What phenotype are you? Where is the animal from? What is the animals lifestyle in real life?

I think this might be interesting

I am a Maned Wolf. Also known as a red fox on stilts.

Oddly enough this animal is from South America near Peru and Brazil. It is still in existence though only about 3000 still exist. They don't form packs but prefer to hunt alone.

CAUTION: LONG WALL OF TEXT AHEAD xD

Okay...well, I believe I've told you guys my Theriotype before, but I can describe him in more detail here. Also, keep in mind that these aren't final descriptions; they are mainly just guesses. The traits are liable to change in the future, depending on what I find out about myself.

The Arctic dragon has six limbs, consisting of two front limbs, two hind legs, and two wings. The wings are very wide and long, large enough to let the creature fly. There are spikes at the tip of the 'arm' of the wing, curving inwards towards the head. These are useful for both climbing rocks and cliffs when the wing itself is damaged, or in battles when all other attacks prove ineffective. However, these are a last-resort weapon, as the wings themselves are fragile and easily damaged. The long reach and speed of the attacks do prove useful, though.

The wing membrane is sturdy and pretty elastic, proving resistant to ripping and tearing to a degree. The end of the skin connects right about in the middle of where the hind leg attaches to the body. I'm not sure what color this is, but it is not furred like the rest of the body.

As for protection, a number of sturdy plates cover the body, but most of these are small and none are bigger than the width of a soccer ball. The thickest a plate can be is about a quarter of an inch thick; this allows for some protection and still allows the dragon to fly without being weighted down. In areas that still need to be protected but also need to be flexible, small scales are substituted instead. So, basically, the plates are just large scales. All of this is covered in a layer of medium-length fur, allowing the dragon to be protected from the harsh elements. The image I've been getting in my mind is black fur with copper markings, including a copper diamond on the head, but again, this is liable to change.

My tail is around 3/4 of my entire body length and is also covered in fur. The tip ends in a sort of piercing/bludgeoning weapon, which is highly effective in exploiting weaknesses in human armor. It is very dexterous, but in return, is also highly sensitive. If it is cut off, I imagine that I would be in a lot of pain. This also makes it very painful for it to be stepped upon. xD The tail also helps keep me balanced, and aids in flight as a sort of rudder. The tail is wider at the base and tapers off towards the end.

My legs are basically the same structure as a dog's or a cat's. The proportions are similar to that of a wolf's body. There are (probably) four claws on my front legs, and either three or five on my back. This is a topic I'm pretty unsure about. For all I know, I could have paws. However, it is probably a talon/paw mix, each toe topped with a long, non-retractable claw.

The muzzle is also long, but not as slender as some other dragons. It's sort of like a horse's head and a wolf's head mix. I'd really have to draw this one on paper to get you to understand. However, I don't have a visible nose on the end of my snout like a dog's; it's more like a reptilian/horse pair of nostrils. My mouth goes back almost to my eyes, and is covered in very pointy teeth that you probably wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of. My eyes are golden. On the nape of the neck I have two pairs of horns (so far), one much larger than the other. I am unsure of the color; it may be a copper or a black like my fur. Same goes for the ridges of spikes trailing along my back. These are very sharp but are wider than a needle, and are not conical shaped. It's more of a flat, oblong-ish shape. These get smaller as they come to the end of my tail.

Breathing fire is a shaky subject for me. I believe that I am probably able to do it, but I'm not sure how. Because of this, I've ruled out the 'tinder pouch' theory, which constitutes the dragon swallowing flint and another stone to create sparks, which are ignited by a flammable gas that the dragon breathes. I don't remember trying to eat any flint, so this is probably not the case. I'd have to say I'd go along with the theory of breathing an already-flammable mix of gases. These may or may not aid in the flying process, as if the gases in question are lighter than air, than they may help me to fly. The fire may or may not have also aided in keeping me warm in the winter months.

