Tepechichi
Hello, travelers of Mictlan!
Today we present to you the concept art a nocturnal and reclusive creature which, when sighted by the Spanish, was reported and drawn in the colonial manuscripts as a ferocious beast... but it was just a ferret!
This is the Tepechichi, translated from Nahuatl as "dog of the wilds" or "old man of the wilds". It’s an animal with piercing black eyes, prominent and pointy teeth, a thin and long body of thick grayish fur.
Thanks to its sharp and retractile claws, it is capable of climbing trees and walls with great ease.
Be careful and pay attention on your journey, because this agile and naughty being can appear at any time…
We are launching our Kickstarter campaign soon!
(have you registered yet? It only takes a minute!)
