When not disguised as a humanoid, the otherwise humanoid rakshasa has the head of an animal. Often, they possess the heads of great cats (such as a tiger or panther) or a snake (like a cobra or viper), yet other heads are not unknown—apes, jackals, vultures, elephants, mantises, lizards, rhinos, boars, and more are possible. In most cases, the type of head a rakshasa possesses speaks in some way to its personality—a tiger-headed rakshasa is stealthy and ravenous, while a boar-headed one might be gluttonous and crude.

Rakshasas in DnD are usually cruel and full of hatred towards mortals, but the one we found in our game had her mind broken by being enslaved for a very long time before we set her free. :( I tried to experiment with some textures here, and gave her soft eyes instead of cold ones.
