a strange way for someone like them to act...? PS: I added the red whiskers because I thought they looked kinda cool, lmk if you'd like it more without them
