Whip

Whip

Species: Elnin (Variable subtype)
Category: Tail Style

Tail MP: 4

Whip tails are tails that taper, similar to possum or chameleon tails. These tails are dexterous and prehensile, as well as capable of gripping items, hanging from things, etc. The biggest difference between whip and flare tails is that they lack the extra winglets on the end that accompany them and flare tails are not dexterous or prehensile at all.

Trait Examples

Mini Guides
whip-extra.png Whip Tail Examples - Whip (Fiendish) on top and Whip (Fae) on the bottom.

Details:

  • These tails can have a split at the very end of their tail, similar to a snake's tongue. Tails with a split at the end are not required to curl at the end like their non-split counterparts.
  • This tail style's thickness can vary but the tail base should never be thicker than the elnin’s body and must taper all the way down to the tail tip (or tips if the tail is split at the very end).
  • These tails are prehensile and can optionally curl or grip better than their similar but plumed flare tail counterparts.
  • It has been observed that the majority of whip tails have stripes along the tail's length but this is an optional feature.
  • Optional tail-base winglets present on this tail style must match the associated subtype.
  • Formerly for Faenin this was called the "Imp" tail style.

For Faenin / Whip (Fae) tails:

  • The winglets near the tail base would be butterfly or moth-like, and labeled "Fae".

For Djinnin / Whip (Fiendish) tails:

  • The winglets near the tail base would be batwing-like, and labeled "Fiendish".
  • This tail can optionally have a spade at the tail's tip(s).

For ??? / Whip (Feathered) tails:

  • The winglets near the tail base would be birdwing-like, and labeled "Feathered".

Notes:

  • If you switch out from a subtype tail style, then you will not be able to opt back in later. You can swap to another subtype tail style (within the same subtype) if you prefer, though.
  • For example: If you have a "Whip (Fae)" tail style you could switch it out for a "Flare (Fae)" style tail. You cannot switch across subtypes though, so a "Whip (Fiendish)" could not be swapped out for a "Whip (Fae)" or "Flare (Fae)" style tail, and so on.
  • If your elnin's Whip tail subtype is not specified please submit a support ticket to clarify which tail subtype your elnin has. If a tail subtype is not specified, this does not mean you can choose any tail subtype. Staff will have to determine which type your elnin was granted and make sure that detail is specified on the masterlist before a design approval goes through for that elnin.

Flare

Flare

Species: Elnin (Variable subtype)
Category: Tail Style

Tail MP: 4

Flare tails are flexible tails that taper and have additional winglet plumage at the end.

Trait Examples
flare-tail-1.jpgFlare (Fae)
flare-tail-2.jpgFlare (Fae)
flare-tail-3.jpgInfused size Flare (Fae)
Mini Guides
flare-extra.png Flare Tail Examples - Flare (Fiendish) on top and Flare (Fae) on the bottom.

Details:

  • Flare tails are flexible but they lack the extra muscle and dexterity that Whip tails have.
  • This tail style's thickness can vary but the tail base should never be thicker than the elnin’s body and must taper all the way down to the tail tip where the winglet plumage sits.
  • Flare tail sizing is measured from the base of the tail to the end of the winglet plumage, minus streamers.
  • Streamers are considered to be any small thin line drawn near a wing tip, and they must be kept very thin and minimal if they’re extending past the main part of the plumage.
  • The tail tip winglet plumage can appear to be two overlapping wing sets, but only at the very tip of the tail on flare style tails.
  • Tail tip winglet plumage and optional tail-base winglets present on this tail style must match the associated subtype.
  • Formerly for Faenin this was called the "Sylph" tail style.

For Faenin / Flare (Fae) tails:

  • The associated plumage would be butterfly or moth-like, and labeled "Fae".

For Djinnin / Flare (Fiendish) tails:

  • The associated plumage would be batwing-like, and labeled "Fiendish".
  • This tail can optionally have a spade at the tail's tip near the tail tip plumage. See the above mini guide's Flare (Fiendish) example.

For ??? / Flare (Feathered) tails:

  • The associated plumage would be birdwing-like, and labeled "Feathered".

Notes:

  • If you switch out from a subtype tail style, then you will not be able to opt back in later. You can swap to another subtype tail style (within the same subtype) if you prefer, though.
  • For example: If you have a "Flare (Fae)" tail style you could switch it out for a "Bulb (Fae)" style tail. You cannot switch across subtypes though, so a "Bulb (Fiendish)" could not be swapped out for a "Flare (Fae)" or "Whip (Fae)" style tail, and so on.
  • If your elnin's Flare tail subtype is not specified please submit a support ticket to clarify which tail subtype your elnin has. If a tail subtype is not specified, this does not mean you can choose any tail subtype. Staff will have to determine which type your elnin was granted and make sure that detail is specified on the masterlist before a design approval goes through for that elnin.
Bulb

Bulb

Species: Elnin (Variable subtype)
Category: Tail Style

Tail MP: 4

Bulb tails are thick tails with a stout shape and optional winglets corresponding to the related subtype at the tail base.

