Hey guys!
So to keep it simple and short
Does Elixir has a mascot? I know that the logo is pending trademark so people can’t use it right now (correct me if I’m wrong). So I thought about having a mascot, also as another way to warm the community, such as Go has Gopher, with a permissive license so people could do some customizations in it and use to promote the language without actually using it’s logo.
We could have some sort of alchemist. Just a discussion in what you guys think of having one.

You know, I’ve had a sketch for that for years that I never finished off – until tonight. Thanks for the encouragement. Drop managing all his little actors. (In retrospect, I should have had half of them carrying letters, looking for a mailbox to put them in…)

I was thinking about this too! I think IT HAS to do something related with alchemy. It just makes sense! I know a mascot means almost nothing to the language itself, but idk, it adds personality! Since it is a functional language, an owl (an alchemist own) would maybe be something nice? An owl makes no noise when flying, like elixir almost never crashes.
Owls have that “magic” feeling, and an alchemist purple owl holding a vial or something would be really cool! I wanted to generate an AI to have an idea, but I truly believe a human should make this haha. I found those on Pinterest! Maybe like a living object like a vial like this tea pot but in another form:
