Physical description: 2'7" He has a small frame and shoulders. Poor care as a child, the poor health of his mother, being a runt, side effects from medications/spells, his species, and the many illnesses that he's had have all seriously affected his growth, making him less than half the height that he should be. The fur on the upper half of his body is dark grey and patterned with the occasional dark stripe. Most of his left arm is coated in light blue scales, while his right arm, half of his neck, and right side of his face are dappled with scales that shouldn't be there. There are also some scales on his back, but they are not normally visible. His scales lack any kind of pattern. His left hand is that of a Watyr-tread Beholder, but his left is that of a Fyre-glow Beholder with black claws. Oddly enough, both hands have bright red fins speckled with blue in between the fingers. The lower half of his body is covered in tan fur. The base of his tail, mid-section of his tail, knees, and thighs are dappled with a chocolate brown. His left foot has a large white patch that goes past his ankle, while his right foot has white toes. His feet are those of a Fyre-glow Beholder and have cream colored claws. The tip of his tail is also white. Although he is much shorter than he should be, his tail is not. Because of this, it's almost twice his body length. His hair is a rusty red color, being almost a brown at the part. It goes in between his shoulders in length, so he keeps it wrapped up in a ponytail. He has big horns for his age. They are dark brown and have three dark stripes at the base. His ears are fins, the same red and blue as those on his fingers. His left eye is a bright orange with a near neon orange ring surrounding the slit pupil. His right eye, however is a bright blue, a brighter blue ring around the rounded pupil. He is missing all of his incisors, due to having them pulled out.
Personality: Snafu is an affectionate little chatterbox. He loves telling stories to impress others and will often make up newer, more dramatic ones. Despite this, he typically doesn't exaggerate on his stories from real life. He also loves to hear other's stories and will sometimes ask to hear them. He's kind of clingy and will get a little upset if you tell him to back off. He's very excitable and easily impressed. When he's unhappy, he has a habit of complaining a lot and whining often. He'll ease up on the whining if he's given attention, though.
Back story: His parents divorced shortly after he was born. Since his mother was a Conflict, she feared punishment for having a mate and a child. Even though her husband left her, she tried to keep in contact with him. Her fear of being caught was not enough to keep her away from her lover's village. Reuniting with her husband became and obsession, so much so that she often forgot about her child. One day, she forgot him completely, leaving him in the leaf litter outside the village to cry until a beholder found him. They would have just imprisoned him in what beholders call the "Storage Rooms", but the village was in a predicament. They were being threatened by an organization known as the Blind. The company believed that the village was harboring a criminal who held valuable information. Whether the felon was there or not, no one really knew. The beholder that found Snafu came up with the brilliant plan to offer him up as a peace treaty. The Blind were not really amused, but they agreed. Little did the beholders know, it was only to lure them into a false sense of security. Snafu was taken to the Blind's headquarters where he was raised in a small, dark cell. He was not too unhappy since he couldn't remember anything else. The Blind gave him medication and ran a handful of tests on him to try and keep him healthy. When a Clockwork Time-blood broke into the base and freed all of the prisoners, he didn't hesitate to run as far as his legs could carry him, as the thought of being in that cell for one more day was suddenly unbearable.

Hobbies:
Habits: He has a tendency to whine whenever he's unhappy.
Skills:
Weapon: He doesn't use anything more than his teeth and claws. Even those are used sparingly.
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Religion:
Voice: He has the voice of a child, not yet maturing. It's somewhat higher pitched than it should be and he has a tendency to talk very fast, even faster when upset or scared. He also has a tendency to say several small sentences rather than one big one. Contradicting his voice, he has an oddly deep purr that doesn't quite sound like it should come out of something so small.
Kind of clothing: He's most likely to wear short-sleeved shirts and shorts.

Kind of clothing: He's most likely to wear short-sleeved shirts and shorts.
Accessories: He has bandages used to tie his hair back as well as some wound around near the tip of his tail.
Allergies: He has cosmetic allergy. Because of this, any type of make-up will make his throat, nose, and eyes burn, as well as give him a headache and, if it gets on his skin, a rash. Thanks to his skin being sensitive towards these sorts of things most soaps will trigger an allergic reaction. It can also be activated with sunscreen, perfume, toothpaste, and deodorant.
Diet: He will eat pretty much whatever he can get his hands on. He favors baked things such as bread or cookies. He'll eat meat if it's cooked, but never if it's bird meat. He really likes fish, too. He'll eat pretty much any fruits, nuts, or berries, but will always reject vegetables, excepting potatoes.
Languages spoken: Basic
Smells like: Cough medication and hand sanitizer.
Catchphrase:
Quote:
Addictions/obsessions: None
Fears: He's afraid of needles. Just seeing a needle will make his stomach churn and he'll start acting skittish.
Pet peeves: He doesn't like his stomach being squished. Pressing too hard is likely to get you scratched.

Creation date: February 15, 2015. He's actually from a story line separate from the mass RP's plot, but I thought it might be interesting to throw him into this plot since there isn't much to do with his elsewhere. He was originally created to be a background character who could optionally be freed from the Blind's headquarters.
Do they like the name they were given: Yes, but probably only because he doesn't know what it means.
Cat or dog person: Can't he have both?
Do they play any instruments: Nope
Likes: People, making nests from blankets and such, hugs, people playing with his hair, inchworms, fireflies, sunbeams, warm food, warmth in general, cuddling, physical contact, butterflies, stories, fantasy, new things,
Dislikes: Needles, being alone, locked doors, dark rooms, being ignored, birds, cold weather,
Strengths: Fast runner, sensitive hearing,
Weaknesses: Poor immune system, randomly gets fevers all of the time, growth has been majorly stunted, missing all four incisors, weak flame on tail, fire on tail cannot get wet,
Extra: Very touchy-touchy and clingy. Physical contact is important to him, as it makes him feel safer. People playing with his hair will calm him down and eventually lull him to sleep. Although he may not always like it, he is used to being picked up. While he was in captivity, his captors taught him not to struggle, so it's unlikely that he'll injure whoever's picking him up. He doesn't think that he's small. He will give names to every caterpillar he finds. He would have liked to know his parents. Because he doesn't remember them, he often imagines how they might have looked and acted like.
