Basic Gaidinian Guide


===Gaidinia===

Gaidinia is a planet - a realm created by The Main One, a deity. It's home to multiple original species, of which these are currently known and obtainable - Nyanarrs, Kyomes, Thalemimis, and Kemuchiis. You can find humans and various mythological creatures living on the planet as well. Those include demons, angels, mermaids, and many others. Gaidinia has a very rich history and mythology. Whether it's good or bad, deities are responsible for running most of the country. 

===Original species of Gaidinia===

Nyanarrs

Nyanarrs are a humanoid species. They are born with the ability to control elements, but every Nyanarr is limited to one type of element only. The other major difference between them and humans are their animal ears. Attached to the ears are so-called fluff balls with a string that holds the second ball of fluff, which is their most important body part. It's the source of their life force and magic, cutting it off would result in death. Additionally, Nyanarrs always have animal tails and some can even have horns or antlers.

When it comes to elements, Dark and Light are considered to be the strongest. Nyanarrs with these powers were one of the oldest Gaidinian species and many still consider them to be an aristocracy. They try to keep their blood as pure as possible by avoiding reproduction with other elements. Their home is usually the capital, a city called Aditone.

Fire, Water, Earth, and Air are elements that came into existence later, but nowadays they make up the majority. Eventually, they even gave birth to new and more unusual elements. At first, it was only Wood (evolved from Earth) and Metal (from Fire), but now we also know Ice (from Water) and Electricity (from Air). The elements are constantly evolving and it's not a stretch to say that we might yet come across more elements in the future.

Kyomes

It's said that Kyomes are the closest to Gods. They don't sleep, Kyomes grant dreams to other species instead. They are born when a person dreams for the first time. It determines what type of Kyome they will be and what kind of dreams they'll mostly grant - a corrupted Kyome is born when the dream is a nightmare, non-corrupted when it isn't. The first dream is decided by the "Dream Council", which is also why they are considered the creators of all Kyomes.
The eyes on their face are always blind, that's why most Kyomes hide them. Despite that, they have an extraordinarily good sight, better than most species. They can see through their "real" eyes that are somewhere on their body. The placement doesn't matter. Kyomes have unique nervous system that can turn the image into a normal vision. This means Kyomes can always see what's happening in front of them, even if the eyes are located on their hands.

They are very proud of their tail. It's made of hair and is tied with a string that connects them to their dreamer, so its color reflects the dreamer's soul. Kyomes don't ever cut it, only if their dreamer dies. In that case not only do they lose their tail, but very often also their reason to live since they are no longer required by society and lose their meaning.
It's incredibly rare, but half-corrupted Kyomes live in Gaidinia as well, even though they are sort of a mistake and shouldn't even exist. They control the powers of both corrupted and non-corrupted Kyomes.

Thalemimis

Thalemimis are an amphibious species. They can thrive anywhere from land or freshwater to oceans and seas. What sets them apart is their ears and tail that are similar to tentacles. Gills can be found located on their necks, along with swimming membranes between their fingers. These features make them skilled swimmers and allow them to breathe underwater. They also have a so-called "second skin". It's a section of thicker skin that adorns their hands and legs. The skin is almost impenetrable and usually has various markings and colors. Sometimes Thalemimis are born with mutations that are caused by acid rains and pollution, but in some, it can also manifest later in their life.

Kemuchiis

Kemuchiis were initially spirits living in Gaidinia, but all changed when they sealed a deal with deities to become their earthly "dolls", submitting themselves to their heavenly command for all eternity. A deity can create an endless army of Kemuchiis if one desires to do so. The major difference would be their appearance since Kemuchiis take on traits based on their deity. A a mirror that holds their soul is located on the Kemuchii's body, and if one breaks their divine contrast or loses the mirror, they will become just lifeless dolls. Contrary to other species, Kemuchiis don't have common, uncommon or rare traits, but they are divided into Lower and Higher Kemuchiis. Higher Kemuchiis are rarer and stronger, just as their deities.
Lower Kemuchiis: art, blood, war, peace, prophecy, justice, madness, secrets.
Higher Kemuchiis: past, present, future, death, life, sun, moon, magic.

