Description Species guide for CLoud Shuis. This is a closed species, and still under development. Lots of more info will be added with time, enjoy this for now


(following information copied from a previous devation regarding shuis)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
some basic stuff about shuis:

These are the three most common species of Shui. Shui as a word is used to describe all the spirit-like creatures that are the dominant beings in their world.

There are more Shui species, but they are rare and will be talked about seperately, as their features differ from those of common Shuis.

Shui don't have noses. They also don't have any ears. They can walk, swim and float around in the air ( a kind of air-swimming. They generally use the latter to mave around, unless they are very tired. They always have some kind of scarve-like piece of cloth somewhere on them.
About the scarves: Each Shui species has their own traditions about scarves, but generally a Shui has lots of them, but only wears one at a time. Not wearing a scarf is like going outside naked for shui. They just don't do it, unless they are somehow forced to, or if they're crazy. Shui think old-looking, worn-out scarves are beautiful. They also get scarves from older shuis as a sign of apreciation, but never vice versa. Young shuis don't gift their elders scarves.
:bullet green: SHui scarves are used to show their status too. A sick Shui must hang a red ring in their scarf or a shui that is of royal blood must have some kinf of gem on it. Gold is used to show a shui who's done something exceptionally good or brave, and more, which will be analyzed later.
Shui can be male, female or hermaphrodites. Females are about 30% of the shui population, males 50%, hermaprodites are 15% and there's a 5% that doesn't have any reproductive organs, usually refered to as ghosts, due to their strange nature.




  Some informationon this particular species:
-No nose or mouth
-Horns are uncommon
-The face is usually white or a very light shade of some colour. It's very rarely another colour.
-Markings on face can be any colour, any shape.
-Mouth exists on rare occasions, if the Shui is blessed with singing abilities.
-Common colours are blue, yellow, orange, red or purple. Common markings are usually smooth and light (facial markings excluded) and they rarely have stripes.
-Their two tiny "tusks" at the side of their faces can vary in length and shape (examples will be on ref sheet). They are soft and a bit flexible.
-Cloud Shuis don't have fur.
-Their tails can have any shape, but very short tails may mean ploblems with navigating. Very big tails are also uncommon, while double or epic-sized tails are considered signs of connection to the gods, are exptremely rare and admired by other shuis.
-Cloud Shuis live in the clouds, or on top of very high mountains. They have floating cities, wich are very complex and huge. They are pretty secretive, and rarely allow other shuis into their cities. Each city is a kingdom by itself.
-Cloud shius tie their scarves on their Headholes. Headholes are a natural mutation of cloud shuis.
-Clothing is usally light cloaks and robes. They sometimes wear gloves and jwellery, but they dislike shoes.
-They are very good warriors and like machinery more than all the other shuis. In general, they have the most technologically advanced stuff.
-They are not as good with magic.

OH OH OH
THESE
NEW FAVORITE SPECIES. EVER.


These are really clever & REALLY adorable! And they leave a lot open for people to do what they want with them and I really like that. I really adore these, they're precious! I know I bug you all the time about your octapi but are you making a set of these anytime soon? I'd really love to purchase one ;0 Or are you going to be selling any MYO slots or anything like that 'cos I have a really cute idea for one & I'm eager to see the others that you're going to draw as well.

First of all, thank you very much!
Secondly, I will make adoptables once I have all Shui types' refs done. I can't say for sure when this will happen, but I hope to get my to-do list empty by the end of the week, then there will be new butfurrs and octappis and I'll start working on the Shuis too.
