Zafaras primarily have three spikes on their back, but this changes in accordance with different colours and characters. According to the information on an old zafara petpage, these spikes were protective fins and used for defense. Zafaras have an incredible hearing range, but they do not have a good sense of smell. Thanks to a set of powerful hind legs, the Zafara has a jumping ability unlike any other Neopet. Zafaras have an innate ability to create fire as made apparent with their level 2 [[Battledome]] ability ''Zafara Flame''. Because of this, it's rumored they could be guards of [[Fire Faerie]]s.
