thinking about a more lion-like catfolk/ rakasta for a character instead of leopard/ jaguar. Thoughts on using the tabaxi as is or making changes? Is the intent to cover a wide “cat” spread?
Tabaxi are really aimed at agility/springy sort of cats, so a rakasta would be a different design IMO. Str-based, for a start
