Zanobi reference. Everything's a little bit cluttered, I know that. But he has a lot of accessories, naturally. So, I decided to number them and I'll explain them in the description.

Zanobi is my male fursona, containing every rebellious, wild, homicidal, sick, violent, and overall psychotic nature that I try my best to conceal. But don't get poor Zano wrong... He isn't all bad.

Name: Zanobi.
Nickname: Zano.
Name Meaning: "Scarcely alive."
Name Origin: Latin.
Age: Twenty-one. (Human years.)
Species: No one has any friggin' clue. (Looks to be a mix of a... Wolf, fox, horse, lizard, lynx, bird, bat, and fairy?)
Gender: Male.
Height (Anthro): 6'03".
Height (Quadruped): 4'05" at the highest point. (Which would be his head, excluding his ears.)
Build: Bulky, masculine.
Weight (Anthro): Unknown.
Weight (Quadruped): Unknown.
Weapon Of Choice: Chainsaw?
Battle Cry: CRAAAAAAAAAAACK.
Personality: Zanobi is... Bizarre. That's the best way to describe him. Everything about him is bizarre. His markings, his likes, his dislikes... Bizarre. Zanobi is masochistic, which means he finds pleasure in pain. This does not mean he is into self-harm; he just enjoys the feeling of pain when he is injured. Because of this, Zanobi is practically immune to pain. He could have bullets flying through him, and he would keep going until a leg or two were shattered, or he was dead. Upon meeting Zanobi, you would notice he almost seems like he's drugged. Is he, really? No. It's just his nature to look like he had a few puffs of marijuana before going on with his business. Zanobi is very destructive, and enjoys breaking things; including his own bones. He is the type to bust into a fit of insane laughter when there isn't really any reason to. His mind is highly tainted when it comes to perverted intellections. He isn't necessarily morbid, just... Very perverted. He strives to make sure he gets laid every night. If he doesn't, he goes into a crybaby fit, and whines to all the women he knows, just begging them to do him. If he is unsuccessful, he will go into a dark place and curl up for a night to suppress his raging hormones. Zanobi likes yelling and hollering for no reason. Overall, he is a happy individual! In a very insane sort of way. On the downside, Zanobi suffers from Bipolar disorder. If something presses his buttons, his moods swing from his usual happy madness, to a fit of violence. He has been known to attack friend and foe alike, and has done quite some damage in the process. His mind rots with the sick thoughts of death and decay, and he usually turns homicidal. If no one is around for him to take his anger out on, he will take it out on himself. Zanobi enjoys piercings, and usually gives himself new ones every so often. Zanobi also likes children (surprisingly), but it's sad to say children don't like him very much. Zanobi can be a friend, in an off sort of way. He can't comfort very well, but will do whatever he can to show those he actually considers pals he really does care. What he offers isn't... Always in the best interest, but he tries! Another one of Zanobi's quirks is he likes to run around shirtless, or with his shirt open (if it's a button-up). Overall, the odd creature is a good man at heart; he just lost his mind somewhere along the way and can't quite find it.
History: Zanobi doesn't know where he came from. Heck, he doesn't even know if he was born. What's worst, he doesn't even know what kind of animal he is! All Zanobi knows, is he has his creator to thank for his existence, and Noccy and Ilex to thank for picking him up from the "waiting room" after he was created. (A long, long story.) So, no parents, no last name, no history. You'd be surprised how easy that makes life.

Colors:
First Color: Main coat color.
Second Color: Black markings, clothes, collars, wings, etc.
Third Color: Red markings, darker stripes on his scarf.
Fourth Color: Eye color.
Fifth Color: Red on his clothes and collars.
Sixth Color: Silver on his accessories and piercings.

