Traits

PRIMARY GENES

Avilet traits are called primary genes, primary genes determine what kind of bodily traits an Avilet has. Primary genes cannot change the base anatomy of an Avilet and can only add things onto it. Primary traits always have to be derived from real animals unless your Avilet is a crossbreed, different rules apply to crossbreed genes.

Primary traits allow you to add things like tails, wings, horns, spikes, ears, antennas etc. 

Primary genes don’t apply to an Avilets pelt please don’t obtain primary genes for the purpose of changing your Avilets pelt.

HOW TO APPLY THIS GENE

• You can now apply a bodily trait that can be found on all bird species on earth.
• While the trait needs to be found on a real animal, you do not need to follow its colouration scheme.
• Use this gene only to add onto the Avilets anatomy, not change it.

Purchase a baies luxuriantes from Avilet market 

Chimera gene

The chimera gene changes the limbs an Avilet has by default (Bird legs for cold blooded and paws for warm blooded) to something of the user's choice. The chimera gene can only be obtained through events as a special reward and each chimera trait can change one limb category on an Avilet (example: change bird legs to reptile legs or changing paws to hooves) You can change arms and legs to any animal limb that exists out and this is not affected by the warm blooded and cold blooded parts (for example, cold blooded part of the Avilets body can still have hooves as long as they aren't covered in fur)

Each limb changed equals one chimera gene, chimera genes are given out in pairs of 2.

HOW TO APPLY THIS GENE

• When you apply one chimera gene you can change one of your avilets limbs to be something different from the default paws and bird legs.
• Limbs need to be based on real animal limbs.
• If your Avilet has multiple limbs from a mutation gene you need a chimera gene for each limb still.

Mutation gene

A mutation is a genetic anomaly, there is a select amount of mutations available to the species: Multi limbs, albinism, piebaldism, melanism, bioluminescence, skin transparency. Avilets have a chance to be born with mutations, the amount of mutations varies per Avilet, this means mutations can only be obtained through luck (Avilets can have mutations that are inactive, this means your Avilet doesn’t NEED a showing mutation even if it comes with one) Avilets can’t have more than two mutations

HOW TO APPLY THIS GENE

• Each mutation gene adds one mutation, this means if you pick something like multiple limbs you could add one pair of extra arms, but if you want to also add an extra pair of wings you need another mutation gene.
• Mutation genes overlap with the crossbreed genes due to the fact Chowlings have the same traits but mutation genes are a lot easier to obtain than crossbreed genes.
• Multi limbs, albinism, piebaldism, melanism, bioluminescence and skin transparency are currently the only mutation traits.

WHERE DO I OBTAIN THIS GENE

Obtain it by getting a MYO, MYO's can come with mutation genes when bought.

CROSSBREED GENE

The crossbreed gene is present in Avilets that have a Chowling parent, Its a gene introduced to an Avilet cub by the Chowling parent which allows them to have any of these traits: Chowling traits. Avilets can’t have more than two crossbreed traits. Crossbreeds can be obtained through primarily events.

HOW TO APPLY THIS GENE

• By applying this gene you will get access to a number of fantasy traits that you otherwise cannot use on Avilets.
• When you apply this gene you basically apply the rules of Chowling traits instead of avilet genes.
• Once used, you can either pick a chowling trait from this list or add a unrealistic tail similiar to what chowlings have.

WHERE DO I OBTAIN THIS GENE

Win this gene in special events.

TRAIT

Adding this trait gives your Chowling whiskers, this includes any kind of Whisker not just mammal whiskers (Ex. dragon whiskers and fish whiskers) 

HOW TO APPLY THIS TRAIT

• It must be clear that the trait applied is Whiskers and not something miming another trait like antennae.
• Whiskers can be placed anywhere on the body but are most commonly found on the face.
