Description
This will be randomized or raffled to a anyone who comments the below the following:Tell me why you enjoy taums, what makes taums fun for you, what taums have helped you with, or what taums helps you with?
This was a suggestion for a black hole taum but i didn't feel like it would be right to sell such a beautiful wonder that the universe has created...I know it sounds a little silly. I really adore space, I love the idea of exploration of space. Its beautiful, its inspiring, its...more than I will ever be able to touch in my lifetime.
If you comment i'll add you into the randomizer and one lucky peep will win this design.
There's no price once you win, this will just be yours to enjoy in short. Randomizer will be in a few days. Dunno when.
Winner:
What are taums?Taums are avian monsters that have two mouths; one is a beak, which can be inspired by the beak of any bird, and the other is a toothy mouth inspired by that of any beast, from bear-like fangs and boar tusks to rows of shark teeth. They have thick arms that end in bear-like claws, which can slice through the toughest of materials (e.g. dragon scales, metal, diamond). Underneath the big claws are dexterous human-like hands that can allow the taum to grasp onto objects. Their body type and structure is similar to that that of a human, including their legs and feet. They can run in a bipedal stance if preferred, but for speed they will often run on all fours.
Their purpose is very strange one: it is to find a place where they belong. Many are hermits, traveling from worlds, planes, dimensions, and space to find somewhere that is just perfect for them. At birth they will find themselves in a random place – it may or may not be the perfect place, but it’s always the beginning.
Since the way they are capable of traveling is a bit unconventional, the theory of parallel universes doesn’t work with taums. While there may be different versions of the same humans, animals, and places in different parallel universes, no such duplication can occur with taums. There is always only one of each individual taum, all across the dimensions and planes. No copies of an individual can exist.

This is late, and I don't mind. I want to answer your questions!!!
Tell me why you enjoy taums?
Um duh? They are adorable birbs. I don't normally levitate towards bird species but taums draws me in. It's such a neat combo of animals. I love how they are bird-like, but they also have fur and cute lil ears and claws. I also love how they maintain some human characteristics. Their feets and their hands are so human. And they can transform into humans or other things like dinos. It's just so cool. I love how diverse the aesthetics are for this species as well. There are so many different shapes and colors and even materials. NO two look the same. There is no limit to what your taum can look like save for the very few species characteristics rules. Your loose rules allow for so much freedom and creativity! I love it. The fact that the rules are relaxed, there's freedom to change the designs, and alternate forms exist goes to show HOW MUCH YOU CARE ABOUT MAKING YOUR TAUM MEMBERS HAPPY! That's 100% your main concern. You want your fans to enjoy their taums. You genuinely want everyone to enjoy your species and everything you do is to try to achieve that goal. It's so selfless and caring. And I LOVE being a part of the taum species because of that. That's the main reason I've stayed. It's because you're such a good caring person and you've allowed me to mold my taums to fit my preferences and stories. SO much creativity emanates from taums. Limitless possibilities & kindness & care. <3
What makes taums fun for you?
I love how we can make them our own. Not only are the designs free to change and mold into your own, but so is their world and lore. You have a very simple lore, and you've developed the lore to allow for so many different world possibilities. Taums could live underwater or on another planet or in space or where ever! They can be magical, nor not. We can create scifi space epics, high fantasy campaigns, or cute domestic farm life stories with our taums! For someone who's main interest is developing stories for their characters, I am so grateful for this aspect of the species and it is the most-fun aspect of them in my opinion. I spend a majority of my time with taums trying to design their personalities, backgrounds, relationships, and stories.
I also enjoy the events that motivate creativity and art creation. Events with goals and incentives to defeat something or win prizes are ALWAYS so fun. And I find that I produce a lot of artwork because of these events. You always try to come up with ways to make your group more interactive and fun. And I'm sure many taum fans appreciate this, I know I do.
What taums have helped you with, or what taums helps you with?
Taums help me with thinking outside of the box as far as creativity goes. I find that a lot of my taum artworks are more interesting and thoughtful. I think it's because the species design is so unique and "out-there" that I don't feel the need to draw them in a normal scenario or scene. I am so connected with their personalities and stories that I tend to do more interpretive artwork? I try to depict a character's temptation toward the sea or some other weird scenario. And taums are the first characters that I've EVER drawn the stories and backgrounds of. I have the taum mama challenge to thank for this. I try to use the taum mama challenge to portray the taum's story, background, and personality. I don't normally do that sort of thing for arpg prompts... it's just drawing a character hunting or digging. The taum event prompts always allow for creativity and open-ended interpretation. The prompts are general or lay out a particular style requirement, but otherwise the subject matter is completely up to you, and that's when I get to fit my stories into the artwork. "Draw your character enjoying spring" or "Draw a monochrome or crosshatch" The subject matter can be whatever we want! And the style requirements of the taum mama challenge is so fantastic. I must say. That challenge sets interesting requirements that force me to explore different styles and techniques that I end up LOVING and wanting to do more.
So in all... Taums has helped me explore my stories and expand my creativity and skills. I see the taum species as a blank canvas that I can do anything with. I can make the stories and designs all my own. And the founder is extremely supportive, caring, and concerned about her member's happiness. All these factors combined results in a group that's extremely rare and unique that keeps me motivated and coming back for more. <3

