Description
Mutations in Krokau can be subtle, but many are more extreme! Unlike traits, these adhere to a rarity system. Individuals with mutations are not a sub-species, and sub-species can have mutations (though they may be more limited.) Some traits can be combined. Colored sclera and shaped pupils, for example! However not all mutations can co-exist. Common sense is enough to discern most impossible combos but any special ones will be mentioned below.

For color mutations please see this sheet:

Eyes - While some are very drastic changes, these mutations do not affect the vision of the Krokau. Changes to the shape or bleed of the pupil and iris do not lower vision nor do any of the mutations improve it above others. Even in multi-eyed individuals only two eyes are ever active at any given time!

Legs - Two of these mutations can actually give a Krokau advantages. Sickles can be used in tearing food while pulling with the jaw and zygodactyl feet are excellent for tree-savvy Krokau. A silkiefoot's back toes are fused before the final joint.

Tongues - Serpent tongued Krokau can smell just as well with their tongue as they do their nose with the additional benefit of tracking direction more efficiently than a blunt forked tongue. The prehensile tongue is a boon to any Krokau with it. It is strong, maneuverable, and stickier than other tongue types.

Venoms and Breath - Most Krokau are mildly venomous. They secrete this venom from glands along the jaw and it floats free in their saliva. As a result a fearful or hunting Krokau tends to salivate profusely. Regular venom causes extreme pain but is not deadly in most doses. Ichor venom is viscous, concentrated and over-produced and is much more dangerous as a result! The only venomless Krokau are those who breath Fire.

Teeth - Sheer toothed Krokau tend to lean more toward the plant side of their omnivorous diet, and are the only Krokau who can graze. On the opposite side of the spectrum crusher toothed Krokau have incredible interlocking grip that allows them to hold on tight to prey for a battle of endurance.

Face - Nearly all facial mutations are purely decorative, other than the fact a sharp bit is still a sharp bit and can be used for stabbing.

Limbs - While very rare, Krokau do have occurences of additional limbs that can go so far as to completely re-orient their body type or habits. Winged individuals tend to establish larger territories and feed at higher elevations. Taur individuals have longer spines and are capable of walking upright but they take to the quadrupedal lifestyle with ease. Where multiple heads are involved each head is their own individual Krokau but they share operation of the body.

Are there more mutations out there yet to be discovered? This is likely! New mutations will not be added to this sheet however. They will be given their own when enough discoveries have accrued.
