Traits

This mutation occurs naturally only, it cannot appear over time. There is no limit to how many limbs can be featured on a Dextroluma, however additional torsos cannot be added - you have to work with the typical humanoid shape.  All the following options can be placed anywhere on the body, not only where they would naturally grow from - this includes limbs, hands, feet, facial features, genitalia, breasts, even heads.

[Note that if a ref of a child-aged Dextroluma includes this trait, you MAY NOT depict extra genitalia or your reference will be rejected and you will receive a warning.]

Crystal Overgrowth can affect any Dextroluma.  While it commonly grows through wounds in the skin, it can easily grow over body parts, covering or even destroying eyes, legs, and more.  Most Dextroluma will try to keep their crystals under control by removing them from the body if they become uncomfortable, but it can flare out of control unpredictably.  Crystals can be ANY COLOR and do not need to match the glow color(s).

Flower Overgrowth can, at a glance, seem similar to the final stage of Necrosis (the 5th Stage) or to the Swamp Region’s Moss Growth.  Of course, it is quite different.  Only flowers and small leafy plants can grow from Flower Overgrowth - no mushrooms, vines, or moss.  Like Crystal Overgrowth, it commonly grows through wounds in the skin.  It can easily grow over body parts, covering or even destroying eyes, legs, and more.  Most Dextroluma will try to keep their flowers under control by removing them from the body if they become uncomfortable and pruning regularly, but it can flare out of control unpredictably.  Flowers and plants can be ANY COLOR and do not need to match the glow color(s) or natural colors.

Some Dextroluma grow scales on their skin - sometimes they have them from birth, and other times they are grown later in life, brought on by unknown circumstances. While it is popularly believed that scales hearken back to an ancestor of the Dextroluma, evidence is inconclusive at this time. Scales do not harm the body, and can grow in anything from small patches to completely covering most of the skin. Most Dextroluma whose scales grow in large quantities will try to keep them only where they find them comfortable, and may also prune them to create a better aesthetic, but it isn’t necessary to do that. Scales can be sharp and pointed, and others round and soft feeling, like fish, and can glimmer under light. Scales can be ANY COLOR and do not need to match the glow color(s).

Some Dextroluma may possess different feet depending on the region they are genetically from. Typically a Dextroluma's feet and legs match (two normal feet, two frog feet etc.) However sometimes Dextroluma possess legs that do not match each other (one hoof and one frog leg, one paw and one hoof leg).

[Note: This can only occur within their like region category and can not cause , for example frog and pawed feet to be mixed]

In addition, Dextroluma of the Hyperspace, Delta and or Crystal region can be born with floating fins or horns. Most of the time, all horns and all fins are affected however in some instances one fin or horn may float while another on the body may not.

On rare occasions, a Dextroluma may be born with functional wings. These are wholly different from the wings of the Fairy Glen Dextroluma, as they are able to work for flight and are most commonly feathered bird wings, leather bat wings or can sometimes appear to be made of unique materials.

On rare occasions, a Dextroluma may be born with horns that are an abnormal material. These are generally things not found naturally in the world, such as glass or metal, and can be filled with liquids.

On rare occasions, a Dextroluma may be born with skin that is sheer and shows their bones and/or organs. This can affect the entire body or only a section of it.  As the Dextroluma ages, they may learn to change how transparent their skin is, though that is not a given.

On rare occasions, a Dextroluma may be born with the ability to summon something.  Most often this is a creature of some sort - and not always one native to Aerius - but it may also be weapons or other items. There are many theories on this particular innate ability, but no conclusions as to why some Dextroluma have it.

Quills are a quite unusual feature among Dextroluma, but some are born with them anyways. These quills can grow from any part of the body, and match the skin color or glow color(s) of the Dextroluma. They can aid the Dextroluma in their spatial awareness, similar to a cat’s whiskers, and can give them sensory input about motion of things near them both in water and on land.

Most Dextroluma's eyes indicate whether they are pure, cured or corrupt however, some Dextroluma’s eyes will abruptly change to match their glow color(s). This is believed to be caused by a short-lived virus, but scientists have not had much opportunity to study it or figure out how it is contracted by some Dextroluma and not by others in their lives. Regrettably, this change can cause problems for the Dextroluma who contract it, as it is often mistaken for necrosis.

Some Lockettes manifest with ‘chains’ attaching their charms to their collar.  The reasons for this are unknown, but it happens so often it is seen as unremarkable.  These ‘chains’ are often literal chains, but can also be strings or ropes or something else.

On occasion, a Lockette manifests with wings.  These wings can be anywhere on the shell and of any size, with larger ones sometimes being capable of letting the Lockette fly.  They may also take different forms - feathered, leather, insect, or even being comprised of metal or something else.  The wings may represent a clue at the origin of their saura, though there is little conclusive evidence to this supposition.

On occasion, a Lockette manifests with horns.  These horns can be anywhere on the shell and of any size.  They may also be made of anything, though it is more typical to see ones made of skin, bone, or scales.  The horns may represent a clue at the origin of their saura, though there is little conclusive evidence to this supposition.

On occasion, a Lockette manifests with one or more halos.  These halos can be anywhere on or around the shell and of any size.  They may also be made of anything.  The halos may represent a clue at the origin of their saura, though there is little conclusive evidence to this supposition.

Some Lockettes do not manifest only with one pair of ears, but with multiple.  While at least two of the total ears on these Lockettes will always have their charm, there are occasionally additional ears seen where the charm is not present.  The extra ears do not always match in shape, but each individual pair of ears will match (such as having one pair of cat ears and one pair of dog ears).

Some Lockettes do not manifest only with one tail, but with multiple.  While at least one tail on these Lockettes will always have their charm, there are occasionally extra tails seen where the charm is not present.  The extra tails do not always match in shape.

Some kipitins are created with crystal on their bodies.  It doesn’t hurt them, and it doesn’t grow beyond the areas it naturally occurs.  It’s not something contagious either, just an unusual feature that sometimes appears.

Body crystals does not transfer to the smoke form, as everything solid about the kipitin becomes smoke.

On occasion, a kipitin is created with wings.  These wings can be anywhere on the body and of any size, with larger ones sometimes being capable of letting the kipitin fly.  They may also take different forms - feathered, leather, insect, or even being comprised of metal or something else.  The wings can be toggled on and off by Kipitins.

Wings do not transfer to the smoke form unless they are made of smoke (which requires utilizing the partial smoke transformation), as everything solid about the kipitin becomes smoke.

Most Lockettes have standard saura.  This saura is generally sheer or even invisible, and tends to coalesce closely together with no stray wisps escaping unless there has been a recent serious injury or the keyhole is temporarily emitting some to remove excess from the shell.  This saura has no negative associations or effects in Lockette society.  It’s fully possible for a Lockette with standard saura to be a horrible individual, but it is not expected.
