Kind of Eery

Post by Dalak Lutra »

I just realized something...There are slim to no Badger characters out there that I know of....Any particular reason that I'm missing for why?
Because I was thinking on making a little character of me own, and I was thinking of the animal populace amongst the society as I know it and I came to a dead silence when I arrived to Badger.
The curiosity is killing me!~~~~

Check any artwork by anyone who has read a few Redwall books...
Now, you want a creature that hasn't had a lot of press, try a muskrat or a spider monkey.

There are probably more hybrid porcuskunks out there than spider monkeys.

Well thats probably one of the reasons why I'm thinking badger, because I have read a *ahem* few red wall books...not like I own the seires or anything *thumb twidling*
But again I'm thinking more of the online community. Oh yeah any links to some redwall fan's art pages perhaps?

I own the entire Redwall series. Read it. Still read it.

Proud of it!

Yeah, Redwall is really something.
It's gotten to the point where everytime I hear the word 'badger,' I think "Eulalia." And, unfortunately, "mushroom."

Also, if anyone was reading the Watership Down thread, I think badgers appear there as well. They're called "lendri," I think?

Perhaps I'll check that out later, but seems the only source of badger art is either a flash vid, some time of searching for an artist, or my redwall series(which I"m probably going to go look through). :P

A few come to mind, most especially

http://werevarmint.timduru.org/wvfrigreg.htm

Looking around, there's also Caernath, a character in an online RPG:

Ia dmit, however: That seems to be about it. There are a few more on FurryMUCK, perhaps, but not much more than a few.

Yours truly,

The ever-searching,

I do believe so... I'll also check that out aswell. Thanks for the Reminder BlasTech. I remember watching that back when I was in junior high I believe it was. Hah, the good ol' days...Those days'r gonna seem a whole lot better when I"m out in the world.
EEK, Costumes~...I'm sorry but costumes are a bit to much for me.... Find that a little creepy.. :o
Hmmm Caernath has an interesting style, not quite the style I was thinking of but it does help in my thought process. Thanks Wanderwolf

Wind In The Willows has a badger. I love that story.

I was going gring up Carried by the Wind also with the raccoon-Badger-Bengal Tiger hybrid as the leading character.

I have read the Redwall books and have 1major complaint - ferrets and weasels are always the bad guys D:

Ferrets and weasels are noble creatures - it is mice who are the harbingers of plague and disease. :evil:

However I can say one thing nice about mice - they are tasty with a little Tabasco sauce.
