The Caprus

Postby qwertyo » Wed Dec 17, 2014 10:44 pm

a species concept for the pallio world

tried going for a rabbit/goat hybrid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit 1/11/14

This thing is now called a Caprus.

Facts

Diet: Mainly green grass. May eat plants and fruits.
Lifespan: About 15-20 years in captivity. 10 years in the wild.
Size: About the size of a goat. An adult may weigh up to 250 lbs (113.398 kg)
Habitat: Grasslands, plains, and meadows. Mostly areas where there's green grass majority of the time.

The caprus is a herd animal. They are usually found in large groups, grazing at grass. For hundreds of years, the caprus has been a domesticated animal. It is raised as a source of food and for it's soft pelt. Capruses are very agile and quick, able to outrun most predators. Should they need to defend themselves, they use their strong hind legs to kick attackers.



This species has a specific set of markings. To start with, the base coat looks like this. Each caprus will have this base coat. The only accepted colors are whites/creams, muted blues, and greys. No bright blues or any other colors. As you can see in the example, there's a light colored version and a dark one.

Markings: Additional markings may be added to the base coat. The guide is too big to post, so here's a link to it. The markings may be combined in different ways, such as spots and gloves, neck and cheek spots, etc. Find a combo you like!

Ear Markings: I forgot to include the ear marks on the above guide whoops. You can see ear marking example in my oekaki above. It can be solid colored, spotted, or striped.

Marking colors
: Each marking may be a different color, as you can see in my oekaki. So you can have a cream caprus w/ dark blue spots, a dark grey neck, and blue ears. Just mess around with colors. Also, remember that the only acceptable colors are whites/creams, muted blues, and greys!

Eyes: Eyes are based on a rabbit's eye. For the color, they only come in light blues.

Yep, that's me! It's nice seeing other peeps from WS (also wow I haven't been active there aaa)

Hmm, I wanna change my name here to Urs so it matches the names I use on other sites (CS is the only place where I go by qwertyo), but I've been qwertyo here for so long (5 years) that I find it hard to change. Maaaaybe one day I'll do it.

Thanks!

and WS would be Wolfsoul! It's an upcoming wolf sim where you get to play as a fledgling wolf god protecting a pack. Unfortunately it's currently in closed beta, and the forums are no longer accepting new members. Here's a link to the tumblr though! You can see some screenshots there, and I suggest following if you're interested in joining when it's public.
