((Know that this page is completely OOC))
The 'bare minimun info' pages are literally the bare bones information you need to own a fumi, with as little lore as possible.
These pages are contain extremely vital information for anyone who is designing a fumi (official and MYO designers alike).
Fumis are an original species created by DeviantART user Fumi-LEX.
They are currently a closed species, which means that normally, you can't make one for yourself.
For further information, such as how to obtain one, you will need to view the information center here.

Gummi FumiAn artificially created breed of fumi. Small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, with big heads and a rabbit-like body. This breed is entirely tail-less, has thumbs on the front paws, retractable claws on the hind paws, and flecks of glitter on their body and in their vapor.
They do not have classes, but are able to use any amount premium features for no extra charge! |
SnowfumiAn artificially created breed of fumi. They have furry bodies, hoof-paws, antler-like horns (pronged or branched, 1-4 horns), occassionally whip-like tails, and the ability to 'fly' like Santa's reindeer. Their vapor sacks are unable to inflate, and their vapor is always white like cold/frosty breath, and smokey colored (when unhappy).
|
Every snowfumi has an ACA-imbued object (it always has some relation to winter or winter holidays) which must be kept on the snowfumi's person at all times, or else they will quickly transform into their abominable form. While the docile/regular form always has natural fur colors and markings for an undulate (deer, horse, cow, ect.) and are markedly toothless, their abominable form grows ragged white or off-white fur and wickedly sharp, dark-colored teeth with fangs or tusks. The abominable form's scleras (whites of the eyes) and hoofs take on the same dark colors, with the hooves becoming sharp as well. While in this form, the snowfumi is extremely hostile, destructive, and completely devoid of coherent thought.
Snowfumis, like gummis, do not come in classes but are able to use any amount of premium features for free! A snowfumi can come in any size and shape from the huge painted brute to the small dwarf nurse, but never as small as a gummi.

MutantMutant is an umbrella term that refers to any and all fumis whose bodies were purposefully tampered with through the use of aether by humans.
The mutant breed can only be obtained as a gift from Fumi-LEX and are meant only for her very close friends, they will never available for adoption, custom, MYO, ect. |
Classes
For adult painted and dwarf fumis, the appearance, behavoir, and social roles are greatly influenced by hormones. There are three classes that a fumi will fall under depending on it's hormones, although it is more of a scale than actual strict categories.
-
Nurse
-
Thug
-
Brute
<
>
|
Thug ClassThese fumis are what you would consider 'average', they fall somewhere in the middle of the hormonal spectrum, and can be more dominant or more submissive depending on the individual. Thug fumis are typically average in body, tusk, horn, and feet size. The role of a thug, when not filling the role of a brute when there isn't one present in the fog, is to gather food and resources for the fog, or to scout the area for danger. They may fill the role of a nurse if there is no nurse present in the fog.
|
Brute Class
The 'dominant' extreme of the hormonal gradient, they are more aggressive and dominant. A thug fumi becomes a brute by way of hormonal surges, which they accomplish by winning breeding fights. These hormones greatly alter a fumi's appearance over time until eventually the fumi is re-classified as a brute. Brute fumis are typically bigger in body, tusk, horn, and claw size, and they have much bigger front feet and smaller back feet, as well as a more lean/muscular build (although a particularly gluttonous brute can still be fat). The role a brute plays (other than just being leader) is also protecting the other fog members and it's territory, much like a male lion would protect it's pride, they generally stay around the nesting site.
Transformations
When certain conditions are met, fumis are capable of undergoing special transformations. Transformations are permanent, so a fumi can only ever transform into one. You are allowed to draw your fumi in it's pre-transformed state, mid-transformation state, and fully transformed state at any time even after your transformation is approved.

FaerumiThis transformation occurs whenever a fumi proves itself to be benevolent and wise to the mysterious being that distributes this transformation.
Faerumis look mostly like whatever breed they were before transforming with a few marked differences: - Flat, fleshy appendages grow anywhere on the fumi's body, and can take on a variety of shapes (petal-like, butterfly wings, fabric, ect). Their ears may take on the same quality, they might even sprout extra sets of ears! There is no limit to the size and shape of these appendages and they can be opaque, transparent, or semi-transparent. These appendages are specially designed to store scents, which makes faerumis essentially living books for fumi-kind. - Antennae-like appendages can grow anywhere on the body (or not at all), which allow the faerumi to detect emotions of nearby creatures. - Thorns may sprout anywhere on the body (or not at all), these are purely cosmetic. Thorn shape, size, and stiffness can vary. - They may have short-medium fuzz or fur, which usually grows on the back and tail but can grow anywhere. Gummi faerumis can grow puff-ball tails. - They have very potent vapor that can overwhelm the senses of humans, allowing them to become 'invisible' and forgotten at will. |
SeraphumiThis transformation occurs whenever a fumi is infected with a certain disease, causing aether crystals to sprout from their body. These crystals are formed from the fumi's own aether, so it will take on the same properties (such as glittering, glowing, ect). The crystals never stop growing and carving them down is required to keep them properly maintained, they can be carved in any variety of shapes.
The formation and effects of the crystal growth are as followed: - A 'crown' grows along the forehead, eventually overtaking the eyes and horns of the fumi. Most seraphumi are blind, due to this. - 'Boots' overtake the front feet, lengthening the front limbs and forcing the fumi's posture to change, although carving can prevent this. - Smaller areas of crystals can sometimes grow on the fumi's body in scattered formations. |
CannigoomiThis transformation occurs when a painted, dwarf, or snowfumi partakes in cannibalism for an extended period of time.
Changes that a fumi undergoes during the cannigoomi transformation includes: - Becoming extremely muscled with very little body fat and partial or complete atrophication and subsequent loss (or partial loss) of the tail, due to an extremely heightened metabolism. - Ravenous with an insatiable hunger due to their metabolism constantly burning through any fat they might have otherwise gained. Being fat is possible but difficult to achieve and maintain. - The aether becoming extremely thick, filling their sack to bursting and oozing from their mouth. This aether goo is extremely caustic, and will have the same properties that the fumi's aether previously had (such as glittering, glowing, ect.) - The eyes melt away (partially or completely) from the aetherical changes, blinding them. Many develop rudimentary echolocation using high-pitched rattling noises, although this leaves them easily disoriented by certain noises. |
