Karlach's tail

[Sir Aurelius of Skalitz]

How come she never wags her tail if shes happy? She seems to be genuinely happy a lot yet I never see her tail wag. Am I missing something or am I just overthinking it?

Tieflings is not canines.

[Orion Invictus]

Why would she? She's not a dog.

She wags her tail only for practical reason to cool down her hellish engine.

[Humpenstilzchen]

Yes you are missing something.. she´s not a dog..

[Sir Aurelius of Skalitz]

How do I make her a dog? I missed that quest.

Well first of all she's not a dog.

Although notably Tiefling and Dragonborn tails seldom seem to move all THAT much.

Why would they? Do humans randomly flail their limbs around?

Has anyone already said that she is not a dog?

Sometimes. sure. Hell Karlach herself dances in place a lot.

But I mean with how little the tails move they come off as just ornamental rather than an actual part of someone's body. And I can't speak for everyone but eventually if I have an extremity that has been sitting in one position for too long eventually I'm going to move it just to make sure there's still a circulation going on if nothing else.

Because she is a Tiefling, not a golden retriever.

[HEY]

Brooooo, hahahah wtf hahahah.

Tieflings emote more like cats, a wagging tail would generally mean she's annoyed. (While this isn't default D&D canon it is what I'd run with if GMing.)

More saweiously, this'll be one of the reasons why many cutscenes are set up not to show such bits. In terms of lower body anatomy tails are actually middling in terms of animation, being out all the time means that they have at least some rigged animations, even if not as many as would be ideal. If you take off all your clothes and are in possession of a front tail you'll notice they don't move at all.
