what is a wicker? Unlike their human neighbors, The wickerbeast are a reptilian troll-like creature that lives in the world of Osova. They come in a wide variety of colors, sizes, genders, and subtypes. This page will guide as a starting point to help you create your wickerbeast effectively and participate in the large world of Osova! All images below are to be used for reference purposes only. basic body structures Skeleton The skeleton of a wickerbeast is incredibly dense in order to support their large mass. Overall, the skeleton can weigh 20% of a wicker's weight. This can ensure heavy impact damage to an enemy if a wicker charges. To counter this, the skeletal system is comprised mainly of compact bone. The jagged structure of their mouth allows for a high pressure force and extra grip. Once a wicker's jaw has a hold of something it will lock into place which is bad news for any prey a wicker may catch hold of. As they go through old age, are susceptible to things such as arthritis and hip dysplasia more so the King sub-typing due to having such a massive body. Blood System Wickerbeasts have a four chambered heart like humans do. The heart takes in deoxygenated blood from the body, sends it to the lungs to become oxygenated, the blood comes back to the heart, where it will then be pumped to the rest of the body. Wicker blood will match the eye color. If the eye is a gradient, it is one or the other color. Muscular System & Health Wickerbeasts are essentially walking tanks with the musculature to match the title. Their strong thighs act as a powerhouse of energy in their body. Combining this with their sturdy hind-legs and they have the capability of producing long running strides (up to 25-35 mph) for maximum impact along with great leaps. The tail is one long, thick muscle in itself which is used as both a weapon and to keep their balance when charging. The tail enables very abrupt acute turns in combat and travel. Weapon wise, wickers will use their tail as whip or club to throw their whole body into motion. The end result of the opponent can be paralysis or even death depending on how hard the hit was. Wickerbeast limbs are just as powerful. Their thighs enable them to master heavy weaponry such as axes. It also allows them to travel long distances and work much longer than the average human could. Disease A hereditary disease unique to wickerbeasts is known as Sphinx Syndrome. This disease is where a wickerbeast will be born hairless and deaf. Sphinx Syndrome wickers can be born with horns but the horns are typically small or will break easily. The appearance of one with sphinx is that of pale, wrinkled skin. If a wicker manages to make it to adulthood with this disease it will require additional aid for their quality of life. Sphinx syndrome wickers will benefit to have hearing aides, heavy duty armor and weaponry, and communicate via sign language. These wickers are able to have young, but the chances of one being born with the disease increases by 25%. Berserker's Disease is one while unique to wickerbeasts. The disease develops as a result of years of malnutrition from famine-like conditions. Due to a wicker beast's headstrong nature, Berserker's Disease can exacerbate this into constant aggression accompanied with: poor cognitive skills, mania, and loss of sleep. Even with proper nutrition into later years, enough internal damage has caused permanent scarring to the brain and will continue to have the disease. Beserker's Disease turns hereditary when a pregnant female is involved. Due to lack of nutrition from the mother, there will arise a possibility of the egg being underdeveloped. As a result, the hatchling that is born may have their brain damaged. The hatchling will display physical traits of being underweight or smaller than the average size of their sub type. a wicker's are pupil-less! The appearance of Wicker eyes varies between single colors and gradient hues. The species retain relatively good eyesight despite lacking an iris. The eye is mostly one big pupil to allow a greater amount of light to enter the eye. This allows the creatures to see in UV light and process the regular three channels of color. At night, eyes also exhibit retro reflection (reflected light in dim areas) or in some cases glow in the dark. Many wicker parents seek moderately lit areas to give birth due to their sensitive eyes at birth. This action minimizes their risk of accidental blindness. In priority of senses, the sense of smell and hearing still are actively the most relied on for them. approvable eyes rEJECTED eyes Eyes should have no shapes or pupils. They can have very small shaped highlights (Must be a lighter color like white). THE CLAWS Wicker claws are some essential tools for many things like work, foraging, brawling, and even artwork. The claws on the hands are the actual fingers of wickerbeast. The claws have a small bone piece and a nerve ending. These claw bones are covered by a sheath of keratin. Wicker claws can bend to hold objects. Wicker claws grow until adulthood and then do not grow anymore. The tips of the claws are able to be shaved and even be sharpened. Claw painting is a lovely practice done during court seasons for a mate. Claws might have little designs or patterns