Description

One that's needed a reference redo for far too long...
My main character/fursona/mascot

Name: Kaseiko

Gender: Female

Species: N/A

Diet: Varied, willing to try most things once

Personality: Laid back, can be lazy at times, passive, shy

About: Can draw using opposable thumbs. Wrists on fire, but the fire does not burn anything around it. Has traits from cats (big and small), vultures (particularly the griffon vulture), monkey, and bull. Has social anxiety and typically avoids interactions when possible, preferring to spend time alone in a peaceful setting. Favorite areas include forests, places with water features (like waterfalls), the beach (in a private spot), etc. Tends to try to avoid places that are too hot or too cold. Likes animals and nature, bones, sleeping, and sometimes doing art. Often sits hunched over, with neck in a position similar to a vulture.

Physical features: Retractable Wings (wings look like a griffon vultures). Three emeralds imbedded to the inner wing near the end of the bone at the end (on both wings). Face is like a big cats, with bigger eyes, similar to a smaller cat. Taurus symbol in the middle of forehead. Has cat whiskers and teeth. Eyes are hazel. Eyes react to light, and are more slitted when in high-light conditions, or she is feeling uneasy/threatened; and pupils can be large in low light conditions like at night. Ears are very flexible and can go above or behind horns. Sometimes ears will look more like long wolf ears, and sometimes they can resemble an ungulates, going out to the sides. Horns are like a bull's, and are shaped similar to the symbol taurus, curving inwards towards each other. Long, very fluffy neck, with a large tuft of fur on shoulder, resembling a griffon vulture or border collie. Shorter legs, with normal cat paws on the back, and more hand/monkey-like paws on the front, with opposable thumbs, and are plantigrade. Flames on wrists can sometimes burn her, but do not affect surrounding areas other than light sometimes. All claws are retractable. Belly is slightly chubby, with cat-like "primordial pouch". Because of this, she can be quite squishy. Body is otherwise flexible like a cats. Top of back is darker brown, with double-diamond-like markings with a dot in the center when viewed from above (doesnt have to be exact). Tail is long, monkey-like, and typically curls at the end. The tail fur is very dense, and tail is prehensile. Tail fur at the very end where it curls is slightly iridescent in light, with a green tint. Tail markings are on both sides, and in the shape of the constellation taurus.

Thank you so much!
... Omg I did not even notice I skipped over a word there, even after proof-reading a few times haha, I'm sorry about that! The very back teeth are like humans, so basically they're just flatter, and indent in the center a bit... Good for chewing veggies and such. xD I'll have to add that in the description. Thanks for letting me know about that mistake as well! <3

THEY HAVE THE WORST TIMING D: why couldn't they vacation when I have the energy to get up and get things myself? noooo, they have to pick when i'm worn out from stupid summer college classes to move :c

Normally my cat is so graceful and careful that she doesn't knock over a single thing... that's how you can tell when she's purposefully trying to annoy me D:< she knocks stuff over

i'm not doing it because i want to. i was nagged. i hate nagging.

Kasaurus In reply to CrossHound213 [2011-07-16 04:37:36 +0000 UTC]

Ffff my cat has HORRIBLE balance, I don't even think she's a cat sometimes, so freaking clumsy o-o;

:C I'm glad at least my parents aren't being naggy about it, but it's not like I'm doing nothing, since they work I help out around the house, do art for money and lend them money when they need it, and thinking of getting a job sometime, so yeah xD
My nosey control freak aunt will probably be all naggy though if I say I'm not going right now and don't have a job. I hate people with too high of expectations when you just want to relax a little, you know? >_>; Senior year killed my brain.

My cat is a very proper cat <3 i'm pretty sure she has some Egyptian Mau in her <3333 she's so exotic and stuff

Well, it's not my parents :/ it's my best friend.... she's going to college to take summer classes, and she's super shy and quiet, won't ask questions of the professor.... so i have to tag along to ask questions about assignments and make friends for her XD i'm the person who always has to ask the Mcdonald's worker, "WHAT POKEMANZ TOYZ U GOTS TODAY?" lol, true story. I once had to go to three different mcdonald's and ask them that, but none of them had the one we wanted. so we went to taco bell.

but yeah, senior year. STRESSSSS. they told me i was valedictorian the day BEFORE we graduated

