 About the Elxin

Elxin are a shapeshifting trans-dimensional species who have been around for many millennia, seeking out other worlds and species to dominate and assimilate. Some consider them deities, others pests (and many more do not even know of their existence).

Most of their power is easily foiled by their own incapacity to bend space and time for long, often losing their own identities-- most notably through memory loss.
It is common for Elxin to unite with one another- to shift into a singular identity even more powerful than before- only to soon be fragmented into a new identity and body, unable to control their own strength.

There is much that is not known about these odd creatures other than their (extremely varied) appearance and their capabilities of traversing universes, lands, and time itself!

 General Physiology + Anatomy

A general comparison to how most Elxin appear is that they often seem to be a hybrid of humanoids, bovidae and mustelidae-- if the latter families were bipedal.
Many Elxin originally have a feral form that appears more dragon-like, spanning kilometers in length.
Because of this feral and predatory origin form, Elxin are usually long and narrow in the body (from neck to feet) while retaining a lot of body fur, as well as the conventional multiple teats mammals have to nurse their young. Oftentimes horns are sprouted from Elxin who travel planetside, while wings sprout on spaceside Elxin, all for various assimilation tactics among other species.

The most notable point in the Elxin physiology is their pupils. As we humans consider eyes a window into the soul, an Elxin's status is easily seen through their pupils colors: an Elxin with heterochromic pupils is considered divided- an individual. While there is nothing wrong being one spirit in a body, among Elxin this is considered a less powerful form (and to most, this is considered less viable to live with).
When two Elxin join together, they shift into a new form that shows homochromic pupils. They may unlock new powers by joining, but they also run a high chance of being unable to withstand their upgraded powers if they are not truly compatible with each other's spirits. It's also important to note that any one Elxin can join with another, as it has more of a familial connotation than romantic.

When Elxin shift into more humanoid forms to fit among other beings, they will often vary from 6 feet to 13 feet in height. Average humanoid-form size thoroughly depends on the knowledge an Elxin has of their environs. Some are stubborn and rarely change form, despite height inconveniences.

Overall, Elxin are very fluid with their own appearances. Many are able to shift without much trouble, though keeping a different shape than their natural form over many moons can be difficult in comparison to a few hours.
Depending on the Elxin, there are specific parts of their anatomy that are so easy to will away that it could be considered habitual (i.e. removing long horns to avoid snags on strange environs) during conquests.

Elxin have great capacity for mental powers beyond shifting shape. Most, if not all Elxin, can utilize telekinesis, even if divided (one spirit) or fractured from separation.

below i will post all Elxin made so far, and hopefully this thread can be a lowkey species listing, that way anyone can look back on it and see their design-- or the official and guest designs.

if you are interested in creating an elxin, anyone is welcome to message or comment, but they are a closed species so PLEASE DO NOT MAKE AN ELXIN WITHOUT PERMISSION!
I will happily consider common MYO slot offers for art right now!

Minp

Hallo is there a th world or anywhere i can see all the traits/myo info

I also may just be missing info on the thread im sleepy fnkskfme

Hag

Minp heya hey! No worries :3
There's no world, everything is listed in the thread! If there's any questions I'm more than happy to explain here or in PMs.
But the gist is that there are no other traits for MYO other than the common factors shown in the first image! i.e. pupils and hooves ^^/

SeightNeiv

hi, hi!, I would like to offer art for a common myo! here are some examples of my art https://seightneiv.carrd.co/#chibi Other type of chibis here https://seightneiv.carrd.co/#pixel 

Please lmk if any of the examples catched your attention!, tysm <3

Hag

SeightNeiv i would looove to take your offer, all your samples are AMAZING! a sketchy chibi fullbody would be more than fine if you'd be okay with that! if drawing this common elxin is ok with you (simplifying is OK) then let's do it and i'll send a common MYO character page to you when the drawing's done!

SeightNeiv

Hag omg sorry for the late relpy aaaH

I love the desing!, Would you like any specific pose?, also, when the chibi it's finished, should I sent It via dm or just tranfer to the character? ^^

Hag

SeightNeiv absolutely no worries or rush my friend XD no specific pose (and feel free to get rid of her silver armor if it's a bother)! 

feel free to PM or transfer, i'm fine with either!

PainterFight

Can I offer a common myo slot too? See my art tab for examples!

Hag

PainterFight omg yes i'd love to accept! would you be fine with a flat colored fullbody of this elxin, in his outfit?

kiomix

Love the idea for this species to bad  I can't draw😔 I could color a squirggle base with colors of a character you have.

(Just got a art tablet and I'm still learning to draw)

Hag

kiomix i appreciate the interest! i don't have any use for base art atm unfortunately... i think the best i could swing is selling you a slot for $10.00 and letting you use a chibi base i made a long while ago to draw your elxin on from there...? but i understand if that's not worth it. X'D

kiomix

Hag

Don't have no money to buy a myo so I guess nvm for now sadly.

Hag

kiomix apologies! ;v; but your interest is noted and very much appreciated!

hi! im in LOVE with these guys, but id like to ask a few questions first and foremost!

firstly, what are the general rules for crossbreeds regarding elxins and other species? i have a couple characters that im interested in turning into crossbreeds, but is this something that's not allowed/what are the restrictions on this, and is this limited to a specific rarity?

secondly, how would we go about getting higher rarity traits, or are those off limits for now until later? :0

Hag

ecconomics hello helloooo ^v^/ I honestly appreciate your queries because this made me think about the situation.
let me try and answer accordingly and maybe if you have more questions (or opinions!) afterward, you can let me know what you think XD

for the first question... i honestly WANTED the elxin to be compatible with other species/crossbreeds. that being said, it gets muddled the more you introduce other CS that i would have to be aware of regarding permission. it'd probably end up having to be a screenshot situation where i can see the CS mod/admin give permission, that sort of thing. i'm not opposed to it, of course!
if it's a personal species (i.e. no permission needed from the other species mods bc you own it), i would allow crossbreeds as it stands! XD

regarding non CS crossbreeds, YES that is totally fine! no need to ask permission (i.e.- a naga OC with an Elxin form = ok!)
just make sure they are common traits in Elxin form rather than legendary or mutations at the moment. there might be a chance in the future to 'upgrade' accordingly based on the second answer ↓

second question is an easy answer atm. the mutations and legendary traits are off limits for MYOs until i see more MYO elxin haha, apologies. the biggest reason is that i am trying to decide if i want to add more traits! i don't want to allow complete freedom until i'm 99% sure the traits will be locked in.

but theoretically if you have a common elxin and wanted to upgrade them for whatever reason it'll probably just be add ons of the same type that you gained the MYO for (so if you paid for the slot, pay for upgrade... if you drew for the slot, draw for the upgrade). (‾◡◝)
