SNAPPING WOLVES: "Canis spinosa."
a small, aggressive subspecies of the Threatening Wolf.
Tumblr media
tagging @scarsmood for inspiring this journey and @ferny-fang because he seemed interested. :3
general build: snapping wolves are, as mentioned, a lot smaller than their threatening wolf ancestors. their average shoulder height is around 3-4ft while their body length is around 4-5ft from nose to tail. they tend to be built slimmer as well, with less muscle, longer + slender legs, sleek fur, with a longer muzzle. built for agility, terrain navigation, and speed.
colorings + markings: they tend to be dully-colored; muddy browns, rusty oranges, and smokey black are some examples. they usually have solid coloration, however markings aren't rare- said markings bear resemblance to a striped hyena or on the back flank similar to a tasmanian tiger. spotted markings are fairly uncommon.
spikes + other factors: they trend towards short, sleek fur, occasionally with a single "mane" of longer fur running down the length of the body. they have both longer and more back spines than threatening wolves, usually laying flat within the "longer fur mane." these spines can be raised and flattened at will- usually used as a threat display. their tail is whip-thin and often used as a distraction in combat. they are able to open their jaws extremely wide, similar to the tasmanian tiger. uniquely, they have two pairs of large ears, similar to bat ears, that can move/swivel independently. three-toed paws (not shown in image) with retractable claws.
fun facts!: their saliva acts as an skin irritant. depending on the bite, it can cause anything from a mild rash to long-lasting burn scars. (however, they can't breath fire like their ancestors.)
. . .
feeding: omnivorous scavengers. lone snappers will scavenge dead animals, rotting fruits, etc. snappers in a pack may endurance-hunt larger animals; grouping up and surrounding their prey until it exhausts itself. however, this endurance-hunting phenomenon isn't seen often; theorized to be a sort of "celebration ritual."
habitat: they live around the foothills of large mountains, most often around forestry. while they do mantain a territory, it is not nearly as "strict" as many other territorial animals. packs will often let other packs stroll through their territories, as long as said pack keeps a distance from their home "den."
pack behavior: packs can be any size under ten. they trend towards 5-7. they are usually built up of "siblings;" that is, snappers that have known each-other since puphood, even if the snappers in question are not blood-related. packs don't have a definite leader- it's less a hierarchy and more a group, kept together for both safety, social bonds, protection, etc.
other fun facts: their vocalization's are described as "very strange;" a series of hyena-like laughs to communicate with packmates, cat-like hissing, clicking, and chirping, as well as guttural moans and growls when threatened. speaking of; snappers are actually more cowardly than they seem- while they may flair up their fur and spines under duress, they are hesitant to actually attack humans.
. . .
to be elaborated on in a later post: reproduction + courtship, more pack dynamics (as well as how lone snappers behave,) more visuals and niche facts, etc. feel free to ask me questions about this species! please.

YOUR TAAAAGS YOUR TAGS YOUR TAGS YOUR TAGS. ok. off is kind of hit or miss for most people because its so weird and vague and i am extremely biased bc its one of my favorite thinfs ever BUT. i am going 2 say i think u will love it actually. its got soooo many fairytaleisms. its got tragedy. its got extremely morally grey characters. theres no good guys or bad guys. ITS GOT WEIRD LITTLE GHOSTS !!!!!! look at these bitches i used 2 doodle the off spectres in my notebooks like constantly they feel like home 2 me
Tumblr media
the art style is so unsettling and creepy. its got sketchy lines and weird freak of nature characters. i am going to be EXTREMELY selfish here in saying that i think u will very much enjoy the art style and also i want 2 see how u would draw some of the characters bc ur style is very monochrome and messy (<< i mean this in a beloved sense i love your linework so much) and i think it fits the vibe so perfectly. on a completely unrelated note are you still taking commissions.
ITS GOT ONE OF THE ALL TIME BEST OSTS EVER BTW. i still have the main battle theme (which is called pepper steak btw. best name for a song ever) as my ringtone on my phone. my video game ost rank goes 1.portal 2 2. off 3. undertale 4. minecraft. the off ost holds higher regard in my brain than undertale. shaking your shoulders it fits the vibe of the game soooo perfectly.
i will not get into the story too much here bc i already talked about some vague spoilery stuff in that post and i dont want to tell u too much more in case u do play the game urself BUT. ohhh my god. i could talk about the story for hours. u can ask aster after we finished the game we sat on call for like 2 hours while i walked her through my personal take on the ending and then she gave me her thoughts on the ending and EVEN THOUGH WE PLAYED THE GAME TOGETHER AT THE SAME TIME (i streamed it for her) WE HAD DIFFERENT OPINIONS ON THE END. ITS SOOOOO FUCKING GOOD its one of those things where like. its so open ended that nobody ever gets into fights about what the "right ending" is because. well. there isnt one UGH i love that shit.
also zacharie is here. he is such a beloved character to me hes been one of my biggest huge comfort characters since like. 2015. i love him. hes like sans undertale for people in 2008. he was the original sans undertale. i think they would be best friends
oh also despite the fact that the setting is very much like. weird abstract, sort of fantasy sort of industrial, the main character is a fucking baseball player. hes so out of place its so funny
Tumblr media
^ official art btw. to give u a taste of mortis ghost's art style. its so silly and weird i love it so much
OK THAT WAS MY OFF PROPAGANDA SORRY FOR INVADING UR INBOX I LOVE YOU also ive been in a huge off mood for like 3 days now and have not been able to talk about it so im EXPLODING now
Tumblr media
OHHHHGHGHGHGHHH. MACKERELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL MAC U CAN'T DO THIS TO ME..... ohhhh my god. ok. ok yeah im pinky promising u right now i WILL play it. like. SOON. it looks so good hooly shit. game that i can TELL will rearrange my brain. also it looks SO nice... i like the art style so much. mac u are GETTING me here u KNOW what u are doing. u cant just go ros theres an unsettling morally gray tragic game with an incredible ost and weird art and NOT expect me to go fucking bonkers.

