Nevill based on this drawing by nightcrawler!
by rainbowpanda101 @ Sun Dec 06, 2020 8:45 pm [Reply]

Nevill, who prefers the shorter nickname Nev, is a super chill guy who loves playing videogames.
He has a huge, well cushioned papasan chair that he lounges in while he's playing games.
Nev has a Twitch account that he streams on regularly. He's become quite popular for his lackadaisical attitude.
The bandana is optional. The beanie is not, as Nev never takes it off.

concept?
by zigazag @ Sun Dec 06, 2020 1:00 pm [Reply]

so I've had an idea for this species for a few months now, and I finally decided I want to try and see what others think of it! also I swear it didnt take me an hour to sketch these lol

I havent found a name, but its between Chirbits (preferred) and Slinkies, both found on some random word generator + mixed up a bit. I'll use Chirbits/Chirps in the information below!

Chirbits are a long, flexible, cat-like creatures. Their paw pads are adhesive (think gecko) and allow them to easily scale steep climbs. When trying to find a mate, Chirps will fill themselves up with air to make themselves appear larger. The more rotund the Chirp becomes, the more successful they are! A Chirbit's bendy bones greatly contributes to the Chirp's flexibility. Their bones are stiff enough to hold the Chirbit together, but flexible enough to decrease breakage rates and contort their bodies into strange positions. A Chirbit's face almost resembles that of an owl, with their wider bone structure. Their very raptor-like feet also help solidfy the resemblance.

Currently, there are four types of Chirbit: Domesticated (portrayed here), Wild, Aquatic, and Monstrous. Each looks slightly different than the other types. These types are also split into different classifications: Friendly, Aggressive, Curious, and Neutral (which, finally, all have 10 different personality types, though I won't go into those yet).

I'm toying with the idea of introducing ARPG elements to it to make it more fun!

Anyways, what do you guys think? I have an entire multi-page google doc with more information, ideas, and other stuff that I might share at some point! If I do decide to make these dudes into a species, it'll be a while before everything is ready (as the species ties into my wolrd-building project, Abisdeon)!

Thoughts, comments, questions, etc. can be posted below! C:

Another new character! ~<3 He is so awesome! ~<3

Say hello to Williregton! He also goes by Will. His best friend is Thathrothwyn
Will doesn't eat like most animals - he photosynthesizes! The chlorophyll in his skin/fur is what makes him green.
He enjoys dirt and mud baths and uses his claws to dig up dirt and mud to cover himself in.
Sometimes he gets so buried in dirt and mud that all you can see is his mask-like face.
His neck is covered in very fine fur that is amazingly soft to the touch.

Hard days

but it'll be alright

Do you every think about how cringey your past self is? Don't get me wrong, I am still astounding amounts of cringe myself but past me was swimming in it. At one point I had complimeted one of Racoon Bandit's pieces by saying something along the lines of "explodes by amazingness"... I think about that a lot.

BadgerBuddies @ Sun Dec 06, 2020 5:24 pm

Yo wings are mad hard to draw but you did a great job!!! You should be super proud of yourself<333

To answer your question tho,,, I think about how cringey of a human I am,,, all the time,,, bc I do cringey things on a daily basis who thought it would be a good idea to release me into the world

The Gap | Demon Dogs | [Updated Lore?]
by 86Eternity @ Wed Dec 02, 2020 4:27 am [Reply]

Huh the lines improved just a little.

There's a lot of adjusting/clearing up I need to do with this, if I'll even do something with this ahah. I'm still deciding.

Drop a message down below if,, I don't know, you'd be interested if I kicked this species back up again.
The old adopts didn't really have a rarity system, but I might add something like that.

Name?
Naturally, they won't just be called demon dogs ahah, though I'll probably refer to them as that just out of ease.
Previously they were 'Canis Daemonium' but honestly, the sloppy Latin translation just doesn't do it for me anymore ahah

Rarity stuff
Instead of having different mutations/line edits with different rarity, each 'group' or 'type' of hound will have a different rarity, and there will be a set list of mutations within that. I'm still working out the details of all that.
So they'll be sorted by tiers and there will be a percentage chance of scoring each one.

I tend to get a little bored/restricted with rarity systems most of the time, so hybrids between each tier might be more common. Maybe the rarity will be more defined by hybrids than anything else? Idk man

City- Most common
Grungey, glowy, scrappier designs. The kinda thing you'd expect to see out on the city streets. More modern apparel, glowing markings, mechanic limbs, you know the stuff. Dark, contrasting designs, neons and all that are common within this tier.

Lost-
Long fur, chains, flowy designs, glowy designs are also quite common here. Wings and feathers are common within the lost tier. Overgrown and elemental designs are also to be expected within this tier. Pale, ghost-like designs are most common.

Primal-
Naturalistic, aggressive designs. Bright colours in combination with natural bases, large teeth and claws, scars, missing limbs and tufty fur, short tails and bulkier forms. Physical weight edits, pointy ears are standard with primal hounds. Everything about primal hounds looks a little rough and survival-driven.

[Will have a concept here later I'm tired right now. ;;]
Ascended- Least common
Translucent limbs, long glowing trails and dark star-like designs. Goop/sludge, whatever you wanna call it, fins, multiple limbs, multiple eyes, eyes in random places,, anything that'll make you think gods/celestial.

Hybrids
The main demand/rarity will most likely be hybrids instead of specific traits, at least if I can pull it off ahah. The standard/common rarity would be a non-hybrid, uncommon would be a hybrid of two types, rare a hybrid of three, and limited a hybrid of all four.
I may add more types later. :>
If breeding happens, I'll work something out for how commonly 'expressive' or 'recessive' hybrids occur. Genetics are uh,, fun but a little complicated, so I'm not sure how far I'll stray into that ahah.

A different approach to 'closed species'
As anyone could point out, this 'species' as a whole isn't exactly anything groundbreaking or new, in fact, I'm pretty sure anything could come up with a design like this, it's been done millions of times before and will be done millions of times after this. I'm not gonna really call this a closed species, nor chase anyone up who has similar concepts/ideas because the high chance is, they're completely unrelated. The plus of getting one of these adopts will be the aspect of community rather than getting some new and groundbreaking.

I don't have a great track record with closed species or anything like that, so you guys are gonna have to be a little patient with me ahah, but hey, if these turn out to be successful that'd be pretty neat.

When you own one of these guys, you don't even have to keep them as part of the species, honestly, I'm not going to have any strict rules on reselling or trading. You're pretty much free to change up whatever you like, just keep in mind that their original designs will be used when taking part in anything to do with the species.
You're free to create humanoid designs, anthros, etc etc based off the design you got. [May depend on individual artist rules]

I find personally, I'm often not quite sure what to do with closed species I get on CS. As a worldbuilder I'm never really sure how and if I can integrate them into the rest of my world, or if I'd even be allowed to do that.
I'm not sure if other people have the same issue, but I'd like to see these designs more integrated, not just shoved off into a closed species folder with no idea what to do with them.

Anyway! Feel free to let me know your thoughts on this kinda thing ahah. I'd love to be able to discuss this with some people, especially those who might be interested in the species as a whole.
