A furry tail-snake thing bit poor ol' Arkanite on the posterior and... well... he *changed*, the poor fellow. Developed an appetite for rats and porcupines. Started growing fur in places they shouldn't ever grow. Soon the tail, still with a mind of its own, was somehow *his* and looked right on him. A Viverrae that looks most like a pine marten.