Kasaurus In reply to CrossHound213 [2011-07-16 04:55:13 +0000 UTC]

xD Mine's just a domestic housecat, no real breed to her, but she is a pretty calico. c:

LOL that's amazing xD I would be the quiet one taking the back seat all like 'yeah, you just do your thing' At least through dA I've been able to open up a bit more and talk more like a normal person >.>; I still get nervous a lot though OTL

Oh wow, valedictorian, huh? That's pretty amazing C: Our valedictorian was a freaking genius, the only other person who could compare to him and probably would have gotten valedictorian if he wasn't so lazy was another guy that just skipped school a lot/came in late every single day, but somehow aced all the classes anyways. OTL I don't know how they do these things fff. ARE YOU A SUPER GENIUS TOO? OUO
I was in the 3rd row for graduation with a GPA of 4.0 or something lol, our class had some of the smartest people I've ever met in my life, there's no way I could have kept up with some of them. @~@ But I was out sick a lot that year and it dragged me down too cuz I didn't understand half of what was going on in the AP classes, theymovesofreakingfast, I think they scared me away from wanting to try college, and we have no savings for it either and I don't want to be in debt ;_; I think I developed some kind of anxiety disorder from all that stress because ever since then, I can't get this nervous feeling to go away. Dx

CrossHound213 In reply to Kasaurus [2011-07-16 05:11:23 +0000 UTC]

Just a regular gray tabby for me <3 but she's so cute~ and surprisingly clean and polite XD she won't ever hurt you on purpose. She just gets a little hyper sometimes XD

That's how my friend is XD she whispers the answers to me so i can yell them at our teacher X3 they think i'm smart, now, lol. I'm nervous, but i do it anyway because nothing will ever get done if i don't :3 i'm one of them people that just like to get it over with quickly, though i do like talking to people~ i'm a people person, i suppose. i get it from my grandpo--he knows everyone

psh, not as amazing when you realize that i was one of six graduating seniors XD and all the others were slackers. They all got Bs and Cs, while i got As. There wasn't any competition and i'm smart, but not a genius XD i'm very smart with animal facts, and some other random things, but i'm not a math person. And i don't really care about my grades--i just do my best, and the rest of the world can deal with it XD i don't even know my GPA... i could probably find out, but i really don't give a crap XD

i was out sick a lot too--i have bad migraines that go on for days without letting up, and no medicine except for hardcore painpills work anymore :c i had to take one of my "happy pills" for my own dang graduation, cuz i had a migraine XD i get so loopy on those things~ there's a very amusing pic of me somewhere on facebook of the after graduation part--my eyes are looking in two different directions, and i look high DX i didn't post it... but whatever :3 people are amused by me when i'm on my happy pills XD

xD My cat likes to knead me, but her claws are so sharp one time she about tore up my arm >_>

I used to be the one telling people answered... freshman year, I kinda stopped talking to many people other than that except for just casual talk with people, and my only real close friends in school were ~nasharios and ~LeiTung (~LeiTung was actually the one who caused me to get a dA <3)

Only...6? |D We had like 40 or 50 or more, but it was a pretty big school too, is your school not very big, or is mostly everyone just super lazy or dumb as bricks? >.>;;
I just kinda kept to my own and did what I could, mostly everyone else was probably working together to get the answers for stuff, but senior year I just felt like a major outcast from missing so much. Dx
And same xD I can say all kinds of animal stuff since that's what I find more interesting (except all the cell talk, that's just insane x.x Failed AP Bio because it was nothing but cells it seemed...) and I despise math, anything over basic stuff I couldn't care less about.
I wouldn't know my GPA if it wasn't shoved in my face so much. xD It was mainly from all the AP classes too I think, even though I only passed 3/5. I was surprised it stayed so high actually. o-o;

Mine was mostly asthma and stress related. I'd get so stressed out that my stomach would just cramp up and I just wanted to sleep. For my graduation I was super nervous, so my mom gave me one of her nerve pills to help calm me down LOL
They got a crappy pic of me too before graduation where I think I look high I think the sun was in my eyes and I was getting annoyed at having to wait outside and everyone was in a crowd and then they're trying to take pictures and I don't like my picture taken cuzimugly and stuff, so yeah. :'D Twas a weird day indeed.

