Castle Clouds - Update - Hiring a Colorist!!

[Shades of Venus]

So, I've been hard at work on a new adoptable I started on PI
which is now currently three days away from being out of Intros and am
hoping to have them here on Secundi very shortly.

They are going to be a highly active adoptable with lots of options available.
The colorist staff is currently huge which should allow an array of different styles and edits.
Some of the current staff may or may not be coming here, but I hope to at least get most of them over here anyways

Currently there is one breed which is known as the Nimbus however the Nimbus
will also 8 different mutated styles.

Below I included very brief information on the structure of the adoptable
to give you a better idea of what to expect



The Nimbus has three stages of life. The first stage is called the
cloud stage and is considered the Nimbus' egg like stage. It can normally
take a Cloud anywhere from 2-6 days to hatch from their cloud.
Once the Cloud has hatched it takes form of a baby Nimbus known as a Chyld.
The Chyld Nimbus will then take up to two to three weeks to grow into an adult Nimbus.


Information on the Nimbus:
http://castleclouds.adopties.net/breeds.html

Stages:






This adoptable will be a very active breeding based adoptable. Through most events you will receive your CC in it's cloud stage as very rarely are adults given out. The breeding system will work much differently as well. The Castle Cloud's breeding system will rely strictly on a game known as Capsule Pets which will be introduced as soon as it is completed (nearly done!) Capsule Pets are mini pets that will be equip-able to your CC
as sort of a bonded pet.
There will be six different types of Pets to collect. Based much off the Japanese Gashapon, the Capsule Pets will come from a Machine in which you will need Capsule Coins (the currency of the CC's land, Aislin).



These coins will can be collected, traded bought, etc.
Depending on the rarity of the Capsule Pet, when equipped will offer a different effect to a breeding.
CPs (capsule pets) will not have to be equipped to a pet, more to come on breeds and effects very shortly!





Most mutated Nimbus have special attributes gifted to them by their mutation.
And because each mutation is different, the effects are different.
Each mutation is ruled by a single element (Earth, Fire, Water or Air)
These elements play a role on how the Nimbus' personality and magic
develop. Some mutations can cause even the most docile of breeds
to become..well down right evil! Below is a list of discovered
mutations and their effects on the Nimbus.


Mutations Discovered: 2/8

The Unicorn



Rarity: Common
Element: Earth
The Unicorn Nimbus can specialize in green magic and normally
can control other earth like elements around them.
Most Unicorn Nimbuses are considered of the Good or Neutral alignment.
When two Unicorn Nimbuses are bred together they will always produce
a Unicorn offspring. When a normal Nimbus and a Unicorn Nimbus
are bred together there is a 40% the offspring will be Unicorn.


The Fae



Rarity: Common
Element: Air
The Fae Nimbus excell in magic envolving anything air related such
as controlling wind, storms or altering weather.
Due to their kind nature they also excell in white magic
such as healing and so forth.
Mostly all Faes are considered Good although
there is a very rare case of an Evil or Neutral Fae.
Two Faes will always produce a Fae Chyld,
however when bred with a normal Nimbus there
is a 40% chance of the Chyld being Fae.
