Getyr, while known to live on their own, are commonly seen traveling with magic users as familiars. While they don't perform much magic on their own, they do have the ability to boost other magic user's magical powers.
Each one has a different mark that appears in one of their eyes, and matches some of their body markings.
They are lovers of shiny things, their marked eye able to pinpoint precious stones that would normally be hidden to the naked eye. This is also a highly sought after trait in them which can become negative as people looking for riches attempt to enslave the Getyr to find gems and other things. From what little magic they use, their marked eye also dictates what their special ability is, which can vary greatly.
The claw or talon on the end of their tail is mostly to help climb trees to get at fruit. Originally thought to be used for hunting, until a Getseer (a very rare type of Getyr, known for shockingly high magical abilites and able to speak any and all tongues) laughed at the scholars and explained otherwise. While normal Getyr can talk, it is via telepathy. When actual speaking from the mouth is usually along the lines of speaking like a parrot, repeating things they hear people say. If a Getyr accepts your invitation to become your familiar, you both can speak to one another via the telepathy.
Females have one set of horns, while males vary between 2 and 3 sets (the second and third sets being much smaller then the main set). Getyr like to adorn their horns with rings, baubles and other shiny pieces, showing off the best things they found. This is also thought to be apart of a hierarchy, as those with the most shinies tend to be more popular and respected.
Of course, fur colors vary, but tend to be more on the muted side of the spectrum, to help blend with their surroundings.
This is subject to change over time. But this is all that is known about the Groot at this current time
