Traits

Land mhoats with this trait form a long noodley body, a slender tube-like snout, and appear to lack sections of exposed goo often seen in many of their fellow mhoats. Despite lacking front limbs, these mhoats seem to have additional muscular strength throughout the long portions of their body allowing them to wrap and curl around themselves to maintain balance and avoid dragging their bodies across the ground.

This odd trait causes a mhoat's shell to become soft and hairless with layers of wrinkles forming all over much like one might see on a sphynx cat and in turn their goo takes on a fluffy, fur-like appearance. This fluffy texture affects every part of the mhoat's goo, including the eyes, mouth, and other internal structures. All goo color rules and traits still apply, despite the odd appearance the goo takes on.

This trait alters a mhoat's body, causing their form to resemble a variety of wooden puppets with a more pieced-together, segmented appearance. These segments can be more stable and interlocking or looser and sectioned, with sections of goo peeking out in areas where the segments shift more during movement. Alongside these unique bodies, mhoats form a strange plant-like nose that can grow and branch out when triggered by different emotions. Their emotions don't determine the type of branching plant that grows from their nose but can reflect them, such as a thorny rhino horn if the growth is caused by anger or a floral branch if caused by emotions of love.

This trait causes a mhoat's fur to become overgrown to the point it can obscure most parts of the body. This hair doesn't grow in sections where goo would be, but it can obscure those areas of the body when the hair falls in long drapes. Alongside this, the length of the hair can extend most tail traits beyond the length limits and even affect a mhoat's overall mobility when left loose.

This trait causes the areas on a mhoat that are shell and goo to swap places, which means the eyes, mouth, internal structures, hooves, and front limbs all become covered in the shell while the rest of the body loses that protective covering, and displayed the goo hidden beneath. On mhoats, this trait causes blindness but doesn't appear to impact their ability to navigate the world.

Mhoats with this trait have a shell that forms in a unique way in large rounded pieces that span the back and face while the rest of their body lacks the shell and only displays goo. The rounded shell allows a mhoat to curl up in a ball as a defensive mechanism or even to roll short distances if they have built up a bit of speed. They don't tend to be great at navigation when doing so, however, and are likely to run into various objects or even other Mynrosians.

Mhoats with this trait form unique plating and a large shell-like protrusion across their back and covering their back limbs. Additionally, they form a set of strange retractable eyes that can extend from the face and look in all directions without the mhoat needing to move its head. The tail extending from the shell on its back is much longer than it appears and can extend out further than the length of its body or be completely hidden away in the curl of the shell.

This trait allows a slinky-like coil formed from goo to appear anywhere on the mhoat's body, even outside of the maximum goo range. When applied to the limbs, two coils may form, but other parts of the body may only form a single coil in total. The function of this coil is much like the toy, with the two halves of the body functioning individually from each other and being pushed and pulled by the momentum created by the coil, which can give them an odd gait or poor control of their movements.

This trait causes plant growth to form on the body with an overgrown appearance covering a noticeable portion of the body, unlike regular plant growth which can form sparingly over the body it instead needs to form in thick clusters. Alongside the plant growth, long drapes of cobweb can also form across the body and the mhoat will have a long broom-like tail.

This trait causes bark-like growths to sprout all over their body across both their shell and goo, but are independent from a mhoat's shell/goo so they aren't held to color restrictions based upon where they grow. These growths grow continuously to the point of affecting a mhoat's mobility and leave behind a bark ring pattern when cut. Small berries or fruit may also grow on the mhoat's body.

This trait allows for trailing pets, although these pets tend to be the common version. This trait can be a pair of pets (2) or it can be many types of pets, or even it can be many of a single type of pet following them.

Alongside this, the mhoat gains a 'soul-bound' pet. This is a free pet MYO. They do need to resemble the mhoat in question and therefore does allow quite a bit of alteration to the said pet. Although they'll always have similar goo patching to their mhoat.

