💀Cryptlights Interest Check - Semi-Open Species

Howdy y'all!! I've been sitting on these guys as a concept for a fair bit now, and they've gone through a decent amount of metamorphosis over the months I've been working on them, and I think they're about ready for a little interest check. If they publicly launch, we're thinking they'll be semi-open, meaning commons can be made for free by anyone interested. Higher tier traits will be able to be bought with a species currency, which can be earned through events, raffles, minigames, and other assorted challenges! They will have their own lore and world, but will be 100% open ended and may be removed from canon if you do so please. I hope that with them I can make a sort of non-exclusive species that people of all sorts can enjoy

Here's some basic anatomy, as well as the current trait list under the spoiler (Special future event-only traits not included)

All traits are totally open to interpretation and do not have to be 100% exact to what's on the sheet! One example is you may have the voidmeld and flame accents trait, and you make your cryptlight's head just a big ole ball of fire! Or you could use tier 3 double up and make a primal cryptlight with 12 legs! Or maybe even get real funky with it and combine arctic and skull face and have...well, basically a furry cryptlight - or tropical with skull face, make the skull a bird, now you've got a sort of bird furry cryptlight...just remember your horns! Even vampire, orc, and oni are flexible (these teeth could extend and retract at will if you'd like! Think like how cat claws work, sort of)! And much, much more, the only limit being your imagination (and the required traits)

Here's the current primary species mascot (click the gif)!

And under this spoiler are some of the other alpha test cryptlights so far (all images are linked to their profiles)!

As of right now, alpha tester positions are closed, as there are way too many little finer details that I want to ensure are taken care of before this extends to people outside of my immediate circle. Check back in a while for when beta opens! I can do pings for anyone interested in entering beta, and I can also do pings for those interested in joining only during the final launch - just ask!! If anyone has any questions I'm always open to answer them <3 These little guys are a silly passion project of mine, so any engagement, commentary, or general feedback is greatly appreciated!
