Furry Persona
My current furry persona is an owl-gryphon. Here's a description I use on the MUCK's:
Toranin is an owl-gryphon. A snowy white owl's head and wings rest atop his lithe black feline torso. His overall body-shape is feline, with four furred paws and a long, prehensile black tail. Feathers extend only partway down his chest, ending abruptly in a V-shaped ruff. The wings resting on his back and sides are pure white. When they're extended, more fur is revealed beneath: feathers cover only his wing-base and upper spine, forming a second, sharper V pointing back towards his tail. Standing on all fours, Toranin is roughly three feet tall at the shoulder, and nearly nine feet long from head to tail. His large, round eyes are a piercing blue, capable of sensing tiny details even in the dark and at a distance. When he first enters a room, his gaze will dart about, taking in everything, before coming to a rest as his mind returns to its customary abstract meanderings. Capable of moving quickly and silently in the air and on land, Toranin is noticed only when he chooses. His movements are quick, graceful and minimal, wasting neither effort nor time. On 2006-08-16, I edited the description for clarity and detail. Here's the previous version:
Toranin is an owl-gryphon. A pure white owl's head and wings rest atop Toranin's lithe black feline torso. The transition from the white feathers covering his head and chest to the deep black fur covering his body is strikingly abrupt. Standing on all fours, Toranin is roughly three feet tall at the shoulder, and nearly nine feet long from head to tail. His large, round eyes are a piercing blue, capable of sensing tiny details even in the dark and at a distance.
