Nice job HDAZ!!! Keep it up!

Thanks! So, I've been sick all day, so I missed school. I took the opportunity to draw. I thought I might as well post the info on the species I created if I'm going to post more of those characters.

Species name:
Okami Sphyro

Nicknames:
•Elementals
•Okami

Breed: Wolf / Fox like
Colors: mainly grey, brown, white, or black. Natural colors. However, many have bright patterns overlaying the base colors. The overlaying colors can be just about any color. Some patters on the Okami's body can glow, though it is uncommon. All Okami's start out with basic coloring from birth, and as they develop elemental abilities, their appearance changes.
Body: very similar to that of a wolf. Can have from 1-4 tails, multiple tails are rare. Often have large and fluffy bodies, though depending on the Okami's habitat, it can have shorter fur.

Can have:
Wings (Air, Light, Dark)
Extra tails (1-4)
Apparel
Scars
Glowing fur patterns (any color permitted)
Glowing eyes (most colors permitted)
Missing limbs
Siblings (up to 2)

Can't have:
Extra body parts (unless otherwise stated)
More than 1 element
Original powers (unless approved)
Godly powers
Cannot be a king/queen/ruler/leader (unless otherwise stated)
Can't have an extremely high status (unless otherwise stated)
Immortality
Mutations (unless approved)

Ect.:
•All Okami have parents of two different elements.
•It's impossible for two Okami of the same element to breed.
•Okami are constantly at war with other elements.
•Because Okami are at war, there are less pups.
•Pups develop one of the elements their parents had, they don't have both, and they can't be example Air if the parents were fire and earth.
•There are two alliances in the wars, Light leads one, Dark leads the other. Light and Dark have an ancient rivalry, and won't rest until one destroys the other.

Elements:
Almost every Okami has an element. Those who don't are quite rare, and very unfortunate. Such Okami's don't last very long. The appearance of an Okami often reflects their element. There are a large range of specific elemental abilities that an elemental Okami can have. However, Okami's can only have 1-3 of those said abilities. It is impossible for their bodies to handle any more than 3 without being driven mentally insane or to death.

The possible elements for Okami's to have are:
•Fire
Passionate, determined warriors who were born and raised to fight. They are some of the most powerful and dangerous Okami in the land. However, Fire Okami are all offense and no defense.
•Water
Gentle, friendly healers who live peacefully along all coastlines of the land. They do not often go into combat, but heal the injured instead of fight. They are often one of the most desired Elementals to have on ones side during a war. They are often one of the main targets when recruiting for the war.
•Light / Sun
One of the two legendary elements. The Light element, referred to as the Sun element in ancient times, was one of the first elements ever to be wielded by an Okami. Light Okami are heroes, often leaders of alliances. They are prosperous and kind, and care about the well being of every Okami, both friend and foe. Very, very few light Okami have wings. Those wings are light and feathery, like those of a bird.
•Dark / Moon
One of the two legendary elements. The Dark element, referred to as the Moon element in ancient times, was one of the first elements ever to be wielded by an Okami. Dark Okami are misunderstood. Most are thieves and infamous Elementals that rise conflict and start wars. Because most dark Okami are bad in some way, the good dark Okami are classified with the bad, and become bitter and hateful because they were exiled from all celebrations and events for no reason. They often had little to no say in any matter. Very, very few dark Okami have wings. Those wings are reptilian, those of a dragon.
•Air
The only Okami known to have wings, aside from Dark / Light Okami. They are experts in combat, but are only trained to fight in the air. They are seen as valuable allies for possessing an ability that few Okami's have. Most Air Okami are eccentric and optimistic.
•Earth
Skilled strategists, they prosper by hiding from threats though a series of underground tunnel systems, as well as large rocky forts above ground. They are better at defense than offense, are are sought after during wars to build shelters so warriors can rest without worry. They are stoic warriors who don't often speak their mind.
•Ice
Reclusive and dangerous, these Elementals live in the mountain areas. They don't like to cooperate with other Elementals, or even other Okami of their element. They are very stubborn, and self reliant. Many ice Okami die young from injuries or illness because they refuse assistance or help of any kind. They would rather handle themselves than rely on others.

Continued on next post because its too long.

Continued.

Elemental Abilities:

Every elemental Okami has 2-3 special abilities that only Okami of their element can do. Every Okami has the standard elemental ability, as well as one to two other abilities. Most abilities are close to the same, but have different effects because of the elemental power. A few good examples are the water wisps and fire wisps. They are both the same ability, but because of the different elemental power used, can have very different effects.

Fire:
•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For fire, the standard is the ability to create fire with any part of their body. The tail(s) can be used to make fiery whips that slash through the air, and the paws can create varying types of fire. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each Okami. This ability can easily kill the user, and those around the user if not properly controlled.

