Decided to do a quick sketch of Pettie as she appeared in the first story. I don't have a tablet atm, so a picture will have to do.

Some more info about Pettie (formally Petricia):
She's 6'4" (193cm), 28 years old, and her cup size is 32J.

Her Father is a Pelican morph, her mother is a Heron Morph and both were born before the cosmic morph event, whereas Pettie was born after. She features traits from both species, but largely identifies as a pelican, due to closeness with her father, who is a fisherman. Her mother is a scientist who has been in and out of her life. As time goes on, the connection to the original creatures humans morphed from becomes muddier due to such mixing. It's also unknown if every morph was originally a human as human genetics were mixed into the pool as well and every type of living creature was affected. Not all creatures were affected though, so there are still "regular" animals in the world, although this creates strange ethical ramifications when it comes to consumption. The sudden swelling of intelligent life caused huge ramifications around the world. All intelligent morphs maintain relative size with each other, ranging from hummingbirds to whales, but sizes are somewhat normalized, so a whale morph won't destroy a town the moment it steps foot in one and hummingbird morphs aren't so small that they can't co-exist in regular society. That doesn't exactly prevent crazy things from happening due to size difference though. Pettie's height is a direct result of her "large bird" heritage.

Pettie's mouth and throat are exceptionally flexible and her mouth pouch can expand significantly. She doesn't actually know her limits in this regard, but as far as she knows anything that can fit in her mouth can fit in her stomach. When unused, her pouch retracts and has the appearance of a normal beak.

Stunning artwork. I'm jealous! How large is this character compared to the other animal types?

Thank you! It's been a while since I've drawn anything, but Pettie's been a great muse. For her size, she's definitely significantly above average. If there was a size scale, whales would be a 10, anchovies/mice/hummingbirds would be a 1, Petty is probably a 7. Since most creatures on the planet are actually pretty small, when everything got averaged out in the big morph, the average person became a few feet shorter. I'll probably play around with sizes of morphs just to keep things interesting, but keeping Pettie larger gives me more room to play.
