Senses

Hearing

Ears are located high and towards the rear, on either side of their heads. They can move each ear individually to listen forward or behind; or to track the movement of a target. They have exceptional hearing, but only hear normal audio ranges.

Vision

During normal light pupils look feline. But in periods of low light, the pupil widens to allow more light, and their vision shifts towards the ultraviolet range. This gives them excellent night vision. Owing to their ancestry as predatory animals the Qaktoro and Tuoro do not see the color green, they perceive this color as shades of gray. the Tula and Qakla do see the color green.

Smell

Members of the clan retain a sensitive sense of smell. Their sense of smell is twice as sensitive as a human, and they can usually identify the components of a scent if they recognize them.

Taste

The Qaktoro sense of taste is actually rather weak. For this reason much of what they eat, and drink for pleasure tends to have strong flavors. Tula, Tuoro, and Qakla sense of taste is closer to human. They prefer their foods to be less seasoned than their cousins, but they can eat any Qaktoro meal.
