Alright, here we go.
I'm feel that my main sona is kind of getting stale. His name is Nikolai (obviously), and he's a russian Czechoslovakian_wolfdog. He has green-tipped ears, tail, and a luminescent green penis.
I haven't RPed in a while, but I really want to. However, if I think my character is getting stale, I want to create a new sona. Hence, Roman the Rat.
I want to do a non-conventional species because everyone seems to be getting caught up in the "Canine Craze" as I like to call it. If you're not a wolf, you're a dog of some sort. If you're not a dog, you're either a Fox or a Hyena. *holds up large wall clock* It's time to stop.
His name would be Roman, and contrary to his name, he's actually Eastern American. He grew up in Casper WY, and his family wasn't really that well off. After 20 years and 7 apartments, he finally moved on his own and moved to Reno NV (I live here in real life, so I can make better sense of things).
He's a chubby Bulldog Rat (see https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulldog_rat) with a bit of a belly not on his back (unlike the original species), and likes to wear as simple clothing as possible (usually a t-shirt and a pair of basketball shorts).
Okay, so my two questions are, a) would this be a good character, and b) does anybody know a good artist who'd be willing to make a reference sheet of my character?
