Table of Feline Instincts

Here I present a table of "Feline Instincts". Or in other words, random cat behaviors. I built this is for Psi-Wars and the Asrathi, but it applies to any cat or catfolk race where a player might want inspiration on what to do for a bit of flavor. Catfolk seem to be a favorite racial option in GURPS. I've probably had as many catfolk PC's as any other race except humans. Only elves might come close. So hopefully a fair number of you will find this useful.

 This was requested by Kalzazz, and it seems simple enough. 

  1. Grooming fur with the tongue 
  2. Looking up distractedly a something no one else can see or care about
  3. Giving a small startled jump
  4. Rubbing up against a nearby object
  5. Spotting a small moving object to chase
  6. Attacking a small dangling object. 
  7. Curling up somewhere to rest
  8. Sniffing something half-interested
  9. Walking impossibly slowly
  10. Climbing up something 
  11. Slowly blinking at someone
  12. Staring intensely at someone
  13. Stretching out and extending claws while yawning
  14. Hacking up a hairball
  15. Flopping onto something 
  16. Sleeping with eyes 3/4's of the way shut. 
  17. Eating something random nearby
  18. Swishing the tail back and forth
  19. Suddenly running a very short distance to look at something
  20. Kneading something with claws 

This is designed so that if you need your cat or cat person to do something randomly feline, you have a reference to pick from or roll on. A simple 20 sided die will do, or just click the button below.  

I hope you find this useful. At least one of you should. Happy Gaming!
