Description

MYOS ARE CLOSED AT THIS TIME!! They may open again in the future but right now please do not make a Chimereon MYO! Thank you!!


These are common things that people ask me about in relation to Chimereon MYOs, or certain design things that we see really commonly happen in applications and we always feel really bad asking people to change the art they've already worked really hard on. So hopefully this image helps people understand a little more about Chimereons, and what things are allowed/not allowed for MYO designs! I may add more to this later because I'm sure there was something I forgot about lol. But in the meantime, I hope this helps someone out!

For more information on how you can create your own Chimereon, please refer to this post:

Aw damn, I wish I had read this before creating Mau, I would've been able to execute her design a lot better.

the rules were always listed in the description of the original image, but due to people not reading/not fully understanding/etc i made this to clear some things up.

i think visuals are a little better in helping people understand some of these things instead of just big walls of textΒ  Β XD

I generally feel like working within restrictions allows for a more challenging and enjoyable experience!Β 
Also like real life, animals have a limited amount of trait variations they can show before they are classified as a new species.
Obviously chimereons are fantasy and have wildly impossible variations, but taxonomically you can't just make any critter and call it a Chimereon!
It makes sense for there to be classification restrictions!

hi! please refer to this journal for height restrictions.

nothing smaller than 2 feet or larger than 6'2

REGARDING MYO GUIDELINES/RULES (UPDATED 8/8/18)edit: since the MYO event is open again, we've noticed that people are already breaking the MYO guidelines :') so i decided to repost this as a friendly reminder for everyone.
hello everyone. it's been brought to the admins'/mods' attention that we've had a rather large influx of MYO submissions that do not follow the guidelines. this is a friendly reminder to PLEASE look at the MYO rules and follow them to a T before submitting it so you don't have to change it later. also, always ask questions in the comment section if you are unsure about something. there are many extra design tips and guidelines in the description as well.
Β 
you can join our discord server to get faster answers in the questions chatroom, as well!
also, here is a brief reminder list of things that ARE NOT allowed for a MYO and are uncommon/rare/unusual traits or mutations:
-head horns
-heterochromia
-colored sclera (whites of eyes need to stay white)
-colored teet
