Cheetah Person

The Cheetah People are a race of humanoid cheetahs first shown in Survival.

The Cheetah People have the heads of cheetahs and furry, spotted skin. They also have retractable claws and sharp fangs to kill their prey. They have the ability to teleport from planet to planet, but they only use this power to go on short hunting excursions. Cheetah People are a dangerous, but playful, race. They search for the most interesting hunts when hungry and will hunt whatever they want, be it sentient or not.

The Cheetah People have a type of symbiotic relationship with their unnamed planet, as well as with the native kitlings. The planet is almost alive and is mentally connected with the Cheetah People. If the Cheetah People fight, the planet starts to destroy itself. As well, if other humanoids arrive on the planet, such as humans or gallifreyans, the planet starts influencing them and slowly turns them into Cheetah People. The Cheetah People also use the kitlings to find new sources of food, since they can mentally control them.
