<p>Maddy is a small bundle of snow leopard, standing at about five feet tall. Her form is rounded, beyond just the point of ‘curvy’ and decidedly into the realm of ‘chubby’. She’s fairly self-conscious of her weight, though she wears it well, hiding in slightly-too-big boy shirts and loose skirts, both of which serve to help keep her cool, even on the coldest days. Beyond that, the girl wears nothing else - again, the better to stay cool - except for an elegant band around her neck of solid metal (titanium, as she’ll proudly tell you), circular in cross-section and polished to a gleam. There’s no visible means of removing it.</p>
<p>She’s got more than enough fluff to keep her warm, after all. The thick gray fur also serving to hide her curves somewhat. The fur is fairly standard for a snow leopard, light gray on all but her belly, which is a snowy white, with darker gray rosettes scattered evenly through it. The one defining feature being her paws: these are that darker gray, almost black, of her rosettes, covering her arms from fingertips to elbows. Yet another thing for her to feel self-conscious about.</p>
<p>In order to draw away from what she sees as the less-appealing aspects of her appearance, Maddy’s taken steps to flash up the bits of her that she likes more. She’s dyed her hair in pastel colors, a smooth fade from pale pink to sky blue, complementing her light blue eyes. The hair is worn up in a pony tail most of the time, though bangs continue to pester her throughout the day. The rest of her face is fairly plain, though certainly not lacking in expressiveness. When she’s not blushing and stammering about something that makes her shy and embarrassed (that abiding love of Enya, perhaps), she’s most likely to be animatedly geeking out about something she cares deeply about, such as Star Wars novels, or perhaps Firefly. Her nose is pink with a few darker splotches on it, fronting a fairly standard set of whiskers and well-groomed cheekfur.</p>
<p>She’s followed everywhere by the biggest endowment any snow leopard could hope for: a luxurious tail that seems just a bit too long on her. The tip is black with a few rings, but the rest is covered in those dark spots on a light grey.</p>
<p>Maddy is a small bundle of snow leopard, standing at about five feet tall. Her form is rounded, beyond just the point of ‘curvy’ and decidedly into the realm of ‘chubby’. She’s fairly self-conscious of her weight, though she wears it well enough, and hides what she can behind baggy clothes. Except maybe when nude, as she is now. It’s got her blushing furiously, but she’s set her clothes aside for a bit, leaving her clothed only in fluff. Fluff and that band around her neck - a simple band of metal (titanium, as she’ll proudly tell you), circular in cross-section and polished to a gleam. There’s no visible means of removing it.</p>
<p>She’s got more than enough of that fluff to keep her warm. The thick gray fur also serving to hide her curves somewhat. The fur is fairly standard for a snow leopard, light gray on all but her belly, which is a snowy white, with darker gray rosettes scattered evenly through it. Her paunch is a little more visible now, without the loose clothing, though the fur softens even that, and helps keep her relatively decent. The one defining feature being her paws: these are that darker gray, almost black, of her rosettes, covering her arms from fingertips to elbows. Yet another thing for her to feel self-conscious about.</p>

<p>Chipper, bright, prone to blushing, and nerdy as heck, Maddy is a small bundle of snow leopard. She looks to be somewhere in her mid-teens, standing a bit over four and a half feet tall. Puberty has clearly hit, but only recently, so she hasn’t gained much in the way of height, nor of a chest, only adding to the appearance of being a kid. She looks like she never quite lost that baby-fat, and has landed firmly in the camp of ‘chubby’. School being what it is, she’s fairly self-conscious of her weight, hiding in slightly-too-big boy shirts and loose skirts whenever she can, both of which serve to help keep her cool, even on the coldest days. Beyond that, the girl wears nothing else - again, the better to stay cool - except for a pretty band around her neck of solid metal (titanium, as she’ll proudly tell you), circular in cross-section and polished to a gleam.