CrossHound213 In reply to Kasaurus [2011-07-16 05:56:04 +0000 UTC]

my cat just howls a lot XD and rubs up against me~ she's so needy

I used to be a super genius, but meh... i mellowed out over the years XD lol, used to, if anybody got a higher grade than me, i threw a fit XD i was such a brat, and i was mean to everyone... now i'm much more easygoing <3 and hopefully nicer :3

it was ~Random-Kitty15 who forced me to get a facebook, deviantart, neoseeker, myYearbook... you name it, i probably have one :/ and it's all her fault. She can talk me into anything DX

it was a verrrrrry small school <3 but it was like a family--everybody loved everybody, even if we fought sometimes. I went to that school for 13 years <3 i will always love everybody i met there, and cherish those memories. Not like in public school (i went to a private school), where you're just one face in thousands :c that seems sad and lonely to me.

I do have one heart/chest problem--chaustacondritis, or something like that... it made me unable to play any sport besides volleyball :/ and even that was hard. I would've never made it onto a team where you had to try out--i have two bum ankles, a heart problem, and i pass out when i get too hot.

lol, i found that pic on facebook XD i realized that i also had a double chin in it XD ...sigh....

Kasaurus In reply to CrossHound213 [2011-07-16 06:10:24 +0000 UTC]

xD

lol, kinda the same there, I feel like I used to be smarter, and I actually was an over-achiever once upon a time in school before I took 5 AP classes and made me despise school other than art class. I was probably a brat once too, I really don't remember haha, I know in elementary school, I used to always get in trouble and yelled at for talking, and then I think that made me shut down later on and hold in lots of thoughts and hardly talk at all. o-o I can only talk forever with good friends, family, and by typing anymore it seems xD

Nice cx I got a facebook due to family, but I hardly go on there, and srsly, when I make a post, 99.9% of the time, it's just posting art

Aww <: At our schools, there was always cliques and stuff, I seemed to hang out with just whoever tolerated me, or the oddballs like me, never really felt like a family in school o-o;

I have asthma, so I can relate to the chest/lung problems, I don't know about my heart though, but I can't really do lots of exercise without rest or my head starts spinning it feels like Dx

Baww, mine has a double chin too, I feel your pain, bro 👍: 0 ⏩: 1

I blame the marker and paint fumes XD there goes my brain cells~ i can talk with anybody--have been able to since i was little XD my mom would lose me in the mall, only to find me telling one of the mall employees about my cat, or what i had for breakfast that day XD them employees loved me ;3 i was a little chatterbox

i only get on when i have nothing better to do, or to talk to someone that i don't have a cell phone # for.... and to stalk hot guys named nathan >>

I still have no idea how i managed to make team captain my last year XD i'm so out of shape now, though :c

psh, mine's all over the internet XD but i don't care.... it's not like anyone cares what i look like :3 and i can definitely explain that i was on drugs at the time the picture was taken. I was not responsible for my creepy eyes and goofy smile complete with double chin XD

x3 I blame... school overdrive, idk.
LOL, if I got lost I'd be on the verge of crying not knowing what to do and wandering aimlessly... true story at Epcot once, the day was all good until I got separated from my friend and her dad (who's a friend of the family) that took me with them, omg I was so freaking scared xD I still hate being completely alone somewhere.



I'm. Really out of shape too |D It's like sometimes I want to change that, but then later I'm just like eh, screw it -_-'

I don't like pics of me floating around the internet (hope there aren't any D: ) idk why, I just... don't like seeing pics of myself, it's all I could do to post that self portrait I made, which isn't 100% accurate due to me being not so great with faces and all. I just liked how the dogs came out to be honest OTL

Lets have a high-five for curly-tailed fursonas. x3 And blue markings, I can't tell if the one on your fursona glow or not(it kind of looks like it, but that might just be the normal contrast between light blue and dark colors).

Anyways, looks pretty cool! I like the colors you've used, the meld very well together, and the fire-wrists are an interesting touch. Though one has to wonder, what if she's drawing, sneezes, and suddenly her wrists burst into flame?

Kasaurus In reply to Lochingbird [2011-07-15 18:49:14 +0000 UTC]

Yay C:
They don't really glow I don't think, but, if someone wants to make them glow, I have nothing against it. xD I like glowy things C:

Thanks ^^ The fire is a symbol for my carpal tunnel, so I'd assume they wouldn't burst into flame upon just sneezing, but they'd have to be hurting, but for the sake of the art, the flames won't burn anything around it.
