Moon Rabbits
Name of Species: Moon Rabbits
Baseline Dimension: Moon rabbits dimensions are similar to humans in almost every regard, bar their long ears which replace human ears.
Baseline Appearance: Moon rabbits tend to have more unnatural human hair and eye colors, though there are exceptions depending on ones lineage. Moon rabbits typically have both a set of large bunny ears and/or a little cotton tail, there are a few exceptions where they just have one or the other. Moon rabbits can hide these features, but to them it’s a sense of pride to show them so they typically don’t. Moon Rabbit age is almost impossible to tell based off physical appearance as their bodies age seemingly at random to other species.
Culture/Origin of Species: Moon rabbits trace their origins back to a time where they migrated from the moon to the planet below. This move is the center of a controversy for the record books, as scholars still debate if moon rabbits should be classified as a native species of aliens. Due to the connect the moon shares with the planet, many argue they are native, while many also argue since they aren’t from the planet proper, they are aliens. Regardless of the current classification moon rabbits have been integrated with surface society for a long time.
Culturally moon rabbits have a few misconceptions about them. Folk lore says that they are good at mixing ingredients and cooking, specifically mochi, and that’s it; When, in reality, moon rabbits are compulsion driven inventors and builders who excel at their craft till they become their work. This both helps and hinders their cultural growth, as moon rabbits have created many helpful objects, or wonderful new recipes, or methods to accomplishing goals, but they tend to only care about their own familial groups rather then their species as a whole, since they are so obsessed with creation most of the time. Supposedly it was the moon rabbits who created an elixir that removes the very concept of death from the drinker, but no moon rabbit alive today on the surface would know such a recipe, which is probably for the best.
Despite the misconception about cooking being all they are good at, it does ring true to a degree, moon rabbits are naturally talented chefs created masterful dishes without so much as trying. Being a chef is ingrained in their very mentality, though this doesn’t help stop the misconception about them, due to their natural skill being so high. It also doesn’t help that moon rabbit are naturally secretive about how they complete their “grand” inventions.
Traits:
• Despite the common misconception that moon rabbits are only good at cooking or mixing alchemy ingredients, they are in actuality masterful inventors/builders of all kinds.
• Moon rabbits are naturally nimble with superior leg strength and mobility.
• Perhaps it’s due to the ancient legend of mixing the elixir of life moon rabbits have high health levels.
• Despite having potentially no practice, moon rabbits are excellent chefs and when combined with their inventive nature, they create some of the most unique and flavorful of dishes around, especially involving mochi. Their tea, in particular, is astonishing to sample.
• Moon rabbits have a heightened sense of hearing to the point where they can hear vibrations in the air if all is quiet enough.
• Moon rabbits have a sixth sense for danger, combined with their natural agility they are excellent at escaping harm, becoming annoyingly difficult to catch.
• Moon Rabbits can live for thousands of years naturally, but due to their compulsive nature much of this time can be done doing the same thing.
• Maybe because of the mochi stereotype ringing somewhat true, moon rabbits are proficient in using blunt objects for all sorts of tasks.
Flaws:
• Moon rabbits have compulsions to build or create, and this is present even in the most apathetic of rabbits.
• Moon rabbits easily fall into repetition if they don’t keep experimenting, causing them to become obsessed with whatever their current task is.
• Moon rabbits are naturally secretive of their methods of creation and have a hard time trusting another with those secrets.
• Being around loud noises without something to focus on can be very troublesome for moon rabbits due to their heightened hearing.