Trait Examples
bulb-tail-1.jpgBulb (Fae) w/ Colored Tip
bulb-tail-2.jpgBulb (Fae) Firefly Bulb
bulb-tail-3.jpgBulb (Fae) w/ Beetle Shell
bulb-tail-4.jpgBulb (Fae) w/ Starlit Suffusion
Mini Guides
bulb-extra.png Bulb Tail Examples - Bulb (Fiendish) on top and Bulb (Fae) on the bottom.

Details:

  • This tail's features vary depending on the associated subtype.
  • These tails cannot be larger than standard (1 MP) sized.
  • Optional tail-base winglets present on this tail style must match the associated subtype.
  • Formerly for Faenin this was called the "Puca" tail style.

For Faenin / Bulb (Fae) tails:

  • Bulb (Fae) tails are furred tails with a bulb shape. These tails can show markings partially while eventually fading into an anima-colored tip or they can simply be an anima-colored bulb, often resembling a firefly bulb that is also capable of glowing thanks to luminous anima. They will be labeled "Fae".
  • You can’t see the center of Bulb (fae) tails, since they aren't gummy with bubbles like anima. These tails are fleshy on the inside. The anima color more or less shows through a furred layer, which means only the color adjacent anima mutations will affect them. For example:
  • Prismatic Anima, Dual-toned Anima, and mutations with two (2) colors evenly (like heterochromia, odd-eyed, chimeric anima) would function with either a 50/50 gradient of both colors or either one of the colors solidly through.
  • The bulb on Bulb (Fae) tails should follow the base anima color essentially.
  • What else affects Bulb (Fae) tails? Luminous Anima, Emberglow Suffusion, and Starlit Suffusion all affect bulb tails for faenin.
  • What doesn’t affect Bulb (Fae) tails? Fae Accent Color, Decora Anima, Starlit Anima, and Emberglow Anima do not affect bulb tails for faenin.

For Djinnin / Bulb (Fiendish) tails:

  • The Bulb (Fiendish) tail style encompasses very short thick reptile-like tails (think gecko tails). This tail style is not limited to just a gecko-looking tail in texture, they can have tails that are bumpy or smooth.
  • The winglets near the tail base would be batwing-like, and labeled "Fiendish".

For ??? / Bulb (Feathered) tails:

  • The winglets near the tail base would be birdwing-like, and labeled "Feathered".

Notes:

  • If you switch out from a subtype tail style, then you will not be able to opt back in later. You can swap to another subtype tail style (within the same subtype) if you prefer, though.
  • For example: If you have a "Bulb (Fae)" tail style, you could switch it out for a "Flare (fae)" style tail. You cannot switch across subtypes though, so a "Bulb (Fiendish)" could not be swapped out for a "Bulb (Fae)" or "Flare (Fae)" style tail, and so on.
  • If your elnin's Bulb tail subtype is not specified please submit a support ticket to clarify which tail subtype your elnin has. If a tail subtype is not specified, this does not mean you can choose any tail subtype. Staff will have to determine which type your elnin was granted and make sure that detail is specified on the masterlist before a design approval goes through for that elnin.

Lore for Bulb (Fiendish):

Elnin can intentionally drop their tail but it would in some ways be a short-cut to the more standard mindful sizing down of an elnin's tail.

  • Tail "dropping" in this scenario is not painful to the elnin in any way and there is no blood!
  • The dropped tail will steadily shimmer away in the few minutes following it being dropped as the mana it held is shed. (And we are talking only a few like maybe 1-2 minutes.)
  • Any visible fleshy tail bits would heal relatively quickly back to show an elnin with just a smaller sized version of the tail in place of the one that was dropped. (Mana would like gore to be avoided in the group.)
  • Similar to scenarios when an elnin's hair is cut rather than shortened by their own will, this process is a bit tiring even if it is not painful. An elnin's mana isn't really being conserved here it's being tossed out in the short term. So while this might be a very fast way of decreasing tail size it's generally not the preferred method for elnin wanting to decrease their tail size.
  • Masterlist art cannot show a dropped tail.
  • At best this could make for a good prank, but shouldn't be blown out of proportion. ^^;; Please try to be reasonable. We want to allow for some fun here but if it ends up causing problems where people are submitting gore heavy prompts or obscuring backgrounds with tactfully placed dropped tails we may have to ask this be kept to side stories not pictured in the group.

