Keikokitsunes...
What are they?
Keikos are humanoid creatures with fox-like ears as well as a tail, though not all of the fur patterns resemble a fox. A Keiko usually has markings inside of their ear, and occasionally markings accross their body that they've had since birth (Yes, that can also include on their tongue or in their eyeball). A Keiko's blood color is also the same as their blush/tongue color. The symbols in their ears are very similar to tattoos and are patterns in their fur. They are NOT objects that pop out!
Common ⚠️: Keikos come in all shapes and sizes, and a common Keiko's life-span is equal to that of a human's.
Uncommon ☠️: The uncommon Keiko... Keikos often born to fulfill one purpose, and once that purpose is fulfilled, they wither away or die a painfully tragic death. Even if at a young age, they don't quite know what that purpose is. These Keikos are nothing but bad luck, or thats what the rumors say. Keikos born with ☠️ symbols in their ears are what humans would call cursed, destined for an early death. Very few ☠️ Keikos live long past other's expectations. Long-living ☠️ Keikos are what we call, " Running from Death". Some even turn into reapers themselves, and become Death.
Rare ☢️☣️: Rare Keikos aren't supposed to exist, as they are a product of forced-breeding and birth defects. These Keikos are very dangerous and unpredictable. Most are hostile towards other Keikos, and some even become cannibals once acquiring a taste for blood. Though it is possible for common and uncommon Keikos to also become violent, ☣️ Keikos are more prone to it. These Keikos can also have odd-colored scleras. Some rare Keikos have fennec-fox length ears, and these Keikos have been known to live double the lifespan of common Keikos. Multi-coloured blood is a very rare trait, but a surprisingly large amount of ☣️ Keikos have this. All Keikos only have one tail, EXCEPT for rare Keikos. A lot of these Keikos typically only have one tail, but a handfull of other Keikos have multiple.
Legendary: Legendary Keikos were once uncommon Keikos, but as they spent their entire life-span running from their early demise, the grimreaper eventually caught up to these foxes. These Keikos are quite different from the rest, and despite how rare they may be, legend has it that if you'd happen to catch a glimpse of a Legendary Keiko, Death isn't too far behind you, and you will too soon meet your end. Sometimes, even the legendary Keikos tail becomes skeletal. Their hair color might even darken, depending on the Keiko's age of death. People say that legendary Keikos with pitch-black hair must have lived to be 500. But then again, that could have been the Keikos hair color before passing away. Some might even have a black/or odd colored sclera.
How do Keikos breed?: Keikos can breed with other Keikos of two different rarity types, and the lovechild Keiko will either turn out being a common or uncommon. The chances of a common and an uncommon breeding and then having a rare Keiko isn't very likely unless there was a traumatic event that had lead up to it. Even if two rares were to breed, they most likely wouldn't have a rare lovechild. Keikos are also able to breed with humans. If a common Keiko and a human were to breed, then the lovechild would ONLY be the same type of Keiko as the one that human mated with.
What's a "Keiurrix"?: A hybrid. Keikos and Burrix can mate. More information will be added soon.
Do they have certain colors/based around one color?: No, they can be any color.
Do they have traditional clothing?: No. Because so many Keikos function differently, their outfits often reflect their personality. Though, that isn't always the case. They wear whatever they want. You can give YOUR Keiko traditional outfits, however.
What are some things that commons aren't allow/are allow to have?: Common Keikos are allowed to have anything that aren't traits similar to uncommon, rare, and legendary. And for the uncommon, rare, and legendary, they are allowed to have every trait a common has.
Are there any rules on tail length or hair style?: All Keiko's tail lengths can be anywhere from 4 ft to 6 ft, and their hair can be put in any style.
Are commons not allowed to have heterochromia? (Multicolour eyes) and any rules about the symbols in the eyes?: Commons (and any other Keiko) are allowed to have heterochromatic eyes. But only rares and legendaries are allowed different colored scleras. Keikos can have any symbol in their eye. Some don't have any symbols, though.
Do all of the marks have to be the ones shown (exclamation, toxic symbol), or can some of them be a different thing?: The tattoos/markings don't have to reflect the symbols in their ears.
