Why do most White Wolf Keidran have pawpads on their hands?

#1 Post by Kaz »

Looking at Keidran Raine, Isaac, and Keidran Mary Silverlocke (Euchre not listed because we never got a good look at his hands), they all have pawpads on their hands.

However, neither tiger Keidran, fox Keidran, dog/forest wolf Keidran nor Basitins have pawpads.

Is there a reason as to why the white Wolf Keidran have them while others do not?

Update: Apparently Roselyn does not have pawpads. How could I forget about her? Oh wait, she only appeared in 2-3 strips.

I have no idea. Perhaps it's an artistic choice by Tom.

That's my guess too. I certainly see no biological reason why white wolves would have pawpads and other colors not. They're all supposed to be the same species, after all. Additionally, while Mary, Raine, and Issac have pawpads, the other white wolf we've seen, Rose, doesn't.

Perhaps it might be for extra gripping on ice/snow? That would be very useful to have. Home field advantage against anybody attempting to attack them in a snowy area. Or it could all just be for looks, who knows?

One thing will only be known!
Tom added pawpads to Isaac afterwards.

Necro relevation of the true logic of this statement.

You can thank Tom for that.

I believe Kaz is asking for a link to a panel with Isaac not having pawpads, because your first comment seems to be saying that there is a previous panel with Isaac without pawpads.

Exactly. Some proof that shows Isaac did not have pawpads. Otherwise, I'd just have to go off of your word, which I find very unreliable. (I have severe trust issues).

The issue is that it got updated and since its an image, the wayback machine site cant tell us because its made 11. Also, compare that peice of detail to the rest of the panel. If you look closely, the earlier panel shows he have White hands and no black pawpads.

1) The Wayback Machine caches images liek a boss.
2) There is no proof in the image that the pawpads were added later. Tom forgets to add in tiny details all the time. (No offense to you, Master). It could also be that Isaac's staff/curled hand is blocking our view of the pawpad.
3) Nobody is trustful.
