Description

This is my character for the Vesper Facility Character Contest
Here are some details...

Name: Humble
Reasoning: More a nickname, he's a little aloof and docile compared to others
Gender: Male
Species: American Mink a.k.a Neovison vison
Use in Lab: Species used mainly for Fur, occasional use in experimentation mainly with regards to practice dissection or machine testing (most often after animal is dead)
Nature of Escape: Used slimline frame to sneak through feeding hatch that was improperly secured and he'd been pulling and biting at for a while to test weakness
Intelligence Level: Medium is the right sort of area, able to figure some basic
Social Nature: Solitary mostly, but not above social interaction
Area of Residents: Varies - most often found in tunnels
Religion: N/A
Occupation:
Other information:
- Ear notch from cut on sharp old wire during escape
- Eye scar from a nasty run in with a dog whilst in the tunnels
- Humble was aware of the results of hands going into cages and grabbing so has a natural biting reaction
- Tends to prefer mollusk hunting in the dank areas over full-on predation
- Easily intrigued by strong odors
- Rather confident in actions unless disturbed
- Other mink see him as aloof or a bit mad
- Professes to prefer bird flesh to any other
- Owns a satchel for his catches given to him by a primate with an interest in shellfish
- Considered "old"
- Does not like algae wine, but will not refuse it

I LOVE MY MUSTELIDS! I was hoping for a chance to draw a mink and I'm very proud of Humble.

Humble is a really wonderful character. I didn't tell people how they placed in the contest, but I wanted to let you know that Humble did very well (*Kaylink even specifically singled him as one of her top picks). His design is both unique but also not too overly complicated, and it's pretty rare to get a character that is a good balance of the two. I loved his little bio, too! Poor fellow seems to have had a hard life, but he's such a survivor. :D
