Full DescriptionRaphael is a Skyvel, a species from a fairly chilly environment. Itâ₠http™s similar to a mammal. He resembles a mishmash of earthâ₠http™s carnivores and omnivores. He has a short muzzle and large eyes, similar to a cat. His eyes have 4 color receptor cells, and can see clearly in a large variety of lighting conditions. He has wide triangular ears, reminiscent of a red pandaâ₠http™s, and large digitigrade feetpaws, allowing him to walk on snow without sinking in. He has a large fluffy tail which he uses for balance, as his hips arenâ₠http™t quite as well adjusted for bipedal motion as a humanâ₠http™s. His tail, when fully fluffed up, is a bit larger than the rest of him. His hands have 4 fingers and an opposable thumb, all with sharp retractable claws. His feet have non-retractable claws.
His fur pattern changes from season to season. Some consistent features are small â₠http˜teardropâ₠http™ stripes running from his eyes down a short distance of his nose, a lighter colored belly and chin, and mottled fur in patches which ostensibly help with camouflage across his sides and back. During fall, heâ₠http™s a golden cream color. During winter, heâ₠http™s much lighter off-white with the patches fading. During spring, heâ₠http™s a richer golden color, and during summer, his fur is thinner and darker colored.
At 2 years of age, Raphael is very small, under 3 feet tall.
