Traits
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!
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.
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!
Mismatched Cheek Color (Gourmet)
Soosh with mismatched cheek pouch colors have a different solid color on each. The cheek pouch colors cannot be patterned or gradiented unless stacked with Fancy Cheeks.
Mismatched Cheek Shape (Gourmet)
Soosh with mismatched cheek shapes have one shape on one cheek, and another shape on the other. This trait MUST be stacked with Shaped Cheeks, however, only one is necessary for both cheek pouches (for example, if you wanted to do one heart and star, you would not need one shaped cheek pouch trait for each shape--just the one is sufficient!).
Shaped Cheeks (Gourmet)
Shaped cheek pouches can be just about any shape imaginable! Unless this trait is stacked with Mismatched Cheek Shape, both cheek pouches should be mirrored shapes.
Sentient Tail (Gourmet)
AKA living tail. This tail is actually a creature companion that has merged with its soosh's body, and now exists as its soosh's tail. The sentient tail has its own thoughts and personality.
Required stacking trait: creature companions
Chimera Tail (Gourmet)
The tail appears to belong another species of animal entirely. Chimera tails can be based on just about any non-mammalian animal--sea creatures, insects, reptiles, even birds!
Impish Tail (Gourmet)
Tail is thin, with short fur (or hairless) and tipped. The tip can be a tuft of a fur (for a "lion tail") or shaped (for a "devil tail").
Object Tail (Gourmet)
The tail, rather than being "natural," is an inanimate object instead. If the object is a food, this trait is sometimes referred to as "edible tail;" if the object is a plant, it may be referred to as a "floral tail." Object tails generally function as the object should (for example, a plant tail could wither and grow flowers/fruit).
The object itself can theoretically be anything, however, if the object is living in some way (this includes artificial intelligence), the tail should be classified as a sentient tail instead.
Large Ears (Gourmet)
Large ears are more than one half the height of the head proportionally, and allow slightly more flexibility as far as shape goes compared to other ear traits. Large ears should be no longer than the full height of the head.
This trait can be stacked with any other ear traits except mega lop ears.
Tufted Ear Tips (Gourmet)
AKA lynx tufts or lynx ears. Ears with tufted ear tips have a longer tuft of fur at the tips of the ears compared to the fur on the rest of the ear.
This trait is stacked with any other ear traits (ex. for "lynx ears" combine tufted ear tips with perky ears).
