Kotomo (species)

Kotomo are a group of creatures present in the titular Kotomo series that are divided into a myriad number of species and subspecies, capable of transforming into ascended states through a genetic process known as Advancement. Kotomo are regularly trained by the denizens of the Kotomo world, leading to the birth of a society that has a heavy symbiotic relationship between the Kotomo and humans.
==Description==
While the basic appearance of a Kotomo can vary incredibly wildly between species, there exists a basic species categorization tree currently consisting of 17 "Types", each referring to qualities associated with the species. A Kotomo can either be Monotype or Bitype, referring to having 1 or 2 type classifications tied to it. The current types consist of , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , and .
Regardless of Type, all Kotomo have the ability to channel the force known as V-Energy, which is itself created by the presence of a highly powerful Kotomo known as Valia. By utilizing V-Energy, Kotomo are able to perform incredible feats of magical power and enhance their physical capabilities, as well as under go the Advancement process that helps them grow and mature. It is also through the use of V-Energy that Kotomo are able to bond with their human companions, letting them act in sync with one another; unfortunately, without the presence of V-Energy, a Kotomo's life force begins to drain.
Common traits among Kotomo include a sense of curiosity and playful attitude, as well as being able to connect well with humans who have similar hearts to their own. As a result, Kotomo much be convinced to join potential trainers, be it through trial of combat or by persuading them with gifts of kindness.

==Trivia==
*The name Kotomo is derived from a portmanteau of the Japanese heiko tomo, translating to "Parallel Friend". This is similar in structure to the Pocket Monster portmanteau in the Pokmon name.
*While all Kotomo names are provided in canon by the player character, each one also has a name written in some form of intelligible script that is seen upon first encounter with a new species. This is implied to be the actual native name for the Kotomo within the society of the Kotomo world, with the translated names being inspired by physical appearance alone.
