Trait Changes

### **Introducing “Trait Changes”**

Trait changes are taking away old traits and putting on new traits! Of course, there are a few rules to this.

* Each type can be applied to a character as many times as you can afford/have the items for.
* Can be adding an additional trait (i.e. adding horns onto a character that previously didn't have them)
* You may edit the traits on existing lines, without needing to provide new ones, should the trait be an easy edit. (If the trait being changed isn't in a difficult position/a spot that would require you to redraw parts of the lines, for example if the tail was tucked underneath the legs, you will need to provide new lines).
* Patreon Exclusive traits will now automatically come with this perk. AKA, you can apply them on existing characters.
* Once you buy an upgraded trait, you can add the new trait onto the character’s resale cost. (So if you upgrade C to L, you get to add +15£ to their cost)
* If someone purchases a trait upgrade, and sells it to you, but you don't like the trait, you can change the character back to their original, free of charge. If you want to change the traits to anything other than what the original design has, you have to purchase the trait changer.
* Can be used on MYO Cubs before they have finished completion
	+ **HOWEVER: The upgraded Trait MUST belong to one of the parents. If you want a trait upgrade that neither parent has, you must purchase the trait upgrade and apply it to new lines AFTER the cub has been made and approved.**
* You may now upgrade to Exotic traits you have in your inventory for free!
	+ You can upgrade to an E trait 6 times in one year, from Jan 1st to Dec 31st. Once you've upgraded to 6 E traits you cannot upgrade to anymore until Jan 1st of the next year.
	+ This also includes E trait wings. If you upgrade to the butterfly wings, this will not affect your once a year wing trait upgrade, meaning you can use these at any time, and still apply L wings on a character.
	+ This does NOT cost extra, however you must buy the trait in order to apply it, you cannot just slap a random exotic on a character.
	+ This does NOT include god traits, hybrid lines, or mutations. If you are unclear if something is a god trait/mutation or not, you can find them in granthrow-monthly-specials, where they will say if they're exotic or a deity/god trait.
	+ TRAIT RULES STILL APPLY. If an E trait says it can only go on one type of species, it must stay that type of species
* You may now upgrade to God traits you have in your inventory for free! (Downgrades also applicable for unwanted god traits). See below for which ones:
	+ Feathered Wings
	+ Extra Eyes
	+ Anubis Scales
	+ Crystalization
	+ Cloven Hooves / Hooves on all 4 legs
	+ Tempest Wings (extra feathered small wings)
	+ Glowing Eyes (all year round god trait)
* Fin Packs can all be done at the same time, you do not have to add one trait from the pack at a time.
* IMPORTANT TO NOTE: If it is found people are buying cheap low rarity custom designs from bee and then later throwing a ton of exotic items on the character (like 3+ upgrades within a brief span of time), this is considered abuse of the new rule changes.
	+ PLEASE DO NOT buy cheap customs just to go and upgrade EVERYTHING for cheaper. If we notice this being a thing, we will charge you more for upgrades and or start charging for designs and colors.

### COST::

5£ per rarity increase.

* 1 increase (C-UC, UC-R, R-L) :: 5£
* 2 increases (C-R, UC-L) :: 10£
* 3 increases (C-L) ::15£

Now what happens if you’re downgrading or keeping the rarity but just changing the trait (otherwise known as a "Lateral Change")?

* 2£ flat rate cost across the board.