Also note that though I've been speaking about this in a past-tense, I don't believe that this was a past-life incarnation. I'd like to think that this is my soul as of the present, though I don't have any proof for this.

This is the best pic I drew of myself ^-^ Though I had to censor out the pair of humans getting tortured before being devoured (the full image is on my Deviant Art lol and no, my mate and I don't have hatchlings yet)

I am a chaos dragoness. I am adorned with many fierce spikes (A few on the legs where not included in my picture to not lose detail in over detailing). My scales are black with a blood red shimmer when light hits them. The wing membrane is greyish (more so a translucent black). I have a long black shiny mane as all the females in my clan have.

I am an long tailed, or white, weasel.

Long tailed weasels are found in almost all of the United States, parts of Canada and down into parts of South America

They are solitary animals that are come together only during the mating season. They are very aggressive to intruders on their territory.

During summer, the long tailed weasel's fur is a beautiful shade of brown, but during winter months (in areas that have snow) their fur becomes almost all white.

@Kashaku: Woah, that's really good! How did you color it? Photoshop?

@Death Goo: Welcome!

coloured pencil and ink.... the only photoshop was the hastily applied concrete back, drop shadow and of course the censorship of the hella detailed gory vore part of it lol

I'm a winged Siberian wolf, but I guess I'll ignore the winged part for now; since it really has nothing to do with the true type. XD

Siberian wolves are the largest still-existing wolves today, growing 6 to 7 feet long and 28 to 32 inches tall at the shoulder. They are only competed with in size by the Tundra wolf, which is only slightly smaller on average, though the sizes will often overlap. They roam in the northern lands of Russia which can get to -94o Fahrenheit, making it one of the coldest places on earth in the winter. Unlike many wolves, the pack sizes of Siberian wolves can grow into the thirties, which packs this large they can claim a territory of over 5,000 square miles.

Here's a Siberian wolf: Its not the right coloring, ("I" am black.) but I liked the interesting camera angle. ^^

As a random note, I am a compulsive ice-chewer, but do not have low iron like most who have the habit. My 'sister' who is a winged Tundra wolf, developed the theory that I chew ice because the Siberian wolf has to in order to get to get moisture in the frozen streams of Russia. XD However, this has not been proven. We only discovered this tidbit over this past weekend when I happily found a documentary playing on Animal Planet about Siberian wildlife. :3

Here is a slightly modified avatar that I made into my coloring; its fairly close to what "I" look like.

Siberian wolves hunt reindeer, horned sheep, wild horses, and musk deer; also known as vampire deer. =D The males grow long fangs instead of antlers, the longer the fangs the older the deer.

Hi ^^ I’m an Arctic Fox, although I’m not very Monogamous, which could be because I’m still looking for a mate. But either way I’m still very loyal to my family, although I do feel a strong urge that I have to leave them soon. My theory for that is that female Arctic Foxes usually leave there families and form there own once they are old enough. I have Dark brown hair in the summer, which lightens in the winter to match the color of the trees around the 10 acres I live on. One of my favorite things to do is running in my forest and staying the shadows watching others. Unlike most people my age I don’t let my emotions control me, I look at the situation then respond with the most logical action, which sometimes is doing nothing.

Lesse....I'm a young arctic fox, young canadian lynx, and adolescent tuxedo wolf. Two of the three are colder climate animals which I think is the reason I don't get cold as easily as most people I know. I also like to play around and pounce on people which a lynx kitten would do while learning to hunt. As for the wolf one, I believe that my wolf is a loner that would much rather be out running around by itself rather then with a huge pack, granite I do have lots of friends but I prefer being by myself more then being around them all the time.

im a cat. i dont know if im suposed to be a specific cat or just a feline in general. but at the moment im leaning towards either a gray tabby or black & white -> american shorthair or european shorthair. from obviously america or europe.., but i dont know if i am one of those or not..
anyways. cat personalities vary,but the kind of cat i am, would be playful, independant but affectionate from time to time, and outside a lot hunting mice or birds. :3
