Shield Wings (+ShlWing) (Combination)

Category: Rixixi
Species: Rixixi

A protective covering over the Rixixi's wings. Usually beetle- or turtle- like.

  • The shell of Shield Wings can use any of the following colors:
    • Lighter or Darker than the base color (or the base color itself)
    • Any Base Coat Color
  • Shield Wings can have shading and shine, but requires the Iridescent gene to have multicolored iridescence. Markings can extend to it, much like with other wing types.
  • If Shield Wings is present with another wing type, you can make a custom "shield" such as one that resembles beetle eltyra, a turtle shell, or Fantasy variants of either of those (eg: something like the Primal Shield Wings base, mountainous/island-like turtle shells, etched or fae-like beetle shells, etc)

 
  • Other wing covers (eg. crystalline, rocky, eggshell, Literal Shields that aren't turtle-like or beetle-like, etc.) are allowed!
  • Custom Shield Wings should still appear on the back of other wing types - if no other wings are present, vestigial wings can be shown if the shield wings are open.
  • The wing under Shield Wings appears as normal.

Combining Wing Types

If you have multiple wing types on a geno, you're allowed to have a pair of both of them display without having Archangel present.

 

Shield Wings is a combination mutation:
Shield Wings has a 20% chance of passing when both Insect Wings and Shell (or Shield Wings itself) are present in the breeding. Combination Mutations do not automatically pass if both mutations that make it up make it onto a Rixixi.
If a Mutation Station is used, Insect Wings or Shell can present visibly on the design without being present in the geno - one Mutation Station is required per mutation.

Shield Wings (ANARCHIE)

Category: B-NOMALY
Species: B-NOMALY

B-NOMALY Trait:

ANARCHIE: Wing Traits

A hard armor over the back of the wings, typically like an insect's elytra or a turtle's shell! Can be any thickness and pattern.

Shield Wings refers to the shell covering the rest of the wing, not the wing type beneath. If the B-NOMALY has no other wing trait, the shell will cover Feathered Wings. You do not have to show the wings beneath Shield Wings (Birch Grove shows this option), but you can if you'd like.

Shield Wings can be applied to any Wings, including Wing Arms.

Examples: Two Turtledoves, Tropical Dragon
