Variant numbers and types will be listed in the traits for each specific character. This trait is still being talked about being revised again after the rest of the changes being made.

Heterochromia (Uncommon)

Category: Eyes

Eyes that are two (or more, if there are more than two eyes present) different colors.

Visual Example & Additional Trait Notes

Heterochromia falls into two categories: Matching and Mismatching.

If one or more of the colors does NOT match the water, the character will have both the heterochromia and mismatching eye color traits.

Colored Sclera (Rare)

Category: Eyes

The sclera of the eye is a lighter or more saturated color than white or the iris color. Dark/black colored scleras are also considered to be under this trait.

Shaped Irises (Rare)

Category: Eyes

When the colored part of the eye (the iris) is shaped differently than just a normal circle.

NOTE: Shaped PUPILS (the black part of the eye) are not considered a trait and is considered stylistic.

No Eyes (Legendary)

Category: Eyes

The eyes are completely absent from the face but the nose and mouth remain. Please note, this is not the same as missing eyes due to injury or disability!

Standard Sclera (Common)

Category: Eyes

The sclera of the eye is white, off-white, or pale-yellow in color. Saturated yellow/orange-colored scleras may fall under colored-sclera if they are too unnatural looking.

Non-Matching Eyes to Water (Uncommon)

Category: Eyes

Eye color does not match any of the water colors. (Eyes can be any color, including rainbow WITHOUT needing rainbow water  being bought).

Visual Example & Additional Trait Notes

- If paired with color changing water, the eye colors still cannot match the colors the water changes to. If the eye colors were to match, multiform is needed for Mismatching Eye Color AND Matching Eye Color.

Abnormal Eye Placement (Legendary)

Visual Example & Additional Trait Notes

- Multi-eye must be paired with this trait if you are placing multiple sets of eyes on the body. Each additional set of eyes added to the body is x1 Runestone/Legendary Treat.

- As long as the eye-sockets are still shown on the face, you may move the set of eyes normally on the face to another part of the body. If the eye-sockets were not present, then the ‘no-eyes’ exclusive trait is needed.
