One comment - Isn't Thomas a black stallion? Or is he a brown stallion with black mane? Also remember Phil has paws and not really hands.
The rest sounds good to me! Chris The Lurking Fox -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of C.

Thank you, Misha. As promised, here is a little more detail for each character for the scene (what I hope to send to Ermine). Let me know what you think. Brief, from left to right: Andwyn the bat, Copernicus the lizard, George the jackal, Malisa the human, Thomas the horse, Alberta the donkey, Thalberg the Alligator, and Phil the Rabbit: Detailed Character Descriptions: Name: Andwyn Species: Fruit Bat Description: Andwyn stands roughly four feet tall and has soft brown fur (somewhat lighter around his shoulders and chest, darker on his head, back, and legs) and dark brown eyes. His wings stretch three feet on either side, and from his shoulders down to his ankles. The middle joint sports a quasi-hand with opposable thumb and two fingers, enough to manipulate light-weight objects. He cannot wear conventional clothes because of his wings, but he does wear a long open-sleeved vest and sash that keeps him modest. He prefers colors that blend well with his fur (usually another shade of brown or perhaps dark green). Action: Spreading out a rolled-up parchment map on the table. http://www.batworlds.com/wp-content/uploads/fruit_bat_picture_624.jpg Name: Copernicus Species: Giant Lizard Description: Copernicus's stands nearly six feet tall, weighs 300 pounds, and resembles a dirty-yellow-scaled igauana. He has bright green eyes, dresses respectably for his position (attache to the Duke and sometime patrol commander) but not ostentatiously. Neutral colors but of good, heavy cloth. He has long flexible fingers, a smooth back, and only a small throat frill. Action: Gesturing at the map with his right hand while talking to the jackal at his left. Name: George the Patrolmaster Species: Jackal Description: A black-backed jackal standing just over five feet, he has dusty tan fur except along his back where the fur turns black down the middle. A grizzled veteran, he has a hard look to his dark eyes, but one which can also be filled with good humor. He possesses an aura of confidence and command. He wears leather armor beneath his tunic and breeches (generally blue in color), and always has at least one weapon at his hip which is usually a curved blade. Action: Holding a goblet of wine in his left hand while listening to the lizard at his right, eyes focused on the map. Name: Malisa Species: Human Description: A little over five feet in heigth, Malisa is a well trimmed woman who dresses in men's clothing, often of martial character. She bears a horse-head medallion marking her as the Prime Minister for Metamor. She prefers not to let her brown hair get too long. She will be armed with a slender blade. Action: Malisa is leaning over the table between the jackal at her right and the horse seated at her left. She is addressing the horse with her right hand outstretched over the table as if gesturing to something there. Name: Duke Thomas Hassan V Species: Horse Description: Almost six feet in height, he is a sable brown stallion with regal bearing and in the prime of his life. His mane is black and always neatly arranged. He dresses befitting his station, favoring blues and greens. The heraldry of an issuant horse is often on his breast. All of his clothing has gold trim in it. Action: Thomas is sitting in an ornate chair with high back that is well-padded for comfort; not as ostentatious as a throne, but very refined and better than any other chair around save for his wife's. He rests his hands on the table, while listening to his Prime Minister. One hand is resting atop his wife's hand. http://metamorkeep.com/gallery/pics/mkduke.jpg Name: Duchess Alberta Hassan Species: Assingh (Donkey) Description: Nearly as large as her husband Thomas, she bears a gray hide, long ears, and a stocky appearance softened by a feminine physique. She is garbed regally but not ostentatiously, favoring similar colors to her husband. She does do her best to appear beautiful for her husband. Action: Sitting in a similarly ornate chair next to her husband, one ear turned toward him, though her head and left ear are turned toward the Steward at her side. One arm is on the table, her hand clasped by her husband. Name: Steward Thalberg Species: Alligator Description: Standing over six feet tall, Thalberg has yellow eyes, green scales atop his head and back, and yellow under his chin and on his chest and belly. Not that his chest or belly are ever visible through his heavy red robes. A horse-head medallion marking him as Steward of the House Hassan is about his neck and clasps the front of the robe. Though the cloth is chosen more for warmth than appearance, it is still a rich hue. He is completely faithful to the House Hassan and keeps a tight reserve over his demeanor. Action: Thalberg is telling Alberta some details about the state of the house while pouring a goblet of wine from a ewer he carries in one hand. Name: Prince Phillip hin'Tenomides Species: White Rabbit (Nearly Feral) Description: Only a few feet in height and nearly feral in shape, Phil is Prince of a foreign land allied with Metamor. He is dressed somewhat awkwardly in blue rather martial doublet. His hands are paws bereft of manual dexterity. Basically he looks like a giant rabbit. Action: Sitting in a cushioned chair at the far end of the table, his paws holding out a parchment he is reviewing, ears turned to listen to all of the conversations. ----- May He bless you and keep you in His grace and love, Charles Matthias At 01:07 PM 9/28/2014, christian okane wrote: >I'm sorry to hear about the rash she is having!
