Quests

Hey everyone! I couldn't sleep (again) last night, so I started drawing (again). This is the finished product. I even gave it a name and a history.

If you can read the writing in the corner, it says "Quest for Peace". Quests are little fox-like, horned creatures that are about as tall as a jar of tomato sauce. Since they're blind, a Quest's long whiskers help them move around. Their horns curve around like a ram's, and they have small cloven hooves, like a goat's. Its throat and stomach are covered in short, thick fur.

Every Quest has a symbol or idea that it stands for. It's markings are based on its idea or symbol. Many Quests have patterns like stripes or spots. The symbol can be found on its left hindquarters. On its left shoulder are its initials.

A Quest has three names: its first, its middle, and its last: Quest. Its first name is an anagram of a word representing its idea or symbol. Can you guess what Rowan is an anagram of? Quests' middle names go down the alphabet, from the first Quest, whose middle name was Alexandria, to the current one, whose middle name is Xavier. The middle names also alternate girl-boy.

Quests have been on this Earth since human civilization had its first major disaster. When the Quests reach Z, human civilization will either live in peace for the rest of its existence, or any evidence of its existence will be wiped off the face of the Earth. Fortunately, Quests can live to be hundreds, sometimes even thousands of years old, until the danger is past, and they can leave.

Every Quest has lived in a different major city. Rowan currently lives in a cozy little cave under Vatican City.