Spellform

Spellform

Species: Elnin
Category: Crown

Crown MP: 4

Spellforms are similar to sigil crowns except that they are more structured in appearance, containing a border to contain it entirely.

Trait Examples
crown-spellform-1.jpg Spellform
crown-spellform-2.jpg Spellform
crown-spellform-3.jpg Spellform

Details:

  • Are bound within some type of design border (most often circular, but can have angular boundaries as well).
  • Spellforms can have multiple sections as long as they are all connected, and can contain symbols in both vertical and horizontal alignments.
  • Can also contain lines that create specific imagery (stars, moons, etc).

Mobility:

  • This type of crown is not exactly mobile, but it can bloom if based on flowers, or wilt or shift colors if it has leaves (following natural seasonal shadings).
Faerie Orb

Faerie Orb

Species: Elnin
Category: Crown

Crown MP: 4

Resembles a small glowing orb with faerie wings, not sentient.

Trait Examples
crown-fairy-orb-1.jpg Fairy Orb
crown-fairy-orb-2.jpg Fairy Orb
crown-fairy-orb-3.jpg Fairy Orb

Details:

  • Faerie orbs give off a glimmering sort of light and may also display subtle particle trails.

Lore:

  • This type of crown has some mobility, but can only occupy the space around an Elnin's head (resting on an ear, floating in different positions, etc). It cannot sit on the shoulder or back and must stay around the head. This does not currently apply to masterlist art. Please keep faerie orb crowns on the masterlist floating above the elnin's head.

Legacy:

  • Previously known as "Sprite", split from "Orbital"
Flora

Flora

Species: Elnin
Category: Crown

Crown MP: 4

Resembles a diminutive living plant or flower.

Trait Examples
crown-flora-1.jpg Flora
crown-flora-2.jpg Flora
crown-flora-3.jpg Flora

Details:

  • Flora crowns can cycle through the natural lifecycle of that flora.
  • Flowers should generally be no more than two (2) main flowers and a few buds.
    • Accompanying foliage is OK and won't read as a second plant as long as the foliage is cohesive/make sense. If it looks like it is a second plant then it is not acceptable.
      • YES: Roses with Thorns, Cherry Blossom with Branch/Twig.
      • NO: Tulip with Thorns, Cherry Blossoms with Ferns.
  • Only one stage of growth can be displayed at a time (no flowers and fruit together).

Mobility:

  • This type of crown is not exactly mobile, but it can bloom if based on flowers, or wilt or shift colors if it has leaves (following natural seasonal shadings).

Lore:

  • Flora crowns are actual plants, and can lose petals or provide pollen just like any other type of plant.
  • A fruit crown could, theoretically, be eaten, but it would be exceptionally disturbing for most elnins (not quite cannibalism level weirdness, but it would be like if someone wanted to eat your hair or fingernail clippings).

Legacy:

  • Previously known as "Living", split from "Orbital"
Fauna

Fauna

Species: Elnin
Category: Crown

Crown MP: 4

Resembles a diminutive living creature, not sentient. Can be things like fish, bugs, birds, frogs, etc. Any small, relatively simple animal would be acceptable.

Trait Examples
crown-fauna-1.jpg Axolotl
crown-fauna-2.jpg Bat
crown-fauna-3.jpg Fish

Details:

  • Rule of Palm: The creature in a fauna crown should be able to fit in the palm of your hand in its real-world equivalent. So something like a deer would obviously not fit in the palm of your hand, even if it's drawn to be miniature it would still not be allowed.
  • The designs of the animals should be simplified, rather than true-to-life versions. For example if your creature is a snake, you should not be drawing every scale on it and nictitating eyelids.
  • A small fantasy tweak can be added to the creature, but overall it should be a recognizable real-world animal. If you are submitting a fantasy-esque creature design please be aware that, if approved, it would be accepted into the canon of Eyre and considered a part of the World of Eyre. Any fauna crown creature design would be able to be drawn by other community members in prompts and activities.
  • Fauna crowns should not have more than one animal.
  • Bioluminescent fauna are acceptable for a crown as long as it remains on the crown and not be mistaken for another mutation or trait.

Lore:

  • This type of crown has some mobility, but can only occupy the space around an Elnin's head (resting on an ear, floating in different positions, etc). It cannot sit on the shoulder or back and must stay around the head.  This does not currently apply to masterlist art. Please keep fauna crowns on the masterlist floating above the elnin's head.

Legacy:

  • Previously known as "Mimic", split from "Orbital"
