Could be the 'Growl' emote that came with the Mutant Pack. I think that's the one but it puts the character on all fours.
Still, that's a neat costume.

I didn't make it in time.
But in the wiki you get to see hilarious "moving" hair.
Interesting. Where does the fox "outfit" come from? And thanks for the responses.
Am I the only one who thought for a moment that that wasn't a CoH avatar because the costume was so well done to make it look like an animal?

When I first saw it I thought maybe it was a vet pet or some such. But then I noticed an actual character under there. It's late at night and I'm a bit tired so it was quite surprising to see.

I did. The more I look at it, I can see what they've done but it did make me look twice. |

Darn. I thought they were finally adding more creations into the game. I think the only animal we have currently are seagulls. |

And, yeah, I too was taken aback by the costume. At first glance, I thought it was a hoax of some sort, posting a screenshot that's not even from City of Heroes. But I recognised the tail, then the ears, then the legs, then finally the Dagger pattern on the gloves.
It's a very well-made design, definitely, but I don't think it's something I'd want to copy. It involves using a breather as a snout, which a breather is not. The shot doesn't really highlight how out of place it looks from that angle, but nah. I might consider it if and when we get proper animal snouts.
In the meantime, I'm too busy making a quite literal cow girl.

Ooooh this is so neat! Its like an in-game bigfoot sighting! Or the Jersey devil! Whatever it is, it's exciting!
I saw player = Vulpine (I think that was the name) during the PERC Costume Contest in Pocket D on Triumph over the weekend. She passed the first screening. Unfortunately, I didn't make the cut, so I didn't hang around to see how she did.
Teams are the number one killer of soloists.
