Characters can have forms in multiple species, or can switch from one species to another. All of these redesigns will require a charm.
- To add a Dirtkitty form to a character, you will need a Dirtkitty Charm
- To add a Soapuppy form to a character, you will need a Soapuppy Charm
- To switch a character from one species to another, discarding their previous form, you will need a Switcheroo Charm
Having a character with different species forms does not require the usage of the Multi-Form or Additional Form Traits.
When it comes to picking out traits to use on the new form, it will be based on each traits category. You may either use any traits of the same rarity, or a common one. (e.g., a Soapuppy with Ice as a substance is welcome to use either Sour Gummy or Standard Gummy) If you would like to upgrade or change the rarity (e.g. a Soapuppy with Ice having a Dirtkitty form with Freeze Dried Gummy), you will have to attach an item of the respective rarity and species you are creating.
Rarity only applies to its own category and cannot carry over into a different one. (e.g. a Soapuppy with a rare tail, but common substance, cannot have a rare gummy type without the usage of an item)
Species may carry over regardless of rarity, but are not required to. This only applies to exact equivalents, such as a lion Soapuppy being allowed to use the Big Cat Dirtkitty trait. A character with a species that cannot exist in the new form cannot have its species carried over. Regular rarity rules would apply in this instance. (e.g. a Soapuppy with the Hybrid trait would be allowed a common or rare Dirtkitty species trait, but would not be able to have a dirtkitty form that’s a hybrid between a deer and a bird)
All Traits in the “extra” category, and traits with exact equivalents (e.g. Additonal Tails), will carry over regardless of if they have a different rarity. If you would like to add any traits the previous/other form does not have, you will need to use its respective item.
Some traits have equivalents under different names.
Trait Equivalents
To use a charm, navigate to the character you want to update and select "Update Design"
From this page, go about your design update as normal. Remember to specify the changes you are making in the comments tab! (in this instance, specify your usage of a charm) Upload your image in the images tab, and attach your charm, and any additional items, on the items tab.
On the traits tab, begin by selecting your new species (the one the character is changing into) on this dropdown menu at the top of the page.
After this, remove all of the character's old traits and input all of the traits the new form uses. From there, simply submit your design update, and the form will be changed or added!
This process is the same regardless of charm used.
