[Original Species] Flammaesurit Info
11 years ago
COMMISSIONS: YCH ONLY || ART TRADES: MUTUALS ONLY || REQUESTS: NEVER || CUSTOMS: ASK Finally decided to write an official journal for my original species; please stick as much as possible to this info with your adopt, especially to those I gave permission to make their own.
I will add/change/remove information over time as I see fit. Please feel free to ask any question about the species, as it helps me developing it further! <3
Flammaesurit are a CLOSED species. That means you can't make your own or copy this species information for your own species or character/s.
I am not claiming I own candles, animal ears and tails, or spirits but this is MY own version of a candle inspired species.
Being my own original species, you CAN NOT change the traits characteristic of the species; you can't for example, change traits that would change also their rarity type.
Changes in hairstyle/color palette/outfit are ok!

General
"Flammaesurit" comes from latin, meaning "hungry flames".
They are spirits who can't (or don't want to) cross the borderline to the Afterlife, still anchored to Earth and its mortal beings. As such, they need to feed off life sources to keep their soul existant; failure to do so will result in their soul simply vanishing, without even going to the Afterlife...they just disappear from existance.
They don't need to be strictly living beings souls, sometimes they can be the spirit embodiment of an object due to its sentimental value, or of a place where something intense happened, leaving traces of the emotions of the event.
In case of an ex-living being soul, it may happen that their appearance as a Flammaesurit doesn't match with their appearance as a living being; that's because it is based off their soul, which may drastically be different from the body (like a very ugly person, but with a good and kind, "beautiful" soul).
Flammaesurit come in different species, ranging from feral to furry/anthro to human kemonomimi, but they all have a tail ending up with a candle (if their species has a tail shape not fitted for the candle, they'll have a generic whip-like tail).
This candle has a vital function for them, as it burns with their own soul to keep them "alive".
The "soul flame" stays alive by consuming emotions and feelings from living beings, such as happiness, depression, faith, fear, laughter, and so on. Every Flammaesurit has only one candle and the ability to feed off only one type of emotion/feeling, save rare cases (see "Rare Traits" section below).
Being spirits, they can turn invisible or float at will, but it consumes higher amounts of energies so they prefer doing it just when necessary (i.e. during hunting).
If they fail to feed appropriately their soul flame, the flame slowly extinguishes, their body completely melts like wax, and the Flammaesurit is no more. They can choose to pass to the Afterlife before it's too late, but most Flammaesurit are too stubborn or simply don't realize when it's actually too late.
There is also another occasion when their body could melt, and it is in the opposite event, alias if they exceed in consuming feelings/emotions. In fact, if they're not powerful enough, their body can't contain all the power and it completely melts.
They can have some slightly melty bits, but that usually isn't a big concern, more of an aestethic factor.
The soul flame can be any color, but it's always the same color as the Flammaesurit eyes, as they too are a manifestation of their soul.
The eyes are always hollow, and the irises are usually very small (but very bright, like an inner fire), especially if the Flammaesurit is a place/object embodiment; if they're of a normal size it's usually because they're either a soul who became a Flammaesurit pretty recently, or a very good soul, meaning in both cases they're still very attached to their living self/"humanity".
It is very possible for a Flammaesurit to be genderless, especially if it's a place/object embodiment. Being just spirits, they cannot breed/have children of course.
It may happen however, for them to create new place/objects embodiments, but it's a very rare case since Flammaesurit usually have lost much of their sensitive side/humanity (it's also difficult for them to feel huge feelings -like love-, it may even cause them to melt if they can't contain such emotions).
Due to this, they're also mainly loners, and don't like long-lasting attachments like family, friends and serious lovers, as they usually hardly feel true deep emotions and it's difficult to get their trust.
They prefer wandering in solitude or haunting specific places, it mainly depends by their lifestyle/what they need to feed off (for example, they'd prefer an hotel over a creepy mansion despite being loner spirits because they'd have more "oneshot" preys).
