Otters sounds adorbablez. Possibly with tiny wings too small to fly with but they fly with them anyway.

Deadtime now. Goodnight, sleep tight and don't let the Ypotryll bite.
I didn't say they had to be My Little Ponies... >.>
They could be Nexus-only ponies. <.<
Pony-like if you will. Pony-esque.
I like the otter creature thing better. :smallsmile:
I'm having severe computer problems. It took me 30 minutes just to get to this thread and load the page... :-(
I will have trouble posting in reply to anything and my schedule is absurd this week.
If you PM me with a direct link to the post you'd like replied to it will make it easier for me to post in spite of my failing computer. I just can't go searching for posts.

As for a cute Nexus creature, I used to have one called the Muffling. It was a fuzz-ball with three spring-like legs. It sproinged everywhere. It had a pushed-in nose like a Persian kitten and big ears like This Little Guy. Its call is a bright 'snufu!' and it's primary food is chocolate chip muffins, though it will eat any muffin it can get, like blueberry or lemon or... you get the picture :smallbiggrin:
Anyhow, that is my odd creature.
I like the idea of the Nexus creature being a long otter-like critter with many feet and a fluffy body and a whiskery face. They should be called Otalots.
Maybe their tail should be prehensile?
Whatever you guys decide, given the descriptions given in this thread thus far, I think I will have to have a character play the role of 'Meep Exterminator'. :smallannoyed:
Perhaps a Klingon. :smalltongue:
Just don't let any get into the engines... :smalltongue:
Update:
I got all the posts that I need to reply to from Inside into a Word doc so I can work on them.
I will have replies to all of them within a few days, if not sooner. :smallsmile:
Please give me a link to the posts in any other locations that I need to reply to, and Thanks!
I don't think Meeps can be killed. I like to think that if someone tried, the Meep would just cuddle them extra-lots because anyone mean and grumpy enough to try obviously needs even more cuddles than usual!
Also, they should spontaneously lower the intelligence of anyone nearby with a cuteness aura.:smalltongue:
*Pokes C'nor to Outside*
The exterminator might suck them up with some sort of thingy that sends them to some sort of Meep Plane... but they keep leaking in, so the life of an exterminator is one of Sisiphyian labor.
Lower intelligence aura? Sounds awesome. :smalltongue:
I would prefer if Meeps (or whatever they'll be named) not be a real threat of any kind. The idea that they aren't seen to eat and simply feed off the ambient weird of the Nexus (or something) would allow them to spend all their time doing suitably adorable things.
So here's what we've got.
Weasel/otter like animal, perhaps as much as three feet long. They have three pairs of cute lil' feet, the front pair of which has squirrel-thumbs. When they feel threatened they inflate themselves to look larger and more intimidating, though in the end it's probably mostly useless and just looks silly.
Fur color, pattern, texture, stiffness, and length varies between individuals widely depends on what sort of ambient Nexus strangeness they've been feeding on. Their bodies are extremely flexible which makes it difficult to harm them physically. They are playful, intelligent, inquisitive, and generally friendly toward people and other animals.
Leading mages and biologists have speculated that Meeps are a physical manifestation of the plastic and whimsical nature of the Nexus itself. Nay-sayers have speculated that the Nexus kidnaps beings and locations for the purpose of amusing and feeding the Meeps. But clearly that's false since Meeps are so fuzzy-wuzzy adorable and such grumpy people are grumpy-butts.
I'd play one of those. Have all sorts of Meep adventures.
Pokes Lex-Kat to GLoG for letter. :smallsmile:
Lex-kat doesn't regularly read the OOC thread. Consider PMing.
Ah, I already Pmed in case she didn't. :smallsmile:
Final phase of the Meeps project before they're released on the Nexus!
Will we call them Meeps?
Or some other name?
Grundlekrug spawn? :smalltongue:
Ollies. I like Ollies. For the name.
Not much has happened, since Alexandrian had to take a week off, too.
Basically, Murkus' character knows Demon Queen is there now, but not Shrike, and not why. People are starting to walk into the theater, but nothing has actually started yet. Demon Queen is about to walk in as well, unless Shrike stops her for whatever reason.
Name suggestions!
Meeps
Otalots
Ollies
Grundlekrug Spaw =P
Nexu
Other suggestions?
Voting?
Also!
A bit of clarification on differences in appearance based on Nexus strangeness nomming.
A Meep hanging out with dragons might have fur akin to pangolin scales, giving her a dragonish appearance.
A Meep under water might be blue/white with slick ottery fur.
A Meep in the MagCave might get silver and purple hair with one red eye, ect.
Note that I refuse to find them cute until Kid Kris draws one.
HINT HINT
The only way I'm drawing them is carved up and served on a silver platter.
