Mandarin

 

Appearance
     Mandarin is not a certain species of animal. He is a fantasy creature that resembles a very sleek, long reptile.
     He wears a skull of another animal on his head, which also includes horns that curve forwards, similar in shape like that of a ram's horns. 
     His main color is a very bright orange, and there are three brown stripes on his chest. The middle one is the largest, while the stripes on top and bottom are slightly smaller.
     His tail is very, very long. Mandarin's long tail is longer than his entire body and can be used like a whip.
     In some drawings, he has wings. The wings are optional and are not commonly seen on Mandarin anymore. 
     The skull on his head has two gaps where the eyes should be. Mandarin's eyes glow a bright green in those gaps. He is color blind to every color except for shades of orange. 

Mandarin lives on a planet all to himself which is named "Onycia". Onycia is a very barren planet, but around where Mandarin lives, it looks very messy, with everything in a shade of orange. The planet has no life except for Mandarin. Mandarin visits the Earth and takes whatever orange things that he can find, and brings it back to his planet to hoard. Living alone on his own planet can be very boring, and he is often lonely. Fortunately, he is very good friends with Graphyte, and they chat and waste time together.