May I politely ask and debate to you about the whole don't pull inspiration from my ocs thing..? I think your point is you don't want people copying your ocs down to the tee but.. like.. inspiration is kinda the one thing I believe is a fine thing to steal.. even if it's like the color palette of something you like.. it's a complement if someone takes inspiration from someone else... Many skeleton ocs and aus where made by pulling inspiration from Sans and Papyrus and undertale... You even have a character based off of Sans- which in a sense is Toby's own ocs if you think about it.. I am sorry if I am coming off rude or something... I'm just trying to figure out what you mean..
🍎
Alright, this is a hot pile to dig through. Sorry if this is messy dear. 1) What i mean by it is dont use it as a excuse to copy my ideas because you cant think of something. 2) Its my ONLY request. Dont copy my chars. Colors? I dont care. Its fucking colors. Art style? Sure, just dont trace. Character designs/concepts? If you cant respect that my trust is lost. 3) I never claimed a Sans oc as my own original character. Sans isnt my property, therefore chars like Zemuf, or even chars based off of LITERAL OTHER PEOPLES OCS SUCH AS FRESH SANS, like Shark Fresh, i have NO rule over. Just dont legit copy to a full design. 4) This did come off as rude the more you typed. This was a very long winded ask of just "What do you mean by "dont take inspo"?". And.. Btw... Dont word it like "inspiration is kinda the one thing I believe is a fine thing to steal" . I dont agree with this, at all. All artists have their own rights, either legally(think disney with Mickey Mouse) , or comfortably, to request people to not copy or use them as inspo. Its a same dumb situation of someone having a generic Hyena OC with legit realistic browns and tans of a IRL Hyena, just giving it lets say bright blue hair, and telling people to not copy, even if its a extremely basic design. Though them being the creator, they request their either small, or large audience to not copy them. Its just a respectful thing to do, even if its dumb. Some dont want their colors picked, while i dont really give a shit. You can use lets say Zemufs colors for a fursona. I dont care, just say you got them from me, and i wont be mad. ( even if you dont, i really dont care. He’s fucking greyscaled. ) My legit ONLY request is dont use my character designs for yourself. Someone recently said they used Guts as a inspo for their own sona, even after i stated MANY times to please not. And as a artist, and now a steadily growing artist, im coming to terms that it will happen, but asks like this draw me back and remind me why i should feel comfortable not letting people use my character concepts for themselves. Specially when i strictly mention one *specific* one such as my sona, SG/SpiderGuts/Guts. I sometimes find it flattering, but i still personally believe it should just be respected, even if its stupid. Its my own personal comfort, and me still trying to get over truamatic stress over even being here, so its something to help me come out of my shell, and become reasonable with it.

Hi, so I recently stumbled upon your fic “the king is dead” on ao3, and I feel I have a vague memory of seeing art of it. But I can’t find anything about this au on your blog. And I was wondering if you were willing to share any about the story?
OH MY GOD. man i haven't thought abt that fic in a while!! I started it on october 25 holy shit ...
okokok so i am planning on continuing this eventually so i cant give too much info but this is the basic idea. Yes this is how all my fic planning docs look...very messy.....(under a read more bc it might get long loll)
 Paul Bigge (29) (fun fact Bigge literally means “Big and Strong'') is a blacksmith living in a small plague ridden town near the castle where his nation’s royal family lives. 
He lives by himself other than his 5yr old son Kayne, or Kay for short (which is based off of AK,, A nickname for the Fun Dead kid).. 
His wife Irene died from the plague that basically turns the infected into a zombie… yep im that uncreative… 
Kay is selectively mute due to the trauma from his mother trying to kill him, haha fun! He does speak a bit but he and Paul normally talk to each other with sign language. 
Kay has vitiligo, and a lot of the other kids in the village taunt him for the vitiligo saying his mom must have infected him as well or call him moldy :(. 
Paul is fairly well off being one of the only (and the best) black smith in the town and he has a pretty good reputation so he eventually gets hired by the royal family. 
To the village, the royal family is thriving and benevolent to them, the eldest prince (he’s like 28), Prince Patryck (ueueue see where i'm going with this…?) shows his face to the village every so often to keep morel up and help settle disputes.
Paul was charged to make a suit of armor for the prince, something for his inevitable coronation to be king. The two spend a lot of time together and become fast… ehe friends. (wink wink)
And that's where i left off in the fic! I did draw some stuff for it but i cant find it sorry!!
heres a link for anyone who wants to check it out btw! :D
