Hey all!! I was given permission from Sixbane to create a new thread for these guys for those who are interested in them!!
Sixbane is still the rightful owner of the species but has allowed for me to run them on CS!

(They are a free species, and will remain so, but are a closed species!)

Please note- I will never accuse or attack you for having something similar! They're not the most unique in appearance- its the community and lore that's important. Just be considerate and don't claim your character is involved in the species if it isn't; Common courtesy and all that.

Species overview

Mimic Fey, more commonly known in layman's terms as "Flying Foxes" are a type of very small fairy spirit from the world of Isethef. Long ago, they were a race of shapeshifters who were often subject to scorn and distaste from other fey folk for their willingness to cooperate with humans, and had to adapt to survive in a changing world. While others of their kind ran from humans, Mimic Fey did not. They took on the shape of common human pets to appeal to them, learned the human's tongues, and became valuable assistants and familiars to them. Living in symbiosis with humans to keep themselves safe, and offer a magical hand to their human partners. They are a friendly, somewhat skittish race that has now lost most of its magic prowess from many generations of disuse. Including, the loss of their shapeshifting ability. They are now permanently resembling a small bat-fox creature, and the only thing marking them as feyfolk is the glowing "eye" on their chest, known as a Fey Eye. This allows them the ability to sense anomalies in the magical world, but it is very sensitive to damage and light and often covered for the safety of the creature. This comes in especially handy for sorcerers and makes them popular as companions for mages. 

They are intelligent creatures who live alongside humans of all sorts, but they are capable of living on their own or forming small societies! This is just more uncommon as they forfeit safety for that freedom and many aren't willing to attempt life on their own or in the wild. They live on small berries, scraps of food from humans, and can also absorb stray magic to survive. They have long lifespans (being supernatural creatures), and usually live to be around 70, making them often lifelong friends for the humans who protect them. 

They are energetic, determined creatures with a lot of heart! They'd absolutely love to have a new home with you!

What makes a flying fox- a flying fox?
A flying fox isn't necessarily the most interesting creature to look at- what makes them important is where they come from and the importance of their place in the world in which they live! They do have a few specific traits that nearly every one will have.
Please note- I will never accuse or attack you for having something similar! They're not the most unique in appearance- its the community and lore that's important. Just be considerate and don't claim your character is involved in the species if it isn't; Common courtesy and all that. 

Eyes will always glow in the dark!
A flying fox's eyes appear normal in a lighted area, its only when its dark out that their colors truly show! A flying fox's eyes will glow at night, as they are spirits and the darkness urges the magic they still possess (deeeeep in their ancestry line!) forward. They forgot most of their magical abilities- but being able to see in the dark....well that's just a handy practical tool.
They can often control the brightness, but can never 'turn off' their glowing eyes completely. They'd probably make a handy-dandy flashlight in a pinch!

A Fey-eye on the neck
One of a flying fox's most important trait- is their Fey-Eye. This is a magical 'sensor' of sorts that allows them to sense loose magic and spiritual beings. This is the most valuable trait they can offer to their human friends in assistance- as most mortals can't see into this realm! These eyes are almost always located on the neck, and very rarely elsewhere. They are similar in appearance to a fairy ring, and may appear in different variations, but most commonly are depicted as below. They most often are the same color as the creature's eyes.

Mimic Fey are very small!
Even in their ancient days, Mimic fey weren't very large creatures! Their extremely small stature is what often led them to being preyed on by other spirits, and led them to where they are now. They are tiny creatures, easily fitting in a pocket or hand. They might be tiny- but don't be fooled! They're quite strong and can easily lift their own weight if needbe. Their wings are small- but powerful. Their wings adapted as a form of movement, since their small size didn't do much to assist them in escaping and flight offered an alternative to keep themselves out of trouble (or being stepped on. )
They aren't generally shy, but some may be more relaxed about being handled than others.
