I believe a kangaroo has the Grillick nature.

A Human has the FB nature. A Klingon does not.

I believe a CROW has the Grillick nature.

If not that, then I believe a COUGAR has the Grillick nature (but not if the crow does - I won't guess it then, but will ask)

FB - I believe Elephants and jaguars and bobcats have FB nature, while heffalumps, jagulars, and backsons do not.

Such inundation with guesses I see here. A kangaroo and a crow each lack the Grillick nature, but a cougar and 2 jaguars collectively each have it.

Drachefly gets a token. Or six, depending on how that works.

I believe an umbrella has the Grillick nature, but I also believe the Grillick nature does not conform to the rules of the game.

FB gets two gavels, and the Master notes that the rules of the game have the Grillick nature, even though they are stupid.

Something has the Grillick nature if it has a 'u' in it.

FB gets a fake point, because the old Grillick nature was cheating.

Now, Bill Clinton has the Grillick Nature, but Barack Obama lacks it.

I believe something has FB nature if it is real, and does not if it is fictional.

drachefly gets a point for the FB nature that was way easier than I thought it would be.

The Master ponders a moment, then gives a small jar of sand to FreakyBoy. "Yes, joy has the AT nature. However, I believe that you would be best served by asking about tangible things."

SUMMARY
Has: love, anger, joy
Has not: fence post, logic
