What is a Keardor?
A Keardor is a smaller cousin species of the Kora. It is a type of big cat with a bright spirit and a love for feathers. Keardors are partially feathered themselves, usually at their rears and cheeks. Crown and ankle feathers are less common. They have feathery dorsal manes that rut backwards or upright. They are short at the head and never fall forward. Their tails are huge and plumy, and they take great pride in this feature. Keardors, like Koras, often have spots, but significantly fewer. They usually stay restricted to paws, face, and/or rear. Keardors are quite outgoing and lovable, though very finicky about choosing a master.
Perhaps, you can be their companion of choice.

Because I totally need to run two species. I did temporarily close one center though. I'm not happy with it but don't want to have it locked up either!

-Rules-
-Respect me, don't steal the species, yadda yadda
-Yes, they're spotted, have a dorsal mane, and wear a couple feathers sometimes. Some might think omg Kiamara copy! But I think they're different enough to class as a separate animal. I've seen species much more similar
-You may own 8 Keardors, and have 2 nursery "hold" slots (when I get that up and running, anyways)
-Hold slots are where you may temporarily keep your Kear cubs until you have fully decided what to do with them! Cubs in these hold spots do not count as "yours" until you officially state that you're keeping them
-You may gift these with my permission. Trades are allowed, but again, only with permission
-Keardors can take other species as mates, but may not have children with them! The only exception to this is Koras. However, though the cubs (called Kearas) will be their own species and able to breed, they cannot breed to other Kearas because of a genetics flaw, and breeding them back to Koras or Keardors will most likely create more cubs of the original species, not Kearas. There will also never be more than one Keara per litter
-I am not doing Keardor customs
-Love and take care of your Keardors!
-Do not ask to be staff
-I will add rules as needed!

-Guest Artist Rules-
-You're here for a month. Make as many or as few as you'd like until then. Just make sure you don't put down more than you can deal with!
-Put some effort into these designs c: you should not have to say you rushed one because you wanted to post it before a weekend vacation/internet shut off for a day/etc. The design can wait! Trust me, people will wait if it means a non-rushed design
-You may sell designs, but only for points
-All design sales must be run by me (PM is fine) before being posted on deviantart. Best way to do this is via screenshot~
-I'd prefer you ask before doing glowing markings/eyes, as this is supposed to be a rarer trait~
-Glowing feathers are a no-no
-Small body edits are fine
-Mane edits are not allowed by anyone except myself until it is confirmed that you know how the mane works. I've seen it drawn falling forwards many times, sort of like a kiamara's mane. It should not ever fall forward. There are plenty of ways to do the mane without it going forwards~
-Adding accessories is fine
-Try to make more free ones than sale ones!~
-New rule: Please ask me before doing any kind of glow! Glowing Kears are supposed to be very rare, and lately they've become quite common
-New rule: Feathers cannot glow! This rule is set in place after #29

Note: If you would like to do mane edits, add a layer on to a new Keardor (do not delete the old mane if you designed the Kear already, just in case!), make a new mane, and send me a screenshot to check it c: I'm not too picky with it. As long as the front part of the mane doesn't shift forwards like a kia mane, it will probably be fine!~ After I see your work I will qualify you to do mane edits

Any others will be added as needed

The adult lines are now finished! <3

Version 2? How come?

[GIGABITE]

The old lines were sketchy and not well done, but I didn't want to throw a new line set in on the old thread for multiple reasons, one being that I didn't want to do it all in one go but I also didn't want WIP lines mixed in with the already numerous layers xD
I would have spent longer on the first lines, but I wasn't sure if these would be successful and I didn't want to spend 2 hours on lines that I would soon abandon~
That's why :3

is it possible if we can revamp our Kear's onto the new lines? c:

The new Kear lines aren't really that much different from the old ones xD but I will be opening up a spot for that at some point soon
