New Creature: Centaurs

Postby Mojave » 03/18/2017 7:02 AM

Zap, I blame you.

So Zap and I were talking in the IRC the other day about centaurs and how we can't have them on Evelon bc they have human faces. Well, what if they had deer faces?

Another aspect that makes them different from humans is they lack nipples. All reproduction organs/mammary tissue is where it is on a deer, and their chest could sport a kind of ruff that they could cut/trim/style themselves. The sketch above is just how that one would wear it.

As for the antlers, I like branch antlers that actually change with the seasons (kinda like a Sawsbuck) but I'm not sure how that could be incorporated into a standard base.

Obviously I don't expect the sketch to be used, though the staff are welcome to take it if they want to use it.

Personally I FULLY support this, your concepts are wonderful and I love the idea of them having deer features in place of human ;v; <3

It's not my place to say if it would be viable for a pet, though, so I'll wait for a mod to swing by!



But there will come a time
You'll see, with no more tears
And love will not break your heart
But dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see
What you find there
With grace in your heart
And flowers in your hair



"Tomorrow will be a good day."

Aaaaahhhh, that is such a cute idea ;v; . I was a bit nervous because human-feature pets would be strange to me, but I think this is adorable and I super love it <3 . Deer/Elk are two of my favorite animals and hnng I could just see them being a really cute addition to the Evelon pets.

You know what would be even better?  A Centaurtaur.  

... But in all seriousness, a deer centaur creature is really cute and your sketches of it are adorable, I'd love one on my pet team :P

^ Personally I vote for the centaurtaur that's the best

Just kidding olol. I saw those sketches on your FB, Zein; so that's what they were for~

I think having them be that much more animal-looking would actually be great, and a twist on the centaur trope too. They're not my cup of tea necessarily, but it made me think that, since a lot of people have characters who ride horses... wouldn't it be a great story element to have the horse BE a character, besides an animal-horse. Honestly I wouldn't mind trying that myself olol.

Whether they end up deer-looking or half-horse half-[other animal], I like the concept. c:

What about having them be part-monkey?
Crossing my heart
Open wide
You're my crystal and clover
All of me

Swear to God

What would you do if I stole you tonight? (Ahh ahh)
Why waste time? (Ahh ahh)

I'm totally game for deer-centaurs, just saying.

I don't know if I would personally use one, but it's a neat concept.

Though, I don't think I'd be a fan of monkey-centaurs, as those would be on the verge of perhaps too human-looking. (And I find deer very elegant looking, which is just more appealing, in general.)

MMMMM? C:?

But in all seriousness, I love the centaur body time, so I'm down for this in ANY form. Maybe it's all deer, maybe it's a deer and a lizard, maybe it's a bird head. I dunno, all is good, but I like the centaur make a LOT. Would love to have it.

Yesss! Honestly, I'm getting so many character ideas just thinking about it! *o* I love the sketches, by the way! c:

Also, just choked on my coffee thanks to Moofius and the man-jestic man-taur, haha.

I LOVE more animal-based 'taurs, particularly when designed effectively. Certain animals lend themselves better to the meld - deer and unicorn being prime examples in my experience, though I've seen some REALLY darling goat 'taurs before too.

I think it tackles the problem of it being too human-like, while giving us the option of a pet type many of us have considered a great idea for a long while.

He needs no army where he's headed cause he knows

And they can't hurt him if he can't see them
And I don't know

Let it be known
That I was worthy,
I was worthy,

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I know that a deertaur species exists on Furvilla. So we'd have to be careful to make it dissimilar enough to not get in trouble since the saggitauri has been around since last year.

Well, my heart is gold and my hands are cold

Taurs of various species have been around in the furry community for AGES (believe me, as I mentioned, some species are better suited to it than others. I know someone with a tiger taur sona and it is ??? but whatever makes them happy) so I doubt there would be any particular fluff about it, unless a relatively new site wanted to try and go after every taur that's ever been made, hehe. I've been seeing deertaur art since the days of the Elfwood art site almost 10 year back.

Yee I love the Saggitari, but we can definitely make something different enough! Thanks for the heads-up, though, Talcen! Thankfully Taurs can be literally any animal as long as its got 4 legs, a body, a torso extending from the shoulders of that body, and arms on the torso. So we could definitely mix and match some fun animals until we get something that feels unique!

You'll see, with no more tears
And love will not break your heart
But dismiss your fears

There's also always the option to make to make it a ptero centaur- wings coming out of the shoulder of the animal base.
