A majestic form dives from the treetops before your eyes can register and track it. The light crumpling of leaves behind you is followed by a low, deep feline growl. From the corner of your eye, the emerald green eyes and snow white fur of this creature is all that you catch before it darts through the underbrush. And even as you realize that you are facing not just a tiger, but one bred by magic, gripping your weapon and turning, a hot breath on the back of your neck leaves you with only one impression.... a mouse that has been caught.

This is an example of a tiger that has benefited from the Magebred Animal template. Reared, raised and groomed to a superior example of its breed, Magebred Tigers are currently the purview of the King of Breland and the animal masters of House Vadalis. This is not to say that some have managed to escape back into the wild or have been stolen as cubs, but they are rare enough that they are not on the open market.
