Meet the Psi Clan
The Psi Clan is the jolly clan. They are a happy group of Floss, glad to have survived the ordeal that they did. They live in the ancient ruins of the Sugarfloss on Pagoto, one of the few places cold enough for them to inhabit due to their immunity to cold and inability to stand any heat. Due to the bitter cold climate they live in, it’s very difficult for anyone not a Peppermintfloss to live in their homeland. Other flavored Psi tend to find homes within the other territories. The Psi offer as much hospitality as they can and enjoy having visitors. They have founded a new industry and are the world’s leading ice cream excavators as the mountains surrounding them are full of the stuff. They package up and export the frozen delicacy to the delight of the other clans. The Peppermints live as happily as they can making the most of their lives. Joy and happiness are felt all over the clan and everyone makes an effort to keep the warm feelings alive. If other Floss visit and spend a little too much time in the clan, they tend to start feeling like something is off, like something bad is going to happen, and yet nothing bad ever does. It’s also highly recommended that once a floss in one of the cities or towns, that they stay there until it becomes safe to travel again. It’s not uncommon to find frozen bodies in the snow or hear screams in the mountains when Floss go off exploring the uncharted parts of Pagoto. It is still worth it to visit the clan though since a beautiful Aurora Borealis can be seen most nights and there are tons of Mikro Oplo since this is actually their native land.
culture
The Psi really try to embody happiness and joy in all that they do and it’s very rare to see a sour face. They latch onto everything that brings light and warmth into their lives and turn it up to ten with music playing all the time, decorations everywhere, hospitality, and constant gift giving. If an outsider Floss tries to sour the mood, the Psifloss are not afraid to tell them how unwelcome they are now and exactly where the door is so they can take their unhappiness elsewhere. They much prefer visitors who join in the fun wholeheartedly and show those guests an amazing time.
In general the Psiclan prefer to avoid conflict, especially the physical sort, but some Peppermints of Psi that were badly infected by the virus tend to be unpredictable and can lash out violently. The vast majority of Psi and the children born as Psi don’t have the same temper problem as this minority of infected and usually avoid fighting altogether especially since many see how these fights end and do not want to be a part of that kind of violence. Psifloss do use spears and such to hunt, but that’s about it.
There isn't a mass transportation system in Psi. The extreme ice and snow make everything too treacherous and trails disappear constantly. They aren’t even able to have roads between the settlements, they get destroyed too quickly by the weather. Linook dog sleds are an option, but they are not super reliable, so many Floss choose to just travel in a walking group during the best weather, hoping for the best, when they need to get to another city or town.
The Psi clan mostly eat fish they catch themselves and ice cream from their mountains. During these excavations, peppermint stalicites were found and Peppermintfloss go crazy for it as it is their favorite food. For more variety, they import other necessary foods from other clans when needed. They also have huge cocoa hot springs that they like to play in and drink from. When times are lean or a shipment can’t get through, Psifloss have been known to eat Mikro Oplo and Neroros if they can catch them.
The Psifloss wear frilly, colorful, and fluffy dirndl and lederhosen usually with wooden clogs or boots. They don’t get cold so they can wear what they want and don’t need much coverage. They love the bright colors and have dyes and fabrics imported so they can make whatever designs they feel like. They actually import things a lot since they don’t have many resources that they can use to make things on their own.
attributes
Here are some common attributes shared by the members of the Psi Clan. Does your floss fit the mold? Or are they an odd man out? Either way these are some stereotypes they may be compared to by other Candyfloss throughout their lives.
- Unpredictable ; Many members of the Psi clan have mental instabilities caused by the Peppermintvirus' after effects. This leads some who come in contact with Psifloss to assume they may be handicapped, and treat them differently, whether it's with fear or unneeded special care.
- Jolly ; Most people assume the Psiclan to be a holly jolly clan filled with laughter and good will towards Floss. This expectation can cause some high standards in Psifloss who want to come across as cheerful, and some ridicule for those who dont.
