Why the dramatic music? Hell if I know. But I do have an idea I wanna share with all you chilla-lovers! (that'd be you).

So I'm startin to get into chess. Been teaching myself the basic rules of the game, and trying to spot the flaws in my strategies, ect. The way I see it: I want something that'll exercise my brain, and if chess doesn't do it then nothing will.

So I had an idea. It'd certainly be a big project for me, as I'd have to buy materials, spend lots of time and get access to a kiln. But regardless: What if there was a chess set for the furry fandom?

Here are my ideas for the pieces. Each piece will be cartoony and clean, meaning no wieners or exposed melons. Also, all the pieces on one side would be white-furred, and on the other, black-furred. Pretty much, you'd expect to see this chess set in a cartoon. The rook (the tower piece) would be a giant kangaroo leaning on a skyscraper. The knight would be a cyberfur horse, aiming a built-in ray gun at something. This'll be because robots have natural armor, like a knight's armor. Also, they are often better fighters, just like a knight. The bishop would be a fat fur eating out of a bucket of popcorn. Why? Because when I think of a bishop, I think of a fat guy. The queen, being the most powerful piece in the game, would be a muscle-bound, female wolf with "Queen of the Gym" on her shirt. Inversely, the king (who has to run from attack and must be protected from the opponent) would be a very feminine, jumpy little guy. So he'd be inspired by fembois. Lastly, the pawns would be little, chibi foxes. If you dunno why they're foxes, you dun know the furry fandom.

Anyway, I'd also make the board itself quite decorative, but I'm keepin the specifics of that to myself. What do ya think? Comments? Questions? Cookies? Oh, please, let there be cookies D=
Hmm..... checkers with pieces shaped like cookies..... I might have to think about that.....
