Traits
Colorpitch Matter (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
The B-NOMALY's greymatter is made of colorpitch! This can show anywhere the greymatter shows, and can optionally show on flesh, nails, beak, and so on if the greymatter isn't visible. This does not have to be colorpicked from the colorpitch item, and can be lighter or darker, as long as it is noticeably a similar color range. It can be a gradient, and this is recommended!
Examples:
Translucent Body (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
Parts of - or all of - the B-NOMALY's body is translucent! This should not mimic the Window Belly trait if done in part, otherwise, have fun with it!
Bones and organs can optionally show - remember that these are often strange in A-NOMALIES! Musculature should not show.
Hydra (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Head and Face Traits
Multiple heads all over the body. Hydra heads can sprout from random locations on the body, or replace limbs/tailtips! A Hydra B-NOMALY should not have two/three heads sprouting from the shoulders, as this is how Cerberus presents. They can have as few as two heads, but these must be in different locations than the shoulders.
Traits and general appearance may be different on each head without Doppelganger.
Hydra heads typically have their own personalities, and may go by their own names!
Examples: Mega Bunny
Weaponed Tail (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Tail Traits
Weaponed Tail can refer to any tail weapon, from tail spades to clubs to actual weapons attached to the tail.
Spikes are often made of horn- or claw-like material, but can be unusual materials (metallic, crystalline, etc) in some cases.
Weaponed Tail overrides B-Class tail traits.
Examples:
Ultraviolet (Anarchic Modifiers)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Anarchic Modifier
Examples:
Fogholder (Anarchic Modifiers)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Anarchic Modifier
Fogholder adds a second form to the B-NOMALY.
The OUBLIETTE, in normal and Anarchic form.
The second form - often referred to as the Anarchic form - warped with radiation, is typically larger, with exaggerated features and traits. The B-NOMALY's color scheme should resemble its original form, but due to physical features shifting in size, shape, and placement, noticeable differences in appearance are not uncommon. New traits can appear on the Anarchic Form, which can include, but is not limited to:
- Traits that the original B-NOMALY did not have - for example, the OUBLIETTE only has Halos in Anarchic form. Existing B-NOMALY traits should be limited to one or two additional traits unless the B-NOMALY also has Doppelganger.
- Traits that do not exist in B-NOMALY! For example, OPEN WIDE!'s fullbody maws and internal void of teeth.
The B-NOMALY enters this form when in areas containing high Anarchic Radiation, such as the area around The Vat, or inside the Chasm. Fogholders are drawn to sources of Anarchic Radiation, and tend to idly wander towards them. Fogholder is a piece of the Chasm trapped inside of the B-NOMALY that reacts to the B-NOMALY's volatile nature by shapeshifting them.
Optional Lore: If a Fogholder breeds with another B-NOMALY while in Fogholder form, the offspring tend to look like Fogholders - exaggerated and chaotic; even if they don't have the Fogholder trait, or if they do, their normal form is warped and their Fogholder form even more so.
It takes 2x Nskanetian Token: Anarchic Fogshard to apply Fogholder to a B-NOMALY.
Examples: Oubliette | Anarchic, OPEN WIDE! Reference, Hellwalker | Anarchic, Mayhem Reference
Glitter (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
This bun literally forms glitter from their fur! It rains down intermittently and slowly, like a shimmering drizzle made of sparkles. Their fur is always shining, but they make quite the mess to clean up wherever they go!
Examples: Nine Ladies Dancing, Mayhem
Incense (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
Parts of the B-NOMALY heat up and create a colorful, scented smoke. The most common source of the smoke is the tips of the ears, the paws, the tail, the mouth, or the horns if the B-NOMALY has them. If the B-NOMALY has any exposed scar tissue or greymatter, incense will commonly appear there as well.
The smoke typically smells pleasant, but this isn't always the case, and of course this depends on the preferences of the person smelling it. Incense B-NOMALIES also have the ability to breathe fire in short bursts.
The smoke tends to share some properties with the anarchic mists of fog-holders, and may be connected somehow.
Examples: Eleven Pipers Piping, Ice Cold Veins
Bioluminescence (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
The B-NOMALY's greymatter gives off a bright glow! This can show through the skin all over or as markings. Flesh and scars should also glow!
Since this comes from inside the B-NOMALY, it often has a harder time showing on dark colors. Darker B-NOMALIES - such as Death's Lantern - can show bioluminescence, it just often shows on their lighter markings.
Examples: Twelve Drummers Drumming, Trick and Treat
Problems (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
Various internal organs now float around the B-NOMALY. This, surprisingly, doesn't hurt them. It's just unsettling.
Examples: FRIED MEME, RXX-NOMALY - FRIED MEME x3
Throatpouch (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
A pouch in the neck that can expand and contract, useful for storing food, water, air, inanimate objects, other B-NOMALIES, you name it. Often shaped like a pelican's pouch, frog's vocal sac, a frigatebird's throat sac, or other similar throat-based expandable pouches.
B-NOMALIES with a throatpouch often can expand their jaws further, for the sake of fitting larger things into the pouch. Friends of Throatpouch B-NOMALIES are advised to not allow them to swallow old CRT televisions, no documented case has gone well.
