General Information
Cryphic foxes, which belong in the same species family as Vulpes lagopus (the Arctic fox) were originally created in the 1700's and are normally very docile creatures. Unlike other fox species, wild Cry foxes tend to be quiet, kept to themselves, yet they usually travel and live as a pack. Family foxes are generally the only ones any fox will interact with for longer than a slight glance, let alone on a daily basis. Cry foxes often have a cold, cruel demeanor. Even though they're so stubborn and cold, this doesn't make them violent creatures. These foxes never harm any other fox that is from their pack, and if a fox were to do so- the pack leader could denounce him/her and declare them banned from the group.
Cry foxes, although self-sustainable and independent, can be quite hard to manage. Their instinct is to always escape captivity and stay away from confinement. Whenever a fox is restricted to one area or is not allowed to go to another, they want to and try to break those boundaries- most of the time by simply crossing them and going into said restricted territory. Cryphic foxes tend to be quite the trouble-makers. Meaning that if a fox is banned from their group, or has an enemy territory where their foes reside, they will more than likely cause trouble and push the limits. Thieving, capturing, and destruction are the only ways a fox will interact with another when there is a dispute.
Small-time feuds between foxes among different packs often lead to pack battles, or war if you should. Each pack will destroy and capture anything they can that belongs to their enemy, and the first one to become obliterated must accept defeat and move on to a new territory.
Physical Traits and Abilities
All Cry foxes have very thick, long fur which allows them to live in very cold environments. Every fox can have a different ear type or tail type, there are hundreds of combinations- many of which haven't been discovered. Below, you will find a list of all the traits that have been found on foxes. New traits are always being found, and scientists of Kinashi are always quick to record any new differences in foxes they might find.
These foxes love to swim, exercise, explore, and get into as much trouble as they can. The average fox can hold their breath for at least 2 minutes, allowing them to fish for food if necessary. On land, Cry foxes hunt for any food they can find that they can tackle. The fastest recorded speed of a Cry fox was 37mph (~59km/h), but most of these animals run a maximum speed of 33mph (~53km/h). If food is low in a pack and there is hunger among foxes, hunter foxes will lead hunting expeditions where they may try to kill and obtain larger prey to bring home. Sometimes, they guess wrong about their abilities and end their hunt with nothing to bring back to the pack but scars and occasionally, news about a familiar fox who wasn't able to make it home.
History
Over 300 years ago scientists discovered the snow barren land we know as Kinashi. They introduced the common arctic fox into the land and that simply did not work. Through genetic mutation and alternation, the scientists managed to create foxes that would be able to live and sustain their lives in the arctic region. The foxes these scientists created lived wild in Kinashi and slowly their populations grew and scientists noticed very odd behavior from the foxes.
The animals had adapted immensely and quickly to the environment but also seemed to have a leap of intelligence. Suddenly, instead of wild random foxes roaming by themselves the scientists watched packs and clans of foxes slowly grow, take down bigger and larger enemies, and work together to make the best of their lives. They became the best of scavengers, the foxes had a system of cultivation in the warmer months and hoarded food for the colder months. Homes and shelter were created to stay under and keep their belongings. Not only were the creatures improving their skills and lives, they were also destroying them at the same time.
As one clan appeared and came together, another one fell and was torn apart. It happened faster than the scientists could keep track. These foxes have obtained a sense of heightened anger towards any other animal that might get in their way and usually end up lashing out aggressively. About 35 years into the scientists experiments, a war broke out between all of the clans, rightfully named the Battle of Fools. At this time there were 3 major clans: The Ice Mountain Kin, The Iglis Clan, and the Aquiris Warriors. By the end there was only the Iglis clan and a few minor clans that did not get involved. Most of the foxes from the Ice Mountain Kin and the Aquiris Warriors were forced to stay away and be a stray in Kinashi, or were held as prisoners in the other clans.

Traits are defined by their tier and rarity. There are three tiers of traits, and a fox can have at least one trait from each tier. The first tier, primary, consists of tails. The secondary tier consists of ears. In the tertiary tier you'll find wings, horns, etc.
You can tell the rarity of each trait by the color it hosts. It's simple! Very common/common traits will be a salmon-pink (#ff8c8c). Uncommon traits will be yellow (#fdff78). Rare traits will be a light teal (#78ffcb), and any very rare traits will be green (#4aff57).
