For some reason the species catagory made me lol. Would've listed him under Human, but that wouldn't be right either because he's not.
What he is however, is an Ihneumon (originally inspired by the Ichneumon myth from Egypt, only put in a bit more fleshy appearance)
Anyhow, I'll just copy the rest from my submission at DA:
"Meet Madár! The Copper Ihneumon, or the Autumn Ihneumon as a few of his titles
He's one of the more special kind of characters I made for the Fhanitica Universe. Why? Because he's a subspecies of the Ihneumon race. That means that he has so many differences than the usual Ihneumon that he is considered an outcast, a rare species, or just special and cannot live among his fellow brothers and sisters because of these differences.
He is given the title Copper Ihneumon because of his alluring hair color and his brownish tanned skin. It looks quite similar to the pack of Ihneumon that live in the Blooded Forest. His hair, however, is much stronger in texture and actually appears to glow like copper. His longer golden hair is the same and the Humans in Roodcliff actually believe every strand of his yellow hair are made of golden threads and some have tried to hunt him to win profit from it.
Why is he so different from the others of his kin? For one, his body has developed three lungs instead of the standard two, plus unique vocal chords that allows him to copy any voice and sound from any creature he's encountered. He uses this skill to chase away larger creatures or to attract their attention, in rare cases. There is not a voice that Madár cannot mimic. Beside that and his difference in color, his behavior seems to be completely nothing related to the Ihneumon in any way. They always live in packs, while Madár desperately wanted tranquility and wished to be left alone at all times. He also desired to scout the lands, even those of the feared ignorant Humans. With that, he was banned from his pack in fear that he would bring them into danger, not that took much offense to it.
As can be probably seen in the picture himself, Madár is REALLY tall and reaches something around the 2 - 2.10 meters, which is tall even for an Ihneumon Alpha.
His age however, is unknown. He's been around long enough to have people spread tales about encounters with him and eventually he ended up known as a myth in the Human city of Roodcliff. Where he often stars in stories and fairytales for children. Yet his appearance doesn't display longivity.
Beside his title of Copper Ihneumon, he is also known to be the bringer of the season Autumn because every person who ever caught a glimpse of him have done so during the nights of Autumn.
Whenever Madár appears, every area surounding him changes in a brilliance of orange, red, brown and yellow. This led people to believe that the Copper Ihneumon has been assigned to be the keeper of Autumn's hidden natural miracles and to represent the season by nature itself.
Tales speak of the forests admiring Madár as he came to them to grant them their rest to recover from the past months. To care after their beautiful leaf children as they drop in exhaustion and to bring them back together with Spring, when they are completely refreshed and full of health. Most woodland creatures gather by the shrine on the day Autumn arrives to catch a glimp of the Copper Ihneumon and bathe in his brilliance as Autumn announces himself once again.
However, there are always people that think everything is rubbish and just go with the theory that Madár is a silly color messup within the Ihneumon race and always appears in the forest near Roodcliff because he's waiting to meet someone during that time..."
In case anyone is wondering, he is in a story I'm currently working on. I havent submitted it anywhere yet due its rather mature content. Perhaps do it over here, perhaps, if I feel it's good enough -shrug-
I'd love to know what you think <3
