Hello and welcome!
This is a question game specifically for talking about characters' physical appearances. Their outfit? Their hairstyle? Their scars? An accessory they always wear or a sword they always carry? You get the idea.
15/02/2019:
To help clarify what kinds of questions are allowed in this game, I've made a list of correct and incorrect examples! Hopefully this should help out anyone who's stuck thinking of a question!
Format example:
Person 1's post: Why does Spike have a necklace of house keys? Edit: Adder got the scar during a criminal job that went a little wrong.
Person 2's post: Where did Adder get that scar from?
You can post IC if you want the next person to question a specific character, or you can post OOC and let them pick for themselves. If you post IC, try to stick to characters that have something noteworthy in their designs - while there's nothing wrong with more plain characters, it can be hard to think of an interesting question about them.
-Rules-
1. Stick to the theme of the game. Your post must include at least one question related to the character's design. You are allowed to ask non-design questions as extras.
2. Don't be rude or passive-aggressive towards other people or their characters in any way.
3. Wait for at least 3 people to post before you go again (unless over 12 hours have passed since the last post, then it's fair game for anyone).
4. All characters must have at least one, SFW art piece. This means characters with no art, or only 18+/filtered art, cannot be posted. You are allowed to skip people if they have no art or only 18+/filtered art.
5. Please do not post the same character repeatedly. This is to lessen repetition of the game.
6. Do not skip people (unless they're breaking Rule 4). Even if the above user has blocked you, that is not valid reason for skipping them.
I actively monitor the thread for rule-breaking, but if you think I missed something, please PM me and let me know.
If you break rules: Depending on the severity of the situation, I may either PM you with a warning or immediately ban you from the game. Regardless of severity, you can be banned if you repeatedly break rules.
So for https://toyhou.se/1041358.claudia Claudia, was there any special reason you chose the flowers you did? Were they chosen for different reason in and outside of her world? Why those specific colors?
! Please pick a character with this tag https://toyhou.se/Almondlover/characters/tagged:top%20dogs/folder:all
For your character Ribs, is he wearing a fur coat kinda thing or is it apart of his feathers/fur? Also, is that an eye on his chest or a necklace or a clip..?
[Sorry for slow reply; I just got an ineternet connection out here in the middle of goddang nowhere-]
Psicadalia does not look exactly how she appeared in that dream; I just remember ~3 mouths oddly stuck on, three eyes, and her fur being a light-pink color with hot-pink spots... She was also in one of those very psicadelic-esk dreams; thus her name.
Her design has obviously been changed quite a bit from the original.
Both mouths are able to eat food; they don't currently serve two different purposes; I might hange that in the future.
Although she has wings, she cannot fly. She can glide a bit, and they do help break her falls.
You said she came to you in a dream. In the dream, did she look exactly how you've drawn her, or did you change/add anything?
She has two mouths; does each mouth serve a different purpose or are they just both for eating?
Can she fly?
Ana was originally made as an adoptable character, so I didn't think about her powers when I first created her. After I decided to keep her myself, I realised I needed to think of a reason why she carries a pocketwatch around her neck, so that's where her ghost-summoning power and the watch being enchanted came from. As for why it's a pocketwatch... I just thought it looked cool. XD
Claim !
callilux I know it's a pretty basic question but I wanted to know where you got the ideas for this character's design, It looks really great and pretty unique so I'd love to know how you get ideas for such designs !
To the person below I'll go with mori-kun this time :3c I'm curious to see what question you will have, maybe you'll learn new thing about this cutie ♥
wooferdill well it's pretty simple: I love smol characters and I thought having a character with a rather bad attitude being tiny would make them even funnier, so here's Morita: he's a rebel but he's really short so nobody can take him seriously 
What drove the decision to make Morita so teeny? 4'8" is very small! :0
@SouthEndRay nnnnnnnope :'/ She's a half-orc — specifically half mountain orc. She only saw the ocean for the first time a couple days ago.
Why did you choose the colors that you did for him (the orange, green, and pink)? Is it just because you liked the colors, or is there some sort of meaning behind them? :0c
How did you come up with the idea (and design) for her little spirit friends?
Anyone from Catband is fine to ask about: https://toyhou.se/hedgemaze/characters/order:images/folder:all/tagged:catband
unlike all of ur human OCs in the catband tag, ulysses isn't a human! is there a reason u made him a kelpie as opposed to a regular human like the others?
Actually a bunch of the characters in the comic's freak show are fantasy creatures (Mephisto is a dragon; Roger is a unicorn; there are mermaid sisters). It's a holdover from the 2007 version of the comic, which was more of a parody/satire in an urban fantasy sort of setting-- there were yetis and robots too, among others. I doubt I'll keep them like that in the new comic, but their non-human designs are fun to draw (I was mostly motivated to redesign their creature forms for Toyhouse and for Artfight, either for me to have that fantasy sandbox to dip into when I want, or for other people to have the option of something different from my normal humans to draw).
He's a kelpie because he originated as a very old horse character I had when I was younger, and kelpie both matched his coloring and made sense as the pair to a unicorn character; kelpies also traditionally can transform into a human form to lure their prey. And I thought it was funny to make a kelpie be a lifeguard on Coney Island, lol
is it ever difficult drawing his tattoos bc he has so many of them it looks impossible to remember their placement haha
They don't even have a canon design yet; I just draw vines. Someday I'll make him a legit ref with a set design, I guess. I'm not really big on details that have to be perfect.
and is there a reason u picked a black and gold colour theme? is it to contrast roger's more pastel appearance?
He was always black and gold, back when he was just a horse character. I did really like the contrast, in size, colors, and demeanor, of pairing him with Roger the unicorn, though (who was also a childhood character; they weren't initially tied to each other at all).
Thanks for the questions! c:

yeah! the little droplets hanging from his horns are all small sapphires and he has two on each side!
his wings are actually specifically designed for him to swim with as they're made from a slightly different material than typical leather-y dragon wings :0 they're more of a webbed fin-like material and i deliberately draw them to appear more fin-like than wing-like (tho idk if i'm able to portray that correctly) - and no ! he can't actually fly w/ them bc the material is much to thin and lightweight to hold his bodyweight and they're very much only for swimming
the white paint thing - yeah he thinks it makes him look intimidating and cool and absolutely refuses to believe that it makes him look like a dickhead
he things it's 'cool' because it's like a mask in a sense and masks are cool right? but it's even cooler bc it's not a traditional mask! though once again, he doesn't see how dumb it looks
Ginger - What are those little things hanging from his horns? Are they some sort of jewellery? As he's a water dragon, are his wings used to help him swim (kinda like penguins) or can he fly as well? Why does he think that wearing white paint across his face makes him 'cool'?
For Ethereal's species markings are quite common, though markings of her complexity are rarer. The diamond patterning along her back was inherited from her father, while her other markings (shoulders, face, etc.) came from her mother. And nope, they don't have any special significance. They're just natural body markings.
Are the markings on Ethereal genetic? Do they have any significant meaning?
Lyrus' right hand:
When he was around sixteen years old, Lyrus found a place that could produce moving tattoos. While not exactly super innovative in the year 3016, it wasn't really common, either. Nipping his father's credit card, he went in and paid for a full sleeve. It's of a lush underwater landscape, filled with fish and gentle waves reminiscent of old Japanese artworks. The waves move and the fish swim around his arm and around the vibrant underwater trees, which dance with the waves. He often finds it relaxing to watch if he is stressed or anxious, though he'd never admit to it out loud.
