Anywhere will do once again. I'm not picky.
-Appearance-
Is this concise enough?
-Personality-
Gray is a strong leader, who knows what to do in an emergency situation. He doesn't' draw attention to himself, but will make his presence known if it seems like no ones noticed him. He's calm, but can get easily excited sometimes if the conversation goes to a topic he's fond of. He's laid back, and can easily go from a leading position to a laid back follower; go-with the flow, type of thinking. He's precise in anything he does, making sure he knows how to do it properly before he tries. He'll also think out his sentences before he says them, liking to make sure he doesn't offend anyone if the topic is sensitive. He doesn't like fighting, and will often place himself between two arguing parties to act a medium.
-Other Notes-
He has a fondness for beanies, having a different one for everyday of the week ranging in a variety of colors. He even has one for parties, which has small streamers on it. His collar is black, with a silver tag that looks like a sled. He was the head of a dog sled team in Alaska before his family moved. They've never made it in first place, but have had 3rd a couple times, and even got 2nd once or twice. He also keeps a small survival guide on him, claiming it's for those "Never saw this coming" moments.

E: 10 "Hm, three hours isn't a long enough run... think I'll head out again."
C: 8 "Hey everyone! How's it going?"

L: 2 "Hm.. maybe next time."
"He doesn't like fighting, and will often place himself between two arguing parties to act a medium." + Luck: 2
> I take his 10 Endurance is from getting all those stray punches/bites/claws? ^w ^. I'm just concerned if you are sure with the Luck 2 though, this would make him fail at almost anything he tries like for example: "Gray throws a baseball to the other dog but a strong wind blew against him and the ball smacked Gray in the face.". Of course this is an extreme situation but with my understanding of the SPECIAL stats, it follows a parabolic graph and low stats can be quite extreme.
>> Seriously however, his endurance is from being a sled dog. True?
"He also keeps a small survival guide on him, claiming it's for those "Never saw this coming" moments." + Luck: 2
> I believe he had plenty of those moments. |3
You'll need a color too. Preferably one that is quite easily read
not just seen. |3

Species: Siamese
"No, I'm not evil. That Disney movie ruined it for our kind. Uh, you like movies?"
Age: 5
"All right, I guess once more go at the arcades wouldn't hurt. Anybody want to dance?"
Accessories/Appearance: His coat is a fine splash of orange and yellow, and white. His face color is mostly orange. His tail color is mostly white with yellow splotches. There is a brown tip at the end of his tail. He is often not seen without a pair of circular, silver lined sun glasses on his eyes or head. He often likes to wear a belt with a real, metal, practice fencing sword attached to it. Though no one has seen him use it, they often get the impression that they'd rather not. His collar is green, with a pair of tiny fuzzy dice dangling from it. He also wears a fedora.
Personality: Although he is rather shy, he does want to make some new friends, but doesn't like a big crowd. He is also a rather generous, wealthy individual. He own's a chain of nerd centered stores called La' Fare. He also has a system for helping out needy individuals known as the post-it. He is often mis-judged by his wealth and has been trying to over come that by dressing plainly.
The post-it system: Works like so, go in his store, pull a book from the shelf. Then sit in a chair and read it for a while. Then scribble a request on a post it note and stick it in the shelf where you got the book from. During closing, Rev, or a clerk, will go through the store cleaning. If a note or notes are seen, they are collected and given to Rev. If Rev can't decide on a specific case, he'll roll a pair of dice to decide. He then tosses the rest of the notes, and waits for the next days requests. Persistance and need is more likely to get picked.

Store: The store is the size of an average mall partition. It is a 5 story building with the fifth floor being used as a studio apartment by the Fla family. It is a fairly new store and just had it's grand opening a week ago. The stores departments are divided as such.
1st floor: Books/Coffee shop.
2nd floor: Music/Movies
3rd floor: Comics/Manga/Figurines/Collectibles
4th floor: Video games
5th floor: Family apartment
Residence: Other then the studio apartment, the Flas currently have no other home. However, they are building a rather upscale log cabin out in the woods into which they will move in once it is finished.
Neighborhood: Verde Grove
I might just post every once in a while. And often enough if Rev is in something and to keep things moving. If that's all right.

