What about something like an interdimensional fox, or canid creature that has magical abilities. Like levitation, change objects around her, spawn objects/creatures, maybe 'grow' things ;), hypnosis maybe?

Jace The Fox

I have found that the colors light blue and yellow goes well together or have the were it's one color most of the way then on the tail tip It has two more colors or fades to the lighter version of the color like on my OC

Ruaidri

Ha! That probably should have been the most obvious choice shouldn't it, since I'm literally making her from a bat! :P

It could be a fun one though

You could make an enfield; a Fox with the forelegs swapped for bird feet. Not a huge departure in firm, but sharp talons combined with an insane grip is an amusing contrast with how soft and fluffy they are elsewhere. Especially the kinds of soft delicate things you usually have your characters handle.

Or, to take it in a different direction, there are several dog breeds which would fit Mango's model while remaining visually distinct. Either a doberman or german shepherd would have a comparable head shape, pointed ears, and a distinctive fur pattern. And the breed associations as "tough" guard dog types could lend itself to a more tomboyish character, matching the base body's more athletic form (I think of Mango's running test animation).

bat eared foxes are cute! also, any mythical foxes like kitsune, who have multiple tails!

This may not be quite what you're looking for, but perhaps an albino fox/canid? White fur, ruby eyes - always love the way you animate your characters' eyes and the unique pink shade would be visually distinct. White fur would also contrast well with the brighter and more exotic colors of much of the main cast (and be a particularly sharp contrast to Mango, since they'd be sharing a similar body). Plus some colorful accessories or jewelry to "compensate". Or maybe she could be a bit of a neat freak because of the easily stained white fur? There'd be some room there for endearing character quirks that could be communicated easily without sound.

Tibetan fox. Definitely Tibetan fox.

Ruaidri

That's a very specific suggestion. :P

An Arctic werefox who starts out as a basic Arctic fox which becomes Beastly when it catches the scent of females in heat

Foxes can have a ton of unusual markings. Check out some of the real-life foxes on the SaveAFox YouTube channel (a fox rescue organization in Minnesota). https://www.youtube.com/@SaveAFox

Dark End

Not a fox, but an African wild dog would be pretty amazing to see.

Gerald Sears

Ferret! Reject fox return to ferret!

Theethee

Twin foxes boy and girl

Maybe a corsac fox?

Eddie SanHusky

Jackals are underrepresented all around

Flup Volta

A black backed jackal would be cool!

Ruaidri

To be fair she didn't get a ton of advertisement. I bet she could get some traction if I polished her up to my current standards and used her for some stuff.

knedit knedit

not really an IRL species look but anubian jackals are very cool and underused

Luís (Vellum)

Grey fox perhaps! They’re expert climbers, which might play into the character a bit, and they have a consistent, and recognizable pelage!

BreezyBreeze

Oooh, I like both the attached picture and the African Wild Dog idea as well

Rechan

People didn't even like the deer. :P

Rechan

So while I like arctic, black-phased silver and grey foxes, I think the nuances would look too close to your existing characters (Sy, etc). So how about something like this? https://www.furaffinity.net/view/42421297/ Or an African Wild Dog, yeah. Altho their pattern is a bit of a tall order. Edit: Oh! What if you did something a little wild. You know, like a tiger-striped fox. (Or maybe cloude leopard/snow leopard/jaguar).

Scotia

You've got a fennec and silver fox already... how about a marble fox? They're gorgeous!

Ruaidri

My roster is light on those for a reason unfortunately, they're just not my thing I'm afraid. Just personal preference. :P

Jace The Fox

Ohh, well I have found that the colors light blue and yellow goes well together or have the were it's one color most of the way then on the tail tip It has two more colors or fades to the lighter version of the color like on my OC

WannabeaFurry

I would love to have an andromorph (cuntboy) arctic fox. The character roster would benefit from some intersex characters.

Disjachi

Dingo or jackal?

Ruaidri

A pretty good one too! Definitely on my maybe list.

Garwaron

cute af

Gin

How about a spotted wild dog! That's another idea.

Ruaidri

Got two silver foxes already, so I certainly appreciate your desire for more silver foxes! But... I've got two silver foxes already, so probably don't need another just yet. :P
