Plotweaver Children
Haranu weaves Plotweaver eggs, which are then placed upon the land where they are collected and nurtured by a nearby Plotweaver. The Plotweaver that raises them acts as a parental figure, teaching them about their duties and magic. If a Plotweaver is raised by someone not of their kind, they tend to find their way to their true purpose regardless of what they've been exposed to.
Plotweaver younglings have very powerful magic, that they struggle to keep under control on their own. Their magic dampens as they grow, though there are rare circumstances where some Plotweavers do maintain stronger magic as they reach adulthood.
When born they do not have their filigree or colorful hair. At birth their hair is a soft, warm gray hue, and will pick up color as they grow older. After about ten years their filigree and hair color start to appear. As a youngling their horns start out small, taking a handful of years to grow in. As younglings they have to grow into their ears.
Plotweaver traits, except for a broken horn, are completely random, and do not offer any advantage or disadvantage magically or physically.
Plotweavers cannot reproduce under normal means. If they wish to have children they must consult with the Mother Weaver Haranu. Should Haranu agree to it, they must sacrifice their magic to her, and provide her with a legendary tale. Plotweaver offspring may have magical abilities, but they usually fade away as they grow up.
Plotweaver Magic
Plotweavers are capable of bending reality in small amounts to help lead others to their fairy tale destinies. They can alter the appearance of objects. Dresses, carriages, and homes are capable of being magicked into a new appearance by their will. Usually the magic is temporary, but a Plotweaver is capable of permanently changing the make and look of something.
Haranu, the continent, is lined with invisible threads. These threads have no physical form, and can only be seen and interacted with by Plotweavers. As long as they can make contact, they can use these to travel quickly across the continent.
Plotweavers must train their magic if they intend to defend themselves. With enough practice they are able to branch out and master other forms of magic for offensive and defensive properties. The filigree along their bodies act as a conduit for channeling magic. It's rumored that silver filigree Plotweavers are more adept with magic, but it's never been proven!
If a Plotweaver damages or shatters their horn they will struggle to create magic. Their magic is prone to failing as their horn is where the magic reaches its focusing point.
Standard Plotweaver Traits
Plotweavers have rabbit-like facial features, sporting a delicate curved snout and nose. They have feathered cheek tufts, and fluffy feathered ears. The standard plotweaver has a singular horn that comes in varying sizes.
The most common Plotweaver eyes carry a single tone, but they may be seen with iridescent eyes in up to four tones.
Plotweaver filigree comes in varying patterns. The patterns are delicate curls and blossoms, and can be seen in gold, silver, or other mineral materials. In rare cases the filigree is iridescent.
Plotweaver hair is colorful by nature, and comes in at least two tones. They can range upwards into a myriad of colors.
Plotweaver fur is commonly seen in pastel hues. They may also have warm earthy tones, as well as gray and black fur hues.
Their tails come in a common rabbit style, a round and fluffy style, and a unicorn style tail. There have been standard Plotweavers that simply do not have a tail.
They can sport cloven or rounded hooves, as well as rabbit feet. Some Plotweavers have hooves made entirely out of gemstones, or another mineral.
When Plotweavers achieve a storybook ending they've been trying to help someone achieve, they are gifted a "Storybook Stripe" by the goddess. Plotweavers with multiple stripes are considered more trustworthy with the fates of others, and are likely more experienced. A storybook stripe appears as added filigree along the body of a Plotweaver, and is often a quote from the tale they helped someone achieve.
Should a Plotweaver achieve a truly legendary story, they may receive a legacy gem. Legacy gems mark a truly talented Plotweaver. They come in a variety of colors and textures. Plotweavers that have legacy gems are considered the most trustworthy, and are often desired when someone is looking for guidance.
