Custom Questions & Old Forms

[~Latonia de la Courtel~]

@ Ende: (mostly) I used images from the "Unofficial Soq Mane and Tail" guide as references for short tail and curly mane.. Do I need to seek the permission of the owners? >.>;;; It's the standard hairstyles, I just like it when I can see it in front of me, so I added it as ref... XP Thanks!

if its a standard hair style you don't need to use a reference image, you just need to tell me the style Like "long mane, curly tail' or "hair and tail long' etc.

If you can't find it listed however - showing me an image of the style should be fine - the concern is primarily towards custom hair and other edits.

I'd like to put a question forward if I may:

When colorists are done with a customer's custom ... do they PM the customer with an uncerted image?

I know other shops take this approach ... but I was not sure about Soquili.

Yes. They will PM you, especially to make sure that it's what you wanted.

Ok! I was brainstorming potential future soq notions today and came up with a bunch of those tricky is-this-considered-a-mutation questions. They're things that I've seen on a few soqs but am uncertain whether these days they're considered mutations or not. So, here is my list! XD Anyone who would like to help clarify these would be most welcome!

1. On the Cerynei, what sort of horn edits would be allowed? Would say... goat horns or antelope horns instead of deer horns be considered mutations? Would any sort of straight no-prong horn edits be allowed?

2. Are whiskers of any sort allowed? I'm thinking mainly of the sort of long flowing dragon-esque whiskers.

3. Fin edits on kelpi are not allowed, right?

4. Is it possible to have a mane that joins with the tail, that runs entirely down the crest of the back (also in the style of an eastern dragon).

Uuuuuuum... and I think that's it for now! Thanks for the help! ^^

Since there are species of deer where the females retain antlers, can we receive female Cerynei that contain antlers?

And similar to what Roniel asked- are things like palmated antlers considered mutations, or are they now covered by the Cerynei?  

[tefla]

Okay ... now tefla's confused.

I've read two different things regarding ordering of customs

From Customs Subforum

Quote:

You can only get one slot a month from only one colorist unless it's been 24 hours and all the colorist's slots have not sold. If that's the case, you can get an additional slot. This includes co-ownership as well.

And from Custom Forms/Rules/Pricing

Quote:

You may only order one soquili and one familiar slot every two months to prevent someone from taking all the slots.

Which one is correct? If it is the second l would like to know if it means two months to the date of the last slot that you win (So Feb 27-April 27)

2 and 4 are mutations, as they are not standard breed traits of any species at this time.

I will find out a hard answer for you about 1 and 3 - although I suspect both are mutations as well. Don't take my word for it right now, though.

@Fallaryn: The only way cheaper to get custom wings would be to win a quest raffle. Those are free 3nodding

Unless by half-unfurled you mean wind wings? These are the templated wind wings and can be purchased through a rare slot:

Thanks for the info and for looking into it, Tig! biggrin  

[The Red Dame]

I have a custom price question, which anyone can answer. About how much would the following edits run?

- Lightning around body
- Long, wild, billowy mane/tail that change to smoke/clouds about halfway through. Mane with crown of small flowers, some of which are starting to catch fire.
- "Feathers" (long fur by hooves) changing to smoke/clouds toward ends.  

[Sabin Duvert]

Do cursed skinwalkers obtained through custom slots need to be cursed regular soquili (assuming that you're getting a fresh skinwalker and not cursing a pre-existing one)? Or could someone, for example, order a cursed rare breed. If allowed, does that affect the price? ((Or would it only affect the price if you want to get the unpelted form as well - which says it is half the price of the edited soquili added to it).

Also, I know that Angeni are not able to be skinwalker'd, and I'd heard that neither are usdia, but is that official? What about Mers? Mostly curious more than anything there.  

[natsu]

I dunno about Mers but Usdia are definitely not allowed to be skinwalkers- usdias are not supposed to have any traits other than regular.

1. Complex coloring if it's a marking, mutant if it's lightning separate from the horse (mutant stuff can't be bought through customs).
2. A mane turning into smoke or clouds is mutant - can't get it through customs. Flowers would be a light edit probably.
3. Feathering turning into smoke is mutant - can't get it through customs.

@Sabin: For your first question, I'll have to look into that as well.

But I know the 3 breeds at the moment that can't become skinwalkers are Angeni (goes against their nature ICly), Usdias, and Mers.

CuterThanYou

Mers cannot be skinwalkers, but kelpi can be. As long as the animal it turns into is already a familiar for the shop (like a lobster, seal, etc).

If you wanted a fishy skinwalker you'd be able to get a Kelpi cursed, but not a Mer. Again, whether you can do this through customs yet I'm not sure - I'm gonna try to come back with answers for you and Roniel later today.
