Written Trait Guide
MUST HAVES:
Core form —
- 6 limbs
- round shape
- center pupil (their main "eye")
- pupils on tail and ears (if available, tails and ears are OPTIONAL for Cores to have but if they have them they need pupils of some kind)
- drippy oil coming off it (its actually skin oils/mucus to keep them safe from outside contaminants/harm!)
Natural form —
- Core leaks from ears, eyes, and tail and covers them (if available)
- If horns, wings, spikes, etc. are present the core will leak and cover/dye them as well (anything connected to the seam/spine area or internal)
- Core leaks to hand-elbow and foot-knee and dyes the skin there
- Internal organs, tongue, gore are all the color of the core
- If the core doesn't have ears/tail, it doesn't have to have them in Natural form either
- Can have claws/more sharp nails when in natural form (opt)
- Core-covered appendages like ears or tail should “drip” bc of large amounts of mucus present
