I have a sister who is an artist, and she is awesome. As a bit of a belated birthday/christmas gift she offered to draw ref sheets for my 4 avali characters, and I think this turned out amazing.

Drawn by  FlyingZamora, though she isn't really ever active here anymore.

Meet Tselvaki, the leader and "face" of the Tesai pack. Though his entire pack is dedicated to exploring, and is therefore experienced in a broad range of subjects, his specialty is directing where their exploration efforts should go, as well as being the main pack member to talk with outsiders. He provides most of the pack's charisma, and words come a lot more easily to him than his packmates, with Ceital being too lost in his thoughts and Sevina too reserved to take the forefront very often. In his spare time, he likes listening to music and thinking about which songs the pack might be able to practice during their long expeditions into the black.

Personality-wise, he's the most outgoing of the four, and with a temper matching his red coloration. He and Eika are usually the ones to speak with new people, with Eika providing the friendliness and him providing the wit. Without his presence the pack will be very noticeably more reserved and hesitant to take risks, falling back on Ceital's analytical approach and Sevina's steadiness.

Though his entire pack is closer to him than family, as most avali packs are, he harbors an especially big soft spot for his packmate Sevina, who was one of the first avali to see through the "tough guy" shell that he had naturally surrounded himself with and keep his aggressive nature in check enough for him to reconcile with Ceital and Eika and let the four of them bond together.
