You may redesign your umin at any time if the umin has a TH profile. 

You may:

• downgrade a trait to any trait of lower rarity (Note: changing to a lower rarity does not grant any slivers)

• remove traits, giving one sliver regardless of the trait. Includes removing colors (removes a rare trait if the umin does not have a relevant multi-color anomalous trait)

• add traits, requiring the appropriate items (see Umin Shops). Includes adding colors (requires adding a rare trait if the umin does not have a relevant multi-color anomalous trait)

• change the design of markings

• switch a color for another for one sliver

• change to umin to a hybrid with appropriate item(s) and permission 

You cannot:

• directly change one trait of the same rarity to another

While it is not a formal requirement, it is asked that you do not entirely change the essence of your umin in a redesign, particularly those with certain aesthetic themes. If the redesign looks to be significantly changing the essence of the umin, Auspice may ask you to reconsider.

To redesign your umin, submit the following form in the Design Updates forum of species-submissions forum in Discord. 

All umin can have one shapeshifted alternate form that resembles their normal umin form with a number of restrictions. You may design the alternate form yourself or ask/commission someone else to do it for you, but you must get it approved by Auspice via DM or in the Discord server. You may change/alter the alt form, but must get it approved again.

Note that if your umin has shapeshifting magic, they have the freedom to take all sorts of "other forms" which can be all shapes, sizes, and colors; these are not tracked. You can, if you wish, still submit an alt form designed according to alt form rules if you want it to be added to the official gallery and ML.

You must have:

• resemblance to the main umin form

• the antennae

• all the same colors

• distinct "body" and "belly" parts with the belly having the same markings

• distinct presence of traits, such as horns/wings/fur and rarer colorings/patterns

• the same number of limbs, no extra appendages

• the size between apple-sized to moving truck-sized (approx. 12 ft by 30 ft)

You can:

• change eye and head shape but mouth must be a curve or line unless you have a different mouth trait; eyes should still be fairly round

• add fingers/toes, but they must be somewhat small unless you have a toes/claws/similar trait

• change length and shape of body and limbs

You cannot:

• change the "material" of the body or add another (i.e. to fur, scales, feathers, etc.)

• add hair or clear extra spikes/horns or such unless you have such traits

You may use the following form when applying for alternate form approval:
