Traits

Mythically Large Ears

Mythically Large Ears (Mythic)

Category: Ear Types

Characters with this trait have ears that are so incredibly larger than the average that they have only been heard of in folktales.
You can see how large this rarity allows ears to be on Kiamaras by looking at our Sizing Guides on the public line sets. 
Dromedairies have no ear size guidelines and so anything outside of their original size is considered mythic.

Elephant Ears

Elephant Ears (Very Rare)

Category: Ear Types
Species: Kiamara

Kiamaras with this trait have ears shaped like those of an Elephant.
This applies to the shape and things such as having them fluffier, flopped, bigger, etc, will need to be used in conjunction with those traits.
If not used in conjunction with a size trait, these ears must still fit inside the common-size box.
Can be asymmetrical.


Examples will be added soon c:

Artio Ears

Artio Ears (Rare)

Category: Ear Types
Species: Kiamara

Kiamaras with this trait have ears shaped like those of mammals in the artiodactyla families, such as rabbits/hares, cows, horses, etc.
This applies to the shape and things such as having them fluffier, flopped, bigger, etc, will need to be used in conjunction with those traits.
If not used in conjunction with a size trait, these ears must still fit inside the common-size box.
Can be asymmetrical.

Acceptable Examples:

All Artio ears must follow a Figure 8 or Ampersand shape where the ear comes in near the base then out again. Here are some examples of this ear shape and what would be acceptable. 
Shape should be visible regardless of any size, texture, directional, or flopped traits applied. 

Hare/ Rabbit --- Equine/Deer --- Bovine
  
(Sizes are for examples only and depend on what size rarity you have)

Bat Ears

Bat Ears (Rare)

Category: Ear Types
Species: Kiamara

Kiamaras with this trait have ears shaped like those of a Bat. This means they are rounded at the base and taper to a point at the end with ribbed fleshy inner ear. These ears do NOT have a thick border around the entirety of the ear (see example image below).
This applies to the shape and fleshy inner ear. 
This trait can be used with the Fluffy Ear trait but the fluff can NOT be on the inner ear. 
If used in conjunction with the Flopped or Directional Ear traits, you must include a clear visual on the ref to show the shape + inner ear to ensure the trait is not confused for another. 
If not used in conjunction with a size trait, these ears must still fit inside the common-size box.
Can be asymmetrical.


Examples will be made prettier soon, just want to give the example of what is and isn't allowed;

The LEFT example would be accepted as Bat Ears. The RIGHT would be Draconic Ears due to the thick border around the ear.

 

 

Humanoid Ears (Mythic)

Category: Ear Types
Species: Kiamara
Directional Ears

Directional Ears (Uncommon)

Category: Ear Types
Species: Kiamara

Kiamaras with this trait have ears that face forwards rather than the average Kiamara, whose ears face backwards. 
This ear type can also work in conjunction with other traits, such as the flopped ear trait and ear size traits. If used with the former, it must be obvious this trait is used.
These ears must still remain within the Common Ear box unless used in conjunction with an ear size trait.

Possible Examples:
If used on its own:

If used in conjunction with the floppy ear trait:

Any other ear trait, such as size traits, fluffier ears, etc can still be attached to these ears, however, the flopped ear combined with the directional ear types have specific rules.

 

Click one of the above examples to go to the trait you would need to obtain the looks above. 
Please note; the first example is to show shape only and would be bound by the size trait applied to the ear on length.

Declinable Examples:

The directional x flopped ear combinations can be styled differently depending on whether you wish to go for a more canine-based floppy ear or a bunny-based floppy ear. 


this is a good example of a bunny-type flopped directional ear. If the tip is pulled upwards, it would be facing forward due to the position in front of the cheek


Whilst the shape is certainly bunny-like, if the tip is pulled upwards the ear would be facing backwards due to the position behind the cheek. This does not meet the directional trait requirement.

 

Flopped Ears

Flopped Ears (Uncommon)

Category: Ear Types
Species: Kiamara

Kiamaras with this trait have flopped, or half-flopped ears. 
This can be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Must face backwards unless used in conjunction with the Directional Ears trait. 
Must be common in size unless used in conjunction with any Ear-Length trait. 
Guides for the official linesets can be found here. 

NOTE: If you decide to have your Kiamara's ears being asymmetrical, you will need to make two references: one for each side of the Kiamara. This is so we can accurately trait the ear sizes for you. 

Possible Examples:
If used on its own:

     

If used in conjunction with the directional ear trait:

Any other ear trait, such as size traits, fluffier ears, etc can still be attached to these ears, however, the flopped ear combined with the directional ear types have specific rules. These are only a few examples and more versions can be made depending on how flopped you want the ear to be!

 

Click one of the above examples to go to the trait you would need to obtain the looks above. 

Declinable Examples:

The directional x flopped ear combinations can be styled differently depending on whether you wish to go for a more canine-based floppy ear or a bunny-based floppy ear. 


this is a good example of a bunny-type flopped ear. if the tip is pulled upwards the ear would be facing backwards due to the position behind the cheek. 
 


Whilst the shape is certainly bunny-like, if the tip is pulled upwards the ear would be facing forwards due to the position in front of the cheek. This would only be acceptable if used in conjunction with the directional ear trait.
