Sub Breeds

From The Wajas Wiki
Revision as of 10:40, 9 January 2017 by Tailz (talk | contribs) (Roosters)

There are 14 different types of breeds and many different markings. On top of all this, however, people have created extra sub-breeds. They are wajas, possibly of a specific breed, with a set of distinguishable markings, colors or attributes that make them part of the agenda to become a sub breed.

There are countless amounts of sub breeds and most of them have been carefully created, with different breedings and markings before they are at a finished product, but many of them are constantly shifting and changing as people find things that look better.



Flood

Gravemind, the main flood waja.

Flood wajas are particularly popular, based off of the Flood from the Halo games. The 'Flood' is a parasite that burrows into the chest of a host and changes the body into what's described as a decayed looking monster. Flood wajas are determined by their colors more than anything else, as they can be any breed whatsoever and they can have any markings/mutations, as long as they are mainly within the agenda of what the forum says 'dominant colors' are. The most dominant should be green at all times. Green, brown and black are acceptable, and if used in small amounts, yellow and red are allowed as well. Other colors are only acceptable in the case where they can't be seen, whether they are buried under other markings or so faded that they simply just don't show up. The Flood sub breed and club was started by Mitexi (#11423).

Galaxy

Nebula, the Galaxy Waja Mascot.

One sub breed that is seen a lot would be the Galaxy sub breed. Galaxy wajas are what they say on the tin - Wajas that resemble something you might see in space. They generally have a black base, with blue and purple colors. The only agendas they have are that the waja must have the mud and side stripe markings, and no mutations besides the mane. This sub-breed isn't breed specific, as any breed of Waja is allowed. The breed was originally created by Deirdre9, with the "Galactic Wajas" club being currently run by Kida ⑀

Horse

An Earth horse waja.

Horse Wajas are another commonly found sub-breed. The breed 'specification' states that the wajas must be Earth or Egyptian and they must also be all natural colors, as they are based off of real life horses rather than something from a cartoon. The creator of the breed and/or club is Misteria Fire Wolf.

Earths are generally used for heavy breeds with feathered legs. They are used commonly for horses as thay actually have hooves rather than paws.

Egyptians are used for the daintier breeds, like Thoroughbreds and Arabian horses.

Foxes

A fox Tempest.

Fox wajas are basically wajas that resemble a real life Fox. The 'Fox Breeding Project' has recently been rejuvinated and is as popular as ever. They are generally only found in real life colors, but it isn't uncommon to get oddly colored wajas that have markings that resemble a fox. Usually, they are orange, white and black, and quite often are Tempest or Aerial as they most resemble the body shape of a fox, but they can be many other breeds as well. There is no particular breed specification for the fox wajas.

Sabers

Hitomi, the first Saber waja.

Sabers are the oldest sub breed on Wajas, predating even the site itself. They were available as forum adoptables on Ponyisland before the creation of Wajas as a standalone site.

In order to qualify as full sabers, wajas must have Belly Spots and Back Spots markings along with the Mane, Saber Fangs and Leg Feathers mutations. This makes full saber customs a rarity, because they are obtainable only by use of a Mutation Pear. They can have any color scheme, as long as Back Spots are the darkest color and Belly Spots the lightest. All breeds are admissible but Normal is the most common. Wajas who lack mutations or have extras are known as partial Sabers.


Hitomi is the very first Saber and could be found in Estuko's cave prior to being raffled off and eventually winding up in DragonBlack's possession. The newly revived Saber Wajas Club is being run by DragonBlack, who also owns the club mascot, a full saber custom named Ronin.

Taffy

Laffy Taffy, the original Taffy waja.

Taffy Wajas are one of the more specific breeds. Any waja that wishes to be classed as a Taffy Waja must follow a specific Taffy design, but there is a 'cousin' breed known as Taffy Kin Wajas.

The Taffy Waja must have these markings in this specific order: Zebra, Cheetah, Hood, Large Dorsal Streak, Small Dorsal Streak, and Trident. The Cheetah, Hood, and Large Dorsal Streak must ALWAYS be FFFFFF - Pure white, to stay in the correct spirit of Taffys. They can be any breed, but the vast majority of them are Normal. The Taffy design was originally created by Erienne (1324), with the official Taffy club being currently run by Meghan, and its sister-thread the Taffykin club being run by Cuilean.

Regal Symphony

Pallas, the original Regal Symphony waja.

Regal Symphony Wajas are one of the most recent sub breeds, and like the Taffy Wajas are very specific. Any waja that wishes to be classed as a Regal Symphony Waja must follow a specific Regal Symphony design.

