    Is there a reason that the Gorowyn Weathervane has a rooster on top?

    I mean, let's face it, chickens aren't a common sight around Gorowyn. Wouldn't a lizard have been more appropriate? o_O

    Maybe it's a cockatrice. ;)

    That look like a cockatrice to you?

    I'm not objecting to a chicken being on a weathervane - in a society where it makes sense. Chickens don't really make sense on a Gorowyn weathervane, lizards would - and their craftwork should probably reflect that.

    There was a wink emote at the end of my suggestion, in case you missed it. Cockatrices are the closest thing we have to that, so it was merely a play on the first half of the word. Not meant to be all serious.

    I meant to put an emote at the end of my question, but I was in a hurry*. Didn't mean it to sound as confrontational as it probably came across.

    Read it again, but put a :p right after the question mark. That is how I intended for it to come across.

    * I had my fill settings set too high on PDN, so rather than try to remember how to tweak it, I made an outline in the color of the background around the rooster, then filled the outer portion with that color (it was originally the bluish shade from the Dressing Room window). Since that took me a while, I was in a rush to get the post up and head out adventuring with a guild member.

    Did you not see all the aviaks at the beginning of timeous questline? If i build farm and stick a weathervane up I dont want a lizard lol they won't spin worth a ding dong. Featherless, hairless varmints are better for making shoes and purses.:)

    Horse would work. =P I've seen weathervanes with horses, and there are horses all over the place in Norath.. although if we're talkin about making a whole new weathervane.. how bout a griffon? =P

    I vote for a Halfling weathervane. With its legs and arms sticking straight out, i'm sure it would catch enough wind to spin...;p

    I wish I could give double ... oh no, multi multi likes for this ^^.
    It gave me an unexpected laugh attack. :)

    while you are fashioning- can you please come up with a pedestal that looks like it was made of stone colored bricks?

    I can't promise anything. I don't even know if I'll be able to find the time to fashion the dragon's head weathervane. Haven't had as much free time since my wife started her new job (since I don't want the kids destroying the house).
