Hello everyone! A while back I started a new species called Sylphies, and felt pretty good about them. Well, I feel that they need a revamp, including new lines. So, I've reached out to the CS community to see if they wll lend me a helping hand. Here's more information about Sylphies;
What exactly is a Sylphie?
Sylphies are furry, dragon-like creatures. They have elongated bodies and a broad chest that allows them to run at speeds of up to 60 mph. They have short front legs, and long hind legs, which causes their rump to rise above their shoulders. Many have horns that come in all shapes and sizes, and some don't have any horns at all.
When a Sylphie reaches adulthood (two years) they earn their charm. Their charm signifies the passing of their old life, and the beginning of a time of wisdom and experience.
More About Sylphies
Size wrote:Adult male Sylphies are generally 4-5 feet tall at the shoulder, and females are 3 1/2 to 4 feet tall
Males are usually 500 pounds, and females normally reach anywhere from 425 to 450 pounds.
Breedings and Young wrote:Sylphies can produce young at the age of two. They mate for life, but like humans can experience "relationship problems", and change mates. Sylphies can be straight, bisexual, pansexual, or anything in between. Only male and female couples can produce young, not same-sex couples (for obvious reasons).
Sylphies are born from live-birth, meaning they don't hatch from eggs. Baby Sylphies, known as pups, stay with their parents until the age of two, when they become adults. Pups do not grow their horns until they've reached their adult stage, and and have traits from both parents. This means that if the father has Horn A and the mother has Horn B, the child can not have Horn C. The pups can inherit traits from grand parents, but not great-grand parents, etc.
Charms wrote:Charms are quite possibly the most important part of Sylphie culture. Charms are given to young Sylphies at two years old, once they have become adults. Charms signify the crossing from their younger, more childish life, to a new life of wisdom and responsibility. Charms can come in any shape or color, ranging in sizes from a dime to an orange. Charms can be feathers, flowers, stones or hand-made objects, such as animals and food. Gemstones are also a possibility. No two Sylphies have the same charm, meaning each is unique to that specific Sylphie. Once a Sylphie receives its charm, it can not be changed. Charms usually represents its Sylphie in one way or another, whether it be appearance, its past, or personality.
