<hr />
<div>'''Original species''' are, in established [[fandom]]s and subcultures, user-made [[character|character species]] generally combining multiple [[animal]] [[character]] into new one (note: Depending on the fandom, not all original species are animals). <br />
<br />
== Types ==<br />
<br />
There are two different kinds of original species, '''closed''' and '''open''':<br />
<br />
* '''Closed species''' are species you must ask or pay ("[[commission]]") the [[artist|creator]] to make or use. <br />
* '''Open species''' are species anyone can make, although some may require you to follow a guideline(s) to be considered one.{{clarify}}<br />
* '''Mixed species''' are simply the anatomical mix of two or more animals, and are less complicated than original species.<br />
* '''Semi-open species''', also known as '''semi-closed species''', are characters that have elements of both closed and open species. This may involve having characteristics available for any person to make a character with, but then have several reserved characteristics that must be purchased. It could also involve a system in which every user gets one free character, but all characters after that must be bought (i.e. [[Protogen]]s and [[Primagen]]s).<br />
<br />
Some of these species can also be [[adoptable|adopted]].<br />
