Appendages (P*) Appendages (P*)This tag describes the numbers of limbs and other appendages on your body. If you have the 'obvious' numbers of limbs for a creature of your species you can skip this tag... but then what's normal?!?!
| A pair of arms |
| A pair of fore-limbs (e.g. limbs that can be used as both arms and legs). |
| A head. Yes! There are creatures with more than one! |
| A crest. Normally on ones head, but you never know! |
| A pair of legs. |
| A pair of paddles, flukes, or fins. |
| A tail. Again, some creatures do have more than one! |
| A pair of horns or spines on the head. |
| A pair of wings. |
| A pair of wings that also act as arms, legs, or fore-limbs. |
| |
| Appendage ends in a webbed hand or foot. For example Pl^ indicates 'Don't call me a frog!' |
| One more than normal. For example Ph+ indicates 'I got ahead in advertising!' |
| One less than normal. For example Pw- indicates 'I have only one wing!' |
| I have many of these. For example Pl! indicates 'I am a millipede!' |
| I have this many of these. For example Pl3l- indicates 'I am an octopus with a missing leg!' |
| Variable. For example Pl~ indicates 'I grow legs when I feel the need for them!' |
You can combine the above options together in any you want. For example Phwlwllt indicates that you have a head, a pair of wings, a pair of legs, a pair of wings, then two pairs of legs, and a tail.
You can also miss out any options that are obvious for your species - most sensible creatures have only one head and a tail!
Notes:
This tag has evolved from the WL tag of the Original Dragon Code. That tag only allowed one to indicate Wings and Legs. It has since been rationalised and expanded a little more!
