Description
Actual name is Þjoðrekur, but because DA doesn't allow non basic latin characters in the title I've romanized it. This is a Lelri Raesk, a species by . She somehow conned me into making one. I don't know why or how, but here's the Raesk.

The name is Icelandic for "Theodore", and the Raesk language is supposed to be like Icelandic; but Elkaii hasn't ever really described the differences. I decided to base the color scheme of this thing off of a Louisiana black bear, and the name comes from U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt who while on a hunting trip in Mississippi refused to shoot and kill a black bear. The incident spawned the creation of the teddy bear stuffed animal many children the world over have. The antlers are from a white-tailed deer, another animal native to my home of Louisiana. Like Louisiana the Raesk would live in a swamp. Because of this his legs have become stained with the mud he's had to travel through in his lifetime while the climate has caused his species' usual straight hair to become somewhat matted but not nasty. His only defining feature is a streak of grey hair on the left side of his mane near where his eye socket is. I wanted to adorn his antlers with spanish moss, but I forgot about it. I'll maybe add it later.

I'd imagine his personality to be rather laid back. He's reclusive but not eccentric or entirely antisocial; he just enjoys his peace and quiet.
