During the three years Blackfur was active in the Ziggurat arena, more than one wife or girlfriend or lover mused "That beast is so unusual. He would make a good fur coat!" And more than one half-drunk lover would say "I'll go get it for you!" and volunteer to fight the beast in the arena.
Blackfur being Blackfur, someone would indeed end up wearing his fur coat, but not the person who asked for it. When he was given sapience and it became possible (with his permission) to look into his mouth without ending up in his stomach, it was found that the teeth at the back of his mouth were sharp and pointed back toward his throat - the beast was naturally adapted to swallowing prey whole. Later he would cough up any armor, fur, or bones he could not quickly digest, because why waste time when there was someone else to be eaten?
The combatants who have worn the Blackfur costumes over the years since his retirement often follow his example and eat living prey whole, but none of them are quite as good at it as the original.

He's not really black... more dark blue really

And THAT comment reminded me of the live action Dudley Do-Right movie XD

That is an artifact of the blue sketch, which I was not able to get quite black before coloring around and over it. His son Warth is black-er but will still have some bluish highlights.

Ooooh, lovely! Do you think he might like a little "donation"? ;;)

As in a meal? He's usually happy to accept those.

Yep! And yay! I think predators like him deserve a little break from having to fight for their meals sometimes.

I think he's my favorite monster you've ever drawn.