painted on them during that time. A wicker's jagged jaw is one of the signature traits of the species. This jaw allows for a vice grip over prey as it can lock on. If truly motivated in a life-or-death scenario or hunting scenario, a wicker will not let go til they succeed with the outcome. The insides of a wicker's mouth is a slightly acidic saliva that can break down food as it goes down the throat. It has a numbing sensation to the prey. The tongue can be forked (hereditary) or normally pointed at the tip. Wicker teeth and jagged jaw points are incredibly sharp. The teeth of a wicker are serrated at the back edge like a shark's teeth would be. Wickers make alligator-like rumbles most times but can range to clicking sounds like a bird. They like to mimic sounds in almost a corvid-like manner. reproduction & life when a mommy & daddy love each other- Don't worry, we'll spare you the birds and the bees talk. That's for your parents - not us! However, jokes aside, wickers still have to reproduce in the big world of Osova to make the world go round. WHAT DOES A WICKER EGG LOOK LIKE? In the first and second images above, these are examples of land dwelling wicker eggs. A wicker egg will be generally a light color of your choosing with darker speckles casted over the shell. The third image of the green egg is an example of swamp and pelagic eggs. These eggs are see through and have a jelly-like texture. Swamps lay them in shallow non-moving bodies of water while pelagics lay them amongst clusters of coral and under-sea plant life. Generally, the subtypes are sometimes able to be told by the egg sizes themselves however it is not the most accurate way. That big egg might in fact be a 7-9 pound rogue. Who knows? INCUBATION PERIODS Mainland and swamp wickerbeasts also differ in how they have their young. The two classes have separate gestation periods: mainland being three to four weeks with swamp being typically two weeks. A healthy mainland wicker will normally produce 5-6 eggs for their clutch while a swamp wickerbeast has 2-5 at a time. A wicker egg will take 14-40 days to hatch. Any subtype can breed with another subtype. The offspring would not be a hybrid - like a king/swamp offspring for example would either be a king or a swamp in the egg. Not a mix of them. lifespan A wicker can reach anywhere between 150-200 years of age, sometimes a little more. Wickers do not age like humans do. Usually, the beginning of a wickerbeast's life is fast in growth and the rest of its life is very slow aging. A wickerbeast's childhood is from ages 1-4 years old. Their teenage life is from 5-10 years old. A wickerbeast is a "younger" adult from the ages 10-20, and then after the age of 20 they are considered a mature adult. HORN GROWTH Newborn: Baby nubs, embedded a bit into head. 6 months: Tiny nubs, sprouting from head. 1 year: Slightly larger nubs, sprouting from head. 1 year, 6 months: Horns start taking shape, stop at base of ear. 2 years: Horns still taking shape, stop at mid ear. 2 years, 6 months: Horns generally have taken shape, stop at mid ear if curled ram horns and then start extending towards jaw. 3-4 years: Usually fully grown horns at this point. Longer horns could take 3-6 years to develop depending on the shape (antlers for example would take longer). HORNs Their horns are very similar to how their claws are. These appendages that sprout from the wicker's head all start with a small bone piece that connects to the skull. The rest of the horn however is very hard keratin and can at times be broken. A wickerbeast horn will grow back over 3-6 years. Horns can grow back unless ripped from the base of the growth. Horns are solid colors, gradients, and typically matte or a little shiny in texture. They can be segmented shapes as well. Though a wicker will have no more than two sets of horns (4). There should only be two on each side of the head at most and they will be the same shape unless they are a dweller. They do not grow cheek spikes. Wickers can also have small nose horns though they are most common on the dweller subtype. Nose horns are perfectly okay to have along with horn sets. A nose horn counts as a horn. no flights Wickers as a species do not have wings and cannot grow them. There are some exceptions that can however be seen on the hybrid page. The wickers body is typically too heavy to fly which is a reason why wings have never been a feature along with some early species agreements. Aerions however can glide for short periods. However, you can give your wicker accessories. By that, we mean that the wings need to have a harness or strap shown in order to "have wings." Wickers cannot have robotic wings on them as the limitations and features on robotics are still being developed. height chart Wickers have many heights and body types. A wickerbeast can be a stronger body type, a softer body type, or even a petite body type. Heights are similar in that they have a wide range to choose from. These are averages for the species and there can be outliers. If you want a tall rogue, that is more than acceptable. These wickerbeasts can be anywhere from 200 to 4000 pounds. wicker subtypes Aerion The only wickers that can glide. Read More Pelagic Wicker cousins to swamps that live in the ocean.

