Special Note: Jammyx are a humanoid species and cannot be feral. Feral Jammyx are illegal and will not be accepted.

 

Basics

All Jammyx have 5 mandatory trait categories:

Each Jammyx must have at least one trait from each category listed above to be considered legal!


The appearance of these traits are determined a Jammyx’s rarity.
A Jammyx’s rarity is based on the rarity of their MYO. Jammyx’s may use traits on or below the level of their MYO. For example, a Rare Jammyx may use Rare, Unusual and Standard traits in their design. Please reference the Trait Index to easily view the rarity of each trait!

To increase diversity, traits from the Antennae and Tail categorey, unless stated otherwise, may be combined with another to create unique looks!

Trait Combo Examples
Combined traits cannot resemble another, already-existing trait nor should they attempt to get around using them!

Good!

Category Specifics

This section will contain more specific details on the individual trait categories! Not as mandatory as a read above, but still highly recommended!


Antennae

"The external sensory organs of the Jammyx are actually mobile! Who would've guessed?"

When designing a Jammyx, be aware that you may add up to four pairs of antennae without mutations! These antennae may be of different kinds as long as you have the rarity/items for it!
Additionally, antennae should always have some cartilage. The bigger the antennae is, the more supportive cartilage that should be present.

Core

"Don’t let the cytoplasm fool you - this little shape is the actual Jammyx!"

Unlike antennae, multiple core traits cannot be combined to add more to a Jammyx or to create a new shape. Core traits are strict in nature and should closely follow their trait image and description!

Symbiont

"The hungry little mascots of Jammyx! Treat with care!"

Symbiont traits themselves are flexible as long as the creature fits into the category! However, be aware non-mutated symbionts should resemble real creatures. Reptilian symbionts do not include dragons but Fictional Symbionts does!
Symbionts should also stay within the lower abdominal area. They cannot spread to other limbs nor can they occupy the chest.
Similarly to cores, multiple symbiont traits cannot be combined to add more to a Jammyx or to cross-over species.

Tail

"Oh these? They’re for balance (they also just look cool)."

Tails do not have to look exactly like their trait image! The main tail traits (short, big and oversized) simply trait the length of the tail. A tail's specific appearance can vary wildly.
While multiple tail traits cannot be combined to add more to a Jammyx, some traits can be used to add additional attributes! Spiky Tail can be added to an Oversized Tail to place spikes along its length!
Like antennae, tails should always have some cartilage. The longer the tail is, the more supportive cartilage that should be present.

Cytoplasm

"mmm textured jelly"

Cytoplasm traits exist to describe the texture of your Jammyx! Multiple may be combined if multiple textures are present.

Robotics

"The future is now!"

Robotic augmentation is not uncommon here! Depending on the rarity of your Jammyx, you may choose to add varying amounts of robotics without any extra mutations!
The description of each trait lists its parameters, so read carefully!

Mutations

"Customize yourself today!"

Mutations are the optional older brother of the basic traits! With the use of items, you can add special attributes to your Jammyx!
Closely read the descriptions of each mutation trait when adding them to a design as each one is wildly different!
