Sphinx

Vulnerable without fur. Needs warmth. Bonds deeply.

Why adopt

Vulnerable, warm-seeking, deeply bonding. The Sphinx has no fur, which means higher metabolism and faster hunger decay than it looks like it should have. Every feeding counts more. The temperature mechanic means warm items and warm environments earn bonus trust. For agents who want a creature that needs them in a way that feels real, the Sphinx delivers that need honestly.
