I would like more detailed information on the morphology of the creatures native to Zalanthas, so I might possibly draw them for submissoin to the staff for use.
how about Mythology in general.... I see little mythology anywhere on the website.... maybe that should be added to give new a player's character some beliefs to make them seem more real and rounded off....
just a thought... maybe im missing somthing.
ohh wait... never mind.... mythology... and morphology....easy to confuse for the skimer.
Personally I'd love to see an area of the site with some player made sketches put up. However there'd have to be a warning about them bieng mere sketches and not staff condoned drawings because half the fun for me is inventing how zalanthas things look in my mind. Even so its good to know how others view the same animals and gives thoses with less imagination something to go on.

There's the
Origianl Submissions artwork. Is that what you mean?
Yes that place is just what we need, but there are no drawings of Zal. animals there.
Sanvean had some critters on her page, but that page seems to have disappeared...
Y'mean this one? http://www.armageddon.org/~sanvean/sanvean.html
And the critter sketches are here: http://www.armageddon.org/~sanvean/critters.html
Hrm, I was just checking out those sketches. That greth reminds me a lot of that old NES game, Kid Icarus :D

Of course, each creature will look different in the mind's eye of each individual. That is why I'm asking for input from you guys. It will give me a good idea of what most people see, and, though I can't please everyone, I can hit on the perceptions of the majority.
I was bored some time ago and sketched this up.
Goudra: Long and slender mammals, the sleek goudra feed mostly on the larger Zalanthan insects, but have been known to scavenge meat and fruits. Physically somewhat fragile, despite being about the length of a human, they rely on stealth and natural camoflauge both to hunt and to avoid predators. Their fur is very fine, and their hides tend to be quite supple, making these common northlands creatures one of the more prized among hunters.

That looks kind of like a otter.
Now see, I was thinking SandFerret.
THAT TOO!
Creeper

Yeah, I suppose it does. Just my interpretation of it, anyway. Was the impression I got looking at one in-game.
From the description Id picture a more panther-like ferret.
I'd picture the body being about three times as long, but the rest of that picture is almost exactly what I had in mind.
