You may have noticed that most traits have images on the trait masterlist. These aren't just for show! Trait images are guidelines that show how small or short (green) and tall or long (blue) that trait can generally be. You can use this to help you with your age-ups and re-references.

This month’s trait is Feather Mohawk vs Feather Hair vs Hair (Feathered) vs Hair!

Feather mohawk is a light and fluffy hair-like trait comprised of downy feathers. It is always fluffy unless slicked back with product. It does not reach shoulder length.

Feather hair is a relatively new trait to our never ending list of possibilities. It is “hair” fully composed of long and flexible feathers. There is no actual hair or fur in this trait.The feathers in this trait are not downy and must appear like full feathers.

Hair (Feathered) acts and behaves just like the Hair trait.However, multiple feathers are visible hidden amongst the hair. Feathers cannot make up the majority of this trait.

Hair is simply hair. A long type of fur that originates from the top of the head.

Here are some faunids that showcase these traits to current guideline standards!

We are looking for guest artists!
