cute...perhaps, but I think they look kinda naked and ugly.... A cat with fur is better looking imho.

Not everything needs to be beautiful. Just look at Kran. *runs*

But seriously, it\'s 1) up to the individual to decide what is beautiful, and 2) why not have the ability to play the ugly? ;)

One thing I find important about the more unusual extremities of creatures (like wings and tails):

These are bound to have been put to a use other than just flying or keeping balance. I\'m sure everyone who has seen a live cat knows that their tails are a most obvious sign of their mood. I\'d love to see this kind of thing in PS. Maybe have the user select the mood and the engine\'ll work out some semi-random movement?

The same goes for wings and those things on the heads (no, I do NOT mean hair! *g*) of the Klyros. Have them erect these if they\'re angry and have them make these as small as possible if they\'re frightened or trying to hide.

This opens up new possibilities for roleplaying as you can deliberately set a fake mood, like to trick your opponent into thinking you\'re frightened / submissive or whatever. Like facial expressions, really, which would also be cool. (or simply because you think it looks better one way or another ;))

One can argue whether all race\'s facial expressions are the same due to the long time of common history, or if they are different and might not exist / mean the opposite / etc. :)

Oh, and I\'d _love_ plants on the ground / walls, like high grass, flowers, etc.. If they would react (not bite you, but sway or get knocked off / aside) to moving past / through, It\'d be so cool!

Oh yeah, I beg to leave the choice of ugliness / cuteness / darkness up to the player, because I\'m all for diversity. I loved the color selection of BG, NWN, etc..

I\'d _love_ to have a Klyros with tattoos on the wings! Yeah, that\'d be me, then! :)

Oh yeah, how about magically glowing tattoos? Not the best for hiding in the dark, but then again, it\'s my choice to choose flashy looks over functionality, isn\'t it? ;)

Edited for adding more points.

Just so you know, those are generally called crests :D

Ah, good to know, thank you!

Speaking of these, i\'m posting this from a halflife-model because I sort of like the little wing-like thingies (um, would these be called \"crests\" as well?).


Why does it hate png?

Anyway, regarding the branding of Enkis: brands and fur actually mix very well. Remember that brands were mainly used to mark cattle, which almost always was covered in fur.

There\'ll most likely be plenty of flaming enki\'s in CB with all the mages who\'re going to be playing around with fire magicks. It\'s got to be fun. :)

Speaking of the emotes, how about a \"panic\" emote, like if you get hit by a fire spell and your clothes catch on fire? :)

In later versions of PS, there will probably be facial expressions. Long timea go, a dev (think it was Venge), posted a link to a demo of some facial-expressions engine-thingy too. Use the search function if you wanna find out more. ;)

What do you think hammer and chisel are for? Or you could engrave things. :D
