User blog:ScottyBlue/Artist Info (Character visual descriptions)

Welcome
Below is a list of characters from my fanfic Gingiverian: A Tale of Redwall. These are their Physical descriptions, for the sake of those who wish to draw them. These descriptions are not all given in the story; this is just how I see the characters. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, NONE OF THE CHARACTERS HAVE EXTRA HAIR ON THEIR HEADS!

Major characters are in italics, minors are not

I will update this as I add more characters to the story.

Little Flower Characters
Most of the characters from my story Little Flower are in Gingiverian as well so I won't need to describe them twice. However, there are a handful of characters exclusive to this story, which will be detailed here, in no particular order. I will update this as more characters are added to the story.


 * Vaccar (Child) - A young, just-out-of Dibbun-age weasel. Is a mite tall and gangly for his age;  forepaws, tail, and footpaws are proportionally large, giving him a bit of an awkward appearance. Has positively beautiful tan fur, white on the chest and paws. Tailtip and nose are black; eyes are large, soft, and brown. Wears a sleeveless tabard made of some unidentified black pelt, belted with a fishskin. Has small red stylized sunburst tattoos on the back of his paws. Usually has a bewildered, sad expression to his countenance, even when smiling, which he does not often do.


 * Zina (Child) - A pretty, somewhat chubby weasel Dibbun, scarce three seasons old. Fur is extremely fuzzy, and is pale gold, with a white chest and tail. There is also a white "star" on her muzzle, just above the point that would be directly between her eyes, which are golden brown and very large. Nose and pawpads are pink - tailtip is black. Wears a rather wrinkly, awkwardly slapped-together dress tailored from an old grey cloak and some long prairie grass stalks - this tends to come apart frequently and flop about comically. Also wears a necklace of broken scallop shell peices, with a large spiral hermit crab shell as pendant, that Vaccar gave her.


 * Zina (Adult) - Rather handsome young-adult weaselmaiden. Fur pattern and color has not changed, though her eyes have paled to a brighter golden color. Wears a woven green tunic with a broad black belt, almost completely enveloped by a huge black cloak trimmed in black-and-white magpie feathers around the hem and hood; the hood is almost always worn up, and has earholes. Also wears two positively enourmous gold hoop earings (one in each ear), several bead -and-feather bracelets and anklets, and the necklace Vaccar gave her. Weilds a walkingstaff-cum-sharpened stick spear, carved with little sunburst patterns all about it.
