Introduction
Tecoa's pronouns are She | They. She's blind. The vest is not optional.
Can be drawn with anyone. Best friend: Ulvano.
FERAL: Average size for an American Mink. She should not be portrayed as anything other than feral.
Personality & interests
She thinks she's bigger than what her size is. Born blind but that doesn't affect her at all outside of needing help in crowded places (mostly because she's small rather than blind). Sometimes will bump into things and say "Hey, don't move in front of me!".
Tecoa uses a clicking sound called "echolocation" (like bats) to move around and detect objects or people. She can see a little, very blurry light and shadows that are near her.
Likes the texture of fur. She loves toys, especially those that are for chewing.
Dislikes using the gray band on her vest because it makes her feel like she can't use the echolocation properly.
ITEMS & DESIGN
The circus has certain dates where they do themed acts (like Halloween, Easter, etc) and she'll use a shirt or something to be in theme as well. She loves being dressed.
Uses a blue vest with "Blind" on each side of it. It may include a large bent gray band made out of plastic that will protect her so she feels what she's bumping into instead of bumping into it directly.
Tecoa has 30 markings and their design is not symmetrical.
