Yourself as a Cantrian
I think we had this discussion before but I can't be bothered to search for it. So what would your description be if you were a Cantrian, which clothes would you wear and what skills would you have?
She's in her twenties and looks very young. She's about 5-foot-3 and looks shapely with wide hips and thighs, a good-sized rack and a bit of a round belly. Her hair is brown and cut in an asymmetric style so that it's longer in the right side, shorter in the back and left. Her eyes are light brown, almost amber, and the right one looks slightly to the side instead of straight ahead. She has a small white scar on her right forearm and another one on her left shin, close to the knee. Closer inspection might reveal white scratch-marks on both forearms.
She's wearing:
iron-framed spectacles
cotton shirt
cotton shorts
Skills: skillful at cooking, efficient at tailoring, efficient at carpentry

Re: Yourself as a Cantrian
a man in his twenties
Before you is a young man who appears older than his age.
His voice is toneless and flat; he has a tendency to ramble between periods of silence. His hazel eyes, thickly browed, either gaze listlessly into the distance or flash from interest to interest. His jawline is strong and his nose is longer than average. Thick brown - almost black - hair, not long but in desperate need of a trim, covers his head: a thoughtless mess. His skin is tanned from sun, albeit irregularly. He is strong but not large. His hands are long; his shoulders, sloping; his waist, thin. His glasses are unwashed; his posture, horrific; his bouncing foot, hyperactive.
He is most often found in grey clothes too thick for the appropriate season - turtlenecks and thick slacks. He avoids shoes and is rarely seen without vivid football socks pulled up to the knee. He keeps his skin clean, his hair less so.
He is often bored, and he cracks his back habitually.
Bonus points for keeping it under the char limit.

Re: Yourself as a Cantrian
He is in his twenties and is expertly working on project 'Playing video games'. He seems to have average strength.
"He stands at 5'7" in height. His skin is lightly tanned, with a slight yellow tint to it. While the upper half of his body is not toned and lacks body hair, the lower half features powerful, muscular legs that are covered in black hair. His light brown hair is cut shorter on the sides, and longer on the top, and it comes into a sort of widow's peak above his hazel eyes. His face is rather feminine, with smooth cheeks and a pointed chin. His voice is generally soft and higher pitched than that of most men, but when he sings, his voice is that of a bass."
He is wearing:
Skinny Jeans
Cotton Shirt
Cotton Vest
Leather Shoes
Skills:
Burying - Expert
Video Gaming - Expert
Singing - Skillful
Writing - Skillful
Cooking - Efficient
Gardening - Efficient
Any other skill that could be useful in Cantr - Awkward

Re: Yourself as a Cantrian
Oh, I like this thread
He is in his twenties and is working on project 'Resting on Couch'. He seems to have average strength.
Standing at an average Dutch height, his natural shape is broad, though his figure is plumped and rounded a bit. His hair is dark and curly, and combed back mostly so it stays out of his face. He can often be seen running a hand through his hair. He has speaking, greenish eyes, with a wide nose between them. His face often shows facial hair of a few days. He is never seen in trousers shorter than over-the-knee length. His skin is lightly tanned, though the parts covered by clothing are clearly lined out and tanned less.
He wears:
- cotton shirt - A black, basic, plain shirt with short sleeves is worn over the chest.
- sportswatch - A black, rubber covered watch with a rubber band is strapped around the left wrist.
- denim trousers - Long trousers with straight legs, made of denim.
- canvas sneakers - A casual pair of blue, rubber-soled shoes made of a lightweight canvas and laced over the instep.
You can see him holding:
- a brand new knife
- a new pair of sunglasses
Skills:
Cooking - efficiently
Carpeting - efficiently
Gardening - awkwardly
Well, that's it

Re: Yourself as a Cantrian
So this would require a minor liberty with the initial creation process but...
They are in their twenties and skilfully working on project 'procrastinating (not doing the washing up)'. They seem to be of average strength.
They look young and fairly slim, 5'6" tall when standing straight with skinny arms. Their eyes are a boring grey-ish kind of blue and their hair is medium-brown, curly, armpit-length, slightly frizzy and tied back in a low, tight ponytail. Their ears are very small and stick out at a greater angle than is normal - the right one is curled over at the top. Their face is covered in freckles and acne-scars. Sitting or standing at rest their right shoulder is higher than their left and they will often, with no apparent prompting, suddenly correct their posture. They are fidgety and often seem to be lost in thought.
They wear:
Cotton shirt
Denim trousers
Canvas sneakers
Skills:
Cooking - skilled
Gardening - novice
Tailoring - efficient
Collecting - skilled
(Apparently a walking skill was once considered? I'd be expert at that )

Re: Yourself as a Cantrian
Oh boy. xD
She is in her twenties and awkwardly working on 'Not looking weird'.
She stands at an average height of 5'5'', with pale lightly freckled skin. She seems weaker than average, and she has a pear shaped, slightly chubby form, with wide milk maid hips and ample breasts. It seems like she was fatter once, but she's lost some weight since her clothes fit rather loosely. Her legs are long and shapely despite her weight, probably formed from exercise. She has a roundish face with large, pale blue eyes, overly long lashes, pale lips and dimples that form easily when she smiles. Her hair is a total mess of thick, bushy brown hair, with curls and waves tumbling down her back all the way to her lower back. Long bangs frame her face and often get in the way. She often seems shy and socially awkward, standing off to the side with her arms folded. But the moment someone talks to her or includes her, she bursts into a fit of words, rambling in a sheepish fashion. But despite that she makes jokes often, and her smiles are wide and warm despite her awkward appearance.
She wears:
Thigh Length Boots: A pair of black thigh high boots, stopping just above the knees. They have tall full platform heels, and a single buckle and strap at each ankle. They're zipped up at the sides. They hug close to the wearers legs, and the thick heels provide ample balance.
Cotton tights: Black cotton tights, pulled up to the waist. They fit slightly loosely, like they're too big for her.
Cotton Dress: A comfortable, royal blue cotton dress, with mid length sleeves that reach just past her elbows, hugging her arms and shoulders. It fits tightly around her chest and has a high neckline, the circular neckline stopping just below her collarbone. The dress flares out from beneath her bust and flows down in a wide skirt, stopping high on her thighs. The slightly heavy material only flares a little, but it accentuates her hips and bust. It seems a little too big for her recently, loose at the front and back. It sways as she walks, and the outfit seems simple but stylish.
Light silver topaz necklace: A London blue topaz, cut into an oval shape and set on a ornate silver base. It's relatively small, and is suspended on a thin, delicate silver chain.
Sapphire floral ring: A small, delicate silver floral ring with a thin band. A small, oval cut and rounded Star Sapphire is placed in the middle, with smaller circular diamonds surrounding it like petals, making the ring appear to be an ornate flower. The gems shine and reflect the light in facets, but the star sapphire is the most spectacular, producing a light blue, shining star across its surface when the light touches it.
Silver locket: A large heart shaped locket with the words 'I love you' engraved into it. It opens up to reveal a note inside, and she wears it above the topaz necklace, close to her neck.
As for my skills, I'm not sure, but Animal Domestication, Fighting and Cooking would be my expert skills. And art and writing if they were skills. And my weapon would be a crossbow or composite recurve bow depending on mood, along with a dagger. (for slaughtering Drama Llama's to cook some Drama Llama Pie)
I was brutally honest with this xD and the outfit described it the one I'm wearing right now. I don't think I would mind making myself in Cantr, but would feel too weird.
(so many spelling errors and edits fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu)