How adorable! I was instantly drawn in by the darkness and sudden burst of color. Tautms are somewhat new to me as I had never seen one until recently when I first started watching your work; I guess what I like so much about them is their complexity and yet simple beauty all at the same time!

Taums are a fun creature design to me, but also a wonderful community and, above all else, tied to you and your generosity. I think it's beautiful that you let us have a piece of yourself with each taum, and it really goes toward making us all feel like part of one big family, with you at the center. You are willing to go above and beyond for us, your taumlets, and that is truly beautiful and special. And it's humbling and heartwarming to be a part of it.

I personally adore this species because of the Concept itself. I just love the idea and story behind them. And I love creepy things, most Taums are totally up my alley with their two mouths and claws or just the designs in general. Others are just very elegant and beautiful, but I also like the cute ones, the designs in general are just very unique and beautiful. Another thing I like about the group is all the events and the collaboration with the community. Currently I am unfortunately very busy with school so I can't draw much and I am not able to write a lot in the Discord, but I still remember hours of writing in there. It was such a great time and I hope that after the exams are over I can experience these long talks again.
And as an answer to the question what they help me with, I can definitely say they help me when I'm down. If I feel sad or stressed and I have enough time for a little sketch I sketch my Taum and afterwards I feel better again. He is just really fun to draw, but not only him, also the Taums I am drawing for a commission! I enjoy to draw their designs and concept.

Man I've seen taums around for suuuuuch a long time, they're really unique and diverse plus the events and challenges make you reach out to other art forms and styles that you may not be used to, its all quite enjoyable and lax, the people and group alike. I may not be the most active artist ever but man would I love one of these little critters to doodle myself ahah, thank you so much for the opportunity!

Taums have always been a wonderful concept I've admired, each one being so unique and while cute and harmless on the surface these beasties have those splendid rows of chompers that delight me. I enjoy that they are not limited to rarity restrictions like most other creatures in CS, they come as they are, teeth, fur, cute faces and all. This also shows that you can make something a community can enjoy while not using the cookie cutter system you see everyday. Taums do this well and the community seems so very friendly and active, I hope to get a Taum and join one day. ouo

I honestly love this species because of the creative freedom that a user can have in the species. The many stories that lie in each taum gives them a better look and helps users keep them longer than what I see in other species. Favorite taum type is, well, dire taums. The large size and sheer animalistic behavior they show is just amazing. You can do a lot with the regular size though (hint hint, might use this for the custaum!). This species is absolutely incredible, and I love drawing Valence. Thank you Cyn!

