I love their names. Vhoddkah- A Laidback, carefree, too-cool-for-work (Blue Tuskaininny) pet with a flare for brown, green, and pink. HE WILL BE A PEO. I just need to buy a potion. ._.;; Xantippie- A Female Blue Peophin. She doesn't have a personality yet.... Neither of these two have designs and I really need everyone's help...I may end up labbing Vhoddkah if I can't get a MP, because it'd be easier and I really want him to be a character of mine. Xantippie, on the other hand, I don't even know if i'm keeping, so If you want her, just poke me with a stick and tell me so...

Well, I'm dead out of designs for now, but if it helps, Xantippie sounds like it was probably a play on the name Xanthippe, who was a figure in ancient Greece. I couldn't remember what she did though, so I googled her name and this came up: Xanthippe (5th century BC) Socrates' wife and matron of ancient Athens. The couple had three sons, Lamprokles, Sophroniskos and Menexenos, and she is said to have had a bad temper and to have been the very personification of the constantly nagging wife. Her contemporaries did not picture her as such a terrible person as the later Romans did. According to later stories, Socrates knew he was marrying a hag, but did so to practice his patience. A well known anecdote about the angry Xanthippe is the one where she was so angry with her husband that she threw a bucket of washing water on him. The philosopher then replied: after thunder comes rain. Socrates' saying "Marry or marry not, in any case you'll regret it" was supposedly in contemplation of his wife.
