Well, look at what an animal uses it's tail for. Mostly balance. So, with
that as a constant, what would people use it for, mostly balance. Ok, now
people aren't -used to- having a tail, so it would end up (As the mighty
Calvin once said) being a necktie for your butt.
It makes a definitive look. (Would a classic 'devil' be the same without a
tail? How about Godzilla?)
But, back to the tail. the 'shadowfurry' tails are fairly articulated,
enough to use as a 'limited' arm (IE : you can't exactally fire a gun with
it, but you can hold yourself onto a pipe or something.)
Hanging from the celing by your tail... Hmm... Playin' 'Possum? Now
THATS muscle control...

Heh. How 'bout while he was hanging by it? :X)

"It's not like talking with people. With people, anything can be said and
nothing matters. Words and words and words. You go to a party... people
sit around and say things. Anything. Just to talk. Put forth views and
debate them. Sometimes you get a new idea. Sometimes something changes"
