|| Socorros ||
Welcome traveller, to the Socorros adoption thread! Here, you can adopt a Socorros, breed two of your existing Socorrosi to create a little of sweet little pups, or order a custom Socorros of your favorite character or fursona.
|| Prices ||
You see, Zax and rowdy have devised a simple pattern of payments for each action here at the Socorros thread:
~ Adoption = Free!
~ Breeding = One WL pet for the artist that creates the pups.
~ Customs = Depending on the complexity, the price varies.
(Note: Custom slots are few and far between, due to Zax and rowdy's lack of time.)
|| Rules for Owners of Socorrosi ||
~ At the moment, there is a limit four Socorrosi being owned at one time.
~ There may be a Socorros roleplay soon, but we are not starting it until we know there will be members.
~ When you breed a pair of Socorrosi, they must each belong to you.
~ Please don't complain if didn't get the one you wanted, we try to make these as often as we can.
|| A Bit of History ||
The species you see above is none other than the Socorros, a hybrid breed which is a distant descendant of the Andrisarc, a hooved wolf. This breed has adapted to its environment over the years into the fast, strong, and majestic canine it is today. There are some flaws that still need to be worked out, but that will take some time. Socorrosi originated in the Himalayan Mountains in the form of Andrisarcs. These canines were fast, well balanced, and incredibly agile for their type of animal. This was most likely because of their hooves for balance and smaller body masses for less wind resistance. For a while, they lived happily in the mountains, feasting on river fish and small animals hidden in crevices. They were, however, driven out of the mountains by the colder weather that had been slowly increasing in severity. Once down into the warmer parts of Europe and Asia, they began to adapt to life in the jungle and grasslands. This required them to lose their hooves and develop sturdy, flexible paws and short tails instead of long ones. Their heads have gotten smaller, and their fur has become thinner. For some reason though, their fur is the same length. This is what makes up the Socorros of modern day. They have since then spread out to Africa, Eastern Asia, Western Europe, and Australia. This base on the Australian coast harbors these creatures for study and repopulation as their numbers have dwindled over the past decade.
|| Physical Description ||
These hybrids are very deer like. They have long, thin legs with smaller, but very balanced paws. The neck is longer, the barrel of their chest is bigger, and the tail is of a short, whip-like variety.
There are never solid colored Socorrosi. This is a genetic anomaly that is exceedingly rare. This mutation is literally a 1 in 1000 chance of having it. It is caused by a hereditary lack of enzymes which "proofread" the DNA. This is a specific insertion mutation.
There have been some reports of Socorrosi having long tails in the wild. This is a possibility, but hasn't been photographed or recorded in any way. Note that this is a trait that may or may not be real in the species.
