So, I'd been planning an interactive thing for a while now, you've possibly noticed me talking about it, but the long and short of it today is that I'm not up to the task of what I wanted to do there. There were too many factors that left me stuck on what to do and how to fill in gaps. So now that enough time has gone by and enough disappointments dropped in my lap, I think I just want to post this work that I did and start thinking about the next ordeal. I'm going to need something more structured and less on the fly. Possibly a story I can roll from start to finish and stop trying to rely on "audience participation" to keep me motivated.
But anyways, the plan as it was for this particular image I pre-prepared, would have been to vote for what rodents to select for the first entries and therefore also the 'leadership' roles in a rodent gang that Terith would be leading. I've removed some extra text from the image that was meant to describe each characters specializations, so that you'd be picking for potential role filling and not just "ooh who's most popular" or "sexy" or "delicious"... The most selected would get the top spot as Terith's second in command, with the next three in line being the lieutenants of the gang. Whoever didn't make the initial cut would still be recruitable later through other activities, along with a handful of others not yet presented. (The idea being that new recruits would be discovered over time, based on the strength of the gang and their intelligence network.)
And if you're seeing your character here for the first time and am wondering why I never asked you about all this... well... the fact I'm cancelling it should probably be your answer... I didn't want to get into it too deeply and start talking to people about it until I was sure of what I was doing and... I just never got that far. This part got drawn anyways just as sort of a prepwork exercise as I was trying to sort out details and thought I'd have more put together by the time it was all done.... I did not. -.-;; Sooo... that's another blunder for me to sweep under the rug, but... hope these still look good at least? :p

While I remain uncertain if the project I'd originally envisioned related to this will ever come to pass, that doesn't mean I can't still use it as an excuse to draw more rodents. So... here's the first handful of those to come out of my recent fooling around. Plus one that I did long ago during the original set that was kept hidden away until now, as I really don't have an excuse to keep it to myself as some sort of secret anymore... namely, Muirne's "proposed alternate design" that I insisted on trying to put together.
