Corruption Guide

All Faunids are created in Herne's vision; they are pure and kindhearted beings. However, a subgroup of Faunids have sought to disrupt the restrictions set by their community. Violence and disharmony are rampant in the community labeled as "corrupt."

Leading this godless cult is Fenris. He is a formidable demi-god who is known for acts of depravity. His speeches and velvety voice travel easily through the chilled air for anyone—living or dead—to hear. Spirits of Faunids have heard his summons and rather than wait to be reborn as a Fawn, they wish to taint the purity of a living Faunid and live through their host through possession.  
‍
Are you willing to aid a vengeful spirit?

During the four weeks of Corruption, you will have the opportunity to have a lovely semi-custom toothy lad!
‍
The first step will be to gather your items from Fenris by submitting a form below.
You will then receive 6 tokens that each represent their own traits. You are not required to use the tokens and can trade/sell/gift/throw away any that you receive. Rolling for your items is free!

With the desired tokens you have now gathered, you can make a corrupt faunid by submitting a form! Your form will be approved by an admin and then a staff member will DM you for payment confirmation.
Good luck and have a spooky season!

All Faunids from this event will be created on the Corrupted Faunid bases, with edits!

All Corrupted Faunids are relatively de-saturated with only one or two brighter/saturated colors.

2 Corruptions/re-corruptions allowed per user per event.
OR
1 Corrupt semi-custom and 1 Corruption/re-corruption

Each semi-MYO may have a maximum of:
4 non-corrupt traits
3 corrupt traits (1 minimum)
For a total of 7 traits.

Each corruption of an EXISTING non-corrupt Faunid may have a maximum of 5 additional traits
(At least one corrupt trait required)

You are allowed to age a fawn using corruption.

You may gift/trade items that Fenris gives you.

You may put a Faunid through further corruption and submit an existing Corrupted Faunid. Above rule applies.

If corrupting/re-corrupting an EXISTING Faunid or Corrupted, traits from this event will be ADDED to the faun's current traits/edits. Corruption will be on the corrupted base. Re-corruption may occur on the existing design or be redone based on complexity.

You don't have to specifically name traits in the form you want if you don't know them or care! Artists will work off of your used tokens.

***NEW IN 2025***

You may corrupt a Merfaun, though additional complexity fees may apply.

Minodae are NOT eligible for Corruption this year.

Users may NOT request and Official Artists may NOT draw religious symbols or runes from existing human cultures (such as Nordic runes, crosses, pentagrams, etc.) on Corrupts, but may include or create new Faunid Runes.

Users may include concepts of Faunid Sigils to include on their Corrupts, or request that their Corrupt has sigils/runes in some way on their body.

Users may request that a Faunid Sigil be made officially to represent their Corrupt as part of their form (which will be its own supplemental art given at the same time as that Corrupt's release). Creation of an official Sigil will include a $5 fee and is purely for fun.

You may re-roll a finished Corrupt similarly to how Fawning re-rolls work. Additional payment of base price and a new inspiration form submission are required.

To participate in Corruption, you must have an account on our website. This is where all forms will be posted.

LINKS TO BE UPDATED. FORMS CLOSED FOR 2025.
