Kuschel

Kuschel is a leopard seal belonging to Ranveig, the human concubine of Rade Sark. Sark procured the creature for his lover to keep her company, and possibly to protect her from harm. The seal seems to be more intelligent than most, as Drosaico finds its eyes to gleam with unnatural intelligence.

-Kuschel is a German word meaning "snuggle" or "cuddle." It is unknown whether Ranveig or Sark named the creature this, though it seems likely to have been the former.
