Traits
Simple Knot (Staple)
Simple knots are tied in an overhand knot, basic bowtie, or ribboned knot. Simple knots/bows should be no larger than depicted in the size reference posted below, and for ribboned knots, the "tails" should be no longer than the size of the bow itself.
Hidden Bandana (Staple)
Hidden Bandanas are bandanas that are hidden under fur. The bandana still exists, but the knot may be the only thing showing!
- Main Bandana Addition: This trait must exist alongside Small Bandana or Large Bandana.
- Modifiers Available: Any knot trait modifiers.
Small Bandana (Staple)
Small bandanas are generally no larger than the soosh's head, give or take (there's a bit of leeway here, just don't go too crazy!), and can be worn on just about any part of the body--usually around the neck.
Trait can be stacked with any other bandana trait except large bandana and obi bandana (unless the soosh has more than one bandana).
Small bandanas are worn in many different styles--check the masterlist for more examples and inspiration!
*Note that bandana traits must ALWAYS be stacked with a knot trait!
Multiple Knots (Gourmet)
This trait is for multiple knots on the same bandana! If a bandana is tied in more than one place, it has multiple knots.
Trailing Bandana (Gourmet)
Trailing Bandanas are bandanas that have an unusually long, ribbon-like length. Many of these are wrapped around parts of the Soosh's body, such as the torso, across tails, and so forth.
- Main Bandana Trait: This trait must replace Small Bandana or Large Bandana.
- Modifiers Available: Any bandana trait modifiers.
Bandana Pouch (Gourmet)
A pouch attached to a bandana. The pouch can be used to carry items.
Note that this trait is considered to be a modifier, and must be stacked with either small bandana or large bandana. This trait can be stacked with any other bandana trait except accessory bandana (meaning: you cannot attach a pouch onto an accessory bandana). These traits can, however, be used at on the same soosh when stacked with multiple bandanas.
Merged traits: traveler's bandana
Accessory Bandana (Gourmet)
Accessory bandanas are tied to accessories worn by the soosh (such as on a hat or cloak). As the bandana is magically bonded onto the soosh's body, this means that the accessory it's tied to is as well, so neither the bandana or the accessory it's tied to can be removed!
Decorated Bandana (Gourmet)
Decorated bandanas have small accessories or flourishes sewn, embroidered, or pinned into the fabric, or tied into the knot. This could include buttons, charms, lace or fur trim, a fringe, and more! Only one decoration per trait. (ie. if you wanted a bandana with lace and a charm, this would be two separate traits)
Multiple Bandanas (Gourmet)
Soosh with multiple bandanas can have up to three! This trait can be added again to add up to 3 more, if desired. When stacked with other bandana traits, they can be applied to all bandanas or just one (it is not necessary to add more than one bandana trait if you'd like to apply it to more than one).
Multi-Color Bandana (Gourmet)
Multi-color bandanas are those that, rather than one solid color, are colored in two-three colors across their length. Colors can be a gradient or solid blocks of color as long as they do not resemble a pattern (ie. stripes).
*Note: when this trait is stacked with multiple bandanas, it can appear in one of three ways:
1.) multi-color on one bandana only,
2.) multi-color on more than one bandana in the same colors,
3.) multi-color on more than one bandana in different colors. It is not necessary to have more than one multi-color trait to apply this trait to more than one bandana.
Trailing Ribbons (Gourmet)
Trailing ribbons are knot "tails" that are longer than the size of the bow/knot itself. Trailing ribbons can be as long as twice the full length of the soosh's body (this is pretty flexible, but they should generally not be much longer than this!)
Note that this trait must be stacked with another knot trait! Trailing ribbons are considered to be a modifier to a soosh's knot, and not the knot itself (for example, a soosh with a bow that has very long tails should be listed with two traits for its knot: simple knot and trailing ribbons).
Complex Knot (Gourmet)
A complex knot is anything not classified as a simple knot. There are lots of ways to tie things, so get creative!
Large Bandana (Gourmet)
Large bandanas have no definitive maximum size limit, and can be worn on any part of the body--usually around the neck.
This trait can be stacked with any other bandana trait except small bandana and obi bandana (unless the soosh has more than one bandana). Large bandanas are worn in many different styles--check the masterlist for more examples and inspiration!
*Note that bandana traits must ALWAYS be stacked with a knot trait!
Enchanted Bell (Companion)
The Enchanted Bell is the sure-fire way to know that a soosh is indeed a Sushi Cat! This trait can only be applied if you apply an item of the same name to your Sushi Dog.
Sheer Bandana (Seasonal)
Spring Seasonal Trait
You can see parts of the body through the bandana, and the colors for these tend to be very light.
Due to their transparency, they will sometimes look to have multiple colors due to the blending of anything underneath.
How to Obtain:
Shaped Swirls (Seasonal)
Summer Seasonal Trait
This trait modifier adjusts the shape of swirls on bandanas.
This allows for a differentiation from the standard round/circular swirls.
The shape must still resemble a swirl!
How to Obtain:
Patterned Bandana (Seasonal)
Winter Seasonal Trait
It must be shades of the same color unless you stack it with the Multi-Color Bandana trait.
For example: you can make a polka-dot bandana with lighter or darker dots than the base bandana color just using this item.
If you want the dots to be a different color entirely, you would also need to use Multi-Color Bandana trait!
How to Obtain:
Confetti Swirls (Specialty)
Confetti Swirls are fun, multi-colored, solid swirls with speckles scattered throughout the bandana! You can use up to 4 unique colors, and it must have a white or light-colored base bandana so that the swirls are visible!
How to Obtain:
Dark Swirls (Vampsoosh)
Mythical - Vampsoosh trait
AKA gray swirls. The soosh's bandana is "tainted," and has gray swirls rather than the normal pure white. Dark swirls can be any shade of gray or black.
