Since the beginning of time, shamans have held deep bonds with animals and their spirits. Nearly every animal represented a certain trait of humans. Among the ancient Indians, people would even be named after the animals which captured their characteristics. Nowadays things are a bit different, but the representation of traits and characteristics through animals has been maintained.
Now it's your time to show us how much you know about the Toribash Staff and their personalities or appearance!
In this event it's your job to analyze and to maybe even study a staff member of your choice. You'll have to bring their characteristics into the animal realm and draw a picture of the animal which would best represent the staff member you picked.
If you'd like to know more about any staff member, researching them via the forums is recommended. You could also take a look at the staff members Tori ingame! Maybe some of them have a special appearance from which you can derive their characteristics.
The entries will be judged on the following main categories:
1. How creative is the idea?
2. Is the idea comprehensible and understandable?
3. Result of the picture (art/design skill)
The rules for this event are the following :
1. It must be an original picture drawn by you. No plagiarism.
2. Choose only ONE staff member.
3. You can create the picture in your medium of choice: digital, physical, whatever. We just have to be able to see it somehow, so even take photos of drawings if you need to!
4. It must be comprehensible! It is recommended that you attach a note to your post explaining why you picked this specific animal and characteristics for the specific staff member. It is also quite easy to take some of the staff members' Toris' appearances into account when drawing the animal (for example, Ishi's animal could be black and red).
5. The animal must be a real one. No mythical or imaginary animals.
6. Don't use animals with which the staff member already has a correlation. That means, no shark for Siku, no fish for Fish, etc.
Judges will be the GM team.

No, it's okay to take the staff members who were available at the time where the event was posted. Since it's not foreseeable if any staff members quits during a certain time, it would be unfair to say that someone has to change their submisson, in which he put much effort, only because of that.
Soap is a tiger because tigers are very timid, but vicious on certain situations; protective with people they like. Tigers are always licking their bodies to keep it clean. You know, soap, clean, etc. They can be strong and cute at the same time; fast problem-solvers and always insightful.
