Welcome to the breed guide, where information on the current breeds within Everchange can be found! There are a few terms you'll need to know going forward:
“Breed:” indicates a unique race of pony with its own individualizing features.
“Type:” indicates the general zone/environment a pony can live in: terrestrial, amphibious, aquatic, and aerial!
“Trait:” is defined as a ‘physical feature a pony has or can have.’
“Exclusive trait:” this is what makes a pony its breed. Every breed has at least one exclusive trait that no other breed can have, and having it in any form - template or curiosity - makes a pony at least partially that breed (hybrid). Examples include the mouth tail for ghoulies or the singular forehead horn for unicorns.
“Shared trait” is a feature that a breed has that others can have without making them a mystic. Examples would be dragons’ horns or kitsunes having a multi-tailed trait. Restrictions listed under any particular breed (such as kitsunes having at least two tails) apply only to that breed.
“Curiosity/Mystic:” any trait on a pony that isn’t a template is considered a curiosity, and ponies with those are called mystics. If a curiosity is of an exclusive trait, it makes that pony that breed or a hybrid, and if it is a shared or unlisted trait, then it’s a simple curiousity. A long, spiraling, curved unicorn horn is always a unicorn trait, even if placed on a mer base or kitsune base etc, whereas multiple dragon tails on a dragon is just a curiosity.
