Fruit Blooms

**Fruit Blooms** are a dragon-equine hybrid creature that can grow fruit from the large fluff, called a Bloom, on the end of their tails. They are typically kind in nature but can be aggressive if threatened. They range from 2 feet at the shoulder from the smallest—the Pygmy—to 5 feet at the shoulders for the tallest—the Standard Fruit Bloom.

All Fruit Blooms can grow fruit from their tails though these fruits and berries are limited to climate and one single type of fruit per being. Fruit Blooms also have very sharp teeth, making them omnivores. They can effectively eat both meat and plants. It is not uncommon for Fruit Blooms to eat their own fruit.

These beings live in settlements (villages, town, cities, etc.) and typically have head authorities to lead them. Their form of government is a monarchy at the top and Lords/Ladies leading the smaller states or regions. Their civilization mostly revolves around farming and working the land, however, in the larger places such as towns and cities it is common for them to have a variety of jobs and professions.

## Standard

The largest of the Fruit Bloom species, they stand 4 to 5 feet at the shoulders. They have powerful legs and have a sturdy build. Their occupations typically consist of farming and hard labour as they're most suited for it. They live in a variety of settlements from villages to large cities.

## Pegasus

Standing 3 feet at the shoulders, Pegasus Fruit Blooms are swift and quick. Their light-weight frame allows them to soar through the sky with ease and they are one of the quickest of the species. They have a variety of occupations but typically stick to soft labour work. When working the land they stick to growing smaller fruits and berries and make some of the best vintners.

## Desert

Slightly smaller than a Pegasus Fruit Bloom but three-times as sturdy. They are tough and typically have gruffer attitudes. They live in smaller villages but tend to travel alone. These Fruit Blooms typically pride themselves as treasure hunters and merchants, however, they may resort to thieving if they find something they really want and can't get it through other means. Desert Fruit Blooms can only grow small desert fruits on their small Blooms.

## Pygmy

The smallest of the Fruit Bloom species, Pygmy Fruit Blooms are quick and sweet. They're the kindest of all the Fruit Bloom species. When it comes to growing fruit they only grow types of berries. Pygmy Fruit Blooms live in hidden villages high in the treetops of dense forests or on the ground in well-camouflaged areas. Their occupations typically include arts such as music and paintings. Their quick and agile flying speeds make them hard to catch for any large predator. All Pygmy Fruit Blooms have wings, however, not all of them have horns.

## Season

Built to withstand the changing of seasons, Season Fruit Blooms change with the year. They share the same heights as Standard, Unicorn, and Pegasus Fruit Blooms depending on their subtypes. Depending on the season they're born in their coats will be certain colours. When the next season comes around their colours begin to change, however, they only change between two seasons. Because their colours change with the seasons they are able to grow fruit in both seasons they represent, unlike other Fruit Blooms that have fruit that only grow at certain times. Their occupations are many and they don't tend to have set professions.

## Snow

Snow Fruit Blooms are about 5-6 feet at the shoulder and keep their sizes no matter the subtype. Despite this, it's obvious when observing them that Pegasus Snow Fruit Blooms have lighter builds than a Unicorn or Standard Snow Fruit Bloom would have. The Snow Fruit Blooms' coats are heavier making them fluffier and insulate them from the harsh cold of the climate that they live in. Their Blooms are rounder, more cloudlike, than silky and smooth. This roundness extends through their chest fluff, manes and tails. Even the fluff of their inner ears and outer ear segments are more round. This subspecies of Fruit Bloom can only grow winter fruits and berries that can grow in cold climates and snow.
