Preston is a [[Snow Stalker]] that is owned by [[Marguerit Maida|Margeurit Maida]]. How they met is unknown but it is presumed that they met when [[Marguerit Maida]] made it to land. Their meeting is set after the events of her third log but before [[Subnautica: Below Zero|Subnautica Below Zero]] and maybe even before [[Subnautica]]. |

Preston similar to his [[Snow Stalker|species]] has a broad snout filled with long sharp teeth that stick out even when his mouth is closed, giving a snaggle-toothed appearance. Two pairs of the teeth are greatly enlarged to form tusks that protrude upwards from the bottom jaw. In addition to these two pairs of tusks, a single, smaller tusk is borne on the lower jaw, positioned in the center and pointing forwards. |

⚫ | |||
On top of his head is a fin-shaped crest that appears to be a modified dorsal plate. His crest is grey in color aside from a small cyan strip towards the base that glows in the dark, these strips are likely for the purpose of looking like eyes to intimidate, however his real eyes lie behind the mouth. Likewise to his species, his tongue glows the same bright cyan color as the stripes on his head and the tip of his tail. |

Preston appears as a fairly typical member of its species though small in stature, being roughly halfway between the size of a [[Snow Stalker Baby]] and a typical adult Snow Stalker. Whether this is due to Preston simply being young or an unusually small adult is unknown. |
|||
⚫ | |||
His body is almost entirely covered in shaggy white fur, with horizontal grey stripes along the back. Areas of his body that are exposed show smooth grey skin. A row of grey, sharp dorsal plates runs from his neck to around one third of the way down the tail. |

He has has four squat limbs covered in fur, each limb ending with four long claws on the feet. Additionally, his forelimbs possess a dewclaw on the inside of his ankle. His body ends with a long tail that tapers to a point, the very tip of which glows cyan. |
