Maybe even a pet. My own character, Joshu Tabris, has an albino king cobra, for example. Besides the obvious indications of deception and trickery-he pefers planning and manipulation to brute force-it also indicates the occult (he's a warlock), and wisdom (he's actually quite alturistic, if a bit misanthropic). Dark is not evil, after all, and he's the living embodiment of that. So, any other examples?
