Dragoncrest Cliffs Hang Out

It was mostly a game to Chacal, who took advantage of the situation to familiarize herself with what this creature was, what it looked like, and how it moved. Unlike a porcupine, it wasn't dangerous to her, which she found somewhat peculiar. The creature's only defense mechanism, it seemed, was the fact that it lived mostly underground- as it lacked a shield of prickly quills, a disgusting musk, or any manner of really defending itself. It had teeth which she could see- but she wasn't frightened of them; they were somewhat similar to a rabbit's teeth, she thought and thus, fairly harmless.

They'd worn the creature out and when Njord moved in to bite at it, she felt suddenly defensive about their quarry, and issued a yip when he did so. The creature was too exhausted to run away from them, and gave up trying. It hunkered down against the ground, which more or less ended the fun- but Chacal was intelligent, and found a new way to play. 

She bounded between Njord and the groundhog, and dipped into a playbow. She issued a small growl, baring her teeth in a cheshire grin- to challenge him to try and get past her to the groundhog. With her posture, she claimed the prey as hers- and if he wanted it, he'd have to get past her.
