ScaramoucheFandango: Scaramouche, Scaramouche, Will You Do the Fandango?

Scaramouche is a gray wolf, the result of a cross between a shrew, a sheepdog, and a trip to New Orleans during Mardi Gras. As such, she is generally confused about people, but that hasn't stopped her from being [[Alex_A_Fawkes|Alex Fawkes's]] best friend and [[Anubis_Fandango|Anubis's]] soul mate.
=Appearance and Personality=
Scaramouche is an anthropoid wolf, silver in color, with shoulder-length brown hair and purple glasses. She usually is worried about something or other, and is often slumped in appearance because of this. She wears a wire ankh around her neck on a black cord at all times- Anubis's first present to her. She is somewhat stocky, but doesn't mind. Her fur is pale compared to her hair, and according to her sister, her complexion leaves something to be desired. Scaramouche does not care about that, however, as she always looks at personality before looks. She is nice, and likes to talk to people she trusts, but seems shy to those outside. However, if she feels that she can trust somebody, it's immediate. She is a strict vegetarian, but does consume dairy products.
=Relationships=
==Anubis Fandango==
When Scaramouche notice that Anubis Fandango read Douglas Adams' works, it was love at first sight. The pair have a lot in common, such as their mutual love of British humor, classic rock, and fantasy, be it RPG's or nicely-written books. Even though they live together (and, even though she technically sleeps in another room, wind up sleeping together) they have not gone any further than intensive cuddling. They can often be found on the roof of the building, where Anubis's brother built a zen garden when he stayed over.
==Alex A.==
Alex put a classified ad in the paper for an apartment-mate; what she got was a friend for life. Some call them Pinky and the Brain, others call them Oh God Not Them Again, but no matter where they are wreaking havoc (Wal-Mart, the mall, the Sears Tower, New York City, or anyplace else), Alex A. and Scaramouche are on identical wavelengths. They can even tell what the other one is feeling at the moment, something that can be very difficult sometimes. They also share a deep love of Queen and David Bowie, although Scaramouche has never wanted to bear the children of either.
=Family Ties=
Queen wrote a song about Scaramouche's family. It's called [[Wikipedia:Tie_Your_Mother_Down|Tie Your Mother Down]]. With her alternate tastes, she has never gotten along with most of her relatives, especially the maternal side.
===Cherry===
Cherry is Scaramouche's mother, a shrew. While it is obvious that she only wants the best for her daughter, her definition of the best equals money, good looks, the color pink, rap/bubblegum pop music, and a tight body. Her only appearances in the strip have been the Thanksgiving episodes, in which she tried to either make Scaramouche change clothes, take off her necklace, marry a rich plastic surgeon to the stars (ten years Scaramouche's senior) or lose weight. Usually, Scaramouche says nothing until her mother leaves, after which she slams the door and yells a witty reference to something Cherry wouldn't understand. Usually, it's [[Wikipedia:Fat_Bottomed_Girls|"Well, Freddie Mercury would think I'm beautiful!"]]
===Doc===
Scaramouche and her father always had an uneasy peace, but that was never really broken. Mostly because he works in Antarctica treating penguins and sends the money home.
===Siblings===
Scaramouche has one thing to say about all of them: "They all look like long-haired little shrews. I'm genetically tested to be one-hundred proof wolf. WHY WON'T MY PARENTS TELL ME THE TRUTH?!?"
One of her sisters, Bubbles, is a cheerleader. She is scared of Scaramouche's predator friends, and when they were little, Scaramouche told her that she had paid a lion to come and eat Bubbles. Bubbles has been afraid of cats ever since.

ScaramoucheFandango: Alex A. Fawkes from strip of same name.

Alex A. Fawkes is the titular character of the offline, hopefully soon to be scanned, comic strip ''Alex A. Fawkes.'' She is '''not''' a fox at all, but rather a maned wolf. Her last name is properly pronounced FOU-kes, not fox, from which is where a lot of the confusion stems. She is a sophomore in college someplace in northeastern Illinois, but the strip's author is not being specific on exactly where. She lives with her friends [[Scaramouche|Scaramouche]], a flat-out grey wolf, and [[Anubis_Fandango|Anubis Fandango]], Scaramouche's taciturn jackal Adonis, in a two-bedroom apartment. (Scaramouche sleeps on the futon in the living room.)
=Appearance and Personality=
Alex is an anthro Maned Wolf, with permanently-tousled sable hair. She is quite tall for her slim size, and is constantly mistaken for a vixen. However, it is a horrible idea to treat her as such- she carries a six-inch Bowie knife she calls David that she uses to fend off any unwanted romantic advancement. She usually wears black flared jeans and a t-shirt with Freddie Mercury's picture or the words Don't Stop Me Now on it. Alex enjoys classic rock, especially David Bowie and Queen. Actually, almost exclusively David Bowie and Queen, although she has listened to Queen less ever since she came home to see a certain couple making a music video to "Body Language" on the couch. She is somewhat perverted in her sense of humor, but otherwise is a very nice person. Currently, she is a music major, singing and playing the violin. She also seems to get choreographed into the drama classes' tap scenes, even though she can't dance.
=Relationships=
Alex's best friend is Scaramouche the wolf, but outside of their apartment, she has few others. She is quite attractive and has been in several nice romances, but those always end with something horrible happening to the guy. (Her latest boyfriend, a furniture psychic, dissolved when he sat on the sofa.) She writes to her family once a month to give them details on her experiences at college, although she takes care not to mention that there is a male living in her apartment, seeing as they are both extremely protective of their only daughter. Both Mr. and Mrs. Fawkes are maned wolves.
