General Info
Important Things to know before looking through the trait lists!
✦ Traits like horns and tails are not limited to what is shown in the images and new ones will be added. The traits shown are just to give a general idea of what what each rarity tier should look like! The exception is crests, which should look like what is shown. ✦ Always remember to read over what an item does before using it on your character! ✦ You can "combine" traits to make hybrids of two different styles. The rarity will be which ever tier it resembles more. ✦ All traits must be CLEARLY SHOWN on the design to count as that trait. If the trait is not shown on a reference submitted to the masterlist, the design will not have that trait. Ex: If you have glowing eyes but the hair covers them, you must provide us with a separate eye reference. If you have aura breath, you must show the character using it on the reference in some form. ✦ Trait reference images and information are still in the process of being updated! ✦ If you have any specific questions about traits or anatomy, please feel free to ask via note or discord! |

Basic Anatomy
✦ A crest - One of the most important things, a core feature of the species!
• A browbird's crest is a manifestation of the energy of the browbird's soul, and it is also where they mainly draw their magical energy from.
• All browbirds MUST have a crest, no crest would mean no life or magic, you'd just be an unmoving corpse without one!
✦ Horns - Almost every browbird will have horns.
• No horns at all is a rare trait.
✦ Tail - Tails are standard for browbirds.
• No tail at all is a rare trait.
✦ At least ONE aspect is required for a design to pass. If you cannot think of other aspects for your character, or want to wait on the decision, you can leave your other aspect slot(s) blank until you decide!