Body:
Head Region: Strong snout. Red eyes, with a cat-like slit for the pupil. Long, pointed ears that are usually held back, but doesn't always have to be. Little tufts of fur adorn the tips of the ears, something like that of a Lynx. Similarly, his cheek fur is long and droopy like a Lynx's. Upon his ears, one could observe two small notches. This was caused from past piercings being ripped from his ears. Most of his piercings are on the face region, and include: one eyebrow piercing on each eyebrow, two piercings on each ear lobe, a single bridge piercing on his snout, a septum piercing on his nose, and spiderbite piercings on his lower lip (spiderbite is two piercings on the opposite sides of the lower lip, and a single labret piercing in the center of the lip. The labret piercing is usually a spiked stud, while the other two piercings can be a simple sphere stud, or hoops. Zanobi prefers studs over hoops, however.) Zanobi's hairtuft is long, parted on the left side and covers his right eye; the right side of the tuft is longer than the left. Inside Zanobi's ear, one could see a small flare of black ear fur. Inside his mouth, is a retractable tongue, much like a lizard's. It can very in lengths, and is pointed at the tip. In the center of the tongue, are three barbell-type piercings that run vertically up the middle, each separated about an inch apart. Inside the mouth, one could see the skin is not the natural fleshy pink, but instead a very dark shade of gray, proving his skin color is not pink, but instead an off-shade of black. (Thus the black tongue. Make sure to keep this in mind if you plan on showing the inside of his mouth.)
Neck Region: Zanobi is very fluffy around his neck tuft area. Also, the start of a spiked mane runs the length of his neck, onward to his spine. Around the stump of his neck, is some sort of collar; usually the black collar with spikes protruding from it. It is rare for him to not wear a collar. When he is feeling cold, or when he just wants to, he will also wear his scarf.
Torso: His body build is rather strong, and muscular. The thing to notice most about the torso region is the spiked mane, which continued from his neck, onward. It stops at the base of his tail. Two tailbone piercings, made up of barbell-style piercings, are located just before the base of his tail. Two wings, of various styles, sprout from his shoulder blades. Wings do not have to be drawn, but they are preferred. Sometimes, Zanobi will wear his black and red striped thermal.
Legs: Legs are strongly built. Upon his forearm's elbows, long tufts of fur are seen drooping. There is usually something on his arms/wrists; whether it just be the spiked wristbands, armwarmers, or fistnets.
Feet: The feet are adorned with black pawpads. Upon each digit, black claws are seen. These claws are retractable, like a feline's. On his hind feet, Zanobi has fur featherings.
Tail: Very long, fluffy tail. It's about two times the length of his body.

Accessories:
Wings - Zanobi will almost always be seen with some sort of wings. They can be left out, but I would prefer it if you put at least SOME sort of wings on him. (That's why I made various styles, so people could pick one that was easiest.) Yes, he can fly with these wings, but only with the bird wings, and bat wings. (When they are in smaller scale, it means he is not flying.) Floating bat wings, floating bird wings, and fairy wings are just for show.
1. Bat wing. Three tones in color, and can range from a small wingspan of about 6'05" (too small to fly with. It's about the size of the bird wings in the picture), to a much larger wingspan of about 10'09", large enough to fly with.
2. Floating bird wing. It has a small spike protruding from it, and a swirl in the center. It is three toned. It is about 1'04" in length.
3. Floating bat wing. Small curl at the bottom, and also has a spike protruding from it. About the same length as the floating bird wing.
4. Fairy wings. Why in the world I gave him fairy wings is beyond me. Because I thought they would fit him. Seeing as he cannot fly with the wings, I don't much care what size they are. They are three-toned, and can be connected, or not connected to his back.
5. Bird Wings. Three tones in color, and can range from a small wingspan of about 6'05" (too small to fly with. It's about the size of the wings in the picture), to a much larger wingspan of about 10'09", large enough to fly with. There is a black spike protruding from the arch of the wing. These are the wings he is normally seen with. (This doesn't really matter any, but if you look at the first row of feathers, I always draw it slowly curling back, in a starburst effect. It's not correct bird wing anatomy, but it's just a design that's unique to him. If you want to do the starburst effect as well, go ahead. But you don't have to.)

Clothes - Zanobi is known to be very fashionable. He almost has a feminine taste in clothing, though not quite. He likes stars a lot, along with stripes.
1. Black and red striped thermal. He would wear this in his anthro form, and in his quadruped form. It looks like it has a turtleneck, but heh... It doesn't. Ignore that. xD It's way off looking in that picture... It would cover most of his torso, to about his hips. The sleeves would run down his entire arm, and cover his paws slightly.
2. Black and red striped armwarmers. Would be worn on the forearm, starting from the center of the forearm, downwards to his paws, covering them slightly.
3. Fishnet armwarmers. Would be worn on his forearms, starting from just below the elbow, down his entire forearm, onto his paws, where the fishnet would hook between any two of his digits. (On a human hand, it would look something like this . Like the thumb, and pinky hole. Just since he doesn't have a thumb or a pinky... It will loop through any digit you decide.)
4. Black and red striped star scarf. Will wear it around his neck when he wishes. Lengths can vary.

Neck Accessories - Aside from his usual black spiked collar, Zanobi has an assortment of other collars as well.
1. Pyramid studded collar. Looks very similar to one of those pyramid studded belts. Example can be found here , except with two rows instead of three.
2. Black and red striped collar.
3. Black and red star collar.
4. Ball and chain necklace. Not very loose around Zanobi's neck. (It doesn't dangle very much.)
5. Dog bone and star dog tags. Can wear either of these on any one of his collars (and the ball and chain necklace). Doesn't need to have either of these on. Both have his name on them.
