I commissioned a (preg) picture of this dude (which you can see here: CM Avalan's Warm Litter) so it's about time I actually uploaded his ref.
His name is Avalan, he lives in arctic places and no I have no idea what he is. He's a long-eared bear-goat-wolf. There we go. He's often alone and appears like a gentle giant but it's not hard to tell he could probably knock someone out easily with arms like that. He's calm usually and doesn't often speak with more words than he deems necessary, but not dumb he can be a bit prickly to newcomers but mostly he's just largely unused to company.
Hm there might be more I can think of but that's it right now. Big, quiet, Arctic dude who could tear someone limb from limb if he was in a foul mood haha. Who cares he's big and fluffy and yes heh The dark blue down his back just goes as a single stripe too.
