Patron-Decided Romance - What Species?

I believe it is called an Enfield, correctly

Cedric L.

A pig tf would be delightful ^^

Lil fox thing

UUUUUUUNICORN!! <a href="https://i.imgur.com/4K3E3ZK.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://i.imgur.com/4K3E3ZK.jpg</a>

Threyon

A fox, there are many in scotland too ;D

Latio

Birb?

definitely Pig or bear TF

JorkRod

I love the idea of there being a dragon.

Naomi

i like the idea of a trader coming to town but i think a fox should be in there. they are clever, intelligent, and cunning. that fits a fox to the T.

I'd really like to see more barnyard animals! So chicken, pig or sheep get my vote!

NSFWsAnonymous

If you are looking for diversity, you can go with a Northern Crested Newt or a Bilberry Bumblebee. A newt can be a good compromise for those who want to see a dragon; Moreover, you could add a twist where everyone mistake the character as a dragon.

OmuYasha

you misspelled Seinfeld

GREG STEELE

I will think more for a fox sight that are prevalent in Scotland and very active

Excellent

Shorewood

Hmmm, what about Black grouse ? We need more feathers :)

blind.fiction

Something like this was already the plan :B

Wat

Personally I vote for dragon, buuut if you want to be different and creative you could do the Nuckelavee demon from Scottish lore!

Fordrin

Definitely need to toss a vote in for dragon there!

LandLurker

Dragon dragon dragon. Or gryphon. Either are great. Should fly either way

Nobody going for a Selkie? As a different kind of shapeshifter / traveler they can be a new source of information, tricks, and conflict. If I was to vote for a bird, I'd probably go for an owl. I always figured a dragon would have a tough time that far north. Too cold.

Wheelwright Pony

Absolutely seconding (thirding, fourthing?) the cause of a bird. Golden Eagle seems a bit too obvious with it being the national bird and all... uh... Scottish Crossbills maybe... or Rook (albeit, I dunno how exciting crows are for some people)... Kingfisher are pretty ones... and I guess Owls are always pretty solid visually/thematically. Well, depending on your existing theme; they've got cultural baggage. The Merlin's kind of adorably small for a falcon if you wanted someone with a built in complex maybe.

Error 204 No Content Found

Mimicking a lot of what I see here, but: Bat, Pig, Bird, or Unicorn all feel great Otherwise a dragon works too ;)

Drek the Bat

A flying one for sure for variety. Golden Eagles are big, beautiful birds, and native to northern Scotland. You also have Osprey's that live there as well. I'd be okay with Dragon with so many legends around them as well.

Sean Parker

Wyvern's are just Dragons that left 2 of their legs at home!

Zod

I'd say griffin or some kind of bird, since they fit the theme and aren't already represented at least to some degree. A unicorn would be neat, but would be stepping on Hazel's hooves. I like foxes, but we've already got a wolf. Kind of meh on dragons just because they're so overdone.

Rhawkas

I vote a dragon, though most would just leave it at that I would suggest an eastern dragon with the option to romance a woman from out of town, though she thinks her change is actually a blessing, if the eastern dragon doesn't work then a western dragon could work and they can be a princess that usually hides from her father so they won't mistake her for a monster.

luigidragon54

Fox or Cù-Sith

Since the responses have been so numerous and varied I'd like to suggest that the dev's pick out the top five most popular choices and have a second round of voting on them.

Shorewood

I second both the unicorn and dragon ideas.

Dragons are overrated. How about a Wyvern?

KDhynamo

How about a griffin :)

Pheagle

dragon, fox, or border collie

Scuro Lupo

I'll go with fox... Yes, I'm boring like that!

Silberlynx

DANG I don't think I've ever seen this many post, this fast... I'm sure you know what my first suggestion is, but if you want a suggestion besides dragon: griffon Cu Sith (Dog) bear fox Unicorn

Zod

I like the dragon lass we saw for the April Fools update, but I'll take another dragon or avian as well!

