We've probably done this before, but if so, it's been a while, and I don't really care. And so, with that brief non sequitur, we reveal to your gaze the following gold-plated question:

If you could be a sort of anthropomorphized animal (in other words, a cat/human, horse/human, dog/human, etc), what would it be, and why?

Bird/human
To have wings and a birds head would look really cool, and travel would be faster and cheaper.

I cant make up my mind here... Either a crow - They can fly, they seem to be rather smart, and they look noble even when picking food out of a trash can.

Or... some kind of longlived turtle... I dont know my biology too well, but isnt it some kind wich life expectancy exceeds that of a human?

As figured by my DF charactor, I'd be a cat/human. I'm allergic to cats, but I love the wild animals: tigers, panthers, leopard... My old bedroom is decorated leopard print, and some *very* good friends invested a few hundred dollars in a large white tiger painting for me.

Besides, the cat ears and a tail would just be so sexy.

Dotti - In some countries, Cows are considered sacred. Hence the term "Holy Cow".

I'd be a butterfly... No one ever suspects the butterfly...

I would have to go with the horse/human. My first exposure to centaurs was in lewis' chronicles of narnia, and I thought they were so interesting.

@AC, I believe that Dot said 'crow', not 'cow'. However, if you have photographic evidence of a cow looking noble while picking food out of a trash can then I am prepared to appreciate your point of view .

As for me, I would like to be a turtle too. However, as you may have guessed, I have a strong spiritual affinity with frogs, my natural brothers in the animal kingdom..or maybe an owl...I'm not entirely sure.

Oh, I thought he said "cow". I was wondering what he meant when he said that they could fly...

LOL @frogus

Well if you want me to pick a specific bird:
1)Bluejay
2)Crow
3)Kestrel
4)Almost any hawk

All of the above are good

Well if you want me to pick a specific bird:

Did anyone say they did want you to pick a specific bird?

BTW @Fable - are there any exciting psychological implications of the choices we make?

Indeed I did, Although regardless dreams I think a cow is very close to what I am now... Doesnt do much save eat food all the day...

A cat would be my third choice for this reason. lynx ears in particular makes me drool... should they be on a human that is...

Well I was thinking that the forum could use some enlightenment by my wise words.

I dont know where cat falls on my list
Aligator would be second choice
Any other big lizard would be third
Then I guess a cat of some sort.

Hmm

I'd say human/horse for the obvius male improvement... but that isnt my final answer.

My final answer would have to be a Moleman. Half human Half mole, kinda that creepy guy who lives in the basement of the burnt down apartment complex. Secretly I'd burrow to banks and such and be a world infamous thief... the mole man. Yeah.

This is Fable, not CE... I think we should be safe...

@Dotskij: Some large tortoises can live considerably longer than humans, up to 150 years is recorded, but it is thought they can be up to 300 years old, perhaps more.

I don't really want to mix physiological features with another species, I think my sex appeal would suffer. Functionally speaking rather than aestethically, I'd like to have albatross wings so I could fly like them!

LOL! You'd obviously be popular at parties. I was thinking along similar equine lines, but more for the power and grace of it all. Maybe that, or a cat hybrid of some sort.

Roachman....I would survive anything.

Plus, you already run under the floors and between walls... Added the fact that you seem to be immune to all of my attempts to mace you away...

Don't be jealous just cause I can avoid walls
