* Speaking of mutants, there's the Mutant Hissi, which sprouts an extra head which, [[DependingOnTheWriter depending on who you ask]], can act [[MultipleHeadCase independently of the original]]. What happens to that second individual if that Mutant Hissi gets re-painted and, thus, reduced to only one head again?

*** In some cases, the reasoning for the overzealous censorship falls under not even Fridge Horror; [[AdultFear just plain horror]]. For instance, it was a minor meme in the community about how the word "Uncle" was inexplicably censored for years, until some staff members clarified exactly why -- before that particular word was blocked, it was being used as a code word by [[PaedoHunt some very unsavory users]].

** Remember that he's probably just short due to his species. All members of the same species on Neopets are the same height (with Buzz being the shortest and Eeyries being the tallest). As for the shut eyes, is he an Aisha? 'Cause if he is, that's likely another species trait. And, like you said, he's furry and that colour was just picked randomly. If you're thinking of Shenkuu, if you look under the Book of Ages, you'll see it's not based on Asia today, but it's instead based on ''medieval'' Asia.
