Avus_Insectium

The lake was clear and blue. It was roughly four thirty, and it was mid afternoon. The sky above was clear and only a few clouds loomed. The day was Tuesday, and Avus was out on a hunting expedition. He was tasked by the Scara Brae guard to gather some fish for them, a humble task. One that Avus gladly accepted. He knew that work meant coin, and coin made the world go round. Avus had some fishing supplies with him, and worked to gather up a good amount of fish for himself and the watch.
As he gathered fish, he pulled his fishing net back in. Sorting through the fishing net was a process in itself. He carefully picked out the juiciest looking fish and would place the rest back in the lake. In that fashion, he'd gathered a decent amount of buckets full of fish. He'd been fishing for the better part of a day or two since arriving at Scara Brae. The fish in the lake were similar to Sardines. There were some other varieties too, like Herring and Mackerels. All had some sort of a value in place.
Avus tossed his net back in the lake, and felt his muscles tighten from the movement.
He was particularly strong. He stood there half naked, his scale covered physique reflecting the sunlight. Avus was a beastfolk. Most importantly he had the characteristics of a grasshopper. His scales were colored in earth tones and were quite sturdy. He had muscular definition, and his well defined hands gripped at the rope that was attached to his fishing net. He stood about knee deep in the lake as he worked his nets. His chest muscles bulging. Avus had an armored carapace that served as his primary line of defense. Further, his weapons were also organic in nature as they were long claws that protruded from his hands. He had three prehensile claw like fingers in each of his hands. His eyes glowed with an energy as he stared at the lake.
Fishing calmed Avus down.
He waited some time for his net to get full. It was a sturdy hemp material that produced a nice and thick rope. Avus waited until he felt that his net was heavy with the bounty of the lake. After that fact, he pulled his catch in and began to shift through the fish once more. In that fashion he worked all day until it was time to prepare his catch and head back to town...
