What are traits?
Traits are features that your Noctarion possess. Most of the time, these traits are visual. But they can also be “invisible” features, like a magic ability for example. The traits can be seen on each Noctarions masterlist entry! They have colorful dots in front of them. Here are all trait colors explained:
Regular traits:
Common
Uncommon
Rare
Royal
Legendary

Cosmic
From top to bottom is the “difficulty” shown of the trait. The common trait is the easiest to get, the cosmic ones are more difficult. Noctarions with these kinds of traits are harder to find. The higher the rarity, the more unlikely it is for a Noctarion to be born with that trait. But even if a Noctarion isn´t born with a certain trait, they can obtain them via items!
Traits of these rarities are aviable via all shops, Adoptables, events and customs.

Blessed and cursed traits:
A Noctarion isn´t born with these kinds of traits. The cursed and blessed traits have the same origin, a mutation caused by a mutagen or a “gift” by a very Powerful Noctarion (or other entity).
Curse

Blessed

Its called a “blessing” when the overall effect is positive. A third eye which grants protective powers for example. While twisted horns (Horns that grow back into the skull) is a “curse”, since its considered a negative one. While Noctarions have classified these traits in two categories, it’s a rather subjective topic. Some Noctarions for example, love their cursed trait and consider it not a curse at all.

⟡ - type traits:
Rather mysterious traits such as magic. The effect can range from something small to a really powerfull physical appearance.

Unknown
Forbidden artifacts such as a stellular weapon falls also under that trait. These traits often have devastating effects to the Noctarion and can also be fatal in some cases. There is no cure for some of the caused effects.

Removing or adding traits
You can remove or add traits to the Noctarion. You need to comment under your Noctarions masterlist entry! While you can always remove/add traits, be aware that the masterlist image MUST always reflect the traits. For example: You cannot have your Noctarion have the long ear trait if the long ears aren´t shown on the image.
Removing a trait:
If a trait is removed that was on the original design, the trait will be marked as Trait name (Removed) This way the design can always be reverted to the original. If a trait is removed that had an (added) behind it, the trait will be completely removed and can only be re-obtained by an item. While under normal circumstances a trait can always be removed, there may be exceptions when the re-design is unrecognizable compared to the OG design.
Adding a trait:
To add a trait to your Noctarion you need an item. You can obtain items in shops/even or other methods. Certain traits can also be obtained directly from an event. If the trait is shown physically, you need to also provide a new masterlist image that shows how the added trait. If a trait is added, it will show as Trait name (Added) on the masterlist. Traits can stack and sometimes combined to create a unique visual effect. There is no limit to how many traits a Noctarion can have.
NOT OFFICIAL/Not allowed Traits
These traits are currently NOT allowed within the species.
- No liptooth
- No glitter on body
- Weathers on body (except wings)
- No horns
- Unrealistic size (microscopic) (galactic)
Outdated traits
Traits with an (Outdated) before them are added by error/mistake or just outdated. They made their way on the Masterlist and aren´t in favor of the official lore. While you can still use the design of course, the trait doesn´t grant the design a different subspecies/special power. For example, if a daydream got a nightmare specific trait by error, they can´t be used as a nightmare or as a hybrid. Lore wise, these Noctarions used heavy body modification to mimic another subspecies or gained these visual traits by other methods.
They were never born with them.
When re-designed, these traits cannot be used again!

Heritage traits
Heritage traits are traits that come from the subspecies of the Noctarion. Each subspecies has mandatory traits that MUST be visible in the design and optional Heritage traits. Each of these traits and can be preview on the subspecies page.