- Hospitable ; Psifloss come across as giving people, who love to give gifts and food and welcome others into their homes. Though living in the Psiclan can lead most floss to act this way, this leads to other Psifloss being taken advantage of, or being expected to give more than theyre comfortable with.
- Indulgent ; Psifloss are a people of celebration and indulgance, they love to party and eat whenever they have the oportunity. This causes some floss to expect no better from the Psi clan, and the hardships they bare between feasts tend to go unacknowledged.
- Violent ; In the wake of the Virus, Peppermint Psifloss have to stand up against feelings of unease, and fear from the floss who experienced it. Before they were cured, many Psifloss had violent tendancies brought on by their ailment, and some retained these qualities afterwards, though it was a small percentage. News of incidents involving these floss make a stain on the reputation of all other Psi.
History
The Peppermint Virus started as a result of a failed lab experiment by the Zeta leader Zachari. He was the first infected Peppermint victim and the virus spread quickly through the air. A state of emergency was enacted as the virus quickly crossed the seas and the entire world was being affected. Whenever a Floss caught the virus they would feel very cold and start to shiver, then they would become numb and tingly before a bitter pain set in. Their fur would turn pure white and eyes would begin to grow on their body. Some even lost their sanity from the pain and changes they were undergoing. Eventually they would die once the pain was too great and they couldn’t stand it any longer.
Here is an account from the journal of Zeta leader Zachari, "What have I done...? An overwhelming Cold. Cold in your bones, in your fingers and toes. A bitter, painful cold that seeps in to your heart and then... nothing... your whole body goes numb. You feel your color leaving your body. Draining like your body heat. It's a fast process, completely gone in almost an instant. Then the eyes start to come. You can feel them, boiling just below the surface. There's nothing you can do to stop it. It doesn't hurt - or rather, i believe it would have hurt if i could feel anything aside from cold and fear. After it’s done the numbness doesn't go away. Your whole body feels week and trembles. It's hard to do much of anything but writhe in agony. I heard of others dying before the process even completed... others a few days later. It's spreading fast... this could be the end of us.. of all Caramella. We must find a cure. We will find a cure. It didn't take long from the start of the outbreak for Alpha to invade the region. The military is flooding in, getting infected like the rest of us. The Nu have the entire continent in a bubble, not letting anyone out. But that didn't stop the virus from spreading to Karpos and Glykos. Gamma and Alpha soldiers are rounding up everyone with so much as a white coat and putting them in quarantine with the Mu. We thought they would be immune, but they aren't. Their healing does nothing but sooth the pain. The Beta have their region on lock down, refusing to let anyone in. I dont think that will help them, though. This is chaos."
Zachari, with the help of the Delta Clan leader, Annalise, worked endlessly through the pain and terror until a cure was found. This cure was quickly released and administered with the majority of the affected becoming stable, but not returning to their original states. Unfortunately, the cure did not completely work on everyone. These select few were changed irreparably, their Soul Gem warped and cracked into a pinwheel as the chill of the Peppermint became permanent and their ability changed. These new Peppermintfloss also developed an extreme sensitivity to hot while simultaneously becoming immune to the cold, forcing them to now live on the uncharted Pagoto continent when the Sugarfloss originally came from, it being the coldest place on Caramella and the only place they were comfortable. With Zeta’s help, the new Peppermints rebuilt the ruins and created cities and settlements where this new flavor thrives under their leader, Katya.
