I finally got around to touching up and rewriting some bits of this character profile I made for my squirrelly a few years back.

Hope you like it! ^^

Name: Isaac "Izzy" Larson Shadetail Species: Squirrel Sex: Male Fur Color: Brown Hair Color: Light Brown Eye Color: Brown Position: Pure Prey Orientation: Asexual

Personality: Personality Highlights: Izzy is an extremely amiable and kind-hearted squirrel, being very sweet-natured and well-mannored. Kindly and warm, Izzy would sooner trade places with a delivery guy for a cat-inhabited apartment building than upset, hurt, or disturb anyone. A sensitive squirrel, he likes to find beauty in most things and holds very close to his heart the things he cherishes most. He is very loyal and will stand by anyone who is kind to him for as long as they allow him. He has a very altruistic nature and it greatly pains him to see someone hurt or suffering or unhappy, and he would do anything to make them feel better. From inside out, he is a kind and sweet squirrel who would do anything to make others happy.

Personality flaws: Having said that, Izzy is also a remarkably shy and exceedingly timid squirrel as well. Very introverted and bashful, he has a hard time working up the courage to talk to others and usually simply runs and hides when confronted with something as simple as a 'hello'. Uncommonly timorous even to the standard of most prey species, he has a tendency to stutter when he speaks which becomes greatly exacerbated further when he's nervous. He is also very submissive and easily scared, making it uncomplicated to create a high level of fear and obedience with this squirrel. Additionally his timid, friendly, and altruistic disposition is very easy to take advantage of.

Other Information: Izzy's mother and father were both eaten when he was 10 and 15, respectively. This (combined with the fact that his timid nature and somewhat needy personality led to him not having many acquaintances or friends) has led Izzy to live the majority of his life alone and he is usually rather lonely because of it.

He is a talented piano player having taught himself on an old upright piano in the building down the block from where he hides from predators. Despite his nervousness and fear, he would scurry down every day to play the out-of-tune keys.

He is also a bookworm...er...booksquirrel...as he loves to read and spends most if not all of his time hiding with a book in his paws, completely absorbed in the text. He keeps a collection of his favorites by his bed so he can read a passage or two before trying to sleep in an attempt to calm his nerves. Imagining stories and picturing them happening in his head is what keeps the little squirrel sane and he spends a lot of his time lost in the text, completely wrapped up in the story, imagining that he's in a friendlier, warmer place.

He's a very big fan of affection and platonic warmth, loving to be held and cuddled and hugged and petted. Being held is the only thing that can truly calm him down when he's really scared, almost to a fault - he's almost completely unable to resist being snuggled, even if the pred still intends to eat him, making him an even easier target than he already is (if that's even possible). He's very easy to please - he just wants to be cuddled! ^^

His entire life, Izzy has had a fascination with predators and what life as a predator species must be like. He's constantly on the search for more and more books so he can learn as much as he can about it. He's always had a slight obsession for hearing about what life as a real person is like and spends most of his time wondering and thinking of questions he would ask a predator if he had the chance.

Izzy has a little squirrel plushie that his mother gave him when he was a little squirrelly, named 'Puzzle'. It's probably his most prized possession and he can usually be seen cuddling it and playing with it; it's his only real friend.

Vore Information: Izzy is a rodent very terrified of being eaten; it completely overshadows everything in his life for him - avoiding being eaten in what he sees as his life's mission. He is very unwilling and will beg and plead at the slightest indication that someone is interested in eating him. He will also squirm and struggle as much as he can in an effort to escape (in the pred's grip, mouth, and belly), but as you probably have already guessed he's not too strong so it most likely wouldn't do him much good. His fear has a tendency to immobilize him, making the loud inner voice screaming for him to run fall on deaf ears. No matter how loud it gets or how much he agrees with it, he often can only cower when faced with something paralyzingly frightening to him. He has a natural fear of traditional squirrel-hunters (cats, foxes, pine martens, et cetera). If Izzy being any more submissive than he already is were possible, expressing a desire to gobble him up would certainly do the job.
