usage:

• If the character has eyes, these could move around on their own physical body, freely and with ease.

usage:

• The individual's varying body parts (such as limbs, eyeballs, head, etc.) could be detached and levitating.

SAMPLE:

lore:

• Work in progress, to be added later.

usage:

• The character is able to have multiple physical variants of themself, beyond the base and power form. They are able to shift palletes and body silhoette.

• The character remains singular in physical count. This trait covers the design's physical appearance only.

• Each variant may have their own unique bodytype, colors, markings, and variety of traits - as long as all are within its official trait list.

• There is no limit to how many variants you can add, as long as the species remain the same throughout all the variants.

lore:

• Work in progress, to be added later.

• Caused by the starborn species crashing into such during its development. The intense and/or prolonged exposure grants immunity to said material.

usage:

• The character is partially or primarily made out of a specific material.

• This may cover singular or multiple body parts entirely. 

• Please make sure to list what elemental material you are using so admin can add it to the traits list properly.

• Please refrain from using abstract concepts — such as Reality, Distortion, Time, Matter, Emotions, Life, Death, and similar flavors that are not exactly physically tangible or are generally too visually metaphorical.

• Examples of allowed materials can be fire, electricity, water, fluids, slime, goo, chemicals, toxins, poison, gas, cloud, dust, air, light, shadow, plants, flowers, fungus, mushrooms, wood, sand, oil, gold, silver, plush, cloth, glass, plastic, metal, wires, paper, devices, object-specific, computer glitch, static, ghost, nebula, meat, blood, decay, and similar others.

• You can mix and match. There is no limit to the amount of elemental materials you may apply to your character.

• Physical material parts directly attached to the body that resemble an aid to a missing limb of a character, or assistive to a disability, do not count. Those are considered to be prosthetics and are not traited; those are entirely free.

SAMPLE:

lore:

• Work in progress, to be added later.

• The indvidual is able to generate ghostly spores, split from and similar to its physical appearance. The amount depends on the individual's physical ability and are intended to provide assistance and share goals in some way to its origin.

• These ghostly spores are not sentient, but are similar to thought bubbles given temporary form - in order to help the individual execute a specific action. As an example; it can be compared to a wizard creating a magical fireball that will disappear once it has finished beelining to a nearby wooden bonfire, then flickers away upon accomplishing its goal of setting that alit.

• If the goal is left unaccomplished, these underlings typically last hours to a few days maximum - before they fizzle into nothingness or remerge with their source if such is nearby. Though it is unsurprising if others have practiced the skill for these to last much longer.

• These ghostly spores are able to travel great distances depending on the skill of its creator, and how much they are aware of the ability's ancient scripts. The trait's name references a mythical forest within Mournfell named "Infinite Roots". Now-departed scholars of Planet Xaoc observed its local flora for centuries to learn from, only to discover what was assumed to be clusters of trees were actually veins of an unmoving giant far below the ground - its species likely being one of their own. The location is now classified and treated as sacred grounds, while presentday researchers figure out whether the collosal being is decaying or actually alive and still growing the rest of its form.

usage:

• The design of these spores must be evidently simple in silhoette, and use colors existing in the main design. The gauge we use is ensuring it cannot be mistaken for another form, and must not be larger than the head.

• These spores can have dotted eyes, simple shaped mouths, and tiny limbs (with no apparent digits like fingers). 

• Each individual spore can have varying shapes, sizes, and patterns - as long as they all use colors from the original main form's design.

lore:

• Work in progress, to be added later.

usage:

• For Redesigns and new MYO submissions starting September 2025 and onwards: An additional headshot or body view showing original fissures or bodily slits must be included in the artwork as well.

• This trait is a skill that can be toggled.

• The Xulap has the ability to hide their mouth cracks or lines partially or entirely. 

• The Xaeco has the ability to obscure their bodily slits partially or entirely.

lore:

• Work in progress, more to be added later.

• The weakened physical stage of a Planet Xaoc character, where one is at a full rest and no effort is exerted into maintaining a more defined, finite form. This may have resulted from a reality distorting event, overexhaustion of their abilities, or a near-death experience.

• Some also choose to use this form when entering a hibernation-adjacent state, or intend to have a full physical shut down when resting in order to conserve energy (for longterm travel, missions, or similar preparatory reasons).

usage:

• Allows the character to have a variant that looks like a literal simplified, veiny figure. The silhoette and its colors should be based on the main form.

• Allows the character to have a variant where it only affects them partially: such as a limb or other specific body part. The original design (unaffected main form) should still be present on the masterlist image.

SAMPLE:

lore:

• Work in progress, to be added later.

usage:

• The character is able to duplicate themself. Each clone is identitical to the existing design.

• There is no limit to how many duplicates the character is able to do. 

• Whether they have a hivemind or individual mental headspace is upto the creator.

• This is a skill, and not necessary to be shown in the masterlist.  For the ability to have multiple palettes and varying traits per additional duplicated body, you must also have the Anomaly: Morph trait.
