Probably, maybe not unique, but I like to think my endurance is special, I am in pretty good physical shape. Going to do the half marathon this year, hoping for the marathon next year. :D

My likeness has been compared to that of a bugbear or dwarf. mostly dwarf cause of the long thick hair, long thick goatee, stocky build & funny waddle/stomp i get when i stop paying attention to my walking.

i also have a weird accent. for those that have never really been in my neck of Canada, most of the french folks here are Acadians or of Acadian decent, myself included being 100% pure french acadian. when i'm talking english i have a very distinct twang to my voice that seems to stick out.

Thanks.

Depends on the distance I intend to run. My typical training pace is about 9:00, but that always changes on race day. Last year I ran two 5Ks. The first one I came in just over 24:00 minutes, and the second one just under 24:00 minutes; the second one was a slightly easier course, but I was also feeling under the weather. My goal for the year is to do a 5K in 21:00 flat. I think I will be able to do that on the second course, minus the flu I had last year.

My goal for my first half marathon this year is 2 hours, but I will be happy to finish.

For born in features I'd have to say my red hair and glorious green eyes! (And my modesty! :P)

For add-ons my oddest features are the fact that I have a great scar across the back of my head that parts my hair until it's long enough to reach my shoulders and my one and a half fingers gone. (That's why I don't type too much even though I hang out quite a bit- I'm too lazy to re-learn typing)

And no, they didn't all happen at the same time. I don't always pay much attention to my surroundings unfortunately. My gravestone will say something like, "Huh, never saw that coming."

I've been told that I can be overly opimistic in an annoy way. Haha oh well I'm proud of it ;) .

I have eyes that keep changing from blue to green. I have NO IDEA how I got them, as no one in my family has them except my brother (so it must be hereditary... but from where?)

Oh, and I can't snap my fingers. Go figure.

Well, I'm built like a 5'11'' dwarf... Seriously. I've got an 18 inch neck, a 52 inch chest, and forearms like Popeye, lol. I've got the structural integrity of a Terminator robot.

My eyes usually appear either grey, green, or brown depending on the light, but they're actually really funky-looking. They're ice blue with a thin grey ring around the outside, and a yellow sun-burst sort of thing around the iris, with brown and black striations radiating out from that. And there's also some random black and gold dots as well.
You wouldn't believe how hard it is to take a decent picture of your own eye, but they look something like this...

Sort of looks like a sunflower, doesn't it?

I have a scar on my face that starts just under the left side of my left eye and goes down my face for about an inch. My eyes will sometimes change colors a bit. Usually from a yellow like green to a bluish green. Sometimes it will be green on the inside or outside and yellowish in the other area. Right now they are a bluish green color on the outside and a yellowish on the inside.

My hair changes colors. Sometimes it is a vibrant red, other times it is a dull brown. Sometimes it has hints of blonde. It changes based on lighting and the chemicals in the shampoo I use. So I just call it auburn because it is easier.

My eyes don't change color, per se, but they are brown with some green in them that is hard to spot under most lighting.

Um, people are born with one appendix. Though there are two tonsils, but tonsils are usually considered vestigial, so it is possible to live normally with none.

I once knew a gal with the same. That means I know who you are, right?

If I had to pick an intersting feature, it would probably be my eyes. They're very blue. People seem to like 'em. So that's it, I guess.

Raven-black hair, dark eyes, pale skin. I coulda been an emo! Darn. : P

I'm double-jointed. On either hand, I can bend my finger back to my wrist. I can also transform my hands into twisted old-crone claws by bending the last joints on each finger, and 'popping' the base joints of my thumbs in.

The ladies love that, let me tell you. Never fails to impress.

Also: I demand that Crossroads posts pictures. Super-long hair = coolest thing ever.

She has her pics up on the "What race/class are you" thread in the D&D general forum.

Holy geez, that is long. And bright.

Crossroads: have you pretty much been growing your hair out your whole life? If I had my way, I'd have an ass-long stage magician's ponytail (dudes with ponytails are cool and you know it), but I can't get my hair past my shoulders. Should I be trimming the ends more often or something? I've been told that's supposed to help.

One of my ears is flat up against my head. The other sticks out closer to perpendicular. Yep - I have noticeably assymetical ears.

Yeah, I've trimmed my hair several times, but it was long even before I started doing that. I really haven't trimmed my hair enough, and so the ends are uneven. Trimming will help some people, but some other people just can't get it to grow past a certain point.

I dunno. Who's in charge of this stuff? I don't want to p*ss all the hair gods off; the hair I've got is cool. Jet black, shiny, full-bodied, etc. Travolta-level length and awesomeness-magnitude.

I'd post pictures if I could make it work (it'd be a sin to hide it from the world, really), but I even set up a photobucket account one time for exactly that purpose and the links didn't work in my 'Preview Post' when I tried to include them here.

You find the link that you want to post by going to the properties of the picture. The problem I kept having was that one of the lines of the link was hidden and I had to highlight downward to reveal it.

My hair changes colors. Sometimes it is a vibrant red, other times it is a dull brown. Sometimes it has hints of blonde.

My beard is sort of like that - except every piece of hair is a different color on a different day... Patches of my beard go from black through red, blonde, all the way to white, and except for the patch that always grows fire-engine red (which is the only way you can really tell I have a large birthmark on my right cheekbone, it's almost invisible if I'm clean-shaven) I never know just what colors will be where.

If I stop shaving for about two or three weeks, it looks like I'm eating a calico cat, lol.

Do Tattoos count?

If they do, I have a buffalo skull wearing a native american headdress that stretches the length of my right bicep.

Also, my blue eyes turn green when I'm horny. (Not trying to be sexual there just stating a fact.)

Thats the first thing that everybody asks and ironically I am actually quite poor at swimming. I've nearly drowned numerous times in the lake I lived across the street from when I was younger and as a result I didn't learn how to swim until 3 years ago.
