these Terms of Use are for all my adoptables (open species, random adoptables and closed species!)


In General

If you buy a closed species character by me: "Closed species"means that just Fucal, the creator of this species, has the rights of designing them as long as no guest artists for this species are set. You cannot make your own, just through buying a MYO (Make your own)-slot. You can buy already designed cs characters through auctions or set price adoptables. If you cannot purchase one because of low points/money, then MYO-slots and already designed characters can be won through DTAs, OTAs or Raffles too.
Because it´s a closed species by Fucal, don´t claim this species as your own one.

If you buy an open species character: "open species" means, that you can make your own without paying something, but please follow then the species sheet and don´t use designs which are already existing. Designs maybe are not copyrighted but it´s a question of morals to respect the designs of other users. It´s rude to copy just because you like the design or don´t have own ideas. After designing, please post a link to your character under the reference sheet or tag me, so I can see your beautiful design.

If you buy random creatures: you can do everything you want with them. Because they´re no species by me but "just" random creatures, you can change all things you want or make them your own species.

Rights of owners
By purchasing a closed species adoptable, you are buying partial rights to this specific design. This means, you "own" the character, so you can draw this character without permission from the species owner. You can change the design slightly like color modifications, but not adding traits of higher rarity without asking for permission! It has to have similarities to the original design and the creator of the species has to approve your changes before you can post them. If you want to add traits of different rarity, please contact the species owner, so you can buy a rarity upgrade of your speciex character. You can add a personality, name and gender to your adopted character. If you want to change a lot of things of the design which would not fit to the species itself, then the design will loose the affiliation to the species. The character still belongs to you, but it's no longer part of the species. Then you'll have the rights of a "random creature" buyer".

By purchasing an open species adoptable, you are buying full rights of this design. So you can change all things you want but you have to wait for my approval for the changes before they´re official. But open species does not mean that you can make your own adoptables of this species. You can just design them for yourself or for trading them, but not selling.

Selling
My closed species designs are only for personal use and you cannot re-sell them for a higher price than the one you paid. If you paid commissions of your character and want to sell it, please contact the species owner so a good price can be set. Closed species characters without any extra art cannot be sold for more than the purchasing price. Adoptables from events like DTA or won MYO slots cannot be sold if they come without extra art, you just can trade or gift them. If you bought art for this character, the won character can be sold for the price you paid for the art! Is a closed species character traded or gifted one time, you still can sell it but just for price of the value of art you bought for this character. Because you traded a character of a specific value for this character, you can ask (if you want to trade) for a character + the value of the art you bought, but please not more than the art value! If the character was gifted to you, you just can ask for a character or the money for the art you bought.

If you bought an open species design by me, you just can sell it for the price you paid. If you paid commissions of your character and want to sell it, please contact the species owner so a good price can be set. Open species characters without any extra art cannot be sold for more than the purchasing price. If you didn´t buy the character but designed it (so it was designed by a friend from you as gift), then please don´t sell them just trade them. If you commissioned someone to design your species character, then selling is allowed for the price of the MYO slot + the commission price you paid + the art you bought for this character.

If you bought a random creature by me, you have full rights of selling and price setting.