Rastan

best idea

Little Librarian

Some type of Dragon or Snake

i vote rabbit

Silver Tongue

Need some sort of reptile in there for us scalies, so plausible for Scotland; we're talking a dragon ^.=.^

AnnoyedDragon

agreed!

GREG STEELE

otter!

GREG STEELE

During the Ice Age, there was a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Ice_Age_leopard" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">species of leopard</a> similar to the Asian snow leopard that lived in the British Isles, which are now extinct. How about one of those?

CobaltOwl

What a great idea!

Art of GI

Balgair, the most mythical creature of them all, a true Scotsman!

Art of GI

Red squirrel would make the most sense. Badger would be another good option, but yeah, Red Squirrel for #1.

Damo

A bat

Redace83

I've heard that, too, but it sounds like a load of crock.

H

Well, their seems to be a huge push for Dragons. you could also have Selkis and Kelpies, though that might conflict with Grace and Hazel. Scotland also has a Badger population, and Wild Boars I think. just throwing some out there I havn't seen in the comments yet.

Reginald Trout

I will list 4 in the order i would like to see most first Cave Bear, Wolverine, Great Bustard, and last Tree Frog thank you for providing people this opportunity.

Isac Arellano

dragon

Little Librarian

I would vote for squirrel cause super cute or a stag to seduce a tg'd player as I think that the beautiful devs have chosen that for the players species.

Shorewood

For real animals There is the Scottish Wildcat , otter or red squirrel.

Liane Rabbitfangs

How about either a brownie (faerie) or a Ciuthach (A cave dwelling spirit localised to the Highlands.) for mythical creatures.

Liane Rabbitfangs

Polecat! Would say Skunk but those aren't native to Scotland.

Thed Preston

Either a (purple) dragon or a (silver) fox.

Some Foxy

Lol right!

littleironman

Skunk!

Werenimal

My vote would be for a bird of some kind maybe an owl of sorts.

Austin Judes

I'll go ahead and suggest four: Pig or Chicken, for the whole farming countryside theme, an Adder snake...for a bit of danger and because dragon is the only reptile I see here, (Sad really), and finally....to go out on a limb.....How about a Dryad? Could go the full tree route too.

Russell Thorne

Oh I forgot pig, pigs are always great

nfreak

VIXEN! yes it is totally overdone, but I don't care and I will fight anyone to the death who challenges me. Also their is plenty of that species up in Scotland. FIGHT ME!

Cischiral

My vote goes Dragon

Eric Strause

Fairies too!

Shadow

A Dragon or a Fox. There are stories of them shapeshifting in most eastern cultures, so it's not a far fetched for either of them. Enfield and elves too. Or an actual changeling. Also, called it on Hazel being a shifter. Horse proves it.

Shadow

...enfield…

Cedric L.

Dragon

Durgonz!

Paul Revere

I hear one of the artists on the game is pretty well known for their dragon girls and have wondered why the game doesn't have one :V

Wat

Prefer either dragon or unicorn with an owl or squirrel being close second

Marcus

Was about to say the same thing lol

Kendio

What about a selkie?

AuroraWolf130513

Hen would be nice. As would a Fox. A Dragon might be to close to your Sea Serpent, but I would like to see that as well.

Tmothy B. Ross

How about one of the native bat species, like a brown long-eared bat, or a Leisler's bat?

Kaerea Shine

The European pine marten is pretty common in northwestern Scotland

Sam wolf

Hen or pig might be fun. Also like Squirrel or otter

littleironman

Fox or squirrel

Will Schwab

i like the sound of Otter , unicorn or dragon

Dragonsthrall

I would like to see a bear, dragon, otter or griffin.

Volixsis

It's pretty cliche, but surely there must be fox characters in Scottish folklore. Also I second the otter suggestions. An otter character could be very cute.

Edward Dubois

A unicorn! Can’t have the game set in Scotland and not have Scotland’s national animal

siobhan

Red Squirrel would be cute and the selkie, a seal-changeling, might fit with the theme. Beavers, too. Some kind of bird like a puffin would stand out from all the others already in the game.

