help with making a species??
8 years ago
yooo i need a lil help!!
I've been trying to come up with a species for a lil while and have been working on it whenever i get tired of comms aaaand ... it's very generic. like, i-can-think-of-5k-other-species-like-this generic D:
this is a ref of an adopt one i'm doing atm https://snag.gy/1bvzL5.jpg uuh yeah
so far, all the background on them i've come up with is that they're called Brewers, they like to party and cause havoc, each one has a specific drink tied to them and the more they drink, the more powerful their magic is (you can thank megalugiax for that last idea :D)
they have a really thick and fluffy double mane, and a kind of sectioned tail as well as two pairs of floofy arms, but apart from that, i can't really think of anything to make them look unique and appealing without looking weird D:
any ideas??
//edit ALSO FORGOT TO ADD they're an open species!! i figured there's probably something similar to them out there and it wouldnt be fair to claim this as some sort of private thing if there is

Small, not to big patterns to them. Like a ring of diamonds or the like around a wrist, or a cresent on their chest, etc. Small things make a LOAD of difference when making a character.
lore helps, but if you want it simple, keep it simple. don't feel like they must have amazing awesome backstories. though even something small like "oh they came from a land that had drinks as it's main product" adds to them.
Not sure what else can help!
those are just a few ideas, though~