& traits designing your wicker & wicker heights In canon Osova, wickers come in all sorts of colors and markings. Wickers can even have little glowing markings, eyes, and fleshy bits! Wickers can have any markings you would like them to have with some small exceptions. If basing a wicker off of a copyrighted character - we ask that you do not "skin" the character and attempt to make them unique to you! We also have limitation on "scale" markings so that we can tell certain subtypes apart from hybrids.

Info about the wicker drake subtype DRAKE SUBTYPE The Drake Wickerbeast is a large, heavily built subtype adapted for life in rocky highlands, canyon systems, and volcanic regions. While not related to true dragons, its nickname comes from its broad features, powerful frame, and intimidating silhouette. It can range from a standard wickerbeasts size to a kingbeasts size. They are known to be a little more brash than other Wickerbeasts. HOW TO MAKE a DRAKE Their most recognizable features are their large swept-back horns, rows of sturdy dorsal spines, and long, heavy tails used for balance while navigating steep slopes. Drakes have dense builds with strong legs and broad paws that provide stability on loose rock and uneven ground. They are limited to 3 spikes at the top of the tail, 2 large spikes at the base of the tail, and two spikes at their heels and elbows. They always have some kind of horns. Like Swamps, they can optionally have scales on the underside of their tail, but no where else. DRAKE SPECIFICS They tend to be more direct in both behavior and problem-solving than other Wickerbeasts. Where some subtypes might avoid risk or look for alternative paths, Drake Wickerbeasts are more likely to take the most straightforward option, even if it’s the hardest one. This gives them a reputation for being a bit brash, especially in situations that call for caution or finesse. In day-to-day life, they usually take on roles where force or endurance might be needed. They’re commonly involved in maintaining cliffside routes, supporting mining operations in unstable rock with Dwellers, or acting as emergency responders after collapses or volcanic shifts. In smaller communities, they’re often the ones others go to when something needs to be moved, broken down, or held in place under pressure. They work very well with Kingbeasts - however it can quickly become an "ego" contest. Despite their toughness, they do have limits. Dense urban environments can be very uncomfortable due to restricted movement and constant close contact with others. They tend to be practical in how they live, often settling in natural formations like cliffsides, collapsed cave systems, or lava tubes that have cooled and stabilized over time. Dwellers live commonly alongside them in an almost symbiotic relationship. "You protect me, I protect you."

The origins, creators, and staff of the Wickerbeast species. the wickercave Our Origins Wickerbeasts are a furry fandom species, originally brought to life through the creative vision of Daemon_Lady in 2013. The initial Wickerbeast concept emerged from a preliminary sketch by Daemon in 2013. In late 2014, two additional Wickerbeast designs were developed. Currently, the species is an integration of Daemon_Lady's foundational Wickerbeast concepts with Pinewarden's own foundational Wickerbeast developments and conceptual work. The project is considered a collaborative effort between the two artists. WickerCave's first steps into the internet were on the first official Facebook group that was established in early 2014. The inaugural administration team comprised Guts, Rune (PineWarden), Hamada, Mavi, and Tombo (Wolpertingerwhite). Current Day On January 5th, 2022, ownership and rights for the Wickerbeast species were officially transferred to PineWarden. All subsequent developments and administrative oversight have been managed by PineWarden and the current administration team. The Wickerbeast Facebook group was archived in August 2025.

