What is a Velynn?
Velynns (pronounced [vehy-lynns]) are canine-like creatures most often known for their two soft tufts of feathers, one on their back between their shoulders, and one in place of their tails. The very first Velynns were created from particularly strong daydreams, thoughts, or ideas, and to this day those Velynns without parents come into existence through this same way. Being light and airy, much like thoughts and dreams, Velynns have been known to float, as they are in the lines. However, they never stop floating! A Velynn not held down will continue to float up and up forever, which doesn't often end well. Because of this, Velynns have always been given anchors of all colors to hang around their neck on a rope. This anchor allows them to walk and move normally on the ground, but it still allows them to levitate above the ground for short period of time, jump higher than normal, and seemingly drift around much more fluidly than any other similar species. If a Velynn was created from a particularly strong idea, it is not uncommon to see them surrounded with wisps of swirling, colored light, most often around their paws.
Other Little Details
--Their ears always are down, no matter what.
--Their feathers shed and regrow fairly quickly
--Their manes are most often the same, but there are sometimes Velynns with differently styled manes.
Staff Applications are open!
Velynns are finally getting some well-deserved new lines, and along with that, we'll be introducing some new staff! While this means that the previous v1 artists are no longer artists, this does mean that those of you who wanted to help without having to design can get a chance to get a different staff position within the species!
There are a couple positions open:
-Artist (again)
-Moderator
-Archivist