<p>Tall, visibly trans, and more than a bit mussed, she stands at just over six feet tall, not including the additional inch her hair occupies. The hair seems to shift freely between frizz and curl, and has been dyed a smooth fade from a blueish-green up top to purple down toward the ends, which reach down to her shoulder blades. Or, rather, it had been dyed a few months back, as the color is starting to fade and an inch or two of salt-and-pepper brown roots are showing. She keeps it caught in a loose ponytail, twirled around a chopstick, or in a sloppy braid, minus a forelock draped to the side.</p>
<p>Her long, oval face is framed by that hair, a hint of masculinity shown by her high brow, a receding hairline caught too late by hormones. She’s got minimal makeup on today, with just a thin layer of BB cream to cover up acne scars, plus a hint of eye shadow, liner, and mascara peeking out from behind cat-eye glasses. Beside the hairline, her features are decidedly feminine, blessed as she was with full lips, a delicate jawline, and an slightly weak jaw that, in combination with fat distribution, has hidden her Adam’s apple - though the solid band of titanium around her neck certainly helps out in this.</p>
<p>The girl’s shoulders are broad, given her stature, which shows through given her tight T-shirt. The upside of that tee is that, with a bit of clever work from her bra, her breasts add some curvature to her chest, though they can’t be much more than a B-cup - if even that. The burgundy shirt is blazoned with a pretty-looking non-anthro fox surrounded by flowers, set above a banner that says, simply, “Rude”.</p>
<p>Those subtle curves continue down over her front. Maddy’s decidedly pudgy, though she’s managed to keep her weight down as best she can, and could probably be described as simply ‘stocky’, in a pinch. The bonus to the added weight is that, after several years on hormones, it’s settled into give her a bit of definition around her waist: although her pelvis is still narrow, the softness has left her the semblance of hips, if not the reality. Around those, she wears a skirt; a tiered, green crepe-cotton deal reaching down to mid-calf.</p>
<p>She has quite a few markings on her: brands. There’s one each on the backs of her hands, a few on her inner wrists, several traveling up her arms, and two more on the insides of her ankles, a canine paw on one and a seven-pointed star on the other. Her left hand also sports a tattoo of a semicolon at the base of her thumb, and a simple wedding band.</p>
<p>She looks happy enough, if bashful to be seen out of cat-mode. She’s still ready to chatter away in a low alto voice which dips treacherously toward baritone if she isn’t careful.</p>
<p>Ta-da! Maddy’s got all done up in her halloween costume! This year, she’s going as: a plush snep! Spooooky~</p>
<p>Where once there was a flesh and blood and real fur snep, there is now a flopsy-style plush. She’s still clearly a snow leopard, with the rosettes and feline shape, and she’s still clearly Maddy, what with the pink-and-blue hair and black forepaws. The similarities largely end there, though.</p>
<p>Where once there was thick, patterned snow leopard fur, there is now faux fur. It’s soft, sure, and still dense, but not nearly as thick or deep as a real cat’s, and interrupted by seams. Where once there was…well, the insides of a cat, there is now simply polyfill. Where once there was a well-defined body, there is now simply flopped-out plush.</p>
<p>As with plushes of that style, she’s mostly trapped in one position: lying flat on her belly with paws stretched to the fore and back. She seems to have some limited movement, as she can paw feebly at things or perhaps move about a little, but it looks like quite the endeavor.</p>
<p>This certainly isn’t helped by the state of her paws. Rather than individually defined fingers, her digits are merely hinted at by seams sewn into the faux-fur fabric of her limbs. While the rest of her is filled with soft polyfill, the ends of her paws are filled with beads, beans, or similar to give them a bit of weight.</p>
<p>Her face is still fairly expressive, even if her tongue is felt and her eyes are patches, some form of hand-wavey magic letting her talk and show expressions. That long ponytail of hair has turned into something of a mane, still fading from pink to sky-blue, traveling down the back of her neck.</p>
<p>She has no clothes on, finding them rather hard to deal with, what with how restricted her mobility is. The only bit of non-snep on her is a tag attached to her hip at one of her seams, showing only a heart on one side and some simple cleaning instructions on the other.</p>
<p>The plush snow leopard is about five feet long from tip to tail - the latter being just as long and thickly furred as it should be. Perfect for cuddling~</p>
<p>Ta-da! Maddy’s got all done up in her halloween costume! This year, she’s going as: Dr Madison E. Paws, magical engineer for the Institute of Planar Research and Exploration!</p>
<p>As befitting her career, she’s got all the trappings of a wizard. There’s the pointed hat of wine-colored felted wool on her head and the slender wand of aspen and silver in her hand. As befitting her position within the IPRE, she’s got all the trappings of an engineer: the red robe blazoned with the IPRE insignia - a circle of blue with the letters IPRE stitched in it, surrounded by twelve circles representing the twelve planes of existence - worn over a cream tunic and brown leggings with a utility belt around the waist. This belt has -so- many pockets, filled with all the material components for spells one could need, not to mention a wrench, pair of pliers, hammer, and knife because sometimes you just need to bang on shit.</p>
<p>Beyond that, she’s a pretty standard snow leopard. A bit short, fairly pudgy, and usually more than a little mussed up. She’s got more than enough fluff to keep her warm. The thick gray fur also serving to hide her curves somewhat. The fur is fairly standard for a snow leopard, light gray on all but her belly, which is a snowy white, with darker gray rosettes scattered evenly through it.
