Appearance

Bruno is a North American porcupine; his stocky rodent body is a hefty thirty-five pounds during a good year, and discounting his quills, he's just nearly a foot tall on all fours. His base color along his body and the roots of his quills is a dark gray black, with dark brown nose and paws. Though typically obscured by his armor of quills, Bruno is a well-muscled beast for his size, capable of digging and climbing and hustling at a surprising pace. His quills vary in length, with the longest along his back and shoulders stretching out to nearly a foot. These quills are close to black near his body, and become a deathly bone-white as they extend further out. When walking, Bruno is far from stealthy; the slight waddle of his body structure causes his quills to sway, reminding any observer of the danger in attacking him. Bruno's voice is deep, but not without a hint of dark humor.

Personality

Bruno is a proud member of The Collective, and a loyal follower of The Don. Loyalty, and a sense of criminal honor, drive him in his works on behalf of The Collective. The porcupine has little tolerance for disrespect, but that goes two ways; he won't treat another with undue rudeness or cruelty. Bruno does not believe that innocence exists beyond the blind stage of infancy, and instead thinks that once a creature opens their eyes, they are capable of greed and envy and gluttony and all the dark things that drive the natural world.
