The Tutani is a pet based off of a dolphin or other toothed whale.
Appearance

It is a desaturated teal in color, with a pale blue-gray underbelly and matching patches around its jade-green eyes. It has a pair of small, feathered wings which match the markings near its tail flukes, and three triangular dorsal fins which increase in size from front to back.