When acquiring this trait, please link in the comments, your 'soul-bound' pet's image.

For minor notes:

• Both pets are apart of the trait and therefore for cap counts, both are needed for fullbody rewards.
• Both pets do in fact count as a pet bonus for cap counts.
• The trailing pets are not true pets; pets that cannot or do not usually walk will simply fly along with the characters. This does include swimming pets.
• The soul-bound pet is stuck to the character and cannot be moved to another character, even if the trait is removed. They must be traded alongside the mhoat they are 'soul-bound' to.
• The soul-bound pet can be voided, but voiding it automatically voids the trait as well, leaving the ML entry outdated until an update is done.

Regarding Redesigns:

• You cannot redesign the soul-bound pet with a Groomer's Kit, even if the trait is removed from the character.
• The soul-bound pet will need a redesign if the character with the trait gets a major update. (This redesign will not need a Groomer's Kit.)
• The soul-bound pet does not need a redesign if the character no longer has the trait or it's a minor update.
• You may update the pet as long as it resembles their mhoat.

With that, if this trait is removed, the 'soul-bound' pet will however stay, and does not count as needed for the fullbody cap count. They do however still count towards the pet bonus.

Mhoats with this trait form a permanent extra set of limbs that cannot be retracted. Only the hooves/hands are goo while the rest is plated. This allows the mhoat to have a full set of 8 limbs.

They also floof up like Winter Coat when having extreme emotions. Alongside this coat, they gain an aura that seems to dissipate upwards.

The aura shifts colors based on their feelings. This aura has been recorded to always outline the mhoat, no matter who sees it.

This trait allows for a sash or a long cloth to float around the mhoat's body. Alongside this when they sing, the notes become visible floating around before slowing disappearing.

It's heard of that emotions can alter the notes, such as surprise can make the notes spike out, or sadness can make them droopy. Although the most common one, are the love songs, where the notes become heart-like.

Mhoats with this trait gains a halo, floating sparkles and an aura. The halo can be angelic text, a round circle or even brightly glowing flowers, it always forms by the head though. The sparkles can be stars or motes, as well. They both however tend to be the same color as the mhoat's aura.

The aura shifts color during different circumstances, the most common are a temperature change, a change in feelings or even from the general surroundings. This aura has been recorded to always outline the mhoat, no matter who sees it.

Mhoats with this trait gains tree bark-like growths and plant growth on their plating. The bark skin can grow small branches and leaves that'll fall off during winter and grow in the spring. The plants that grow can be any type of plants or fungi.

Additionally, fruit-bearing plants can grow small fruits on the body much like they would when growing naturally. They can even be on the bark skin, although it's more fruit-bearing trees.

This trait causes the mhoat's fur to grow longer and a book floats around the mhoat's body. Alongside this, their goo turns into shades of pastel.

Some have tried to trim or cut their fur, only for it to grow back to its new state. Not only that but their fur always seems to be clean with a natural sparkly shine to it.

This trait forms extra goo limbs and patches of goo. They also have a form of color shift applied to them, similar to the Color Shift Goo trait. These limbs can be retracted and hidden.

These limbs do not have to be a pair of limbs and and can be placed freely.

This trait turns the all of the mhoat's goo into Shade Goo, although the eyes always seem to be odd colored eyes. Making them unmatching to the rest, giving them an almost alluring look.

The most particular thing about the shade goo these mhoats have is that they leave shadowy footsteps behind. Alongside the fact that their hooves are covered in a fine black mist making their movements hard to see.

*This trait applies Shade Goo and Odd Color Eyes by default.

This trait allows for a scroll or books to float around the mhoat's body. The scrolls and books tend to leave off sparkles or a flowy aura when they move about the mhoat.

The mhoat also gains white sightless eyes, so many see them as an actual Oracle who can see the future, due to an old superstition.

This trait always comes with Oracle Eyes by default, overwriting other eye traits.

Mhoats with this trait gains technological growths and has the ability to spit out acid.
