Traits

Multiple Heads (Legendary)

Category: Body

More than one head attached to a Waterdog/Watercats body! (Must be in a natural place on the neck/shoulders)

Visual Example & Additional Trait Notes

Breed Specific Body Type (Rare)

Category: Body

Breed Specific Body is used when wanting physical attributes that don't look like a 'standard' canine/wolf or cat/big cat (AKA: They are breed specific!)
These would include wanting short legs, taller legs, corgi body, poodle hair, etc...

[IMPORTANT: Extended information on breed specific body (or BSB) can be found below:]

Visual Example & Additional Trait Notes

The below examples demonstrate Poodles, Lykois, and Munchkins/short legs

bsb%20poodle.pngbsb%20lykloi.pngbsb%20munchkin.png

- This trait is only for NATURAL real-life animal breeds. Anything unnatural looking (like noodle-body, giraffe, etc.) would go under Abnormal Body

- 'Mini' breeds are no longer being recognized as they are a loophole for the past 'abnormal size change' trait. Any 'mini' breeds will now be considered Extra-small (XS) and will need Abnormal Body (Size XS)

- The breed specific body trait will automatically cover any other traits in the species with your design, just with the addition of BSB. This means something like a basset hound, would not need to have long ears purchased/added on to your MYO as it will be automatically added in under BSB (though we still require it to be listed.)

---
Breeds that can be naturally made with the traits we have in the species already are NOT considered breed specific body (BSB).
(For Example: An Australian Shepherd can be made by using the bob tail + folded ears trait.)
The breed you are using for your design MUST physically change the body type in some way- by either changing height, drastic fur shape (such as poodles,) length, muzzle, build, etc... Breeds that do not change the body will not be allowed to be used as a BSB-body type, as they can be made with a normal MYO.

Any 'Generic' Dog Build

Aussie/Australian Shepherd

Abnormal Wing Placement (Legendary)

Category: Body

Odd wing placements on the body anywhere besides the natural position on the point of the shoulder.

Body/Limb Segmentation (Legendary)

Category: Body

Parts of the body or limb are able to detach and reattach at will! This includes the head.

Stitching (Rare)

Category: Body

"Frankenstein" style stitches that attach two or more pieces of fur together. Can be a marking or different fur patterns.
Stitching with gaps/holes require this, as well as the Open Stitching legendary trait.
This is NOT the same as the shaped sand fabric trait.

Open Stitching (Legendary)

Category: Body

Stitching on a Waterdog/Watercat that is loose, revealing holes/gaps, or releasing things trapped within that is not natural (stuffing, etc...)
This trait also needs the ‘stitching’ trait alongside it.

Wyvern (Legendary)

Category: Body

The front legs are replaced entirely with a set of wings, like a bat or a wyvern.
The wrist of the wing acts as a paw, in that it can hold the body's weight when placed on the ground. Wyvern wings can come in different styles. The Seraph wing trait is required for additional sets of wyvern wing ‘limbs’. 

Wyverns do NOT need a sand sweater if their wings are sand- UNLESS they also have a set of regular paws attatched to the wings.

Abnormal Body (Legendary)

Category: Body

Any kind of specific unique body shape that is not within the confines of other body type traits.
This trait is NOT the same as Breed Specific Body.

- New Abnormal Body Traits might not be approved depending on how drastic they are. If you are unsure if something works, please DM a moderator or ask in the discord.

- Abnormal Body Traits may be removed from this category and made into their own trait over time based on the popularity of it being added onto new designs, and depending on if it would work as it’s own trait category. (Example: mermaid/gorgon body)

- Long Body is able to use both the sand sweater / sand shirt and sand pants / sand shorts traits at the same time, due to the extra amount of water present on the body.

- Corruption does not specifically need to be on the water, it can also take place on the character's sand.

- Color changing water can be used to give corruption alternate color forms.
