This is a restricted trait and cannot be used on ANY Stygian or MYO without owning this specific potion. It does carry over to each form the Stygian has. It cannot be inherited by Guardian Stygian.
Gives your Stygian 'control' over shadows, allowing them to create elbow wings, antlers, or a familiar out of shadow.
Uncommon Shadow Weaving can be a single pair of elbow wings, a set of antlers, or a famliar.
Shadow weaving should always be a single colour, though it can be a gradient of that colour. For example, light red to dark red, or blue to dark blue, but not blue to black or red to orange. You can do white to gray, or gray to black, but not white to black.
Shadow weaving will always have a single eye - this eye will be white with a pupil that is the same colour as the Stygian's eye. Around and connected to the eye will be white branching marks. See reference.
Shadow Winglets can replace the Stygian's elbow wings (one wing on each side). Should remain the same size as normal elbow wings, unless Shadowweaving level 2 is added, which can increase the winglets to the same size as Elbow Wings Plus, or add shadow tattoos to the leg (tattoos must be connected to the shadow wings).
Shadow Antlers can replace all or part of a Stygian's antlers (not horns) up to 25% of the Stygian's body size. Shadow weaving level 2 allows for multiple horns and antlers, as well as down the spine at no more than 50% of body size. Can only replace antlers if your Stygian already has antlers.
Shadow Familiar allows for a single small familiar, less than 25% of the Stygian's size for bipedal and 50% for quadrupedal. This familiar can take any shadow shape, but should always remain a flat color. It cannot have accessories. Shadow Weaving level 2 would allow for a single familiar up to 50% of Stygian body size for bipedal and 100% for quadrupedal.
Shadow Weaving can affect every form on a Stygian with a single potion, but cannot pass to guardians.
This trait does not affect a Stygian's rarity. (A common stygian with this trait will remain a common rarity Stygian.)
REGULAR STYGIAN BODY LENGTH
The BODY LENGTH of a regular stygian is measured from their chest (without fluff) to where their butt is.
Tails, extra acessories, etc, are not counted into the length of the body. When a trait says 100% of body/ body length, it would be 100% the body length (direction of the arrows from beginning to end) marked in red.
Miniature versions follow the same rules, just with miniature sizing (ie using the body length of that miniature)
LONG BODIED STYGIAN BODY LENGTH
The BODY LENGTH of a regular stygian is measured from their chest (without fluff) to where their butt is.
Long bodied Stygian have much longer bodies than regular ones. When measuring the length of a long bodyied stygian body, take the body length of the REGULAR Stygian above and multiple it by 1.5 to 2x the length
Tails, extra acessories, etc, are not counted into the length of the body. When a trait says 100% of body/ body length, it would be 100% the body length (direction of the arrows from beginning to end) marked in red.
Miniature versions follow the same rules, just with miniature sizing (ie using the body length of that miniature)
BIPEDAL STYGIAN BODY LENGTH
The BODY LENGTH of a bipedal Stygian subspecies (ie Grendel, Page, Sylph) is measured from the top of their head to their toes.
Bipedal Stygian do not include Stygian that "stand" or "pose" on their hind legs (ie regular stygian posing that way) and must be considered a bipedal subspecies that stands on their hind legs in the subspecies infograph (see subspecies info).
Hair, head additions, tails, extra acessories, etc, are not counted into the length of the body. When a trait says 100% of body/ body length, it would be 100% the body length (direction of the arrows from beginning to end) marked in red.
For object head, it would be the approximate length of where the Stygian's regular non object head would be.
Miniature versions follow the same rules, just with miniature sizing (ie using the body length of that miniature)
TREATLING BODY LENGTH
The BODY LENGTH of a Treatling subspecies (ALL) is measured from the top of their head to their toes.
Hair, head additions, tails, extra acessories, etc, are not counted into the length of the body. When a trait says 100% of body/ body length, it would be 100% the body length (direction of the arrows from beginning to end) marked in red.
For object head, it would be the approximate length of where the Treatling's regular non object head would be.
