Fenrir is, to my knowledge portrayed only as a black wolf in Norse Mythology.

You can find pictures of Fenrir appearing as a white wolf, but that's in Final Fantasy. Furthermore, Lily's full shift is a large white Fox with nine tails (obviously), and I think having a bit of diversity would be a good thing. While they are fundamentally different, I still feel like they're a bit too similar.

How about a compromise instead? http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/115/d/7/fenrir_bound_by_poledrey-d4xiixa.jpg http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130127003258/finalfantasy/images/b/b5/Fenrir-FFVIIAC.jpg

I found these two pictures, both portraying him as having an icy grey fur. It isn't quite white, but it isn't black either. He /is/ a descendent of Frost Giants (Loki, his father, was the son of the Giants Fárbauti and Laufey) so an icy colour fits fairly well, I think. It's different enough that I'm okay with it, but still somewhat white/light in the colours like you want.

Pft we know how far your knowledge gets your Kapu :P

I'm not really seeing the problem that you are, other than the "normalness" of the wolf, because it doesn't have wings, or two heads, or breath fire.

But it still technically a mythical shapeshifter, which fits the guidelines. A "standard" wolf, isn't a mythical creature, even when it's a creature from myth? I think you're applying your wording wrong. Perhaps you want Fantasy Creatures? Not Mythical? Because Fenrir is a mythical creature, average, run of the mill wolf, who happens to be giant.

You do realize that "mythical" applies to "myth" which is a synonym of legend, folklore, and fairy tales. I could make a slenderman character, or Cthulhu.

I think what you're looking for is Paranormal Fantasy Shifts.

A Slenderman character? Appearing in the middle of a forest? That sounds like a bomb ready to explode. :p

While you may not have meant to, I would appreciate if you do not direct veiled insults at me, Aeon. That first line of yours was uncalled for, even if you meant it only as a joke.

Regardless, what I aim for is only to have people stay true to the mythic creature they use, so if there is a certain way that a creature is depicted, I would like if they stuck with that appearance, or at least didn't alter it very much. It's the reason why Lily's Fox Form is white with golden eyes, instead of just a normal fox-ish orange. While there may be no actual source that I can find that speaks of Fenrir's coat colour, he is depicted as black, grey, brown, or a grey coming close to what you'd call off-white.

Regardless, I only ever suggested a different reference picture because I thought it would fit better. As with any suggestions, if she's adamant on keeping her character's wolf shape white, she's welcome to reject/say no to the request/suggestion. I never said she had to make it a different colour, and I'm not going to reject her character over it. Just giving her suggestions for something that might fit a bit better with Fenrir.

Also, guys, it's almost a week since the last post. I know many of you are probably busy, but I would like if it was possible to post at least once every week so that we don't keep people waiting for too long.

Sorry for being a bit impatient, but I'm just really looking forward see what each of you will do, as well as see the RP move further along ^^

Also:
Is it just me, or does this look like a horse?


Kinda makes me think of Sleipnir o_O

I was only teasing, no need to get upset. It sounded to me as if you didn't want a normal embodied wolf character, my aplogies, i misinterpreted.

As for posting if i have time tomorrow. I already made arangements to advance deadland (3 weeks since my last post, ugh, no more waiting). If not i should be able to the day after.

I'll try to get something written either today or tomorrow, but I've got a pretty large workload to get through, it depends on just how fast I can do it.

No harm done. Just wanted to point it out.

As for the whole Wolf Thing... Well, I explained it in my earlier comments. It'a suggestion or request, nor a demand.

Glad to hear it :) But don't rush through your other work if it'll end up hurting the quality of it. I'd rather wait and not have your IRL stuff suffer.

Guys. While I'm okay with waiting for replies, I would also appreciate if people would be a little more active. I'm not asking a post a day, or even every second or third day. If we could at least have a little more activity here in the OOC? A little more updates just so we can get an idea of how it's going on the personal front rather than sit here blind. Right now I feel that it's a lot of "I'll post tomorrow" and then nothing :/

I apologise if I sound impatient (which I probably do), but I'd just like to know if people are actually interested in this and won't just silently disappear ><

That's also okay ^^ It's mainly the ones who haven't said much like Frenetic that I'm a little uncertain about.

Hey, sorry about that. The work I've had to do has been the kind that my brain can barely compute. Assuming I can get it all done prior to the next assignment I'll try and post something.

Again really sorry I keep saying I will and then not doing so.

Don't be confused! It's just an example of the Aeonus Weirdotus making its presence known to other members of its species in the vicinity.
