Appearance:	Mekavan is large and muscular, built like the mountains he governs. His usual form stands taller than those of the other Elementals, as if in imitation of those self-same mountains. To compensate, he usually carries his head low so he isn't staring down at his Brothers and sisters. His body is furless, covered instead in a thick, leathery skin studded with stones of various shades of brown, making him look like the walking mountain his height implies. His mane and tail, as if to make up for the lack of fur elsewhere, are generously full and usually fluffed. Both fade from a rich red-brown to a plesant shade of honey-gold. In the middle of Mekavan's forhead sprouts a gently-curving, rich green horn, similar to that of the Mountain kaasht's dragon form, and several ridges of the same rise between his shoulder-blades. His paws are great scoops with non-retractable claws of that dark green color, blunted from digging and constant use for walking, as well as his own preference for non- violence. Like the other natural Elementals, Mekavan is genderless, having both extra- furry tufts to his long, drooping ears and a thick mane, a masculine face contrasting with his feminine, fox-brush tail. His voice is the only thing that is definately gender-specific: his is a deep, rumbling bass, pleasant to the ear if one likes the lower registers. Because of this, and his own preferance, he generally goes by Brother among his Elemental siblings and has no qualms about being referred to as a he. On the whole, Mekavan is a pleasant creature, easy-going by nature and ready with a smile or a generous, rolling laugh. He is intensely stubborn, however, and in the worst manner possible: the calm, friendly manner. He can refuse to change his mind at any cost, but he does it with a smile and relaxed demeanor. He is slow-moving physically and to arrive at those decisions he stands by so sturdily often takes him months, even years, of deep, contemplative thinking. It isn't that he is lacking mentally, it is simply that he prefers to make sure he has something thought through completely, considered from all angles.
