kitties! =D

This is really nice :)

this is gorgous! Looks like a cover to a comic <3

Hehe... Love it El! ^^ This came out great! ^^

Welcome folks to the Usual Suspects... or more commonly known as my Core group of characters I cycle through in RP. ^^

Nirra the Growlithe (Female - going to be seeing more of her around. Ask icon:xpfOddball about her. XD)
Maiza the Lion. (Male)
Maiza the Marbled Cat (Male - No relation to Maiza the Lion).
Friti the Arctic Wolf (Male in most games. Occasionally have a Female Friti though for variety.)
and Luuko the elemental adept wolf. (Male. Long story.)

Out of all the characters I've had over the years, these 5 have a special place in my heart. ^^

What a cast of characters.

What has me most enthused is she got their personalities down perfectly as they are often portrayed in RP! XD

* Nirra the Growlithe is quite the butch lass - a clear and present Tomboy if there were any. She's not afraid to mix it up with the guys and is quite often found deep in the thick of things. Tends to be restless and often takes all the wrong queues from Luuko... which also has lead her to some interesting encounters. Definitely works hard to be 'one of the guys' and doesn't take crap from anyone... though she does have a soft side - if one knows where to find it.
* Maiza the Lion. Strongman. The muscle of the dynamic, also one of the quietest of them. When he speaks, everyone stops and listens - there's usually something insightful behind his words. Very loyal to Friti, as they share a lengthy history - their darkened paths having crossed many times before. Occasional non-sequitors, quirky references to seemingly abstract or cryptic things, and inside jokes between them is the norm.
* Maiza the Marbled Cat is the smooth talking, con-artist and thief of the group. A relative newcommer and usually finding himself in well over his head. He's very good at what he does, and when things go awry, he is one of the first to adjust and to make a move on an oblique angle, reacting to the new situation with an innate, practiced ease. Disturbingly often is the comic relief of the group.
* Friti the Arctic Wolf is definitely the brains of the operation, charismatic... clear leadership skills. Cocky as hell, but very sure of himself... and is usually right. Got a bit of a soft spot for an old flame he's been chasing, but knows he can't catch and never can be... and an uncertain past he rarely speaks of. Damn tigers are tricky...
* Luuko the elemental adept wolf is kind of the second in command. Apprenticed to Friti, he looks to him almost as a father figure. Tends to do well enough with small teams, but has problems still with larger groups and operations. Still, insanely loyal to his people and will go to extreme lengths to Something of a lady's man, he also has a habit of leaving heartbreak behind him. Funny thing is on occasion this has come back to bite him... He has a son, named after his mentor whom looks almost identical to him. This the only one? Only time will tell.

A very tight-knit group when RPed together (which isn't often) and individually their traits tend to hold true when RP'ed in different realms. Together they are the Usual Suspects. ;P

Wow..... I only feel comfy RPing ONE character, but FIVE?!
How do you manage THAT?

Years of practice. XD I don't RP them all at once, at the same time usually. Typically I just RP one of them in their own separate universe... but each of them has their own personality, quirks and whatnot, so switching between them isn't as big a deal as it used to be

And I only do one RP scene at a time. It's rare that all 5 (or 6 if I bring Luuko's son into things) are in the same scene together. :P Typically I save the whole group for creative writing. Stories, and some very wincing attempts at a comic strip. Got a long way to go with the second... My own drawing skills are very basic. x_X;
