Traits

A long and imposing tail composed of multiple layers of fur of differing lengths. The layering and explosivity of the fur gives the appearance of a "rooster" tail.

A tal and thin tail with a fan of fur that adorns the sides, fanning out flat giving the appearance of carrying a banner.

An elegant curling tail that droops a mermaid-like fur shape down onto the back. A distinguished look. High ranking officials, scholars, merchant heads, and head of the guards may be found wearing this style, but it has become more popular for kantis to augment their tails in this fashion. 

An impressively thick and powerful tail that ends in a flurry of fur at the end. Oftentimes only held by those with blood ties to royalty, though that is not as uncommon considering you can gain royal status by being appointed by the people. The natural appearance of this tail at birth may be a premonition of great things to come.

Heir tails continue that trend by oftentimes only appearing on those destined to take the crown, or so they say. This style is rare to come by and is regarded as something to be respected.

An elegant tail swathed in locks of hair that flow with the sway of the tail. Mystical in appearance, these tails are revered for their elegance and ties to old bloodlines.

A long and elegant tail that ends in a gentle puff of fur. The natural appearance of this tail at birth may be a premonition of great things to come.

The priestess tail is a variant of the Heir tail, a little more demure and elegant than the fan of fur that adorns the other.

A long tail that tapers at the end. Can be velvety smooth or have a covering of fur along the top or bottom.

A thin and lengthy tail that is capable of coiling and curling.

One of the strangest tails to come across, or so most will say. The short-tailed Lelokos, affectionally called "bulb-tailed" do face some hardships due to their bulbs; difficulty pick things up off of the ground, plucking things from trees, expressing emotionally through their tails, eating.... A Leloko's tail is incredibly important socially and culturally, and for the bulb tails, they tend to miss out on a lot of the basics that their longer tailed variants earn naturally. This often causes these Lelokos to grow up lacking some of the social cues and physical abilities a longer tail would aid with, making them out to be the "black sheep" of the species. The other side of this unfortunate coin is that Bulb-tailed Lelokos are far more physically capable, their flowers sending their sun-filled energy directly into the body and muscles due to the lack of a tail the energy usually travels through. Endurance and strength are their forte!

• Trait:  

  🔹 Removes the thin long tail normally seen on Lelokos, leaving only their flower. 
  🔹 The flower should follow [Standard Flower] guidelines.
  
  ❗ You may apply uncommon or rare flower types with the appropriate trait items.
  ❗ This flower should not be confused with the [Snaptrap Tail].  (TBA)

The curling, coiling, wrapping quality of this tail may be offputting to some, with each tendril capable of precise coiling and curling. Tendril tailed Lelokos are very capable at multitasking, finding themselves in organizational jobs where a couple extra coils would be extremely helpful. The tendrils are powerful and capable, but due to having a single flower to harness energy, these Lelokos can tire quite easily, though with enough energy from other sources they make a very capable worker. Pawbirds curiously find themselves very comfortable in the presence of a tendril tail, finding comraderie in the perculiarity. 

• Traits:  

  🔹 Causes 1 - 7 long tendrils to sprout from the tail, from the base to the tip.
  🔹 Tendrils can be at most 3/4 of the length of the main tail, and are mostly shorter than that limitation. 
  🔹 Tendrils can sprout from the main tail, or surround it at the base, sprouting from the tailbone. 
  
  ❗ Flowers applied with separate traits cannot grow near the tips of the tendrils, nor at their ends. 

....

• Trait:  

  🔹 Splits the end of the tail into three sections that each end with a matching [Standard Flower]. These flowers may be even in size or shrink slightly amongst the three. 
  🔹 The tail may split evenly or stagger.

The gentle and alluring Bouquet tail is considered elegant and demure, often seen in images of Lelokos of old. Fairytale books depict bouquet tails on their royalty, as well as the lead in romance novels. These tails are very popular for their spread of beautiful blooms and those who bear it are considered possible to wholly draw in the sun. The blooms on this tail tend to stay small due to the amount of energy absorbed by each flower, capable of causing the bearer to fall "Sun Drunk" if exposed to strong sunlight for too long. 

• Trait:  

  🔹 Removes the large tail tip flower and instead allows you to add up to 4- 10 smaller Flowers of the same type along the tail. 
  🔹 The tip of the tail becomes round and cat-like at the tip.
  🔹 The flower should follow [Standard Flower] guidelines.
  
  ❗ You may apply uncommon or rare flower types with the appropriate trait items.

On rare occassions, the hormone that allows a Leloko to grow filaments in their flowers is created in excess, spilling through the tail and causing filaments to appear along the length of the tail. These filaments can wiggle and move similar to their uncommon counterparts, but aren't developed enough to fully taste or sense, though they are still capable of both in some capacity.  Some consider it a hormone imbalance, and may strive to "cure" it, while others find the delicate nature of the filaments to add an elegant element to the Leloko. 

• Trait:  

  🔹 Allows for the application of [Filaments] onto the entire expanse of the tail. Design rules would follow the uncommon trait.
  🔹 Filaments may be mixed and matched and do not have to follow a single design. 
  🔹 Filament placement can vary and does not have to cover the entire tail. Any filaments on the tail would fall under this trait. 
  
  ❗ There is no limit to how many filaments you may apply, but should be identifiable as filaments and cannot be used to create the illusion of fur, hair, or leaves.

A fresh scent carries on the breeze, and when you see the Leloko that waddles by, you immediately understand how. Cotton Lelokos carry with them a gentle scent that emanates from the puffs adorning their tails. The cotton from these tails can be plucked and spun into unique thread that is wonderful for weaving fine or enchanted fabrics. Lelokos with these puffs may sell or trade their puffs in exchange for goods, coin, or services, and can do so once every few months due to the strain on the body removing the puffs causes. The magical imbalance leaves Lelokos feeling faint and weak for a long while, so the spun thread and fabric is highly regarded as a precious act of sacrifice.

• Trait:  

  🔹 Adds 1 - 10 cotton puffs along the length of the tail. 
  🔹 Cotton puffs often have a star shaped center, but may be completely round instead.
  🔹 Cotton puffs may come in any color
  
  ❗ Cotton puffs do not apply to the main tail flower, and are considered a separate addition.
  ❗ Puffs may not look like dandelions, and should be fully solid and "fluffy" in appearance.

The heavy sway of a branch-tailed Lelokos tail often causes others to give them a wide berth. A single bloom is bordered by stiff prongs that extend from the main tail, protruding in random directions. This tail is considered an ailment, with the branches often growing towards the end of the tail, causing it to lose the majority of its flexibility. "Stiff-tailed" Lelokos lose the ability to use their tails to pick things up, often not able to curl their tails fully. It's a kindness to offer to massage a branched Leloko's tail.  

• Trait:  

  🔹 Add prongs along the tail that end in flat planes with rings or swirls giving the illusion of a cut tree branch. 
  🔹 These "branches" often have knobs or additional prongs that also end in flat caps to mimic natural tree branching.
  🔹 The points should always have a flat ring, but may be skewed or angled to give a sharper look. 
  🔹 The branches on this tail are rigid and inflexible, making the Leloko's tail rather stiff in the process. 
  
  ❗ Branches cannot end in sharp thin points or have excessively long branches or prongs (avoid brittle or withered tree appearances)