leader
As a child Katya was born an Alpha Trufflefloss. She was often ostracized for being odd and unapproachable. She was a violent child who would often fuss and act out without reason. She had a hard time making friends and many had no patience for her antics. Her family was very hot headed and she did not fit in with their Alpha ideals, like honor and strength. Her brother was the only who stuck up for her, but still was weirded out by some of her more unpredictable behaviors. On a trip to Zeta with her family, she got infected with the Peppermint virus. Her brother, not wanting to also get infected, ditched her even as she cried for his help. She was abandoned by the one person she relied on. She was rounded up with the other infected floss and spent the time waiting for a cure alone and scared. When the cure came, her family was reached out to while she was in recovery and did not even claim her as their own. That was the last time she saw her family, though the thick glass of the observation room when they turned away from her and left her behind for good. The alpha gem on her forehead split and cracked into many separate pieces, swirled together, forming the first Psi gem.She went berserk in the lab and was the first of the Psi to tap into their new abilities, the power to take over and control other floss against their will. She started hurting doctors and anyone who got too close. She became well known among the other infected floss, and they started to follow her lead, fighting against those who were holding them in confinement After the cure came, many of the infected had split gems just like her and they formed an alliance with one another under her lead. She was only one of many who had no home to return to.
She gathered a bunch of the infected Floss who followed her and they fought back to break free of Zetas confinement. They took hold of their destiny and fled to the North. They reached Pagoto and created the new clan of Psi under Katya's rule. Despite her rebellion, the Zetas wanted to remain peaceful with this budding clan and Zachari reached out to aid them in developing their new land. Relations between Psi and the other Pzekazi clans have remained strong, however Katya's disdain for Alpha will never die down. She detests the Alphas, and reluctantly agreed to join the Clan Council only because Zachari urged her to.
Now, years later, the Psi are a great nation, ruling over the harsh landscape of southern pogoto and she had risen as a powerful leader. Still young, in her teenage years Katya is known to be unpredictable, fierce, and ruthless. She is loyal to her clan and her people and a force to be reckoned with. She and Zachari become very close friends and he became like a surrogate brother to her. They are inseparable when they are together and their nations remain very tightly knit. Though on the surface, the Zetas' rigid nature and reliance on data and science is in great contract to the Psi's joyous and devil-may-care philosophies, the two nations learn a lot from one another and have made each other stronger in their alliance.
“Peace of mind is more important than trying to understand why something happened the way it did.”
psi territory
The Psi contenent is arctic in nature, and could be described as barren. The coasts of the land are constantly broken and reformed, causing it's shape to be ever-changing. Large sheets of ice and snow often break free and float in the arctic waters surrounding the contenent. The roads and pathways between settlements in Psi are theoretical at best, and due to constant wings, blizzards, snow fall, and other harsh weather landmarks and pathways are constantly changing and being covered with snow.nature
Pagoto is a mountanous landscape with many large, forboading peaks and valleys that are home to only a few animals and seemingly no plant life at all. The temperature in Pagoto is never above freezing, and is most often below 0. The sky over Pagoto is largely a soft grey and white with a heavy amount of fog and cloud cover; but when night falls, the deep dark sky is filled with bright colorful lights called Aorora Borealis that strike the cold white snow with a prsim of color.
landmarks
Choco LademelkChoco Lademelk is a hot chocolate river that flows through the ice in eastern Psi and runs at the perfect temperature, so as not to be scalding so you can go tubing in giant marshmallow floats. A welcome warmth among all the snow, even if it’s a little sticky. A small homey cabin lodge stands tall at it's springs. This is a popular place to visit and enjoy some time away in the otherwise harsh environment of Pogoto.
Sneeuwsturm
This large frozen lake lays due south of the capital city of Psi. The ice wasteland is consistently barged by a neigh invisible blizzard, that rages it's surface. Travelers who are unaware, can easily find them selves tossed and torn by the angry winds of the Sneeuwsturm.
kingdoms
Ijsland
Like no other, the city of Ijsland is famous for its shiny buffered ice walkways and roads. Here, Floss from all over travel within the city using ice skates, sleds, and Cloud Altis pulled carriages. It's a fun way that the Psi navigate this interesting environment. The city itself is like being transported into a colorful folk-city filled with villas with lots of windows and brick thatched roofs. The roads are lined with old school metal, fire burning streetlights, giving off a comfy and warm atmosphere. In the center of the quant town is the large wood based capital building where the rulers of Psi do business and have many holiday parties.
