#they're giving slug/plant vibes

Furry (FaaF) AU species thoughts:

Pale King is a wyrm that took on a more anthropomorphic mammalian traits, but still retains his overall dragon look. So he basically looks like a fluffy drake. Still has monarch wings but they're a spell now instead of a boody part, and resemble classic dragon wings.

White Lady is a nature goddess that vaguely resembles something of a mix of a rabbit (or hare) and a deer. Still at least partly a plant though

Grimm is a mix of a jackal, bat and other various scavengers. Possibly some reptilian or dragon traits. Nightmare King Grimm is the same thing but a patchwork plush

Unn is still a slug but this time an anthropomorphic one. At least partly made of slime and has a see-through stomach filled with acid.

The Radiance is a mix of an owl and a dragon or perhaps a basilisk?

The moths in general are owls. They have just 4 limbs and use their wings like hands, but The Radiance has 6 limbs with separate wings and hands

Herrah, and by extension deepnestians, are an original species I made up for this. Imagine a cross between a star-nosed mole, wolverine, and a wolf with 8 small eyes and long whiskers who's also an obligatory carnivore, and you get her.

Hornet is just a mix of this and a dragon. Long shaggy fur and mane, big ass ears, long whiskers, possibly horns, and a star-shaped nose too

Monomon is a jellyfish with mechanical enhancements to help her live on land. Her face is a visor

Lurien is some sort of colourful birth, possibly a peacock or a parrot

I'm blanking out on the great five. I'm thinking a pig for Ogrim, maybe some sort of bovine for Hegemol?

Shade Lord is like a giant sea dragon/serpent, with plenty of fish traits, think deep sea creature. The vessels are basically a mix of this + PK and WL, so their traits are all over the place. The shades become more serpentine and fish-looking.

Flower/PV mostly has traits from PK and WL, save for their dark colouring, which they get from SL. They mostly resemble a cross between a deer and a dragon with big ears. Still carnivorous/omnivorous so they have sharp fangs. Got feet covered in scales and hooves, though sharper and almost looking like talons, especially ones on their hands.

Still unsure about Ghost, but I'm probably gonna go with more rabbit and deer look for them than dragon. And maybe they'll look more like a sea serpent after taking over the mantle of the Shade Lord.

Lummis is a capybara, his parents are beavers. Still unsure about Petunia, but they give me fox or some sort of mustelidae vibes. Possibly a hybrid also, since originally they're a mix of two different mining bee species (pantaloon × tawny mining bee)

The buggycule's children are gonna look so fucking wild, man...

Dunno about Adamas (PK's mother), might keep her fluffy because she lives in cold, harsh mountains but she'd probably have far more dragon traits than her son

For any of your OTPs. During the crushing stage, how did they try to get each other's attention? If they get married, what would their wedding be like? (Location, food, guests, wedding outfits, etc)

What symbols do you associate with your OTP and why?

What is their home like and how do they decorate it?

What's their cursed couple Halloween costume?

Responding to this with Eli x Azalea:

During the crushing stage, how did they try to get each other's attention?

These two dorks both have a hyperfixation on slugs and slugslinging and it's something they bond over a lot. So they definitely tried to get each other's attention by showboating a bit during their friendly duels and while doing trickshots.

If they get married, what would their wedding be like? (Location, food, guests, wedding outfits, etc)

Their wedding is a small-ish, fairly private affair in shadowclan territory with the members of the Shane gang (plus a couple extra friends & allies) and several shadowclanners present. The wedding itself combines elements of a human wedding and a shadowclan pair-bonding ceremony, so that way they're considered married according to both cultures. I'm picturing soft lighting in a beautiful nature environment at night, lots of flowers. I'm thinking Pronto and Azalea's father (the shadowclan chief AKA shadowdad) would officiate the ceremony. Eli would be wearing the shadowtalker to ensure that the vows can be understood by all present.

What symbols do you associate with your OTP and why?

Stars, fire and shooting stars for Eli (because the Shanes have a star-like emblem, and because Eli's main slug is Burpy, an Infurnus who's all fire powers and such), fireflies, shadows, flowers and leaves for Azalea (because she's from the shadowclan, she's got some glowy elements to her outfit which gives me firefly vibes (also fireflies always make me think of romantic mood lighting and I also find they're kinda cute, and Azalea is adorable), because she's named after a flower, and because she has nature themes in her character already and has a lot of green in her visual design)

What is their home like and how do they decorate it?

Their home is the Shane hideout and it's shared by the rest of the Shane gang, so they aren't wholly monopolizing the decoration. That said, I think their shared room would include some personal touches of theirs. I'm thinking a potted plant or two, some posters of stuff Eli likes, a few photos of their loved ones, extra beds and stuff for their slugs, a couple of trinkets from Azalea's "human stuff" collection, etc. I don't think it's super neat since neither of them are neatfreaks, but I don't think either Eli or Azalea are messy either.

What's their cursed couple Halloween costume?

I don't think I can come up with cursed couple Halloween costumes, so I'll just go with the closest I can get to cursed: they'd dress up as their main slugs. Like, think kigurumis that are designed to resemble their main slugs, Burpy (an infurnus) and Lily (a negashade). I feel like that's really wholesome but also silly, so it's definitely something they'd do if they could.

* * * turn offs/severe dislikes (like, I dunno, slugs because they're slimy)

Sorry, got dragged to a family dinner so I could respond right away.

Three stars so I’ll do my three main characters from Story with Gods, if that’s alright.

Dani really hates flying and hospitals, both have always just made her super uncomfortable. The lights, colours, smells, and general vibe of hospitals makes her uptight and now that she has the ability to see ghosts (and ghosts love to seek her out), places that are full of death like hospitals suck even more. In terms of flying, she would just rather keep her feet on solid ground.

Olivia hates being stuck inside for too long and she dislikes cities. She’s a huge nature person being descended from a goddess of the forest and all, but even just her personality means she doesn’t like being stuck in one place for too long. (Also she dislikes slugs and similar critters because they would always eat her plants)

Sophia is even worse for hating being stuck in one place, but something she hates more would be people who refuse to think for themselves. And earwigs, she despises earwigs and similar nasty crawling bugs, she thinks they’re just gross.

Send me stars and I’ll give you a fact about my OCs for every star you send!