Tiggs~~

An otter?

Lord Lorac

Dragon girl. Absolutely hands down.

Darkwalker

My thoughts move toward either soft and fluffy pawed mammal or super adorable that aren't quite so much like the other ones already in game. So maybe ones like a skunk, mouse, otter, squirrel, ferret or bear, *maybe too close to owlbear?* or exotic like a tanuki, they are master shape shifters after all! . While I like fox, I think it's too close to wolf, and dragon is cool but a lot like sea serpent.

Guardianslade

I would say Bat would be great but I'd also be into an Otter or a Squirrel.

nfreak

How about a bat? OMG! Who would've guessed I would've suggested that. (or a durgon)

Kullax

Moose girl? or maybe some type of bird (too bad harpy's aren't lore friendly)

a Jaybird. Or if it needs to be more native to Scotland a cute puffin. :D

Sunblaze

I want to see an avian interest like suggested earlier by H or an harpy like Scott suggested

Keatan Royce

Yea i would want bat features

Tyler Green

Gryphon or Dragon

Sheeron

an otter would be fantastic

GREG STEELE

otter ill say

Corbynprower

Bird or harpy-ish creature :)

Scott

Red Squirrel!

Dragon

Satorui

Though generic my vote would be on Foxes! I did research this...slightly...and there are notes of Celtic myths regarding foxes as shapeshifters and as guides who know the trees (nature) well. I know the most common theme people have with foxes are based off their cunning and trickster nature...but maybe there can be a fox character that tries to go against stereotype. Just spitballing ideas I suppose :-P

TimidTabby

Griffin, Gargoyle, Goblin, Gremlin, or Dragon would work for me! :D

James Parsons

The thing about a vampire is that it can still be any other base race... unicorn vampire? technically possible... if anyone could pull it off correctly, I bet it would be Little Napoleon

A sheep :)

PsychoShy

A siren or vampire would be neat.

Tyler Green

There is a real life history of an Japanese entrepreneur visiting scottland in 1920 to learn how to make whiskey. It can be worked with :D

Golden eagle, was a good idea. But so are dragon and fey... hmmmm a pine marten... or maybe a badger?

BurntCypher

jordan

Scottish dinosaur, that is all.

jordan

Ferret! :D because they're flexible adorable catsnakes!

Reaper

A red squirrel or perhaps a golden eagle?

Spotts1701

I humbly suggest either a unicorn or a dragon, for reasons that should be completely obvious for those who know me.

REDACTED

An actual Fey.

I would love to see a kitsune romance! Unfortunately, I don't think Scotland has a cultural counterpart to kitsune so it would be out of place...

Shuual Ashe

Dragon

D-man

I'm sympathetic to Tharkis' call for unicorns (very Scottish) and dragons (mildly Scottish), as well as NovaMoose's for otters (more Irish, but still hella cute); however, I most relate to Saradi's call for things that fly. How about a gryphon or something like a great spotted woodpecker?

H

Kitsune!

I have three mythicals: Kelpie, Each Uisge (both kinda horselike ;)) and Selkie. For a normal animal a seal girl would be nice (what a Selkie basicly is)

OPjack

Fox or Dragon

Lord Zero 1606

How about a bird? Avians are so far missing on the list.

Saradi

Dragon

ccateni

For the mythical associated with scotland and europe, Unicorns and Dragons !

Tharkis

Fox or a Red Kite

Squirrel

Vulpes Sciurus

What about Selkies or Loch Ness Monster?

Tharoks

Púca

Spacix

Fox, Fox, Fox ,fox! XD

Lunatico Ursus

Donkey? :3

Paula Braydi

We need a vulpine romance!

Shuual Ashe

I would suggest otter. They are native to Scotland and are pretty unique compared to the other species in the story.

Some kind of big bird would be cool, like a swan or a hunting bird. Not to many good bird TF's out there.

Dire wolf!

Shiny Umbreon

Yeah I was just thinking fox

Ryan Shoemaker

Fox

Rye black

Maybe a mythic animal from the Scottish legends?
