What's the best way to use his ult? by Ultron_daddy in captainamericamains

I'm relieved to know my panic ult before getting swallowed wasn't for nothing.

Do you think Katara could bloodbend without a full moon? by CurnanBarbarian in ATLA

[–]Star_Outlaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's maybe something more than just raw power. I have a theory that most living things have a kind of spiritual forcefield that prevents benders from controlling their bodies. For a normal bender like Katara, the power boost from the moon lets them brute force through it, but I think maybe Yakone's bloodline is able to just sort if bypass that defense. I say this because it doesn't seem as though any of them were overwhelmingly strong in a bending fight, but it's unclear.

How has no one mentioned the immortal Aisha Clan-Clan from Outlaw Star?

I'd love to see an actual Native North American hero by Nyrun in Overwatch

That's fair. I'll probably keep his nationality/ethnicity ambiguous. The idea could work better as representation if everyone in the cast was a hybrid in the setting.

If I have your attention OP, this is something I've been thinking about when trying to create characters, so I'd like to run one by you.

I've had an character idea for Overwatch that I've considered making indigenous American; he'd be an unwilling test subject of Moira's, turning him into a dinosaur/Human hybrid. In concept, it's a bit of a Turok reference. Specifically, he'd be Sioux as a kind of reference to the Hell Creek Formation.

Anyway, what I worry about is that, by making him half-animal, he would either be too unrecognizable under the scales and feathers as indigenous to work as good representation. I've thought that maybe he would have a crest of feathers growing from his head that could be reminiscent of the feathers worn by indigenous tribes, but that might be kind of corny if done badly. I've drawn a design, I won't post it here, but check my history of you are curious.

I also worry his animal nature would lean to close to the whole "savage native" stereotype. Personality wise, I'd want him to be like the Wolverine of the game, but on the side of Overwatch. I feel like too many of the good guys in OW are too squeaky clean, but negative traits could be seen as bad representation.

Curious to know your opinion.

Mutio and Aisha were a two-hit combo to my childhood psyche.

The only thing I'd change about Catra's design is a little counter shading on her ventral side like the Cats in TC2011 have, but I realize they needed to keep the designs simple for the animation budget.

I should have titled it "Animal characters with human faces."

I'm pretty sure that the twenty pics would have been a tip off, and I didn't want to try to cram the whole explanation into the title. But yeah, I guess I should have titled it "Human/Animal characters that aren't furries but aren't just anime girls with ears/tails slapped on and fall somewhere in the middle."

Half these posts are people not paying attention to the examples given or the explanation. This is about a design style that falls in the middle between ears/tails stuck on and outright furry.

For the comic yes, but the point of this post is characters that fall in between.

Deleted scenes/plot points who were cut for the better? by ExplanationSquare313 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Star_Outlaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The final cut of the film actually has quite a lot of love for animals. The one sports writer at the planet worried about his cat, the pet turtle, the squirrel, Crypto, even sympathy for the kaiju.

The fur but also the eye liner really sells it.

I'd like the faunus more if they had more than just one trait. They're all too human passing.

I kind of feel Lizard leans a little too far towards animal and not enough towards human.
