So, For those interested in the species! :D

Iic'Horrin come in several available subspecies from tiny to towering.


The Pixie Iic'Horrin:

Ref: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/9138157/

Information:

Expected Age: 300 yrs. appx.

These tiny Iic's are the smallest of all Subspecies, standing no higher than 2 and a half feet tall. They're extremely fleet of foot and very shy. Patterns similar and relating to other current living specimens of creatures on earth. [eg; baby deer.] Their diets are omnivorous ranging from vegetation such as grasses, water plants and fruits/veggies to fish and insects. Rarely do they eat carrion, but if hungry enough they will not question it.

Average size: 2-3ft

Human Contact: Always avoid human interaction.


Speech: Only ranges of squeaks, chirps, chitters and whines. Rarely will they speak human tongues.

Reproduction: Herms only. Reproduction still takes place between two individuals much like worms, slugs and snails, depending on the exchange of genetic material. The birth of Pixie Iic's is the same as that of other Iic'Horrin species, in that a fluid filled orb is birthed with an underdeveloped embryo encased. Once born, the embryo quickly develops and 'hatches' peeling out of the rubbery casing and begin walking within 24 hours. [Same for all Iic'Horrin species.]

The Pygmy Iic'Horrin:

Expected Age: 550 Yrs. Appx.

Reference: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/7787898/

The Pygmy Iic'Horrin are the second smallest of the Iic' family. Standing no taller than 5 feet tall, they're very athletic and nomadic. Never staying in one place for long, they prefer to stay in the wilds rather than urban settings, staying in woodlands or grasslands that are plentiful with game. It's not unusual to see the Pygmy wearing clothing fashioned from the skins of animals they're killed and eaten. They can be found in small groups of no more than 6, but are always found in even numbers. They will even join up with other clans of Pygmies for large game hunting. They will use tools that they make themselves. Their skin and fur transitions colours between the seasons. During the spring and summer months, their pelts are naturally occurring colours found on existing mammals in nature. [browns, greys, reds, and shades of black.]

Q: "Do they fight among each other for territory?"
A: Good question. No. they're generally pretty friendly to one another, going as far as to share land plots.

Average size: 4-5 feet.

Human Contact: Avoids contact with humans unless urgently needed for supplies hard to find during the winter months.


Speech: Known to speak in human tongue, but have a range of noises they will make to one another for communication, much like wolves.

Reproduction: Male or Female only. Birth is the same as the Pixie. Pygmies have been known to carry their young in leather carriers on their backs made from the tanned and treated leathers of animals.

The Standard Iic'horrin:

Expected Age: 3800 yrs. Appx.

Reference: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6225123/

The standard Iic'Horrin is the most well known Iic'Horrin. As a species, they come in all sorts of naturally occurring colours, with the same occurring colours in a wide variety of patterns, seemingly based on earthly elements. They are found worldwide in all sorts of terrains, the polar tundras included. Their manes, tails and mouth-flesh are the only things that vary unnaturally in colors. Iic'horrin saliva can be consumed by humans as it's very similar in molecular makeup to fresh water. Handy in desert regions!

They come in three varieties: Demon spirited, Phantom spirited and Harlequin spirited. When the Iic'Horrin are young, they possess neutral spirits. While at their young ages, they separate from their mothers to be trained and taught by Elder Iic'Horrin in life's lessons and wisdoms. Their spirits will slowly form based on these lessons and how the Elder Iic's influence them in their teachings. They differ as follows:

Demon Spirited: Demon Iic'Horrin have deeply influenced spirits; generally fuelled by darkness and hatred, they're unfriendly and very rarely accepting of others. When angred, their bodies react by shutting off the sense of sight and producing tar from the facial orifices.

Phantom Spirited: Phantoms have gentle hearts filled with good intentions. Their personalities are generally quiet and reserved, but are known to have silver tongues and be extremely eloquent. They are not to be underestimated despite their kind personalities.

Harlequin Spirited: Harlequins are a mix of both Phantom and Demon spirits. They became this way for lack of understanding or the inability to comprehend the morals of which the elder Standard Iic's have imposed upon them. They suffer side effects that are very similar to Human Bipolar Disorders.

Average size: 4.5-6ft

Human Contact: Occasional contact. Even known to make committed bonds with one human for their lifetime. But since humans rarely live past 100, the Iic'Horrin will spend the rest of their lives carrying their human's spirit with them until the Iic' themself actually passes.

Speech: Speaks human tongue. Can learn many languages of the species. The standard Iic'Horrin are slowly losing their native language.

Reproduction: Herms and females both give birth. Males and herms can impregnante. Birth is the same as the Pixie + Pygmy. Iic'Horrin mothers give birth in solitary confinement, usually trapping themselves in caves with hotsprings available after squirrelling away foodstuffs over time. Once the Iic'ling makes it to a week old, they will leave the safety of the cave to venture. Baby iic's are fully capable of defending themselves at 3 weeks of age.

The Imperial Iic'horrin:

Expected age: Unknown.

Reference: [COMING SOON]

Not much is known yet about the Imperial Iic'horrin. The males are differently scaled than the females, making them sexually dimorphic in this way. They also have risen plates on the muzzle trailing back to the head. Quite often you will see that they have 2 pairs of intricate horns rather than just one set.

Average Size: 6.5-8ft

Human Contact: See Standard Iic'Horrin.


Speech: Predominantly Human Tongue but they also speak Draconic. They've adopted these languages since they've completely lost their own tongue over the years after a war wiped out their elders who taught the language.

Reproduction: Male or Female only. Birth is the same as the other Iic's. Postnatal care is the same as the Standard.


Please comment with any questions and I'll happily answer to the best of my ability! :D