I identify as Two-Spirit and otherkin, and I'm deeply involved in running the Wickerbeast species. At heart, I'm an artist. My work is driven by my current interests, so you'll find me exploring everything from character concept art and illustrations to even dabbling in fashion. Drawing furries and wickerbeasts is a vital way for me to express my inner nature and embrace my identity, especially the aspects that resonate with anthropomorphic characters. The Wickerbeast species has been a significant part of my time in the furry fandom. What started as a passion project has evolved into something much more than silly little lizards. It's become a source of love, a sense of home, and represents years of my life. I'm committed to keeping WickerCave going as long as I'm able. 💖 Link Meet The Team Every single person on our staff pours their heart and soul into making WickerCave a fun, welcoming, and safe space for all.

In the world of Osova, there once lived a race of anthropomorphic lizards known as the Wickerbeasts. These creatures were unlike any others, endowed with amazing abilities that gave them control over the very foundation of magic. This power, albeit, was beyond the capacity of the Wickerbeast body to properly manage. Given the special G-quadruplex DNA structure of wickerbeasts, any misuse of their powers could result in a terrible reaction that could even lead to their own death and torturous pain. The Wickerbeasts lived in fear of their own magic, for it was a dangerous gift that could turn on them at any moment of high emotion. That is until they discovered a magical flower known as the Aether Blossom. This delicate white and pink flower had the power to grant immunity to magic but also would slowly take a magical user’s power from them the more it was consumed. The Aether Blossom was consumed by the Wickerbeasts for centuries to aid them, but over time, the side effects of the plant caused them to completely lose their magical abilities. However, they were not discouraged because they discovered that life consisted of much more than just magic. They became more highly intelligent and creative as they pursued other interests such as art, literature, and science. The race started searching for allies on other continents. As the search for alliances began, a group of Wickerbeasts came across a lemur-like creature known as the Etekoi. The two species were initially cautious of each other, but over time, they grew to become allies and friends. The Wickerbeasts learned that the Etekoi were masters of technology and that they had developed incredible devices using a power source called Crystalithium. This power source was harnessed from crystals. One crystal’s lifetime energy span was hundreds of years and there was an abundance of them to harvest through mining. Together, the Wickerbeasts and the Etekoi began experimenting with these devices, creating incredible inventions that could do everything that magic could, and more. They built small airships that could fly through the sky, mechanical constructs to channel Crystalithium, and advanced communication devices that could reach vast distances. And so, the Wickerbeasts and Etekoi continued to explore and invent, creating a world that was both magical and technological. They had found a new way of life, one that was more fulfilling than they could have ever imagined. That was until they came across humans. When the Etekoi and Wickerbeasts first met with the humans, they did so with the hope of establishing friendly relations and sharing the knowledge of the powerful Crystalithium. However, the humans were not interested in sharing, but rather in controlling and exploiting the resource for their own gain. The Etekoi and Wickerbeasts initially tried to reason with the humans, explaining that the power of Crystalithium was a delicate balance that needed to be managed carefully to avoid catastrophic consequences. They emphasized that the crystals were a shared resource, not just for any one species to control. However, the humans were too focused on their own interests and refused to listen to reason. They began to launch attacks on the Etekoi and Wickerbeasts, seeking to take control of the Crystalithium by force. Fighting in cities, city seizures, and general violence began. The Etekoi and Wickerbeasts fought back fiercely, using their knowledge of the land and the power of Crystalithium to their advantage. They were able to hold off the human forces for some time, but eventually realized that they could not win this conflict alone due to the sheer amount of the human population. War was declared. As the war dragged on, it became clear to all involved that the conflict could not continue indefinitely. The fighting had ravaged the land, causing irreparable damage to the delicate ecosystem that allowed the Crystalithium to exist. The Etekoi and Wickerbeasts, who had always known the value of the resource realized that it was their responsibility to protect it. Etekoi and Wickerbeasts reached out to their communities to bear arms, hoping to form a united front against human aggression. They were eventually able to gather a coalition of Etekoi and Wickerbeast citizens who saw the value in preserving the balance of power and protecting the delicate ecosystem of Osova that allowed the Crystalithium to exist in the first place. With this in mind, the Etekoi and Wickerbeasts decided to take action. The species pooled their knowledge of the Crystalithium. The most powerful Etekoi used their combined abilities to create a powerful spell that combined with the power source of Crystalithium. This spell allowed them to tap into the crystals' power, creating a massive explosion of energy that engulfed the battlefield. Many Etekoi, Wickerbeasts, and Humans were lost in the massive explosion. The energy released by the Crystalithium