Description

a slight revamp of the light fury! i loved her as is but i wasn’t a huge fan of the sexual dimorphism they gave her. sexual dimorphism is neat but not when it’s used to make something or someone pretty and dainty to appeal to audiences. so!

i loved the idea of light furies being cave dwellers, so a shorter wing-span makes sense in order to navigate tight areas. and i actually didn’t mind her smooth scales, rounded wings, and lack of ridges, but it’d make more sense if she were semi-aquatic. being both cave-dwelling and aquatic, echolocation seemed like a reasonable perk. and living in those cold waters requires insulation, so light furies are a bit chubbier due to fat reserves. and i wanted to play even more with the whole “light” fury thing, so rather than plasma blasts that make her scales reflective, she has chromatophores! excellent for camouflage, communication, and displays

Ooh. Its nice to see someone actually work with the lightfury concept instead of just ‘nah this sucks lets do something completely different.’

Heh, nah when I first saw her I thought she looked stupid and her forehead was too big and she looked like a whale. Now I kinda understand why she had to be so different. The dorsals and such are a brilliant addition.
