Poll: New Avatars, What new species would you like to see? Options

[Psi]

Ther is a post in Discussion/Small Talk about what new avatars people would like to see in Furcadia.
This is a coallation of the posts up to now (June7th 18:60)

Caradoc:Personally, I'd like to see a free bird avatar in existence.  The eagle/gryffe combo is fantastic, but an eagle is only 1 bird.  There are many others.

Scar Dalen:armadillos

Tybalt:Centipedes

Morpius:Customised avatars for dreams that don't require removing another

FurryMonaLisa:Walking furre dice

Apple~Kitty:A snake would be funny or a bat

Wolf Redstar:I wouldn't mind seeing a Wallaby avatar; they're just so cute!

The Goddess Nemesis:Wallabies are sorta cute. Koalas are too though

Snap Snap:I'd like to see a fish avatar

Drake Blackpaw:A Skunk! Says the cat / skunk half-breed Drake.Though a martial arts Kangaroo would be pretty cool.

BlazingFires:What about another type of feral. So far, we've basically only have one.. the Eagle.

Luigi\'s Pizzeria:How about three-toed sloths?

Cosmos:MONKEYS, monkeys, and MORE monkeys.

ForestStryfe:Llamas

Snap Snap:Bird people that turn into tiny fish that flop around.OR. Fish people that turn into tiny fish that flop around.I think the second makes more sense. But fun. Fun.Yeah know. I've recently wanted to play a lobster...

Epona,the wild horse:Cows.  Enough said

Kashira:Wild Pigs! And I think I have a thread unto itself about that. No, not those fat pink barnyard pigs, more like wild boars.

Mechan Stargazer: I think fish people should be able to blow huge bubbles and ride around in them.

duran the wanderer:lizards, alltho i support the idea for being able to put in more avatars in a dream without having to trow out an existing one... maybe stack that with optional female avatars (mostly useless given the rez but maybe one wants to make a fantasy dream where the female avatar wear a dress?)

Dashbar: say we get a snake patch.     Maybe furres with hats on, or maybe even Unicorns.

Scar Dalen:Anthro squids

DMG:Gargoyles! I have a gargoyle char, and had to use a cat, but I kind of wanted to get a dragon for her but by the time I got one I had stopped playing her. Dragon wings look good as gargoyle wings, but the bodies are just all wrong. Could also be counted as a demon, depending on which you wanted to be, since gargoyles and demons(depending on the kind) look sort of the same.

Wtcher:Birdies! *wiggles cutely*Ones who can sit on people's heads!

Makdaam:A bear would be a nice add... but i think that adding different avatars for females and males would be even better...

Miriel:It seems (unless I've missed something) that the only two 'groups' of animals furcadia doesn't have are fish and insects. Alright, we do have butterfly wings...but...spider anthro? XD there's no way you can be a believable spider on furc without people questioning you ("NO u cant b a spider ur a FELINE! POSER!"), or a fish (although there are fish patches for dreams to alter felines and canines, I use them myself in my dream. FINS! )...fins could be a digo item...and bat wings
last suggestion, make the musties squirrels. That tail is unique in the animal kingdom

Daiktana:Daiktana mutters to himself thinking, "Miriel HAD to leave out bears, snakes, skunks, aliens, Clurcadia clones, bouncing happy faces, kiwis.....Why am I standing here about to be crushed by the angry mob?"

Psi : Meerkats, Ferrets, Manticores, Minotaurs, Chimera, Donkeys, Owls, Pigs, Cows, Gorillas, Hedgehogs, Echidnas, Bats, Buffalo, Swans, Deer, Goats

Miyamoto K. Seeth: Demon/dragon wings!

Psi : male female, striped spotted, tall short, long / short tails, manes mohawks

Ila : I would like to see bears, bats, or owls as a new avatar; otherwise, a female variation would be nice.

Niana : Pigs would be cute, or monkeys! I've heard alot of complaints about the Dragon being the only reptile avatar though... so maybe an Iguana type creature o.o;; or if you wanted to go aquatic.. >>> Don't forget about crabs!  They have feeling too ya know    (Wouldn't it be cool to just crawl into a shell and pinch furries when they annoyed you?)