was so immense that it left the survivors horrified. Humans realized that the power of the crystals was far too great for any one species to control after seeing the true power of Crystalithium. With this realization, the humans and magical species came to a truce in order to not have more lives lost. In the end, the humans agreed to a treaty that recognized the shared ownership and management of Crystalithium. The Etekoi and Wickerbeasts agreed to share their knowledge of the powerful resource with the humans, but only on the condition that they work together to protect the balance of power and preserve the delicate ecosystem that allowed the crystals to exist. With this agreement, the conflict was resolved, and a new era of cooperation and understanding began between the anthro species and humans. This peace would not last forever. Authors Note: Etekoi are not open to create yet as their visual guides are still being created. More information might be added to this page. Wickers are still required to have no magic - this is past tense. primal era

species rules These are in general species rules of what is and is not allowed to be done with the content of Wickerbeasts. NSFW CONTENT The creation of content using Etekoi and Wickerbeasts is permissible. However, we strongly advise against creating NSFW content featuring the fera species (such as Oshari and Skitadel), as they are not sentient in a human sense. STORY CANONs It is entirely at your discretion to determine whether your wicker is part of the canon lore that belongs to the world of Osova, or if it is from your own unrelated lore. WICKER LOGO USAGE The usage of the wickerbeast logo in any for-profit scenario, including redistribution as a physical or digital product, is strictly prohibited. If you choose to use our logo, it should only be for personal non-commercial purposes. You may download our logo off of PineWarden's sta.sh. harmful messages and beliefs We respectfully request that all Wickerbeast designs and insignia refrain from being used in any form of harmful messages, including but not limited to messages that promote hate speech or discrimination against a community. As a community, we strive to uphold values of inclusivity and positivity, and we ask that our designs be used in a manner that aligns with these values. Marketable content & ADVERTISING Physical or digital content (including written) that is made for mass profit must have a royalty/licensing partnership or agreement with the owner and merchandiser for the Wickerbeast species. These situations are looked over individually on a case-by-case basis. This rule is for large businesses who want to produce physical and digital merchandise at a larger scale using the wickerbeast name. At this time you must have a partnership to produce: Continuous physical merchandise (shirts, bags, pants, keychains, etc) at a mass scale. Doing a small run (ex: 200-1000) of merch once or twice is not what we consider mass profit. However, if these runs were continuously occurring - we would ask you to be partners. Games / films using the Osova / the Wickerbeast World / lore. You do not need a partnership for these: Publishing literature using the Osova/ the Wickerbeast World/ lore, as long as it is properly attributed back to the website or PineWarden. Using an individual Wickerbeast OC in an unrelated game or film not using the Wickerbeast World / lore, as long as it is properly attributed back to the website or PineWarden. An example of this would be a modern dating simulator. Adoptables / "Sellable" designs. VR Avatar Bases & Custom VR Models Youtube Videos using Wickerbeasts or speaking about Wicker content. Music using Wickerbeasts or speaking about Wicker content. However, anyone with a partnership will be more heavily endorsed and featured on our website permanently provided partnership terms are met. How much does a partnership cost? (This is based off furry-based consumption & businesses, not mass businesses like Walmart.) It depends on the company. For transparency, this percentage scales from 2% of each sale to 10% of each sale, depending on how large the company is and WHAT they are selling and for HOW much. This can also be a one-time fee depending on the merchandise. This is worked out with each individual and their business specifics are considered. Partnerships keep the website running and allow for more merchandise to be created and for the species owner to continue making content for Wickerbeasts specifically. I want to be advertised on the website! To be featured on the website, you will need two to five in depth consumer reviews (with proof of sales or product photos received from you from each). This is to avoid featuring scammers. Then, the price is $25 per month featured paid through Kofi to PineWarden. An individual can choose how many months they'd like to be featured and what months the advertising will start. Here is a link to some 2024 analytics. In the instance that an individual on the featured section of the website is reported to be a scammer, the individual will not be refunded the money they have spent on advertising with the website. vr chat avatars & Furvilla Please note that any VR Chat wicker models & furvilla painties with non-canon features are not considered canon Wickerbeast characters and will not be accepted as such, unless they are accompanied by a version or reference sheet that accurately represents canon features. These models are considered more for entertainment purposes, similar to Furvilla painties. However, we would like to emphasize that these models and their creators are still a welcomed part of our community, and their enthusiasm for the species is greatly appreciated. We understand that these models are created for fun and entertainment purposes, and we encourage creative expression within our community.

