Traits

A solid fat tail of any color with short peachy fur.

When drawing this tail, it HAS to be very fat in the middle and taper out at the end.
The area it attaches to the body is very skinny. A good reference to this is a "yellow leopard gecko morph".
This tail is generally about 1.5 to 2.5x the size of the Cloakats size in height. A very hugable tail overall.

This trait stays UNLESS it has these traits, then delete the default trait:
- Skinny Tail
- Flat Tail
- Bush Tail
- Nub
- Exoskeletal Abdomen
- Object Tail


REQUIRED BY DEFAULT UNLESS TAIL SHAPE IS CHANGED.

A thinner or more skinny tail. The tail must still be somewhat fat in the middle with a fox-like shape.

A tail with a tip that resembles a spade, diamond, heart, devils' tail, etc. This is combinable with most traits in this section.

The tail appears to be flat in some capacity generally vertically, sometimes horizontally as well. This can be used to make an aquatic-looking Cloakat.

The tail is curled up like a Pomeranian dog's tail. Usually, the tail bones have natural bends in them that make this curled feature permanent for the Cloakat when it traditionally is not normal for a standard Cloakat.
It can't be forced to uncurl without springing back to the curled shape for too long. The tail needs to be long regardless. It cannot be tiny.

The tail seems to be half the length it usually is, whereas a Cloakat's normal tail is generally twice its size in height. This is a length between NUB and STANDARD size. Can be compared to a full-sized canine tail. This does not mean that the tail is missing/injured, it just means that it is shorter than average size, but much longer than the nub trait. It is not to be flat at its tip, but still tapered to a point, as per the norm of this species' tail!

The Cloakat has a tail that looks rather similar to that of an insect's abdomen. (Can be any bug abdomen within reason)

The Cloakat has an incredibly long tube/cylinder-like tail that’s tipped with a blunted tuft of hair. (A little like Pokémon nickit’s tail tip) Note: This is not the same as the Rapunzel tail trait. Rapunzel is a length-affecting trait while this one has a distinct visual shape and is naturally incredibly long. 

A small tail with a general "water drop" shape to it. It's like the standard tail if it was smooshed against the Cloakat instead of being very long. This tail is not to be confused with a tiny bunny tail as it is still very fat/fluffy in size. Secondary image is Nub + Chilla's Tail.

The Cloakat's tail resembles more of a horse's tail, it can be braided, tied up like a ponytail, or otherwise styled due to its very long hair. Some Cloakat use this tail to hide and store things.

The tail is unusually long. It can usually get as long as about 3-5x the body's length. This trait is stackable with any trait in this section.

The tail seems to fully represent a foreign object while generally sticking to a Cloakats tail shapes previously noted. (I.E saxophone, a stack of fries, a bale of hay, etc.) You can make items attached on the tail or items on/over/engulfing the tail (like a seashell!) OR you can replace the tail entirely with an object (within reason). The object in question has to be large and visible from most angles.
Note: Some items might need an overarching trait stacked with it to be acceptable (like elements or foods as a tail)

The tail can split open with that sort of skin-snapping animation or clean/seamlessly open animation to reveal rows of teeth almost like a Venus flytrap. (Teeth can be any kind that the Cloakat's mouth has).

The Cloakat sports generally up to 3 total tails extra/max. Ask if you have an idea for more than 3 tails as generally they won't exceed 3 total (exceptions can be made!) 

This trait cannot be stacked.

The tail is a blooming flower of your choice. This is generally very large in size and blooms during the day while closing to a bud during the night.
This trait also helps power up nature-based powers due to the photosynthesis it offers to the Cloakat.

The Cloakat sports seaweed in place of its tail. By default, it is the most commonly occurring wiggly-shaped flat green seaweed but there can be other seaweed types if wanted. It can be any canon seaweed color.  The seaweed is restricted to the normal size of the species' tail, but the size can be shortened with the nub tail trait, or lengthened by rapunzel tail trait. It can also have up to 3 tails with the kitsune tail trait.

The Cloakat's tail is engulfed by a huge shell that it can retract into like a home/defense. It can be any shell you want and any color you please. When drawn, please make it clear that the tail is going into the shell. Technically speaking, the shell cannot be removed or changed, but if somehow taken off the Cloakat, the Cloakat has the default tail type.

The tail of the Cloakat is replaced with a potion bottle. By default, this is a circular bottle. The bottle can have any stopper/cork in its top, or none at all. The bottle is usually filled with a liquid of sorts. This liquid type and color can be anything you want it to be. If elemental, it needs elemental traits. The bottle can also have other things in it like a shaker charm, so if you want to make it a konpeito , candy, cookie, or other kind of jar, be my guest and fill it with anything within reason. The jar's content CAN be changed but has to stay within the same theming as the masterlist images reference. (I.E: different candies, different cookies.) Liquids in the bottle need to stay consistent, however, and cannot be changed. You can put labels, tags, and other things on he jar if wanted.

The Cloakat sports a big bushy tail that looks like a garland. It can be any color you please or even multicolored but must look shiny.
The actual tail underneath is as thin as garland rope, so basically you'll feel its tail spine under thin skin if touching the tail under the "fur".

The Cloakat sports a tail that is a snowglobe. Anything can be inside so long as there is "snow" in the globe. The items in the snowglobe cannot change.
