I wanted to play the "if I had a fursona, what would it be" game, but since I don't like normal anthros, I had to take a darker twist with it.

Knives is a monsterous grackle. When he is excited or angry, his spines will become stiff enough to pierce and stab like a knife. The sharpened ridges along his forearms and legs are equally sharp, and his beak is powerful enough to crack bones with a solid grasp.

Personality wise, he is very silent and observational. With these traits come wisdom, and a level of perception that he is very proud of. Despite his threatening appearance, however, he is quite shy and does not care for company. It takes a long time for him to warm up to people, and even when he does, he rarely allows them into his mind. He also has a bad tendency to manipulate others and be overbearingly dominant when he sees someone as inferior. (as you can see i wanted to pick out some of my worst traits to give to him because who needs redeeming factors eheheh)

I might draw more of this guy, since his design was inspired by my love of birds, a dream i recently had, and a VERY old character that I made a looong time ago. In a way he was a redesign of that character, but trust me when i say there are enough differences to make him pretty much new. :T