Knus Port
This port-villiage is right along the coast of Pagoto's northern peninsula and used as a bustling trading port for the Psi clan. The bay is filled with broken-up ice sheets that float on the water and make traversing the bay difficult for all the ships that dock there. The city itself is built with heavily reinforced metal buildings with thick tempered glass for windows. These airtight buildings have dual-temperature sectioning for traders, merchants and ship crews who stop by Psi while docking and unloading goods. Mixed flavored Candyfloss households take advantage of these accommodations. This revolutionary city once again reuniting families after the Peppermint Virus separated them.
Altijd Gevaar
Ruins of a passed Sugarfloss settlement, Altijg Gevaar is unique in that it is completely composed of gingerbread. Rebuilt by the Psi settlers, this village boasts beautiful cookie and icing structures that were formed using naturally harvested gingerbread stones from mines deep in the nearby mountains. The Altijd Gevaar is built in a gigantic semicircle around a bustling town center. This is where the biggest and most beautiful Chioni fest Tree stands. This tree is taller than most of the buildings in Psi clan and is cared for meticulously. It is the pride of all of Altjd.
Regenboog
Regenboog is a popular tourism spot to visit, Regenboog is a pleasant village atop a fluffy snow-covered plateau that has different flavored underground juice springs that sprout from the ice in different flavors and colors. These springs burst above ground from geysers that paint the snow in sprays of vibrant hues that are both beautiful to see and tasty to eat. This natural forming landmark is often joked about as being the planet’s personal snow cone machine. Regenboog is as colorful as the geysers, with bright rainbow paints on the buildings and streets. This splash of color stands out against the white landscape surrounding it.
Kleurnacht Mountain
Following the rock laid path up to the peak of the Kleurnacht mountain, floss are rewarded with the most spectacular view of the aurora borealis lights famous on this frozen continent. This landmark is called The Aurora Peaks. Due to the view this is a popular romantic destination. At the base of the mountain lays the village of Klernacht, a chilly town comprised entirely of igloos that stay warm and toasty on the inside, but are covered toe to tip with ice and snow.
Though Pagoto doesnt naturally have trees, the Psi enjoy bringing in and cultivating pine trees from Zeta and Delta. If one of these trees is able to survive to full size it is celebrated and decorated.

A long standing myth that has been passed down by the generations, Santafloss is one of the key elements of the Chioni Holiday. A jolly round Sugarfloss high in Pagoto, far out of reach of even the Psi toils away day after day with his village of short fuzzy sugarfloss to create gifts for each and every good little kittenfloss. It's said that Santafloss' sugarfloss helpers were the origins of the Sugarfloss species, though this isn't backed by science. One day a year, on the night before Chioni Santafloss is said to mount a sleigh pulled by a heard of the most beautiful of Cloud Altis, and deliver presents to every Floss in Caramella on the day of the Chioni fest. It's true that presents seem to appear overnight, and sometimes even strange little snow creatures can be found beneath the tree. But the origin of these gifts has never been proven! Surely its absurd... but it keeps the kittenfloss acting nice all year round so who's to say.The Psi Celebrate their holiday in December
The Psifloss love to celebrate and endulge in goodies year round.
The Psi leader, Katya, was once an Alpha Trufflefloss, before the Virus.
Clan power
possession
The Psi Clan’s power is the ability to possess another Candyfloss’ body. While they have control of another floss the Psi’s body becomes limp and requires protection from enemies. While possessing someone the Psi is able to use that floss' ability. Young and inexperienced Psi’s can only possess someone close to them and for a short period of time. However, with a lot of dedication and training, some have been known to possess from great distances for long periods of time or even possess more than one person.
