So remember my story "Dinner with a diapercritter"? Well even since before that story I've wanted to make the two characters in it mainstays (if you've been with me for a long time, I made journals detailing them a long long time ago).

This is Pelenka the chameleon diapercritter. He's currently unemployed but is perpetually looking for a job, though often only finds success in red light districts. He lives in the big city with his roommate Lance the bat.

Diapercritters DO exist in this world, and like most bizzare occurances, tend to only appear around major, populated cities. They function similarly to classical vampires, in that they lure in victims with various coercions in order to feed, only obviously not with blood. A good amount of them have formed societies underground in sewers and abandoned subway tunnels, where they have access to an infinite amount of "food", though it's universally considered worse quality than the fresh stuff. More info about how diapercritters work in the footnotes.

Pelenka didn't want to spend his whole life taking advantage of anthroes just to survive, so he decided to take a different approach. He joined several abdl internet forums, and after making a few friends, eventually found Lance, a budding dl who seemed like a good candidate. After the two became good friends, Pelenka revealed his secret to Lance, who was overjoyed at the fact diapercritters were real, and the two grew even closer, with Pelenka finally getting to vent about his unique moral dillema that he faced, and how Lance could help solve it.

So eventually the two moved in together, as roommates-with-benefits. Pelenka slowly convinced Lance to start wearing 24/7, supplying him with a steady stream of sustinance, while in exchange he would take care of the apartment and be in charge of cooking meals. Despite being inorganic, Pelenka is a surprisingly good cook, and is particularly good at making foods that cause you to fill your seat, which Lance is more than happy to do.

Occasionally, Lance does actually wear Pelenka like a suit and use him directly, about once a week. Even though he doesn't like to use it, Pelenka IS very good at convincing people, though he respects Lance too much to take complete advantage of him like so many of his fellow diapercritters.

He pretends to be a normal anthro, though he rarely wears pants (which is normal in this society). He usually explains the extra bulk around his waist as hatchling fat (it usually works). He DOES wear shoes though, since otherwise his relatively light body would be the victim of wind.

As a diapercritter, Pelenka has a few special powers:
-Ability to alter his color scheme (not normal for critters, but he's a chameleon)
-Voice mimicry
-A tape dispenser-like tongue that has about a 3 meter reach at most
-Altering the shape and size of his body to accomodate anthroes of all shapes and sizes (this changing his thickness, as well as turning his hands into mittens to restrict the wearer)
-Turning into a diaper (as a diaper, his eyes become the diaper's tapes)
-Power of suggestion (if that doesn't work, he IS able to hypnotize people, though he doesn't like doing this)
-Talking to his wearer telepathically
-Assuming direct control of his wearer (he can move their body, but can't directly get them to use him)
-Can use excess padding in his body to generate new diapers from inside himself; he's even able to give them unique designs

PROFILE

Name: Pelenka Smith (still choosing a last name)

Gender: Genderless (presents as male)

Orientation: Pansexual panromantic (but y'know, revolving around diapers)

Height: 5' 9" (175 cm)

Species: Chameleon (specifically fischer's chameleon) diapercritter

Occupation: N/A (Currently looking for a job)

Personality: Outgoing but knows when to stop. Playful and charismatic, the type of person who brightens your mood to be around. Very perserverent and doesn't stay in a bad mood for long. Loves to cook, and hopes to one day travel the world.

Voice: High pitched, sounds like a normal male voice with the pitch tweaked to be higher. Still definitely male despite the pitch though.

Favorite Dinner: I'll give you one guess

(A fetishy part would be redundant because he's literally built on a fetish, so let's just get to the notes)

Notes: Pelenka possesses all 5 senses that a normal anthro does, most of them much stronger than normal, though he has a notably weak sense of smell, and loves certain unpleasant smells (I'm sure you know which). He can "taste" by putting food in his mouth and letting the padding in his cheeks absorb it.

-He can still "eat" and taste normal food, but gets significantly less nutrients from it. He does enjoy it though.
-The more used he is, the longer it takes him to absorb/digest it, though it usually doesn't take more than a day at most.
-Any waste that he absorbs is converted into more padding, which he can either use to modify himself, or can get rid of by creating diapers within his body. They're usually stored in Pelenka's own "diaper", so if his butt looks lumpier than normal, he probably needs you to take a few diapers out of him.
-Pelenka weighs a little more than you'd expect a diapercritter to weigh, around 30lbs total, so he's definitely lighter than a regular anthro, but not so light a breeze would carry him away.
-Pelenka's "eyes" are two translucent plastic hemispheres, similar to a Flygon's eyes, with the two lights inside being his pupils.
-He can still move and control himself even with his tapes undone, though this is mostly just to help people wear him.

(Possibly) Fun Fact: Any  LeonXIII fans may regonize his name as the Ukrainian word for diaper! He also goes by "Pel" or "Pelka" for nicknames.

(This was drawn... a long time ago by  Mountain_Mama for me. I was in the very call where we designed him!)
