Description  THEY'RE NOT A CLOSED SPECIES

They're a OPEN SPECIES 
A simple guide to showing what they look like and other various information about their kind. 

A detailed guide is in working progress. 


What are Absukians?Absukians are alien sharks that have evolved during the early evolution of their kind. The origin of the Absukian was much more different compared to their current look. They didn't develop mammal ears until later into the evolution.

Absukians from their early stages were described to be alien/fish-like, lacking limbs as well, though they still had some of their shark features, the dorsal fin being the main part of their head. Their appearance grew towards being a mix of humanoid and shark-like still featuring snout and gills.

An Absukian's average height is commonly around 5'3 ft. Maximum height is 6'7ft unless they're a Divine type. Divine Absukians are much taller and can average to 7'0ft - 8'7ft.

Absukians are known to be nudist friendly. They have private spaces opened to those who are nudists, but by law however, must be clothed in public spaces.

Interesting facts about them

  • Absukians are viviparous (live-bearing), they give live birth to pups, baby sharks. 

  • Absukians do not have 3 rows of teeth like normal sharks

  • An Absukian’s skin is covered by tiny flat V-shaped scales called placoid scales, also known as dermal denticles. But their skin is also shiny and almost slippery too according to their evolution, their skin is less sandpapery and somehow smooth.

  • Their eyes have scotopic vision and have tapetum lucidum which allows them to see in the low light created by murky or deep waters­.

  • They have a nictitating membrane which allows them to feed on prey to help protects their eyes.

  • Absukians have Cat-looking eyes

Markings 

Absukian facial and body markings appear in different ways for each region. There's a myriad of markings and not all are the same! The scales that act like neck fluff was a rare trait passed down from ancestry of each region. It can also be a form of armour. 

There are subspecies variations of Absukians. Not only Eastern being the kind, there's Northern, Southern and Western kinds. They all have unique physiques, appearances and sizes. Each region has a unique culture and traditions as well.

Divine Absukians 

Divine Absukians are special Absukians that can only be bought through adopt auctions. You are able to get one through adopts via species creator which is me who designs them.

They're these tall god-like beings called the ‘Divine’ by the Absukian folks, they are seen as deities of Tormicca. They have been spoken through tales, folklores including in children books as well.

Features

All Absukians have five fingers and a thumb, and five toes. They have webbed hands and feet as well like amphibians. They also have claws; their claws are slightly translucent, it can be long or short. They have paw pads on their feet. But sometimes it can be on their hands. A flexible claw on each side of their feet resembles almost velociraptor-like. 

Absukians can come in different body types and sizes. They don’t remain the same body type structure and height, this is the same for Northern, Eastern, Southern and Western subspecies. Absukians can stand with a plantigrade stance or digitigrade stance.

Absukians have a curved large fin tip at the back of their head but not all have it. Some are hidden amongst their hair, some aren't born with it. 

 

Hairstyles

Absukians have appendages on their head that have developed to mimic hair despite having no hair strands due to their evolutionary line. There are a myriad of different types of hairstyles Absukians can have, this has been discovered as the population increased in the eras. They also can dye their hair using a small fruit called a Zimda. The fruit seed contains the dye to dyed appendages to any colour available from each coloured Zimda.

Think of them like Inklings. 

Colours

An Absukian can be any colour. Their appearance ranges and vary from natural, pastel, melanistic, albino etc. Even a rare case of piebald and gradient markings. 

Their flesh can be in different colours, so their tongue, paw-pad feet, webbed parts can be the same colour. Absukians eye colour doesn’t have to match!


Bioluminescence 

All Absukians have bioluminescent tongues, the very major muscular organ. Their tongue is slimy and always seen as shiny looking. But for (baby sharks) pups they do not have glowing tongues until later into their childhood.
