I'm thinking of doing some in-game study (and some possible artisanal work) regarding the different subspecies of Furrikin. (Not sure what they would ACTUALLY be called. Subspecies just sounded like the best word to use.) So far, I know (or at least my theory is) that most Furrikin are either Foxes or Squirrels. These seem to be the ones I've encountered most. Others I know of:
  • Bear
    • Furloch
    • Trundle
  • Ermine
    • Feyrll
  • Feline
    • Isluna
  • Fox
    • Lye
    • Nejii
    • Tael
  • Mongoose
    • Shaddai
  • Opossum
    • Orti (formerly)
  • Otter
    • Vix
  • Platypus
    • Fionn (via chaneself)
  • Porcupine
    • Veyda's alt (no name given)
  • Rabbit
    • Joli
    • Urazial
  • Raccoon
    • Tias
  • Rat
    • Rattusk
  • Red Panda
    • Ialie
  • Skunk
    • Ongaku
  • Squirrel
    • Kaela
    • Sylphas
  • Sugar Glider
    • Unnamed Seren newbie
  • Turtle
    • Tomtom Hardshell (Estelbar mob)
  • Unicorn
    • Ialie
I'm curious to find out, either from other players of furrikin or those who are friends of in-game furrikin, which subspecies other than the ones listed they have encountered.

EDIT: I'd also like specific character names if possible please!

Turtle.

confused.gif Now...I realize the help file doesn't say "Furrikin cannot be anything but mammals," but last I checked, the name "Furrikin" implied fur. Show me a turtle that has fur and I'll accept that one. Otherwise, Mr. Turtle is not going to be added to the list.

...Can I have an in-character example of one you've seen? suspicious.gif

Although yes, a Sugar Glider Furrikin would be freaking adorable. Curse you, Sybl! You've made me frilly again!

Vix plays an otter when she is furrikin so you can have a confirmed character for that one.

Lovely! Thank you, Sarrasri!

Badger. Dunno about characters, but that's what Weeky Peedia is.

Tomtom Hardshell in Estelbar is a turtle furrikin.

Tias was a raccoon.

Also, Joli -WAS- a rabbit furrikin as well.

Tomtom? Well, all right, if there's a mob that's a turtle, I'll add it. Thanks.

Ex-nothing!

Furloch was a little bear, I think.

Excellent! I went ahead and put you twice, Ialie, since you came up with two Furrikin forms. happy.gif
