ＷＨＡＴ ＩＳ Ａ ＬＡＭＰＹＲＩＥ?
ＬＡＭＰＹＲＩＥＳ are firefly-like creatures that are closely related to cats. Their tails, eyes and antennae let out an eerie light that helps them see when hunting and navigating in the dark. They are generally found in large groups, and re incredibly fast and hard to spot.

ＴＨＥ Lampyrie come in many shapes, colours, patterns and sizes, and new ones are being found nearly all the time. Humans know very little about these creatures on their own planet... but will that change? Can these species coincide?

ＥＡＣＨ Lampyrie controls an element, and that individuals element decides the color of their glow and their abilities. A list can be found below on each element

Nature ~ Green Glow
Water ~ Blue Glow
Fire ~ Red Glow
Air ~ Yellow Glow
Crystal ~ White

ＲＵＬＥＳ

③ ＰＬＥＡ ＳＥ do not beg or whine if you do not get something.
④ ＰＬＥＡ ＳＥ do not ask to be an artist or staff. I will hold contests for them. Or I will appoint those whom I know will work.

ＡＦＦＩＬＩＡＴＥＳ

ＩＮＦＯ ＡＢＯＵＴ ＴＨＥＭ

ＬＯＯＫＳ
ＬＡＭＰＹＲＩＥＳ are feline like creatures with long legs and a lean body. They have a medium length segmented tail that is translucent on the bottom to allow the glowing light to shine through. They have feather like ears that fold to their head when running. They have two antennae on their heads that also glow. Their eyes can be any color and give off a faint glow to allow them to see in the dark. Their pelts are natural colors it is very rare to find an unnatural colored Lampy and normally something else is wrong with them as well. Their tails and antennae glow a specific color depending on their chore.

ＣＨＯＲＥＳ
Ａ ＣＨＯＲＥ is something that a Lampyrie is born into, depending on the color of their glow at the age of 3 months. That is the first time they will eat a crystal and from then on they must eat it at least once a week. A chore is an element based activity in which each Lampy works.

ＥＶＥＲＹ Lampy can control a certain element that helps their planet.
Nature = green glow = healing, growing, making plants
Water = blue = keeps the waters clean and filled with oxygen.
Helps water life grow.
Fire = red = creates small fires, most of them create accessories or
keep the small fires around their camps lit to keep away predators.
Air = yellow = clean the air after a fight with the desmo's. they control temperature and what not as well for the seasons?

Crystal = white = helps tend to the glow crystals that form in a large cave so they don't run out.

ＣＲＹＳＴＡＬＳ
ＴＨＥ crystals have been on the planet as long as the Lampyries can remember. But they only grow in a specific cave this cave is sacred to the Lampyries and only the leader of the groups and the crystal chore Lampyries are allowed in. If anyone or anything is found inside without the proper authority then there are serious consequences. If they are just found inside it isn't too bad, but for those who are found stealing crystals they can be exiled left to travel the planet alone. The crystals are so sacred to the Lampyries because of the fact that if they do not eat at least a tail length of crystal every week they can die. After three weeks of not eating a crystal a Lampyrie can die, there are very few who can last after that time period.

ＴＨＥ Lampyries who fall into the crystal chore tend to the crystals by going in and beating the two long feelers on their tails together, something about the vibrations from the tails allow the crystals to thrive to the point of sustaining the Lampyries. The Lampyries don't know why they eat them all they know is that without them they die. They provide the glow which helps release a specific type of gas inside their bodies that in other ways is unable to be released.

ＴＨＥ Lampyries are feline like in body and shape but they have small sharp teeth that are used only to crush the crystals. They are so small and fine that they can not kill prey that is larger than a small rabbit. They can puncture the skin but not enough

ＰＲＥＤＡＴＯＲＳ
ＳＰＥＣＩＦＩＣ predators will come with time. But, they can defend themselves using their claws, teeth and their element if need but they prefer to hide. They are able to dim their lights in order to go undiscovered. They are very fast due to their long legs and lean bodies. Their ears fold flat against their heads to help. Since their light is always on the animals around have gotten used to it and will not fall for their attraction. So they hunt like every other predator, find, stalk, pounce, kill. Like a feline.

ＦＯＯＤ
ＴＨＥＩＲ food source is bugs and other small prey animals only things that they can swallow whole. They also eat a certain type of crystal that makes them glow. Their eyes glow because of the stones as well and it allows them to see in the dark since they are nocturnal.

ＣＯＭＭＵＮＩＣＡＴＩＯＮ
ＬＡＭＰＹＲＩＥＳ do have a language. To humans it sounds like in depth chirping. Sort of like crickets in a field. They also use body language.

ＩＴＥＭＳ
ＴＨＥＹ are very intelligent, about human level. They use tools and other things. They can make things. Like accessories. Though everything is natural. Like Satine (the first Lampy) made a hair tie out of a vine. Same with a necklace and bracelet then attached a small piece of the crystal that they eat for a charm. She has a little leaf pouch that holds an acorn top so she can make music.

ＭＵＴＡＴＩＯＮＳ
ＶＥＲＹ ＲＡＲＥ - Wings, No tail, Broken glow
ＲＡＲＥ - Lots of hair, two element colors, unnatural colors, glow on other parts of their body.
ＵＮＣＯＭＭＯＮ - Hair tufts, different tail, multi color eyes, long feelers
ＣＯＭＭＯＮ - longer fur, accessories
more to come

ＢＲＥＥＤＩＮＧ
ＷＨＥＮ it is mating season males will gorge themselves with the stones, making their glow even brighter. They will then all gather together in a sort of get together on a full moon. The females will gather in a large circle around everyone and the males begin to dance. A humming is formed from the females, their two back feathers beating together to create it. The males and females will do that for about an hour slowly dwindling when two meet. They get this feeling that they should be together and when they touch their tails together both will glow as bright as the male was. That is how they become mates. Mates are life long.

But there is more. In Lampyrie society it is quite common the find gay or lesbian Lampys. When this happens the couples normally find each other the exact way as the others it just happens in their own section. These mates are also for life.
