Beastmen of Torvair Part 2

Added 2019-05-17 15:00:02 +0000 UTC

So this is a follow up to my previous post which original intention was to make a poll on what species of beastmen that you as the players would like to see in game. It becomes so easy to fall back to more popular and well known animals and use them in game for non-important characters, or background characters. Ones that the main character sees but does not interact with or if they do, usually only have a few lines of dialogue.

As of right now, I can actually count on my fingers the different species that the main character has come in contact, that includes characters that you have yet to see. But to breathe more life into the game, to show just how varied beastmen are and numerous they are with the human populace I thought about ways to introduce more of them into the game and what kinds to use.

Now for certain reasons I can't go too in depth but not every animal in the world has a beastman counterpart, or at least one that hasn't been discovered yet. They aren't really elusive creatures so throughout the history of the world, those who have studied and documented beastmen have found that there really is a finite number currently living on Torvair, among the most common ones being animals that most people here in our world know of such as Tigers, lions, bears, wolves, etc... That of course doesn't mean there aren't other that are less well known. There are cheetahs, and panthers, kangaroos, and other such animals.

So going back to the purpose of the this whole post, what animal is your favorite that you would like to see in game? Don't have just one, how about two? Three? Not sure how this may effect the game in the future, maybe I'll make a few minor characters based on the top three chosen, maybe they'll just be mentioned more often in the world? It's still up in the air but I thought it would be a interesting to know what others are interested in.
