Text Commands
A HUD is included with this avatar to facilitate easy manipulation of certain facial and body features and movements. However, for those that do not wish to use a HUD, or who simply want to create create gestures which can alter features of their avatar, most functions also have corresponding voice commands associated with them. These can either be typed in the chat window as normal text, or placed into gestures to add facial animation to them. All commands are spoken on channel 1, so it is important to include the "/1" before each command, otherwise the avatar will not respond.
/1 ears <up/down/droop> (example: typing "/1 ears up" would set the avatar ears to an alert position.)
/1 brow <normal/scowl/quirk>
/1 muzzle <normal/frown>
/1 sclera <l/r> <color> (sets either the left or right background color for the eyes. For example, "/1 sclera l pink" would set the left eye background color to pink, were typing "/1 sclera r pink" would set the right background pink instead. The following colors are available: pink, sanguine, grey, green, black, brown, purple, and orange.
/1 iris <l/r> <color> (Roughly the same as the sclera command, except colors the irises. the following colors are available: teal, blue, green, dirtypurple, orange, red, yellow, pink, lime, white, purple, and black.
/1 tongue <short/long>
/1 tail <wag/occasional/none>

[edit]
Well, I still have the NC that was made when the Crux came out two years ago. Crux are Genderless and insane, by rule, so it says. But in my opinion, a crux is simply what it is defined to be. Crux literally means "A puzzling thing" I doubt any two crux will be alike.
Malluch's Original Crux drawings before he made them in Second Life?[edit]
I'm trying to find some of Malluch's old work before they ever made the first Crux in Second Life. The style was considerably different, and dispite by best efforts searching the internet I can't seem to find them. I know Malluch drew them on more than one occasion before SL. 98.237.32.141 09:31, 19 August 2012 (EDT)
LamiCru[edit]
This person has been trying to edit the Crux (species) page to add themself as a co-creator of the species this is not true in any way shape or form - have reverted all edits back to GreenReapers From Dec 2014 as this was the last legit update to the page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by FluxCapacitor (talk • contribs) 11:42, 29 January 2017 (EST) .
- I wikified LamiCru but it needs more attention at some point. Their DA account dates from mid-2016, although they appear to have a VK account somewhere as well. --GreenReaper(talk) 17:29, 5 February 2017 (EST)