•Fire Wisps
Can create small floating balls of fire that can either be harmless or deadly. They can be in any color, but each Okami can only make it one specific color. Example: One Okami can have blue wisps, but only blue, while another Okami can have green wisps, but only green. They can be used to light paths or rooms, or can be placed as a minefield, floating mines set to explode on impact. The wisps are small, but still inflict a bit of damage, fire burns, even if it's just a small flame.

•Molten Claws
Some, but few fire Okami have and ability called molten claws. The paws of the Okami can heat to such intense levels, it can leave scorched paw prints in stone. This ability is very rare, as well as dangerous. Only masters can control this power. In combat, masters have learned to only heat certain parts of their paws, such as only the pads, or only the claws. Heating only the claws is something often used during fights to leave terrible wounds in their enemies. This style of fighting is what gave the ability it's name—Molten Claws.

Water:
•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For water, the standard is the ability to move and manipulate water with basic body movements. This is a rather resourceful skill and has various ways of use. It can be used for basic combat, or for finding resources to survive. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each Okami.

•Water Wisps
Can create small floating balls of water, to slow down enemies in the air if they run into them. The wisps can also heal the wounded, if used properly and by an expert. Not commonly used in combat.

•Aquatic°
This is a very useful ability that some water Okami have. They can breathe underwater for up to half an hour, which is useful for hiding or fishing.

Light / Sun:

•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For Light, the standard is the ability to manipulate light with basic body movements. This ability can be used to blind, burn, or confuse Okami of other elements. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each Okami.

•Nova°
A Light Okami that has white patches and/or glowing markings on its body can have this ability. This ability causes the brighter parts on the Okami to light up intensely, blinding, dazing, and scaring off competition... And prey. It's effects only last a few seconds, so it is a good ability to use while fighting or hunting. While the prey is disabled, you can finish the job.

•Restoration°
A rare ability that allows the user to heal small injuries with its magic. However, this ability can also help teammates, as it also cures poison and gives the Okami around the user more energy.

Dark / Moon:

•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For Dark, the standard is the ability to manipulate shadows with basic body movements. This ability can be used to impair the vision of other Okami for a certain amount of time, causing the Okami's vision to blur, and if the ability is used by a master, it can completely blind an Okami for a medium duration of time. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each.

•Reflection
The user can disguise itself as a shadow, good for stealthily sneaking up on prey or enemies. They can appear as the shadows of other Okami, and can also appear as their reflection in water. Spies, soldiers, and other types of devious Okami use this ability as an easy way to hunt, and gather information.

•Syphon
An ability that is used by many Okami, for malicious purposes. Dark energies are used to lock the target where it's standing, so it cannot escape. Then, the Okami uses the remaining dark energies in the area to syphon the energy of the target, transferring all if its energy to the attacking Okami.

Air:

•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For Air, the standard is the ability to move, create, manipulate winds, and thermal air with basic body movements. It can be used to slow down, disable, or cause damage to prey and other Okami. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each Okami.

•Storm
An ability that allows an Air Okami to manipulate small amounts of electricity. This ability can only be used in high altitudes, during bad weather. Okami cannot produce lightning, only direct it.

•Resistance°
An Air Okami with this ability is able to survive extremely high altitudes where the air is thinnest and coldest.

Earth:

•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For Earth, the standard is the ability to move and manipulate dirt, stone, or gemstones with basic body movements. This is a skill that has various ways of use. It can cause tremors underground, collapse tunnels, and several other things that can be used to hunt prey or battle. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each Okami.

•Canyon
An ability that allows the Okami to make a large, deep crevice in the ground that sends anything in its path plummeting to the ground. If the ability is used at the same time by many Okami, the "canyon" can be longer and wider. Often used to make irrigation systems or traps.

•Encase
An ability that allows the Okami to make large, high stone and dirt walls rise from the ground around the target. This prevents escape, but nothing else. Often used for hunting.

Ice:

•Normal elemental ability
Every Okami has the standard ability of their element. For Ice, the standard is the ability to move, manipulate, and create ice with basic body movements. This is a very powerful ability, that is one of the most complex to control. It can be used for advanced combat, hunting, and several other things that assist Okami in surviving. Okami can learn several different techniques, so the normal elemental ability is always unique to each Okami. This ability can easily kill the user, and those around the user if not properly controlled.

•Shard
This ability can be used to make several sharp, prismatic shards of ice. They can be used to impale, trap, or pin prey or opponents to a surface.

•Endurance°
This ability allows the Ice Okami to be able to withstand almost any kind of extreme weather.

New character. He has a name, but for now it will remain private for the love of fandom.

That is amazing, HDAZ.

Keep up the great work! C:
