Traits
4 MP Crown (Or Lower)
This is only used for MYO stats. This means that your elnin can select one of the following:
Cloudlet
Crown MP: 4
Resembles a small cloud or wisp of smoke.
Details:
- Can be any color or combination of colors.
- Cloudlet crowns can have some particle effects, but should not have any additional features such as "eyespots" or solid items like moons/stars/suns/etc in them.
- Swirl designs are fine, but any pattering else you wouldn't normally associate with a little puff of smoke should be avoided.
- Must only be one wisp / cloud. The cloudlet should not be broken up into multiple pieces.
- Exception: a Hybrid Cloudlet crown can contain multiple cloudlets.
Legacy:
- Split from Elemental / Wisp
Faerie Orb
Crown MP: 4
Resembles a small glowing orb with faerie wings, not sentient.
- Examples: (ELN140, ELN1137, MYO-ELN265)
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"
Fauna
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.
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"
Flora
Crown MP: 4
Resembles a diminutive living plant or flower.
- Examples: (MYO-ELN038, ELN128, ELN500)
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.
- 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.
- 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"
Item (Legacy)
Crown MP: 4
This is a legacy crown. This crown is no longer obtainable. This crown will not pass through breedings.
Details:
- Legacy item crowns cannot be edited to different shape and remain the legacy crown type. Any adjustment would have to fit into a current crown type category that is not legacy.
Orbital (Legacy)
Crown MP: 4
This is a legacy crown. This crown is no longer obtainable. This crown will not pass through breedings.
Details:
- Legacy orbital crowns cannot be edited to different shape and remain the legacy crown type. Any adjustment would have to fit into a current crown type category that is not legacy.
Spellform
Crown MP: 4
Spellforms are similar to sigil crowns except that they are more structured in appearance, containing a border to contain it entirely.
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).
Treasure
Crown MP: 4
Treasure crowns are the upgraded version of Trinket crowns.
- Examples: (ELN1654, ELN1667, MYO-ELN339)
Details:
- Treasure crowns are:
- Complex items
- Items that are large in size
- A mix of different items that read as one cohesive item.
- An item accompanied by very minimal jewelry embellishments.
- Treasure crowns should be attached as one piece.
- Treasure crowns may not resemble weapons without knight or champion training.
- If there are diadem traits shown as a part of a treasure crown, then it will be considered a hybrid crown. If you want to do a plush crown, that’s acceptable here as it is not acceptable in the diadem tier.
Legacy:
- Previously known as Item/Bauble/Trinket.
Witchlight
Crown MP: 4
Treasure crowns are the upgraded version of Trinket crowns.
Details:
- Can be any color or combination of colors.
- Witchlight crowns can have some particle/glow effects.
- Fire edges should appear sharp to avoid being confused for a cloudlet crown!
- Any patterning you wouldn't normally associate with a little ball of fire should be avoided.
- There should be no eyespots present.
Lore:
- Elnins can use witchlight crowns to ignite items stuck into them at will, and the resulting flame will burn the color of the crown for quite some time before eventually returning to the orange hues of an ordinary fire. This means that an elnin with a witchlight crown is often a welcome member of any expeditionary party, since they can light a campfire with very little fuss.
Legacy:
