Hybrid Characters A little of this and that What is a "hybrid" character? A hybrid character is a character whose unique species is the result of two separate species of animals' copulation. For many species, hybrid animals often wind up sterile and face a host of other health concerns, although players are not restricted or required to incorporate such characteristics into their characters. (This is more for awareness, then accuracy). Sparkledogs allows any currently existing or known animal hybrids, as well as hybrids between animals of similar species, but require moderation for animals of different species. All characters who display characteristics of animals from different animals classes (such as mammals and reptiles) will be required to register themselves as hell-beasts. As well, characters who exhibit characteristics of two very dissimilar animals (wolf and deer) would require to register themselves as hell-beasts.
Canines: Wolves, Foxes, Dogs, Maned Wolves, Coyotes, Dholes, and other species of canids are able to interbreed and create viable hybrids.
Felines: Lions, Tigers, Panthers, Leopards, Cheetahs, Bobcats, and other species of felines are able to interbreed and create viable hybrids.
Deer: Reindeer, Moose, Elk, White-tailed deer, and generally most species of cervidae are able to interbreed and create viable hybrids.
Bears: Pandas, Polar bears, Black bears, and other species of ursidae are able to interbreed and create viable hybrids.
Raptors: Eagles, hawks, falcons, vultures, and other birds of prey species are able to interbreed and create viable hybrids.
Game Birds: Chickens, quails, turkeys, pheasants and other species of game birds are able to interbreed and create viable hybrids.
The above represent some of the examples of acceptable hybrids that do not require moderation. Members are encouraged to message staff members if they are unsure if their hybrid character would fit within the realms of acceptable character hybrids without moderation. Players are required to petition character hybrids that do not fit within the typical hybrid standards, in order to play them on the site. Dependent on how dissimilar species are, that are used to create the hybrids, players may be asked to modify and/or instead label the character as a "hell-beast". This information may be updated as time progresses to better reflect acceptable (or unacceptable) standardized character hybrids.
Hybrid characters should never be the "maximum" height for their species. Characters should not be the maximum height for the tallest species of their hybrids. Characters who are found to max out their tallest known species may be reviewed for moderation and typically require petitioning through staff for approval. Players are encouraged to make character heights and weights around the median ballpark figure for the mixture of species for their hybrid.