Pets
Your Gaidinians can own any regular animals, however, there are also numerous special Gaidinian pet species that live nowhere else but in Gaidinia. Some of them were domesticated, therefore, they can be found living in the wild as well as in your living room. But don't forget that they are not free to create! You must obtain an MYO slot right or purchase an existing Gaidinian pet adopt.

They can be divided into common, uncommon, rare, and unique pet species.

Common pets can be obtained quite easily as there is a lot of them in Gaidinia (think of cats, dogs, and other regular animals). You can tell which pets are common quite easily as they are distributed (sold, raffled) on bases. There are currently multiple common pets; Fuunis (Fuuni in singular), Tawaris (Tawari in singular), Berilis (Berili in singular), Noci (Noc in singular), Numies (Numie in singular), Medy (Med in singular), Dyms (Dym in singular), and Tsumiis (Tsumii in singular).
Then there are uncommon pets. They are rarer and harder to obtain as it is more difficult to find them. There are no known uncommon pets in Gaidinia yet.
Even rarer are rare pets. Rare pets are always only one of its kind and off-base. They can be obtained mainly through events.
And finally, there are unique pets. This category is slightly different as it can overlap with another category (ex. rare unique pet, common unique pet, etc.). They are unique because every species in Gaidinia have its own unique pet species, that can be owned only by individuals of said species.

For Kyomes, those are Sny (Sen in singular) and Mory (Mora in singular).
For Thalemimis, those are Falrasi (Falras in singular) and Narmis (Narmi in singular).
And for Nyanarrs, those are Puramene (Purame in singular), Nimavs (Nimav in singular), Yaris (Yari in singular), Zemis (Zemi in singular), Maezi (Maez in singular), Cromi (Cromie in singular), Sneh (Sneh in singular), Zaruus (Zaruu in sigular), Nois (Noi in singular), Veosy (Veos in singular).

===Deities===

Gaidinian mythology is varied and complex. There are tens, hundreds, maybe even thousands of legends and myths, and a lot of them speak about divinity - deities. Deities rule over the island, they keep things going, they keep things in order. There are many ways to categorize them but the most basic one is;

The Old Gods, and the New Gods.

The Old Gods are the ones that founded Gaidinia. They used to rule over the land for centuries, however, these days, they are being worshipped less and less. Common Gaidinians are slowly forgetting about them. The Old Gods used to fight each other very often and during their times Gaidinia was always at some kind of war conflict. The deities that lost their lives in these conflicts are referred to as "Fallen Gods" and their souls find rest and peace in a place called The Dead Gods. It is a place no mortal shall ever visit. You shall never disturb the souls on their final rest.
The New Gods grew tired of this endless war. And so, they came together and decided to establish an alliance. Well, more of a contract, an agreement that forbids them from attacking and fighting each other. After they took over the island there has been peace in Gaidinia ever since. And even if there are deities wishing to bring back the war, the agreement and the other deities are there to protect the peace and ensure it never happens.

The New Gods can be divided into:

Higher Deities - Those are the deities of the greatest power. Their roles are the most important and they are above the other deities. Moon, Sun, Death, Life, Magic, Past, Present, and Future deities belong to this category.Lower Deities - Those are the deities that are below the higher deities. They are still powerful, but weaker than the higher deities. However, no one who values their own life would ever dare to say it all loud. Blood, Art, War, Peace, Prophecy, and Secrets deities belong to this category.
Species Deities - Most of those deities used to be mortals. However, they accomplished a deed that made them more than just a regular member of their species. They have been rewarded for their acts and promoted to deities (gaining immortality along the way). These deities take care of their species, they guide them, protect them, and look after them. Additionally, Kyomes are the only species whose deities were never mortals, however, since the very beginning, they were the ones living in Sidrag - the city of gods.