Rare Traits
Not all Flammaesurit are the same, their appearance and abilities may vary depending on their rarity. They are classified in:
---Common: standard Flammaesurit, only one candle, one soul flame color, etc. aka NO rare traits
---Uncommon: Flammaesurit with ONLY ONE rare trait
---Rare: Flammaesurit with 2+ rare traits
---Legendary: Flammaesurit whose soul is so pure or so evil, that they became almost heavenly or hellish beings. They're classified in Angelus and Daemon. [will disclose more info about them soon]
The possible rare traits are the following:
---Multiple Candles: self explainatory, a Flammaesurit with more than one candle. It's most commonly a rare trait for those who have horns or other features suitable for multiple candles, but their tail can split in two as well to allow an extra candle.
Multiple candles allow more soul power (they can endure more emotions/feelings and feel themselves with less risks), but they need to be fed more often as they burn more energy.
---Bicolored Soul Flame/s: self explainatory, a Flammaesurit with their soul flame/s with two different color. It is usually associated with multiple personality disorders and/or the "multiple feeding" rare trait. It can be a single bicolored soul flame or multiple soul flames each of a different color (max. 2 if completely different colors, max. 4 if different shades of the same color).
It always brings heterochromia as well.
---Multiple Feeding: sometimes, a Flammaesurit can be able to feed off 2-3 different emotions/feelings instead of only one. Usually these emotions/feelings are still somewhat related (i.e. fear and paranoia) and it's a really looked for trait as it allows more prey variety and easier hunting.
---Supernatural Abilities: those Flammaesurit with a more powerful soul may be able to develop some special abilities. Abilities may be illusions, mind manipulation, telekinesis, weather change, premonition, etc.; they're mainly esp abilities and rarely physical ones.
---Alive Flame: very rarely, Flammaesurits go as far as to devour a whole soul from an alive being (mostly like when they're starving or feel threathened). And even more rarely, the victim's soul isn't fully "digested" (either by the Flammaesurit's fault or 'cause the soul is too strong) and can manifest through the flame in the candle tail. The flame will either take a different form (like of an animal or a ghost) or produce a shaped smoke, and it will be able to talk from time to time. The Flammaesurit will be stuck with this new companion forever, and will always drip wax from its body due to effort it takes to sustain the companion. (this is a VERY rare trait, not for uncommons!)
---Angelus Traits: [Angelus Flammaesurit are so rarely seen than not many can correctly explain them. Will provide info as soon as more is discovered.]
---Daemon Traits: [Daemon Flammaesurit are so rarely seen than not many can correctly explain them. Will provide info as soon as more is discovered.]
...more traits may be discovered and added...
F.A.Q.
[frequently asked questions]
[Q-01] If the candle on the Flammaesurit's tail breaks, what happens?
[A-01] Contrary to pupular belief, having their candle broken or even cut off isn't lethal for a Flammaesurit; a new flame immediately starts burning, and the tail tip starts melting like wax very fast until they make a new candle.
[Q-02] So, you say Flammaesurit "feed" off emotions, does that mean the victim gets deprived of said feeling?
[A-02] Not at all. The don't really "absorb" the feeling, but are more affected/influenced by it than anything, like an hyper empathic person. That's why "meaner" Flammaesurit feed off fear, killer insticts, etc. while the "nicer" ones prefer happiness, hope, etc.
To make an example, it would be like smelling your favorite food would be enough to feed, without taking any of it.
Plus, the longer the feeling stays, the more they can feed off it, so taking it away would result in them not being able to eat from that person anymore for the time being.

That's all I could think of atm! Will probably add more with time, but feel free to ask anything or give suggestions ^^
Thanks a lot for taking your time to read this and hope you enjoy my babies!
I have more original species, so if these go well (no bashing, stealing, etc.) I may share more of them here on dA c:
Thanks again, love you all! <3333
