Kokopoko Flume and the Duchess of Teeth

I made this my screen name just because I thought it sounded cool. But then I had to figure out what the heck the Duchess of Teeth actually WAS, and so she eventually became a giant binturong with eye holes that go through the back of her head and telekinetic power over teeth, claws, knuckle bones and tusks. You can't see it too well but she holds some in place where her foreleg got whacked off.

Flume, the little critter down there by the minimammoth, is a Kokoparvest, an alien species those of you who read 'Jello' might recognise. Being the protagonist and all Flume often finds herself helping out around Tobermory; here she was after a new tusk for Windfall. Where better to get a tusk than Dentatta Cavern?
Of course, as Rillid pointed out, what's a Duchess of Teeth if she lets her stash get stolen? She's happy as always to entertain guests, being a duchess and all, but as soon as tea is over with there's a dark pool and a pair of pliers at the ready.

The Duchess sometimes has little teeth lining her eyes, and swaps out dozens of them for her jaw every week. Her natural chompers are unbroken sheets of bone, so she can actually eat teeth, their powder acting as stuffing for her hollow body. She has a rather playful, almost giddy personality, and seems unaware of just how horrifying she is. If you find yourself invited to tea, it is advised you act natural and gnaw on whatever undulate horn she offers, or else she'll know you're onto her.
Since she doesn't eat Kiperlanders she isn't classified as a Giant.


Trying out my new Copic Multiliners, as suggested by Raxion. Thanks, Raxion!

I think I like the texture of the fur the most. >w<
