Then shall be born the Suthay-Raht
Born to be tested
Among Mother's Others
Fit to endure harsh punishment
Burden bearers, they stand alone
And in the end we will see their triumph."
—All Our Perfect Forms
The Suthay-raht are a bipedal furstock of Khajiit. They are sometimes, incomprehensibly for Khajiit themselves, nicknamed "Ja-Khajiit" or "Ja'Khajiit".[1][2] They are similar in build to the races of man, but like Suthay, they have digitigrade legs.[3] They are typically similar in height to men, but some are said to have trouble fitting through doors.[4] They are completely covered in fur of different colors and patterns and have a tail. Claws are present on hands and feet, and their heads appear very cat-like.[3]
Suthay-raht are known to be good jumpers, agile, sneaky and having a bold spirit. This makes them good adventurers and traders. They are however not as good warriors as Cathay-raht.[5] They are said to be fit to endure harsh punishment, described as burden bearers.[6] Suthay-raht are known to purr and hiss.[7] They also have slight phallic barbs.[UOL 1]
The Suthay-raht furstock was the most common in Morrowind,[8][2] specifically on Vvardenfell, towards the end of the Third Era.[5]
