Distinguishing Characteristics: Unusually meek and timid for a Mishupishu, likely due to being the bullied runt of the litter; somewhat weak and not a good fighter, so prefers to avoid conflict--considers it prudent, not cowardly, to flee if possible, but will stand up for others if he has to; loyal to his friends and those who are kind to him; can pretend to be fearsome but dislikes doing so
General Appearance: Smaller than the average Mishupishu of his general age (other Mishupishus called him "fingerling" and "small fry" because of this); resembles a sea serpent, with a long serpentine body, scales, numerous dorsal spines which can glow in the dark, and tiny, clawed/webbed, mostly nonfunctional forelegs which usually go unseen under the water (no hindlegs); face resembles a cross between a feline and a catfish, with webbed/pointed ears, barbels, green eyes with vertical slitted pupils, sharp teeth, long forked tongue, gills, and wide copper horns; one spine permanently bent from an injury; frightening appearance which doesn't match his personality
