Description

Full view please! 

This is my first full anthro character :3

I've been thinking up a lotr oc for a long time, but now I finally got to making her!

Sorry, the anatomy is a bit iffy in some places. This is one of my first anthros, so yeah :3

Bio:

Name: Rhavaneil or "Rhaven" for short

Gender: Female

"non-anthro" species: Elf x 'Beorning' (Human Skin changer) Beorn's ancestors had a gift of shape shifting, which was passed on through bloodline to Rhavan. 

Anthro species: Her most common anthro appearance is a red fox

Type of elf: Wood elf

Weapons: She has quite a few weapons. Among them are a sword, dagger, bow and arrows, and two elvish knives on her back. She is quite light on her feet when in a battle, however her style is more reckless than her elven kin. She fights with more ferocity, using her ability as a shape shifter to her advantage, changing forms as she goes.  However she is wise not to abuse her gift and only uses it when necessary. When fighting she approaches each foe with a fluid motion. 

Appearance: She is a beautiful, but strong anthro fox with long reddish-brown hair. She is slender, but short. She has many different sets of armor or gear when going into battle, but her most casual one is a tunic from the woodland realm where she spent a great deal of time following in the footsteps of her mother. She also wears a pale green scarf which was also common in the woodland realm. Along side her elven wear, are many different plates of armor protecting her shoulders, arms, and knees, as well as scale chainmail protecting her thighs. Another distinct detail that is her red feather which she acquired on one of her adventures, which is another story. 

I'll write more about her bio later! (trying to get me research and details right hehe XD if you see anything thats largely inconsistent, let me know!)

Cool character, I love the design C: 

And she's a descendant of Beorn, awesome! What animal does she shapeshift into?

Also, her name is really cool.

Thank you so much :3

Yush, I love Beorn. His "kind" is so cool! 

Anyway, she has a number of animals she commonly shape shifts into. The most common ones are a fox (feral), a griffin (phoenix), a lion, a large dragon, a hawk, a wolf, many others :3

You're welcome :3


I love Beorn too. Shepeshifters are awesome. 


That's really cool It's interesting how she's an anthro fox that shapeshifts into a feral fox XD Is there a reason why she can shapeshift into many animals? Because I think Beorn was only able to shapeshift into one.

PricklyAlpaca In reply to HalfmoonBeta [2014-01-11 01:39:36 +0000 UTC]

So true :3

Thanks! She has a human form where she's a normal elf like you see in the films, but anthro is the common one I draw her in cause my humans are iffy XD

She doesn't have endless forms. Only a few more than the ones I mentioned. My explanation goes with the theatrical version of Beorn because there isn't a whole lot of info on the Beornings otherwise. He and his race were captured, caged, tortured. My interpretation was that the reason Beorn's Bear form is so unreasonable is that it's part of the torture. Part of Azog's fun. Basically Rhavan wasn't caught be Azog because she grew up with elves so she isn't locked in one alternate form. But she doesn't have endless forms either. 

It's a loose explanation at best, but it's pretty much what I had in mind when designing the character. Also having more forms aids her in battle.

Your welcome! That makes sense XD It's okay, cuz I can't really draw humans either, or even canines XP 


That actually make a lot of sense. They didn't really go into Beorn's past in the book (or so I think ) and I don't know much about Beorn's race either, so your explanation is pretty plausible. 


No, your explanations pretty good. And, yep, turning into lots of animals is pretty helpful in battle XD

PricklyAlpaca In reply to HalfmoonBeta [2014-01-11 22:59:39 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. I need to practice humans... but it will be a while XD

Thanks. One of my friends helped me to a bit of digging, so I sort of paired that with the explanation that they gave for Beorn being the last of his kind in the movie :3

Yup. I have some funny images of that in my head. One of them in Rhaven turning into a feral fox and biting someone in the leg XD

Thank you so much :3

I'm a bit busy atm :/ I've had to turn down a lot of fun trades and collabs lately, but school just started and I have a couple commissions left. Including yours.

I don't know if you even remember, it's been so long and I was pretty slow going with the realistic commissions but I still haven't been able to get it done. I don't know when I'll be able to, honestly. I haven't had much luck with trying out good fur methods for chat poses. If you'd like a refund I'd be happy to give you one because I don't want it to drone on forever.

I'm so sorry :/ I try not to let this happen, but as my style has changed my old methods don't really work anymore.

I used a lot of the design aspects of Tauriel's costumes because they're what wood-elves wear. But I was trying to set her appeart from Tauriel, they're pretty differant.

But thanks :3

I've seen AUJ 60+ times probably, and I've seen DOS 4 so far :3

Love it! I have my problems with DOS of course because of it's inconsistencies with the book, but it's still an awesome film.

I'm reading the hobbit now, then after that I'll begin reading lord of the rings. (Reading them in order)

But I'm absolutely obsessed with lotr <3

I read all books in order, so I am very excited to read the series.. my friend in Norway said it's a wonderful series, and I believe he is currently on.. I am trying to remember the name of the second LOTR book... Ah, two towers x,D He is currently on that one, I believe...

And I have seen AUJ about 15 times since it came out, and I've seen DOS 1 time.. I am going to go see it in the cinema again, though.. very excited x,D

The two towers is probably my favorite of the trilogy

I just love all of it. In my opinion Tolken created the best fantasy universe in history!

I have to say, that one was probably one the best.. and Tolkien is absolutely fantastic, but I had a hard time appreciating him to the level I do right now..

PricklyAlpaca In reply to Hynacynth [2014-01-09 18:14:05 +0000 UTC]

I actually did too. My mom is a bit of a book geek freak, and she kept urging me to watch/read lotr. She is into some pretty campy stuff, so at first I didn't want to. But then I pretty much ran out of good action movies, so I watched them. Then I'm like, y'know, this is freaking epic. So I became obsessed. Then I started getting into the books, and the background of the universe and ended up loving it!

Ah, my parents started watching the movies and went to see them in the cinema with me when I was barely grown up. I was like.. a baby when they went to see the lord of the rings, so I grew up with it. And they both read the book, and after seeing desolation of smaug, i decided i am old enough to read it xD

I saw lotr in theaters when they came out when I was about 3 :3

I didn't remeber anything though XD I remeber some things, but yeah, not much. I watched then for the first comprehensive time last august. Watched them every week ever since XD

And omg lucky.. that must be really cool.. I am dying to get the entire series, but I am tempted to just make myself not watch the hobbit trilogy until I have all three of the hobbit trilogy xDD I have the first one, but I am going to get DOS when it comes out.
