Features - Terra are the largest Tourac, intimidating and broad. Their horns seem to resemble gems rather than the usual bone like material, and it isn't too uncommon to find them with stones for paw pads or even growing from them. Along with being the biggest, they're the most elusive. Commonly sporting dark colors in contrast to the bright gems that grow from their bodies, they're hard to spot in the dark, when they're usually around.
Culture - Terra are loners, and don't tend to stick together. Even families will break apart once they're old enough. Having been used by Humans as ecological farming plants to gather stones and resources, their culture heavily surrounds around a lack of trust. The only real reason they escaped was because of their brute force, in which they rammed their way out while the humans were distracted.
When Terra are around other Touracs, they're known to be quite wise and quiet. Some like to call them gentle giants, others think the term traumatized fits their meek and soft approach to others. Some can be quite violent, on the contrary, overly hostile and protective of themselves.
Terra are not seen often due to their homes, as they live underground. Their eyes don't seem to be made for the sun, so they burrowed themselves into caves and created a civilization underneath the surface. Some have left this home in recent years and grown accustomed to the sunlight, but others choose to stay where they are. You do have a chance of running into a Terra, though, if you travel around at night, which is when they come to the surface to do trading, hunt, or anything else necessary.
Supported Values - Wisdom, Seclusion
Negative Values - Rashness, Curiosity

PRIMIS TOURAC IMG N/A
Features - The 'success' of humanitys attempts, often called a Primis! While in Touracs eyes this breed isn't the base of all, it is what the humans tried to achieve, and, at the end of the day, what all other breeds of Touracs boil down to when you really look at it. Their size differs vastly from case to case, some being as short as a human child and others being taller than horses. They are known for their dog like physique while having retractable claws, a dragon like nose, and, of course, the scales on our legs! Most other Tourac breeds will have Primis features, but with key differences to scales, horns, and fur. They do, though, occasionally have longer fur, or smaller horns! Mutations aren't too uncommon in creatures like Primis Touracs.
Culture - Primis Touracs were the birth of the species fight for freedom. Had humanity never made the animal they wanted, they likely wouldn't have ever gotten released to the public and given a chance for freedom. That considered, they were not the leaders of the revolution. At least, not alone. Actually, they mostly made of the front lines or back up force! Extremely loyal with a strong connection to family and purpose, but not much good in the leader department.
They have a strong sense of morality, and are great at taking a hit. Nothing seems to slow these guys down, as they strive to be a strong shield for their community. A lot of them would spend most their lives helping others and lifting up their family, even over themselves.
While their culture strongly values heroism and protection, they lack at emotional connection. In the past, many young Touracs of traditional homes were taught that their weakness was in their need for assistance. They were the start of the rebellion, they had to protect the rest with all their might. So, while some older Touracs rebel against the idea of their cultures mixing and changing, the young are excited for a new beginning where they can express themselves.
Supported Values - Family, Strength, Heroism.
Negative Values - Emotions, Vulnerability, Arts of most kind.

FAUNA TOURAC
Features - The Fauna Tourac, often referred to as 'Fauns', are much like the Primis. Like all breeds, they share the horns of the Primis, and scales, but their animal features vary greatly. While Primis resemble dogs, Fauna can have the features of any animal! A bird or a horse, anything is possible! They have what's considered the greatest difference between Touracs while still being the same breed. They can be as small as a cat or even bigger than the largest Primis. It all truly depends on what type of DNA the humans put too much of, or what breeds their parents were. They tend to stick closer to the natural coloring of the animal they resemble, or, animals, but it isn't uncommon still for them to be colors with odd designs and colors like other breeds.
Culture - Primis culture, like their looks, truly depends on the animal they are. They were known to share the culture of that species, meaning they have a lot of different roles in society. Some were skilled at building, some had strong family ties, and others, well, others felt a connection to simply.. being left alone. Fauna are by far the most diverse of the breeds, and that's all that truly connects them. Most take pride in their individuality and shun the idea of conforming. They were the breed that proposed the idea of a rebellion against humans, desperate to escape the chains that tied them all together in one pile. Their uniqueness is truly what defines them, ironic as that is.
When Tourac breeds started intermingling more, they were usually the ones to put up the most of a fight. They didn't want to go back to the life of a society, forced into a mold! Though, now, their culture celebrates technology and their togetherness the most! The ability to make art and find new passions has given them more freedom to be themselves and express it.
Supported Values - Individuality, differs from animal to animal.
Negative Values - Differs from animal to animal.

FLORA TOURAC
Features - Flora Touracs are one of the smaller breeds, considered more fragile than most. They are known for their usually distinct earth tones and the plants that seem to sprout from them. Some rare Floras even have wood for horns or growing from them. Their paws usually have more distinct and rough padding and claws, to help them traverse through nature with ease. While they may be dainty, their physique is great for moving around quick and weaving through enemies. Getting in a fight with one wouldn't be the best of ideas, in most Touracs opinions. it's most common to see a Flora with vines and flowers, but, as mentioned, wood and plants green plants, or ones native to the water, aren't too uncommon.
Culture - Floras have a long history of being cunning and intelligent. During the escape, they were the ones sneaking around and gathering information! Often reserved and known to play pranks on those that dare come near in hopes of getting them to leave.
They strongly connect to plants and nature, as one might expect, and are also known to be strongly opposed to the rise of technology within the Touracs home. As the ones who saw up close what human tech was, and what it was used for, they fear the same will happen to their kind.
They were also the ones whom suggested the Tourac breeds stay apart, for better or worse. They couldn't stand the other breeds upon their escape. Far too violent, and destructive. They'd much rather stay far away in their forests, all while making sure that the others don't gang up together to cause some real damage.
Supported Values - Isolation, Magic Prowess, Trickery.
Negative Values - Violence, Courage.