Inconsistency: "Although he is rather shy..." & his Appearance and Accessories.
> I don't see how he could be shy. Usually those who stray from the normality of appearances are very proud of how they look. I might change my mind on this depending on how you define "shy" though.
"He is also a rather generous, wealthy individual. He own's a chain of nerd centered stores called La' Fare"
> Pets are like sub-humans in Verde Grove, they can have jobs, but they can't own businesses. Wealthy pets just means wealthy owners, they can be spoiled, given large allowances or driven from point-to-point, but that's just the thing I'm almost NOT allowing into Verde Grove. It is a rustic city branching out from a highway, the type of city you go out to and smell the fresh air, to see the beauty nature, to get away from the worries of cops and robbers and experience the fear of wolves and bears. This is no place for a rich person unless they are retiring to a simple life.
Also, Wealthy = Rich and I'm not very nice when it comes to rich.
The post-it system.
> I like the idea and I wouldn't mind it if only:
1. He was less rich and would actually be making up some ingenious way of solving the problems. He has 10 stats in Intelligence, he should be able to find solutions easily with that.
2. You have better stats in Agility, Strength and Endurance, they're all below average. What are you helping?
3. I knew what these problems are. I'm not going to put a genie in a pot into Verde Grove.
4. Verde Grove needs a Batman.
"He is often mis-judged by his wealth and has been trying to over come that by dressing plainly."

"He is often not seen without a pair of circular, silver lined sun glasses on his eyes or head. He often likes to wear a belt with a real, metal, practice fencing sword attached to it."
"He also wears a fedora."
> Ehhhhh. . .
no.
"The store is the size of an average mall partition. It is a 5 story building"
> No. Malls or any tall establishments does not fit very well into the neighborhood. If you want a store like this then you have to lower your floor count by either shrinking your stock size or expanding your floor area, but the second option might make your building too big and I'll jump on that as well.
>> Or you can give me what you mean by "average", I'll decide if I will or will not allow a construction of that height depending on the lot size. Judging by the contents however, I'm already falling in to the Pit of No again.
"1st floor: Books/Coffee shop."
> I'm not going to say that the people of Verde Grove don't have the time to sit around and sip their coffee but I highly doubt they would spend eight times the price of what they could easily prepare at home.
"2nd floor: Music/Movies"
> I do miss the generations of tapes, though why do I get the strange vibe that I'm missing something?
"3rd floor: Comics/Manga/Figurines/Collectibles"
> Errrr... Okay?
"4th floor: Video games"

"However, they are building a rather upscale log cabin out in the woods into which they will move in once it is finished."

May I just ask though?

"Species: Siamese"
Cat? I'm not really sure what Siamese this is.
*looks up* Uhhh. . . Right, don't take any of my comments the wrong way but Rev is just too Bruce Wayne for Verde as of now.

Quote:
Name: Leon Isador
Species: Cat: Chartreux: Male
Age: 4 in Human 14 in Cat
Neighborhood: Verde Grove
Appearance:
He has very very very dark brown fur which looks black with no sun on it, He has a dark Purple beret on most the time and has a backpack on most the time. he wears a very messy open top t-shirt and on his collar he has a tag of a paintbrush.
History and Personality:
Leon was raised well by his owner since they both moved here from the Alps, he can speak English well even though his owner can't speak it as well as him. He took an interest into art and sculpturing after a Museum trip with his owner and since then he has been training his painting skills, all of his best work is dotted around his house but because he does work with paint he wears a rather messy shirt to keep the paint off which spares time to do what he wants instead of spending that time washing the paint off his fur. He carry's around an Easel, Paint and Chalk in his backpack.
He is very easy to talk to but he can sometimes but not much be annoying but he is a very good friend to those he befriends and even those who he makes enemies out of, he is the type of person to wave away an insult like it never happened. He isn't looking for anybody since he has somebody back in France that he is writing to (much cheaper i think) to. He hopes to one day start to publish his art work but he doesn't want to become famous since he thinks that being famous will just bring on haters and fan clubs. He isn't really scared of anything that is an object and proven, like everybody he has a fear of the supernatural but it is stronger than most people's fear.
Other Notes:
-he has multiple paint brush tags of different colours depending on his emotions in the morning.
-he is teaching his owner English bit by bit starting long before the move (so his owner can still be part of the community) but as of now they communicate in French

> Do note that money in Verde is more of a medium for trading everyday items, and bartering is not uncommon in Verde. Services are rare and there are no malls and while there is a bank, it's not as flourishing as the banks we have here. Money will not help you a lot with problem solving in Verde, though it does fill your stomach and keep a roof above your head.
i should say he's not in it for the money but more for knowing that his artwork is hanging up somewhere being admired.
is this ok now?
You forgotten to address these concerns.
"He is teaching his owner English bit by bit but as of now they communicate in French"
>You mean to say his owner moved to Verde for a secluded retirement?
Because unless he has a friend in Verde he would find it very hard to live in the community.
>> Is it safe for me to assume that it Leon's owner is either a very silent "smile and wave hi" type person for the moment and/or Leon is the one that's making purchases his owner needs?
Having a rich character in might unbalance the neighborhood quite a bit so I'm just taking precautions with wealth.
> I will need more information on just how wealthy Leon's master actually is before I would even considering giving my approval.
Also you have 43 stats, max is 42.
What do you mean "watch my words"? It's my tongue that I sharpened.
