Traits

Through evolution and contact with magic, yappies have gotten the permanent presence of slime on their bodies, mostly in place of a tail and head hair. The slime cover contains water, which is essential for the aquatic subspecies: Osin and yappies. Because the water is stored in the slime coat, yappies can travel long distances and endure lower and higher temperatures than Osin. 

What falls under this trait:

• Slime hair / tail that contain water inside. 
• This trait applies when slime hair is present, as well as when a slime tail is present.

Design Notes:

• It's a mandatory trait of the Yappie subspecies;
• The type of hair and the type of tail can be different;
• Slime can have six types and can also be a combination of the available types:
  • Sausage: the hair is represented by several individual thick tubes containing water;
  • Solid: the hair is represented by one massive piece of any shape;
  • Sticky: the hair is represented by one large piece with obvious outgrowths with rounded ends, within which is a liquid core;
  • Octopus: yappie hair is represented by the tentacles of an octopus;
  • Jellyfish: the hair is represented by a single piece containing water, but with a thick shell. It has a wavy shape;
  • Fishy: the hair is represented by the shape of a fish tail.
• Yappies can have a fishy / aquatic tail in the event that it is composed of slime. Imitation of other tails is acceptable as long as the tail is clearly composed of slime: is transparent / translucent / contains water inside it;
• The length of the tail does not exceed the character's height;
• Jelly outgrowths can be growths on the chest, abdomen and thighs, and can also be in the form of fins / frills / webbing.

Redesign Notes:

• The hair type can be freely changed to one of the six hair types or a combination;
• The hair can be freely removed, unlike the tail. If no slime tail is present - the “missing parts” trait is required.
