Species: ottsel
An ottsel is a species in the Jak and Daxter universe. It is a hybrid cross between an otter and a weasel, and as such, its name is a portmanteau of the two terms. Ottsel characters in the series include Daxter, a protagonist throughout the series; Tess, Daxter's love interest who was transformed into an ottsel towards the end of Jak 3; Count Veger, who "evolved" into a Precursor ottsel towards the end of Jak 3... Although all known Precursors are ottsels, it is unknown if all ottsels are, in effect, Precursors. Along with moncaws and lurkers, ottsels are the only known non-human species with the ability to speak.
