After the Aishan trees had suddenly and furiously bloomed, pollen had started to fall from the sky in never before seen quantities. The sun seemed choked by its presence and the breeze currents seemed to carry it across all of Tendaji.
Curiously enough, the impact of the pollen could be seen in earthlings...
Random earthlings across Tendaji saw cracks and fissures in their skin, shedding as if they had a sunburn. New skin tones shone through from underneath. Almost as if by magic new eye colors and crystal colors emerged with a night's rest. Earthlings changed overnight without regard to their family lineage. Brothers and sisters now sported new colors; mothers and daughters that once looked like spitting images captured the eyes of many with their sudden differences.
What could be made of these changes? The world was in upset, some overjoyed and thrilled at the new colors, others in despair as their self views shifted beneath their feet.
[ Earthlings (and those with earthling blood) have started to suddenly change colors! What does your character make of the changes? Did they change too, or do they just witness the new looks of someone close? Are they fascinated in this sudden new change, or are they in the throws of woe? Let us know how your character handles the change in the world! ]
Color Change Instructions
|| Either at the very beginning of the WE or at the very end, the owner(s) should create a post dedicated to the new colors chosen if they choose to update their palette.
|| Owners do not have to change all of the character's colors, they can opt to change just one, a few, or all.
|| Owners should specifically post which new swatch they would like (no CC, this event is for owners who specifically want new colors for their characters).
|| Characters can only choose new swatches in the race that is already established. (A hybrid with fire skin can ONLY choose fire skin, just a new shade. A hybrid with leaf crystals can ONLY choose leaf crystals, etc.)
|| Aishan hybrids that have earthling colored skin can choose to update their skin tone and the staff will decide whether their fade needs to be updated as well (if applicable). We will pick the fade color best suited to the character, owners only have to pick the base skin tone.
|| ONLY earthling colors can be updated. Aishan and Kahikinan colors are not affected by this event.
|| All updates will be made during the next growth of the character!
|| Characters can update their swatches individually of their families (colors chosen will not affect any other character in the shop).
|| Any breeding moving forward will use these new colors (consider these new swatches new genetics).
|| If you have any questions feel free to reach out to the mule, Ely, or Kana and we can help with anything individual that hasn't been addressed here!Quote: MirinSkin || ██ // ██

Mirin stretched from her low plush cot on the floor. She couldn't imagine the track her life had taken but as Valya stretched next to her her life came into focus.
She had joined the circus.
She looked around at her small tent and grinned from ear to ear. There wasn't much to it yet, the had just a small tent with some pillows and Valya. There was a mirror set on the floor in the corner and a chest with her clothes against the furthest side. She had tried to make it more homey with some things to spruce it up. There was a couple of ferns near the opening, plushy throw pillows around her cot and the rug in the center of the floor. They couldn't have too much with them either, Mirin had learned right after she had joined. They were about to become a traveling troupe and anything they took with them had to be packed back up and dragged by Quhar to their next stop.
They had quite the large caravan. It was really impressive to see them on the move and even more so to see the roadies helping to unload it all and pitch up the big top.
It was excitement and had a flair for the dramatic that Mirin was in love with. She had already met Jisena, and with that her daughter Nedelle. Vaena, Zaeryn, and the others were all - to one degree or another - friendly and welcoming and she felt like she was blending in nicely. She had only been in the circus for a few months now, but she felt like she was getting closer to Nedelle, and they were fast tracking to best friends. Though she wasn't blind. She knew she would never take the place of Zaeryn. They had been friends since they were small kids and Jisena had taken Zaeryn in. Mirin wasn't too clear on the details of what happened to Zaeryn's parents but she assumed it wasn't so good.
She stood from her cot and popped her shoulders during a stretch. It felt good. While Valya was the only sailscale that slept with her, she had her group in the pens outside. She could already hear them rising and stirring with the sun. She hopped in place to shake out the stiffness of sleeping on the cot and stood in front of her mirror.
Her face flashed from confusion to concern, to surprise and then finally to a grin. Maybe the circus life was changing her. She held a hand out to her head, running her fingers through the shorter sides of her new haircut. She didn't know what was going on, but her hair was darker. It was a gray-green almost, she didn't really know what to call it. She was focused on the strands and trying to see if there was any sign of her previous stark white hair color, but she couldn't find a thing.
Then her eyes settled on her cheeks and the idea of it maybe being a prank by the others left her mind. Her crystals were dark. Also with a greenish blue tint to them, very teal inspired. Was it being in matori that was doing it? It wouldn't make much sense. She had never known someone to change colors just because they moved. She had seen people from all over in Matori when she first got there and nobody was 'matori colored' just because of the move.
She touched her crystals and then pulled back the opening to her tent, letting the light shine on them and bounce and glitter. They were good looking that was for sure. She bounced in her place and pulled on her pants for the day. She had to show the others. Maybe they also changed? Maybe they knew what was going on? Mirin didn't know what happened overnight for her to just change colors but she was in love with the changes. They were great! She felt like she stood out even more from the shifters in Jauhar she had left behind. White was such a boring color anyways and you could throw a rock in Jauhar and hit someone with white hair. This - this was unique.
Maybe Zaeryn could tell her what was happening, he did see everything it seemed. She could have him read his cards and tell her.
She pulled on her overshirt and bounded out of the tent, calling to Valya to come with her.
She had to find the others.
