Favorite character: From "The Gathering In"
Name: Camlost
Age: 7 years
Race: Corvus brachyrhynchos (common crow)
Personality: Gregarious, but wary, as he is often mistaken for a crebain. Intelligent, curious, and given to taking small items which strike his fancy. Was once captive in his youth, and lost one foot to the family dog. Can talk.
Weapons: Brain; swift flight; sharp, strong beak; wicked sense of humor
Why my favorite: A no holds barred sort of creature, with a mild disdain for the mental abilities of the two-leggeds.
Second favorite: From "Wolf Run"
Carchmoroth - Warg
Fierce, intelligent, a tactician in his approach to hunting prey and engaging in battle. Yellow eyed, silver backed grey, 200 lbs, lean, well muscled, bears a notched right ear from an unfortunate encounter with a sheep dog.
Taught to speak by an Elf he once detained and then devoured.
Given to reciting the verses concerning Carcharoth, from the 'Lay of Leithian' to captive audiences.
Again, I like him because he has a sneering contempt for self-important two-leggeds.
