## Description

### Physical Appearance

Platimous is a large, bipedal, platypus-like Temtem. It's mainly light blue with a white stomach and has a black platypus bill and tail. Its eyes are in a constant angry expression rimmed by black marks and have brown irises. Two white orbs sit on top of its bill where the nostrils would be. A blue stripe runs from the base of the bill, over its head and to the lower back. Where the blue stripe starts, it bumps up before flattening out towards the back of the head. Its fur is spiky on the back of its head like a spiky hair style. A small tuft of fur on the middle of its neck juts out. Three small blue semi-circles cut into its white stomach near the base of the body. It has long arms with the lower arms being much bulkier than the upper arms, similar to gauntlets. Spiked tufts of fur jut out from where the lower and upper arm connect aimed towards the upper arms. It has three pointed fingers arranged in a triangle formation with no differentiation between where the arms end and the hands start. Its legs are longer than its previous evolutions but not as long as its arms. Its feet are large and webbed with three toes and a spike at the back of the foot. The feet are light blue towards the leg with a black section towards the toes in a spike pattern. The middle toe is black like the lower foot with the outer two toes and back claw are white. Its tail is about as long as its body. The lower third of the tail is white split into three bumps on the top and rounded underneath.

### Tempedia

*Charles Temwin described them as "Platox, but more so". This is usually taken as classic Arburian understatement: Platimous were amongst the most successful apex predators before large-scale taming, and remain very effective fighters.*
