GESB: OOC Discussion

[Myitt]

Yeerks are two inches long. (Thank you Wikipedia and Google. )

I don't think that's backed up by any evidence--the only reference to Yeerk size (besides humans holding them fairly easily in their hands) in the series is in book #6, when Temrash is described as a slug "not [quite] six inches long". 

I'm off to edit Wikipedia like a nerd!  Uh.  Maybe.  Someday.

I guess two feet would be a bit excessive, once I think about it.

[AmberKatira]

But "a little less than six inches" is not consistent with humans generally being able to hold a Yeerk in their hands.  I have a six inch ruler here, and it is not well contained in one hand.  And, though my hands might be a bit on the small side, they're still going to be larger than those of a young teenage Animorph.

....I feel overly analytical now.... >.<

MST3K Mantra (It's just a show, I should really just relax). That's all I can say.

Nice pic. So thats what they look like. Pixie don't worry I haven't readthem yet either.

Physical descriptions are fun! I'm actually kind of sad that both my characters at least look human now. Well okay...granted Mar's usual form looks more "uncanny valley human" than truly human, but he's mortal in the GESB. ;P And Keshin is...well...Yeerky. And slimy.

No way, you haven't??? lol yaay, i'm not alone.

I'll try and post a reply for Morgan soon. I want to use a keyboard larger than my itouch.

Welcome to the Sanctuary Dimension Chad. As soon as the rest come through the portal I will post the next entry ok? Working on it now because I have to review how Deckard Cain talks. I can tell you he sounds like Sean Connery and looks like Patrick Stewart. 

[Chad32]

I like how Sean Connery talks.

[General Squall Leonhart]

Yeah he does have a nice accent. However I am having a problem with wording the way he talks because this is medieval times so I have to have period accurate speech. Any Suggestions?

[Chad32]

Just throw in some thees and thous, and say morrow instead of tomorrow or morning. Maybe read some of Romeo and Juliet. Or King Arthur perhaps.

[General Squall Leonhart]

I wasn't exactly thinking Shakespeare. I was thinking more along the lines of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. (Starring Kevin Costner as Robin Hood and Alan Rickman as Sheriff of Nottingham)

Ewa just approached Keshin and asked her to sit down--to clarify my post.  I tried to make it clear, but it's hard to be 100% certain when my character doesn't have names to attach to many people yet.
