Blessed Traits |

False Wings: sometimes a kirnivaal is born with tufts of fur on their shoulders resembling wings; while they have no ability to move or use them, they function the same as the fur on their fronts legs in that they gather stardust
Wings: very rarely, a kirnivaal will be blessed by Vaa with actual wings; they can vary in size, yet are never found in more than one pair; wings increase a kirnivaal's speed, allowing them to travel fast as comets
Halo Rings: rings can grow above a kirnivaal's head, marking them as blessed as well as of great power; they seem to allow for greater focus in magic
Seraph Ears:

Very rarely, a kirnivaal will survive the death process and become a "neutron star". This state is considered holy and it's said that those who enter it have been blessed by Vaa. Neutron Stars create stardust themselves and it is believed that they have learned the secrets of Vaa. They are beautiful and ethereal, preferring to stay away from all other lifeforms. As such they often take up permanent residence on a planet. They can waste away if they become lost in the "truth". This makes them lose their bodily form, becoming a sort of spirit. Many Neutron Stars prefer this, as the stress on their bodies from the "truth" can be painful. Neutron Stars see Black Holes as arrogant and destructive. They avoid encounters, though it is said that a Neutron Star and Black Hole can combine to create a new kind of kirnivaal.

Very rarely, a kirnivaal will survive the death process and become a "black hole". This state is very different from that of a neutron star and those who enter it are said to be cursed by Beliah. Black Holes devour stardust and become mutated. While some grow to be horrific in appearance, others become beautifully deadly. They have little emotion and as such possess poor judgement, often becoming violent. Black Holes have been known to destroy entire systems in fits of rage and should be handled with caution. If their anger consumes them, they can lose their physical form and become a shadow. Black Holes view Neutron Stars as cowardly and weak, and seek them out for various reasons (most often to destroy them). It is said that a Neutron Star and Black Hole can combine to create a new kind of kirnivaal, though it has never been tried.
