Amicus

Amicus is a female Talyxian Stalker, situated in Out Ring, Gold Ring within the New Age canon on Planet Tal

Appearance
Amicus is covered in a thick brown fur. Her fur colour indicates the toughness of that specific area of her body. For instance, the darker brown fur is severely matted and hardened when the light brown fur is almost soft to the touch and unmatted. The green fur highlights most of the protruding pieces of fur and is a mixture of hard/soft fur. The plaits have been done by her companion Cassius as usually this fur is incredibly long and causes annoyance for Amicus. She has three emerald eyes. Two are complex round eyes, spaced evenly on either side of the head. The third is a more "basic" eye which senses only limited wavelengths of light. None of the eyes possess pupils and it is unknown how they function. She has six nostrils, three on either side of the "muzzle". She also has what appears to be two sets of ears which have very limited movement.

Personality
She is quite intelligent for a member of her species and knows a very basic form of the common sergal language. She can be selfish and stubborn at times but she is able to form close relationships to few individuals and overcome these traits (mostly). She has empathy for people but will often put her own needs above others. Not allowing people to get too close, Amicus much prefers the company of relaxed individuals and will enjoy just being in someone elses' company more than physical touch.

Biography
Amicus grew up in the clan with Cassius. They travelled across the desert together with the aim of reaching Gold Ring. However once they found themselves there, they felt the same harsh judgement Cassius had felt in his own clan. They were outcasts and not accepted for the strange work and strange fur that Cassius had brought with him. So Amicus continued to follow him, feeling empathy for the Sergal, even going as far as to protect him when the onlookers became too aggressive.

They moved on to the outskirts of Gold Ring, Out Ring, and opened up a business there selling potions, raw ingredients and even some forms of narcotics such as Imagoi. Amicus is currently learning under Cassius as an apprentice alchemist and their shop is still open to this day.
