[NOTE TO THE EC ARTISTS: You can simplify the design if you want, but please do not change the egg's general design, remove the transparency of the baby stage, and the falling scales! Thank you! β€οΈ]First creature suggestion of the year, isn't it? πAnyways, meet the Pixices (pixie + pisces)! As you can tell from the etymology, it's a fairy-like fish creature, who acquired the title of "The River Faes" due to their appearance! ^^I'm aiming to make this creature feel like it's fitting for February, aka Valentine's month! : DOr if not, a simple monthly is also fine :>Art (w/ background): https://www.deviantart.com/shirodrawz/art/Pixices-EggCave-creature-suggestion-943796183Art (w/o background): https://ibb.co/Y36gSvXAbout Pixices EggsThese tiny eggs, even though they're coated in a pretty thick sparkling slimy cover, are very fragile. They're found sticking under the leaves of river plants in the bottom of rivers, but can also be found inside the water bodies of the Egg Cave. If you want to get one, you have to be really careful, or else it'll shatter within seconds!As the species itself has just been recently discovered, The SARC has also recently informed that taking care of a Pixices egg is very difficult. The temperature, moisture, and air density must be regulated in order to keep it healthy.Although, if you manage to take care of your Pixices egg perfectly, you'll be in for a surprise, as the egg then floats above the ground and glows slightly, while the slime cover slowly disappears and the scales inside falls of one by one like glitter....About the Pixices CreatureA newly discovered fish-like species, this peculiar creature seems to be able to flutter in the air like a butterfly with its tail fins...... And breathe oxygen outside the water as well? Weird.Since this creature's appearance is similar to that of a butterfly or a fairy, it has earned the title of "River Faes" amongst the residents of Ark.As the species has just been researched recently, there has been speculations regarding how Pixici (plural form) function or where they come from, but recently, the SARC has discovered a few things about them.The baby state's transparent body is filled with magical energy that supports its body, and as they apparently don't have great eyesight, they use their very sensitive antennae to detect the auras of various things to navigate through the world around them.The adult stage now has scales covering its previously transparent body. It's antennas can now glow in the dark...... And apparently detect emotions as well as auras too? It seems like it has the ability to do a little bit of fairy magic now, which is something no other fish species currently discovered can do...... As a result, many Arkians have speculated that the Pixices actually originated from the Fairy World when some fairies visited Ark and accidentally left some of these creatures' eggs in the rivers along the way, and the research team has concluded that it'll probably help them discover more about the mythical world as well....... Origin theories aside, it seems that the hatched stages seem to leave some vividly colored dust from their tail fins as they flutter in the sky. Nobody still knows what are made of nor what are they for, and theories have sprung from it, ranging from simple land fertilizers, one of the key ingredients to making a love potion, and all the way to a happiness-inducing drug. Whatever is it, said dust is still being intensely researched on by the SARC team currently.#creaturesuggestion#shiroscreatures

@shirothekittehloverNice! I used to see a fish combined with butterfly in another website game. And you combine pisces with pixie! It's more wonderfulPixices is a colorful creature, for me I like the little fish stage very much it's so cute. The final stage is more shining and beautiful

@shirothekittehlover Gorgeous! The baby is extremely cute! I LOVE all the colors. The adult is just so beautiful, adorable lil face, the design on the fins is lovely, and so are the little scales coming off from them. Very sweet and whimsical fishy!

@shirothekittehlover It's really cute! I like the colors of the adult stage's eye and I like how small the baby stage is. We need more tiny creatures like the baby lemac, baby kacki, baby blobbart, etc!