Examples: Champion Apple-Bobber, The Three Celestials
Sweet Matter (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
The B-NOMALY is edible, and their greymatter is flavored - not necessarily, but often, sweet! This can cause problems in traditionally mortal B-NOMALIES, but B-NOMALIES capable of surviving being partially eaten (Gecko Tail B-NOMALIES, for example) can sometimes be seen offering parts of themselves to others.
Examples: Sweet Matter cannot be shown on the masterlist art, but many Sweet Matter B-NOMALIES are themed around sweets.
Always Anthro (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Body Type Traits
While most B-NOMALIES can stand on their hind legs, Always Anthro B-NOMALIES have a bipedal stance by default, often having a more humanoid shape overall as well.
Examples: Magpie Anarchie, A Giant Blizzard
Doppelganger (Anarchic Modifiers)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Anarchic Modifier
Doppelganger modifies a trait on the B-NOMALY. The modified trait can take on an entirely different appearance from the rest of the B-NOMALY, and if it can have other traits touching it, those traits can be different the rest of the B-NOMALY. Whether or not a trait can have more traits touching it is fairly up in the air - with B-NOMALIES, wings can have eyes on them, after all.
Doppelganger is easiest to use on traits that cause split heads/body parts - if there's a cutaway point on the body, it's easier to know where to change your traits.
Doppelganger Bisected - both sides of the body have different traits and appearances, split at the bisection point.
Doppelganger Dullahan - Floating body parts have different traits and appearances
Doppelganger Amphisbaena - both sides of the body have different traits and appearances, split at the spinal split. Tail traits solely come from the left side.
When Doppelganger modifies Fogholder, it allows the B-NOMALY to have two entirely different forms.
Doppelganger can alter traits that are not as clear on how they would affect the B-NOMALY - this may be challenging! The Doppelganger-modified trait may not change any traits if it does not come into contact with anything that would have additional traits on it, but it should be noticeably different in appearance than the rest of the B-NOMALY.
Doppelganger Angora - the Angora "side" would have Misplaced Eyes and Many Eyes, where the rest of the B-NOMALY does not.
Doppelganger Sunbeams - does not have additional traits, but does alter appearance. Alters appearance of neck and eye where sunbeams ring it.
- Doppelganger can be carried and not present, especially if it wouldn't be easy to find a presentation for it on the B-NOMALY in question.
- If you have a MYO with a maximum number of Anarchic traits, and you use Doppelganger on that MYO, your maximum number of traits listed is both "sides" of Doppelganger combined togther - minus one for Doppelganger itself.
- For example, A 15-trait MYO with Doppelganger would have 14 Anarchic traits to spare for both sides combined, and this can be split as evenly as 7 on one and 7 on the other, as unevenly as 14 on one side and 0 on the other, or anything in between.
Examples: See above.
Gills (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Body Traits
The B-NOMALY has gills on their neck! External gills are allowed!
Examples: Seven Swans A-Swimming, Chocolate Wrapper
E. Porphyria (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
Erythropoietic porphyria, an IRL liver disorder. In B-NOMALIES, this causes the greymatter color to show in teeth, claws, the beak, and any traits similar to horns or spikes (Horns, Back Spikes, Spurs, etc).
The greymatter will change color under UV light, but this may not show in the masterlist image. This can show in art!
Some B-NOMALIES with this trait avoid sunlight, as it causes pain.
Examples:
Fringehead (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Head and Face Traits
Either or both mouths can flare out like the Sarcastic Fringehead fish!
Beaks with Fringehead can have fangs without the Hen's Teeth trait, and bun mouths with Fringehead can have fangs without the Little Pointy Teeth trait!
Examples:
Crown of Thorns (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Head and Face Traits
Plant life grows from the bun's head, branching out into long antlers or spiking up as little thorns. Leaves sometimes grow from the area. While the "Crown" of Crown of Thorns must always appear on the head, plant life can appear elsewhere on the bun as well - leaves appearing in the wings, flowers in the tail or along the back, etc.
When appearing with Crown of Thorns, Horns will appear as well as the Crown - for example, Birch Grove
Examples: Grade B-NOM Eggs #5, Ghost of the Frost
Leyline (ANARCHIE)
B-NOMALY Trait:
ANARCHIE: Misc. Traits
Leyline overrides the face traits and facial features of the B-NOMALY. All facial features are removed - including any traits residing on the face - leaving a blank, smooth head shape. The head shape can be flat, or it can be a regular B-NOMALY head, but lacking facial features. Markings can still appear on the B-NOMALY's face as normal. The B-NOMALY can still talk (from where, it isn't clear), and the lack of nose and mouth doesn't seem to inhibit breathing - the mutation doesn't hurt the B-NOMALY, but it may be startling, especially since this mutation is usually obtained by spending too long in the land of the dead.
Misplaced Eyes can cause eyes to appear on the face - typically not where they would have been originally.
Traits that appear on the back or side of the head but not on the face can optionally appear or be removed, depending on what the designer wants to do with them - ears, horns, and so on can all be optionally removed or kept. The Crown in Crown of Thorns can be removed by Leyline without removing the rest of the trait.
Due to leyline influence, this trait can optionally tint the B-NOMALY's greymatter shades of blue.
