metaphors need inspiration! - Carrie - Jan 30 2017
I've been thinking up this character for a few days now, after watching some old Star Treck, there is a race of alien that speaks only in metaphors and I thought that might be a cool idea for a gembound! I also know I want them to ether be female or asexual but feminine in nature; leaning to a mammal? She would speak more in riddles and abstract phrases. This is more of an exercise for myself since id have to think 'outside' the box whenever I'd play them. c:
Give me animal ideas!!!

Curious and confused, she would approached, hoping to maybe know whether this silhouette was friend or foe. "I call to the cat in the dark, but would a cat speak anything other then cat?" Would they even understand her? [insert name here] was aware of how others find her words strange; but maybe someone might understand a sign of pure curiosity.

OOOOO, I'll keep these in mine!
The Bilby is tempting, and the Nutria reminds me of a capybara rat. ;D

You should definitely do like a seal or walrus or sea lion or something. I haven't seen any of those yet...