I just love how you made them so god dam cute, oh lord they are cute! I all ways wanted one from the start, but family and money have been on a balance. I've all ways loved the Pillow taums, with the ball of fluff that runs around with large hands lmao. Also, Dire taums are scary but cute at the same time OWO!!

I love the way they're (often) big, monstrous and scary looking but are just looking for a place to call home and love. It's always been an aesthetic of mine.
I can sum up what makes taums fun for me and help/ed me with by just the community alone. I've met so so many nice, amazing people in the taum discord and even though I come and go and stay quiet a lot I always feel welcome there.
This is really gorgeous though Cyn! I'm right there with you on the space stuff, space is pretty much one of my favorite things. Thank you so much for making this and sharing it with us!

I friggin' love big monsters and the fact that they have both human hands and claws
makes them perfect (also the beak and huge mouth combo!)
And now that you made a monochrome and orange taum daaamnn this is perfect!
They have a heart of void but a head crowned with light. Is pretty interesting.

Taums have helped me with art, specially with painting. Their designs are also so unique with each taum, I just get so inspired to continue with my art goals when I see something from you or from taums, and Jr, one of my taums, is probs one of the things I treasure the most lol. He is so special to me because of what I learned making art of him. In conclusion, they simply are just very inspiring and helped me keep going with art even in the times I've felt I'm poppoo at designing and painting, because I see those designs and paints and just keep telling to my self that one day I'll be as good if not better as you and all those artists I love out there.

taums are honestly such a cool species, they have a unique, incredibly design and concept idea. the whole species is incredibly well thought out. their whole purpose to find a place where they belong? i love that - it seems so philosophical and a really cool idea to base a species around. their design is also so cute!
i'd say taums help me to find creativity and inspire me! many of them have very impressive designs, and art, and whenever is see it, it inspires me to draw as well. i love them so much and would love to have one of my own.

I have always watched and admired Taums. Always missed little chances here and there to grab one, but on my very first art account I had come across them and instantly fell in love with the species and community. When I found them I was having a rough time in my life and the more I looked at the different Taums, how nice people in the community were and how no two Taums ever appeared the same in many ways (different bodies, colors, traits) and it really touched something in my damaged soul at that time. Honestly had I not seen these fellas when I did I do not think I would've continued my art to this day.
I know it's odd for some to imagine but it was so helpful to just see these fellas exist

I love taums a lot, they haven't helped me with anything yet as I'm so new but I'm so sure they will, the community seems so nice and welcoming. But I love taums because they're so versatile, the fact that taums can look like almost anything is really cool to me, plus I love their anatomy, so soft n squishy but with big mouths, which are, my favourite.
I also love space too! ;; it's a big favourite in terms of things I overall adore, and someday I hope I can go and venture to far out places to stare at the night sky <3
thank you for doing this! And I hope whoever gets the taum loves them endlessly <3

Ever since I first saw a taum(I think it may have been Happy actually ahah) I've really loved them and it's hard for me to explain exactly why. Looking at my gallery it's obviously not the type of thing I draw most of the time but they struck a cord in my heart. Whenever I look at my taum or draw them, I feel happy and comfortable somehow.
Even when taums are scary, they are still also somehow cute and I want to hug them all. I also really enjoy the concept of them, how they search all over existence to find the perfect place for them, and are all so unique and different.
The community is also very friendly and relaxed, and I feel much more welcome than in other species groups I have attempted to be a part of.
This taum specifically is really adorable and I love space too, it's so cool to think about how much is out there and all that we still haven't seen. Humans have been around for so long and only recently we are finally able to see an image of a black hole.

I absolutely love how unique every taum is from each other. They can be similar to an owl bear, or look completely out of this world, like a swan that I saw one time. With the lore of only one type of taum in the entire multiverse, if parallel universes exist. It makes me feel as though my taum, and everyone else's taum, is special (a bit silly). The community surrounding them as well is so nice, fun, and creative, with so much beautiful art. Hopefully, I can see a suit of one of these boyos.