Info about the wicker rogue subtype ROGUE SUBTYPE Sometimes our friends are small! Rogues are the smallest subtype of wickers and lack horns. They are a common sight among cities and rural areas. Their height difference makes it a little difficult for them to navigate around their taller peers. They are a little bit defenseless but they make up for it with cleverness. HOW TO MAKE a rogue A rogue is a pretty simple subtype. The only absolute needs for a rogue to be a rogue is that it must have no horns and they typically have a lesser amount of fluff than their subtype cousins. They have very small claws and builds. Their body has little to no extra fur patches except in the shoulder, elbow, and tail areas. rogue SPECIFICS Rogues are an incredibly small subtype. Due to this, they have had to become increasingly clever around their peers. A rogue is very light weight and nimble, able to escape most foes by either running or hiding somewhere. They are experts at survival because they are the runts of the wickerbeast species. Rogues will often outwit their opponents with their mind and stratedgy. Being bitten by a rogue is not nearly as painful as the other subtypes. The downfall of this is that Rogues can unhook their jaws much faster and strike again. If you are bit by a wickerbeast - it is already not a fun time. Imagine being bit two or three times in a row with very strong little jaws. Very painful! Rogues can live in cities and urban areas but most prefer the rural country side. It is much easier for them to live peacefully without the fear of being in some ones space or possibly bullied. Rogues tend to love to build under ground houses and burrow (hobbit-like) houses. They find it more suitable for their needs since they don't need much space. They have a great relationship with Dwellers because of their love to burrow out holes and homes. These two subtypes will also often be seen working together in jewel mines. A dweller will dig with their powerful tail claws and hand claws while a rogue will clear the debris or get into hard to reach places that the dweller can't quite get to with their bigger hands. This subtype tends to lean towards being merchants and shop keepers due to being able to get hard to find items that the bigger subtypes cannot get to. On the other side of this, rogues are particularly great at the entertainment district. A lot of rogues find great money in being professional rodeo clowns, jesters, circus employees, theatrical artists, and daredevils. It is a good focus due to their ability to move quickly and their small size. Background image by the lovely ThatCreatureJuk .

