Physical Description 

• Very large squishy boi
• Stumpy leggos (plantigrade)
• Octopus arms??
  • Sometimes he doesn't have those, and it's really just because I'm lazy
• Needle nose
• Two rows of spikes from the top of his head to the tip of his tail
• Drags his tail around
• Unconsciously talks too loudly

Personality 

• Giant child
• Easily excited
• Just wants everyone to get along
• Assumes everyone he meets is automatically his friend
• Scared to death of irritating people (especially without realizing it!)
• Too curious for his own good

Likes 

• Lots of friends who definitely like him
• Rivers, oceans, other assorted bodies of water
• Seafood
• Bright happy colors
  • Purple!
• Bubbly, bouncy music (especially remixes from his favorite video games)

Dislikes 

• Wondering whether someone actually likes him or not
• Being tickled
• Running
  • Basically any physical activity besides swimming tbh
• Elitists, know-it-alls
  • Honestly your personality has to be pretty off-putting to get this guy to dislike you

Personal Info 

• Very patient - it takes a superhuman effort to make him genuinely angry
• Regrets any friends he's lost (and/or friendships he didn't exactly maintain)
• Would like to literally live underwater, please
• Freaks out whenever a plant brushes against him underwater and he didn't see what it is and what was thaaaat
• Eats fish...like, so much fish

Trivia 

• I own a fursuit of this guy!  He was made by More Fur Less.  Find him/me at FWA!
• Used to be my main fursona, along with Jeist and Thunder, but I never really used any of them in place of "me," which is the main thing I wanted in a fursona.  Q has usurped their position.
• For a brief period of time, I signed my art "Art By Telos," because I was mainly posting my art on Facebook and my Facebook profile is named after him.
• He used to have this stupid design on his chest that I hated drawing, so I eventually just got rid of it
• Later, I briefly changed his stripes to rings around his limbs, but I didn't like that as much so I changed him back
• Lawful Good

Other Notes: If you want, you can leave his octopus arms off when you draw him.