The Regal Symphony Waja must have these markings in this specific order: Giraffe, Belly Swirl, Songbird, Collar, Eye Shadow, Forehead, Chin Spot, Blaze, Wind. They must also have visible Tri Wings. They can be any breed, but a majority of them are Normal. The Regal Symphony design was originally created by Bepo (45825).

Uber

Razzleberry, one of the four original Uber wajas.

Uber wajas are a sub breed that have been around for some time. Like Taffies and Regal Symphonies, their markings and mutations are specific. An Uber must have Brindle, Ritual, Dalmatian, Mud, and visible Butterfly Wings. In customs, these must all be the same colour and non-customs are expected to retain the same appearance and thus must be bred with an Ancient Love Pear which was the only love pear available when the sub breed was created. The Ubers were a joint venture between Thymey and BlueGreenGrey, who came up with design and named it, respectively. Despite being very expensive to make at the time (over 40 CWP per waja because of the high price of Dye Ritual) and the pups being sold for 3 CWP/8 million WC, the design became very popular. Each of their caves houses one half of the 32 Uber customs that they ultimately created. Sadly, BGG passed away December 17, 2012 from heart problems, so any so her half of the customs are no longer breedable, which leads to certain Gen 2 colourations being rare.





Wildsong

Wildsong, the original Wildsong waja.

Wildsong wajas are a sub-breed which have been around for quite a long time, and their popularity often waxes and wanes. Wildsongs can be found in multiple breeds, although Normals are most common. As explained by the creator and propogator of the Wildsong sub-breed, a "perfect" Wildsong waja is one that has the exact same markings as the original Wildsong, at the exact same percents, and in the exact same colors. It must also have the exact same base and eye color, and carry or show all of his mutations. Any additional markings or mutations (including carried) invalidates a waja as a Wildsong. The markings can be in any order, with those marking orders producing a significant visual difference being known as "Marking Mutations", and the waja can be any breed. Anything other than this invalidates a waja from being a part of the Wildsong sub-breed.

A "technical" (abbreviated "techie") Wildsong is one which have perfect markings, colors and percentages, but which show leg feathers, mane or prehistoric horns. The original Wildsong is owned by Wolf loves Wildsong! (32326).

Wolf loves Wildsong! (32326) eventually stopped breeding Wildsongs, and temporarily quit the game of Wajas. According to the notice in their main cave, this decision was due to a large community backlash about the breeding practices used to create Wildsongs (many Wildsongs, to keep within the exact parameters, were inbred). However, with the revival of the Wildsong Club on Wajas, Wolf loves Wildsong! (32326) has since returned to playing again. The current Wildsong Club is run by The Justice Karasu (76942).

Feathers

A full feather waja located on the news post.

The Feathers sub breed is created by Estuko, who can create the only customs with Feathers and Feathers Lines markings. The feathers wajas are a predominantly normal based sub breed. The markings cannot be created via the custom demo, and is not currently released as a dye. As announced on the news by Estuko, "Im sure most of you know about the new subbreed by now. If not, you can Go Here to check it out. The subbreed has exclusive markings on it that you cannot get anywhere else. We're running an experiment to see what everyone can accomplish through breeding! :)" She is encouraging testing the breeding script and occasionally releases generation 2 wajas with the "full feathers" markings in her cave. Besides buying from her cave, the only other way to get a generation 2 "full feather" is by buying them from another user, winning a contest occasionally held by staff, or via the new raffles system. Customer Feathers are sometimes available via site raffles. Site Artist Lynn (#80) runs the feathers sub breed club.

Roosters

The roosters sub breed is created and managed by Estuko. The sub breed features many waja breeds sporting the exclusive Markings Feathers Filling and Feathers Lacing, as well as the exclusive Mutation Rooster Tail, markings and mutations only available on customs created by Estuko. This sub breed was created to continue testing the breeding script and to encourage experimental breeding on the site. Estuko stated, "We are trying to run this one a little differently, there's more things to breed for, specific goals and prizes." The sub breed is centered around a breeding project which Estuko has announced that there will be prizes that include; a trophy, exclusive wallpaper and item set, and other undisclosed prizes. The goal of the project is to breed in two markings at 50% opacity or higher of your choice, while retaining 100% Feathers Lacing and Filling, as well as adding another mutation through breeding while retaining the Rooster Tail. Other specifics can be found in the Guidelines link located below. Unlike the feathers, there are several rooster customs mostly owned by site staff and a few that have been raffled through site raffles. Site staff periodically and randomly releases gen 2 "chicks" in their caves at the price of 200,000WC.



Note: The wiki will not remove links just because the cave is empty, as some mods have stated they are going to reach out and breed with other mods roosters even after the 30 pup limit to continue to add to different gene pools, so there are chances that the cave could potentially have pups in there again. Their sales cave for roosters will remain here until they have officially announced they are no longer selling gen 2 chicks from their cave.
