I have been given another superb piece by the lovely and talented  ramthedragon

Here's my character Nostradamus in his cat form, looking suitably morose and yet wonderfully mysterious.

Description it was based on: [i]"He was about 6"2, with raven-black hair which had a side-parting to the left. He currently wore what is known as the morning suit, despite that it had just gone midnight. His rather slender hands were gloveless, and were prone to interlacing themselves whenever he was in deep thought. His black shoes bore the signs of many years wear and tear (and underground travel) but had been well-cared for and polished so as to to be seen from several feet before their owner. On his head was perched a shiny black top hat, that seemed to sit there as if it had chosen to do so all by itself, rather than if its owner had chosen to wear it. His trousers were mid-grey and pinstriped, the tailcoat was long and black, his waistcoat was a green the shade of bottle glass and embroidered with a slightly swirly and floral grape-and-vine motif. Clipped across his waistcoat was a golden fob watch chain, that was presumably attached to a fob watch inside the right-hand waistcoat pocket. He wore a white shirt with a high, white starched collar, around which was tied a black bow tie in a very neat - impossibly, geometrically, neat – bow. He had once had rather nice cheeks, but after his death they were slightly sunken in. His left cheek sported a long-healed duelling scar, a remnant of former follies. But this was by no means the most interesting feature of Nostradamus.

His fur tone was interesting, it must be said. He was pale. Incredibly so. His fur was almost the colour of chalk, except that it had a slight grey tinge to it. But around his eyes the fur was a very dark grey, almost charcoal shade.

But even this was not the most unnatural fact of the cat. It was the eyes. Those sparkling emerald eyes, were, if one looked at them for long enough, a mere façade. They were cheerful and warm and full of kindness, it was all genuine; but they hid something much deeper. The longer one stared in, the more one could see the sadness, the grief and the pain that could only have been acquired over centuries."[i/]

Ram, you've captured his essence down on paper beautifully. It's almost exactly like what I'd imagined he'd look like, only better :D
