This is not my character but rather one of my player's characters. They ran the main "Emperor's Penguins" one shot so if you like you may choose to draw them relating to anything within that one shot. (info for one shot at the bottom of this page here) They ran this one shot with: Banter

Like most of his kind, he was raised among the many nomadic caravans which march through cold desert wastes. His family traveled, selling various trinkets and knick-knacks unique to different parts of the region. There were many long trips with harsh, frigid nights. Things such as hunting, scavenging, and navigation were crucial for a decent living. To Qaroqchi, and many like him, home was about more about company and not location.

But with great hardships, greater stresses come with them. Qaroqchi was accused by his fellow travelers of stealing rations and goods from the caravan after a blizzard kept them stranded in the middle of their trail. Unfortunate circumstances such as lost/spoiled goods and unfamiliar Corsac City led to the caravan turning their backs on Qaroqchi, labeling him as “the thief”.

With ties cut with his former wanderers, he trudged down his own path. A lone merchant wasn’t a good prospect for him, especially without the means to hold cargo. So instead he traveled from village to town and city searching for rewarding jobs. Pest control, eavesdropping, bounties- You name it. But occasionally, fall outs with employers or jobs gone wrong would lead to Qaroqchi taking to the empty desert roads once more, in search of somewhere else to be needed.

With many years on this path, Qaroqchi finds his heart and his mind to not be what it once was. From always being surrounded by sounds of familiar chatter, he now finds himself too often with his own thoughts bouncing off one another. “This is no life worth living”, he believes. He hopes that with each job he takes, another door will open in his quest for a “home”. But many failures have made him weary, he can not keep down this path. Maybe the next job will give him a place in the city? Maybe the next one will finally make him rich? Anything to keep him going, even just a little while longer.

Qaroqchi is a Steppe Fox with a stern face and a dirty white fur coat. He wears a dusty, black cargo jacket over a loose-fitting, brown, tattered sweater. His pants are tan, baggy and lined with the occasional discolored cloth patches. His shoes are made of a dark brown leather with visible wear and creases. He has a plaid scarf loosely strewn around his neck and dawns a gray fur cap, resembling an ushanka.

He has ancient eyes. Basic species reference sheet can be found here. Please look at this for common errors people make when drawing this species.

What you could draw them doing:
1. Walking through the tundra.
2. Readying to fire his bow.
3. Or stowing money away in his jacket.