SEA & RIVER LIFE What exists in the murky depths? Monsters? Fish? Treasure? To be updated. Banner image done by the lovely ThatCreatureJuk OSOVIAN FISH GHOULDFISH Freshwater The Ghouldfish appears to be a significantly hypertrophied variant of common goldfish. Its exaggerated size likely results from unique environmental factors or a specific genetic anomaly, leading these fish to be nearly immortal unless killed. TIGERFISH Salt & Freshwater Despite its common name, the Tigerfish's biology aligns more closely with catfish, evidenced by its barbels (whiskers) which serve as sensory organs for navigating murky waters. Its striped pigmentation likely functions as camouflage. It makes almost a purring sound when threatened. KNOBHEAD TETRA Freshwater The Knobhead Tetra exhibits a pronounced cranial protrusion, suggesting a possible adaptation for competition (display or combat), enhanced sensory perception, or even a specialized organ housed within the bump. Still researching. OBLONG SURFACE GULPER Saltwater Its elongated body shape likely reduces drag in both water and air. This gives it a unique surface-skimming behavior and potential advantage to escape from aquatic predators. STRANgE FISH LOVER'S FISH Saltwater FRILLED SKIPPER Salt & Freshwater The Lover's Fish showcases exaggerated, heart-shaped fins which potentially play a role in mating displays. Not much is known of it due to the high pressure it lives under. These are very combative angry fish. These prominent, fleshy fin extensions are not just for display or respiration, but also house specialized glands that produce potent toxins. A sting from this guy can paralyze for a few hours. tO BE DISCOVERED Saltwater Research pending. TO BE DISCOVERED Saltwater Research pending. ABYSSAL MONSTER Based on the limited "sightings," one could speculate on some aspects of the Abyssal Monster's biology. Its seal-like body suggests it might be a mammal, possibly an evolved pinniped adapted to deeper waters. The two horns could be bony protrusions used for defense, display, or even sensory purposes in the low-light abyssal zone. However, without further evidence, these remain purely speculative interpretations of its unique physical characteristics. Essentially, this monster is folklore until proven otherwise.

Info about the wicker dweller subtype dweller SUBTYPE Dwellers are a mutation from the standard subtyping. They are a little bit in the uncanny territory with several traits on them being unlike any other subtype. They are land-dwelling wickers but spend most of their time under ground, in cave society systems, or in rural areas. The dweller subtype is somewhat rare - not due to population, but due to the fact they are not seen usually outside of their comfort zones of the underground or mountain cave systems. HOW TO MAKE A dweller A dweller is particularly interesting trait wise in that sometimes they have mismatching horns. No other subtype has that trait. Horns can be matching on a dweller as well however. Dweller manes only grow on the back of their neck area and do not crawl to the front of their neck. Their ears have jagged, cropped appearances and sometimes the front of their nose has a large rhino-like horn. The strangest attribute is their tail that has two claws positioned at the end of it. These claws are because of inbreeding that happened in very early Osova. Dwellers tend to be lanky build wise. dweller SPECIFICS This subtype spends most of their lives in underground communities. These communities are well-run and are like any other city in osova - just underground. Most of these city locations are hand carved out by clan members. These cities can be built in the sides of mountains or mountain cave systems as well. They are not usually located terribly high however due to the lack of fur on dwellers. Dwellers do have fur but it is not always well taken care of. Some dwellers can have patchy or greasy fur due to the dirt they dig through. Fur cleanliness is usually low on the priority of dweller's due to finding more value in other things and because the fur just gets re-dirtied when they dig. Due to dwellers digging often, dwellers have found many jewels and valuable minerals. These can be turned into jewelry, weapons, or melted down into other materials which is why mining is a significant part of dweller communities. Dwellers are the leading resource on providing ores, materials, and other valuables to other communities. Without dwellers, there are no weapons in Osova. Dweller tails are particularly dangerous due to their large claws on the tip. These claws tend to be extremely sharp and can benefit a dweller in combat. When not in combat, dwellers use their tail claws to hold items or lanterns when walking through the dark of their community systems. These claws can move independently. This subtype has figured out how to repair their tail claws and horns. They use tree sap imported from Aerion adversaries. A dweller will use a jewel, mineral, or other material and shape it to fit the missing portion of their claw or horn. The tree sap when heated will solidify, acting as glue, and keep the material bonded with the original piece of the claw. The only down side to this is that part of the initial claw still has to be existing for the bond material to work effectively. If a dweller claw is entirely removed or damaged - there is no saving it. It will be stitched up. Their communities are particularly secretive about their way of using tree sap - so no other subtype will have this feature of having a claw partially made out of a crystal or mineral. Dweller's have relatively poor eyesight from living in darker places when outside their territories. Their eyesight is more guided towards dimly lit places and they tend to see better in those areas.
