I'm starting off with Silverbacks. There is some resemblance to the Sibiccai of C&M, but even though mine were first (early 1987), I won't be suing ICE. ;)

Silverbacks look like bipedal jackals. At 5'3", they are about a head shorter than a Human, though their ears redress the balance. They mass around 110 lbs, so appear slighter than a Human. Their fur is mostly tan with black stripes down the back, lighter (almost white) on their chest and belly, and black on the tip of their long (over 3') bushy tails. Their fur is short but very soft; it would make a valuable pelt for anyone unscrupulous enough. They have short claws on their hands and feet which are useful for fighting and digging. Their muzzles have small but sharp teeth. Silverbacks have eyes of a soft brown or yellow.