Scar Dalen : Xenomorphs and face-huggers. Maybe queens as a digo item

That sums up most of it

[FurryMonaLisa]

Most of them are kind of..ridiculous, and wouldn't really fit in furcadia..

EXCEPT THE FURRE DICE. WE NEED THOSE!

[MeeZly]

I must point out Miriels post. Bat wings = Already a digo. Squirrels = Already a species. [I am a mathaholic >.<]

Was this poll started before the update. Or does she just pretend to play Furcadia and really not know anything. Well anyways, I think a fish is a rather stupid idea. A walking fish is like.... Too monstrous and out of proportion. I may have to make a dream banning fish and never leave it if that comes about. I personally would not mind seeing something more original then everything we have now. Rodents, Musties, Lapines, and Squirrels....... That is enough of basically the same animal. Might I add the squirrel looks like a cat with a mustie head and a tail.

SO in conclusion to this super long post. I wanna see something like a centaur. Even if it is only as a digo. It would be so much more original then everything else.

[Xanon]

As far as I know Talz already has a set list of what she's adding.. I'm sure she's heard suggestions ten times over and already has a long term list planned.. Granted, I could be wrong.. but that has been discussed before. o-o

[MeeZly]

Xanon do you even remember me? We used to be like super duper good friends.

[MeeZly]

Oh. Might I add that I strongily believe that before any new avatars are made there should be female avatars made of each already existing species. Maybe even adding a bit of masculinity to existing ones.

[Pferddie]

'Taurs of every race.   Digo only.

Leotaurs for the cats, centaurs for the horse, canitaurs for the dog, you get the idea.

Some people really have no lives!

[MeeZly]

[QUOTE] Ummm...... I think it has been editted a bit then.

[Kalio]

I think Furcadia needs a free avian character.

[Chica]

I say a Bear. Rawr. <3

[Indigo Nightfall]

I still want chameleos! x) with swirly tail and SS colorchanging ability!

[simseth2004]

I would really like to see Gorillas or monkeys of some sort. Those are very popular creatures and would go well with Furcadia.

[Southside Coleman]

I can't think of many in-demand animals that don't look similar to the ones we already have, given a bit of imagination.

[Cartwheel]

Ursines (bears) are going to be present in the new update, or so I have heard... same with bovines (cows).

I really want the bear, but... primates of some sort (apes or monkeys) would be awesome.

[Millipede]

I'd really like an insect avatar, but that's just me.  I can't really say I care for the addition of bovines or ursines. ._.;  I'm not a fan of "fat" animals.  I could so use an insect av though...

[Cartwheel]

-cough-

You know... if the Furcadia team were to add, say, an avian or reptillian avatar or an insect avatar, it would completely ruin the whole idea of Furcadia.

Furcadia was made to be an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) in which -furry- creatures, or mammals (-most- mammals), learn to assume human abilities such as walking on their hind legs, wearing clothes, talking and all the like.

The keywords here are 'furry' and 'mammal'.  Avians have feathers, not fur... and insects have neither -- in fact, they are bald, or so in my experiences.  Reptillians are bald, as well.

Yes, gryffes/eagles and dragons already offend the idea of these furry anthromorphic creatures, but you have to pay for them, so the world will not be overrun by them.  It would mess up Furcadia if they added avians, insects or reptillians as free avatars.

[Setesh]

Personally i think Furc would benefit most from a reptillian avatar. Something that isn't a dragon, like a simple lizard, monitor or alligator.

[Cartwheel]

I assure you, the addition of reptillians, insects or avians would destroy the idea of Furcadia altogether.

If you want a reptillian avatar, go make one or pay someone to do it -- then make a really cool dream with those avatars in it, and most likely everyone who cares enough will hang out there.

Ask anyone who has read the entire Furcadia site and almost everything on the forums, and I bet they will just tell you the same thing.

Heck, I reckon even Felorin or Talzhemir would tell you that.

Furcadia -- Furcadia!!!  If it were meant for reptillians or avians, it would be called 'Feathercadia' or 'Scalecadia' or something stupid-sounding like that.  But frankly, it is Furcadia, and as the name would suggest, it is for furry anthromorphic creatures.
