@starblush Thank you for the questions, and good luck with your search for characters!
@Discordia - Don't see many otter characters around ;v; That gal has such a pretty design!
@leverage - Congrats on the art—it's absulutely stunning. I'll definitely check that artist out!

How do you go about designing characters? What do you start with? Colors, a personality?When designing characters, I usually start with a color palette, then I determine what the character will do, and based off of that, I add markings and accessories. Once I've finished designing it, I give it a backstory, personality, etc.
What's your favorite name for a character you've ever seen? (Yours, or someone else's)Honestly, I don't really give my characters 'human' names—I usually give them simpler/more natural names, and/or names that have meanings behind them. Some of my favorite simple names are Nyx, Juniper, and Eclipse. I rarely give my characters meaningful names, though.
Show me a character of yours from an unusual species! Something besides feline and canine. Like, does anyone have any mice?Oh boy, I have a few unusual characters. I have a
skunk,
seal, kangaroo rat, goat, and
Honduran white bat. I'm also working on a ton of new characters (because I don't need/want any more dogs/cats), including a badger, wolverine, bear, chameleon, possum, raccoon, sugar glider, brush-tailed possum, binturong, pine marten, toucan, cow, Gila monster, snail, sheep, chinchilla, hawk, and a flamingo. They're all works in progress right now.
Here's a picture of my goat; she doesn't have a name yet. Art & design by Ittam.

Yesterday, I received
this custom bat character from castlevania on here/Sadbuhu on dA. I already love him so much. <3 I'm currently looking for art of him and a few other characters. I have a mainlist rat and bunch of rares+ and store pets to give in exchange. Please PM me if you're interested! Thanks!
