Fiction:The Spore Lucid Dreaming Experiment/Creature:Okapa

This is a wild creature in the mountains of those planets that belong to The Pink Tribe. It is tamed by warriors of the mountain clans in a rite of passage. The warrior will jump on the back of this creature and hold on as the creature tries to attack them and throw them off. If they manage to stay on, the Okapa will submit and become a friendly mount. They appear rather amphibian but are actually covered in waterproof feathers. Okapas dive into the water in search of fish, and at night they roost in huge rookeries in the mountains. Their horns make it easy to smash things in battle.