Balancing warm interiors with the ice capped biome can be difficult, a constant struggle against the elements is an important part of life in Psi.
psi exclusive trait
globe Material Type
Candy limb is a Legendary Trait.
Candy limb material is corporeal.
The globe material type is made of a thin piece of 100% transparent glass! The glass forms a globe that is usually round but can also be shaped! The inside of the glass is filled with falling snow by default but can be mixed with other material types to house a number of things like plants, liquid or candies! The globes glass is always transparent but can be tinted with solid colors or simple gradients!
The natural state of the globe trait is the Snow-globe variation, this consists of an always falling gentle snowfall.
The globes cannot be opened or filled with items, but they can be broken or even shattered to some degree. It hurts a ton when it breaks like a bone, and wont heal unless all the pieces are held in place immediately! Repaired globes and globes and globes that have been broken are extremely fragile so be careful! When Globes are repaired a visible sealant can be seen between the cracks.
Many believe the mythical Santafloss lives in the uncharted portions of Pagoto!Clan petpets

dorokin
Dorokin are little cold friends, their bodies are comprised of a thin ice base, and they like to roll in snow and ice to keep their icy bodies cold. With no arms to help them, Dorokin can often be found rolling about in any ice and snow nearby. Wild Dorokin have never been seen, so its unknown how they act in the wild. It's not uncommon to find a Dorokin hiding beneath your Chioni tree along with your presents on Chioni morning. Thats how they got their name, as "dóro" means gift! They are very friendly and quiet but needy. If a Dorokin isnt getting enough attention they will waunder off into the snow, so be sure to give it lots of love. If a Dorokin wants to pack more ice onto their bodies but cant find any snow nearby they will go after ice cream and slushies instead. Their round beaks dont seem to open and they dont seem to eat. In fact, if you tug you can pull it right off! Read more about this pet on their pet page below.
Doroking
The Doroking is a relatively new discovery. A team of hunters in Psi came across the first of these giant snow beasts deep in the North of Pagoto. It was aggressive and injured the floss, when they returned with back up, they discovered a huge heard of these 12 foot tall beasts, living in caves on a mountain top. It took time, but eventually the floss were able to make peace with these territorial beasts, when one of them recognized the hat of their childhood Dorokin resting on it's head. It's unknown if the Dorokin truly evolve into this beast, but that is the theory, as many floss have identified their long lost Dorokin among the herds they've found. Not much is known about these lumbering beasts, but they seem similar to the Dorokin, in how they shape their bodies with snow, ice, and slush. They create a high pitched sound like a glass struck with a fork, but are otherwise silent and docile once introduced. Though they can be a bit protective of their pack.Read more about this pet on their pet page below.

The next Psi Clan Petpet has not yet been revealed!Look forward to their debut in December 2024 !
xoyetiko
The Xoteiko are adorable fuzzy creatures who live deep in the icecream mountains of northern Pagoto! They are only about 10 inches tall and come in many different forms! These little gremlins are a recent discovery of the Psifloss who inhabit the firgid north and have recently been spreading south to Pzekazi as house hold pets. Like monkeys the Xoyetiko walk on two legs but are known to run and climb with thier center and front arms. Their small limbs stick close to their fur for warmth and they're even known to curl into fluff balls when they are shy, hiding from danger, or sleeping.

Bahyetiko
The Bahyetiko stand about waist high on the average peppermintfloss. They are rare creatures to find and in the wild they tend to live in deep caves at the top of Pagoto's snowy ice caps. They are rabid creatures who are crooked and grumpy by nature. Unlike most petpets the Xoyetiko will only evolve into the Bahyetiko if they are overcome with great greif and annoyance. They are grouchy, easily angered and general trouble makers. Many tell stories of Bahyetiko sneaking into Psi towns that are too close to their mountains to cause trouble for floss. From destruction of properly, to mild attacks, and a sudden increase in prank mail. The Bahyetiko hate all things bright and cheery.Read more about this pet on their pet page below.
