There aren't enough Satyrs around.

He is a horned Satyr and is broad of shoulder and strong of hoof. His height is fairly average, he seems to look almost unremarkable and nondescript until you notice the glean in his piercing hazel eyes, only accentuated by dark, menacing eyebrows. Appearing solemn, stern and unyielding at first glance, his face also appears to be a completely impassive mask. His mouth reveals nothing, merely a small hard line above a neatly trimmed beard. Two small tan coloured horns protrude from the top of his forehead amidst flowing black hair, liberally streaked with grey.


That's cause satyrs are like sirens only scary. I once saw a "ritual" that resulted in a satyr being summoned. I'm still scarred from that.

Twasn't yours I don't think... was that one that involved words like "phallus". Granted it was completely IC but it still managed to scar both myself and Ethaya.

No, I know it wasn't mine. It's scarred me, too. sad.gif


I could've sworn vi's descrip had "phallus" in it tongue.gif

Just a general note, but I'm not sure how people can tell exact height just by looking at people.

One part of my job is that I have to input people's heights for a test, I can have a general clue how tall they are but I never know exactly. If people are sitting, laying down then it throws off your entire perception of them.

So please, please, please don't say she is 5'7 3/4 inches tall. You can probably throw in the number of feet but adding the inches is just silly.

If he is 5' 11'' then say he is just under 6 feet tall.

If she is 5' 2'' then say she barely tops 5 feet.


...I never thought of that. Now I'll have to change mine.

I never really thought of it either until I had to put in height and weight all the time and when I always guessed I was generally wrong.

QUOTE (Nocroth's Description)
He is a winged Atavian and is of a peculiar state. He stands shorter than the average human man, built seemingly rather of thick wire than of true muscle: his form has a thinly-stretched, waifish look to it. Pallid skin, spiteful of the sun under which his kind so freely flies, has been drawn taut over this poorly-assembled frame, exposing the contour of bone and sinew. Slightly pointed and of a gentle curvature, his nose extends beak-like over lips dry and cracked, ever split by the merest of movements. Thread-thin scars mar his cheeks, crossed here and there in very deliberate patterns, and several patches of flesh at his throat have been burned into undeath. Hair unkempt and of a common, dirty brown adorns his head, and a small, badly-trimmed beard grows wiry at his chin. In stark contrast to his decrepit figure, his wings remain pristine, perfectly-preened, and of the cleanest white; and his gaze is full of a mad clarity, fierce and hungry, the terrible conviction burning therein paired with a demeanour of chillest calm.

Not particularly exciting.

He is a [whatever I am today] and is tall for his kind. His dark skin is offset by flashing blue eyes, which are narrow but gleam with menace. His movements are fast but graceful and his body lean. As you glance down, you notice that his right hand is missing the smallest finger.

Nondescript, forgettable; as every thief's description should be.

You're already looking at me, nub. It's a safe assumption that you're looking at all of me, otherwise we need a hard-coded command for LOOK AT <player's> HEAD.

You're looking down from where you were looking a moment ago (i.e. at my head).

A craftsman creates within the rules, an artist is bound only by the dictates of his own genius.

QUOTE (Viera's description)
She is a Mhun and is an average woman, boasting soft curves, large hands, and an earthy appearance. Chopped hair that falls just short of her shoulders seems easily kept out of the way, the ebony crop setting a dramatic contrast with her pallid skin. Her face is a pleasant round shape, but the unusual, slitted golden eyes beneath her brow seem out of place. A faded mark shaped like a pentagram is centred on her otherwise smooth forehead, the pale scar tissue distinct from the rest of her skin.

I reworked it recently, but some parts are still awkward to me.

The eyes are part of an important plot line for Viera that I'm still trying to figure out how to conclude, so no pls to be hating on them.
