They don't have sexes or even genders really, so you don't need to have anything specific to get some babies. A luxstruo can even reproduce by itself :)

Ooooh! That would make breeding so interesting. *secretly hoping it happens*

I knoooooow I just gotta figure out a bunch of things, since the only thing that is passed on from parent to child is body traits and bright spot placement.
Like, everything else would be mostly randomly generated. So I gotta make a bunch of numbered lists. I'll figure it out... Maybe... ahaaha ;u;

Sounds like a lot of work but fun too. I'll be keeping an eye out.

Ok, so if y'all wanna help me figure out this breeding thing, here's what ideas I have so far:

- There are two big "families" of light, "Natural" and "Unnatural". Unnatural being man-made.

- First, dice throws to decide bright spot pattern (if there is more than one parent) and, if parent(s) has/ve body traits, if the child inherits them.

- Second, dice throw to see if your luxstruo is a "Sheep" or a "Rebel", meaning whether they grow to like a light source from the same big family as their parent(s) (not sure how that would work with multiple parents, but that is a problem for later lol. Unless you have suggestions. Throw them at me o3o)

And this is where I'm at haha. I would need some sub-categories to go after the two big families, from which all the other stuff would come.

There would be an element of choice to the buyer in the final step, where they could choose the specific light from a sub-sub category they would like to have.

UPDATE;

So, for the natural I've come up with:

- Places
- Animals
- Plants
- Elements (air earth wind fire)

Unnatural has:

- Places
- Objects

And I am out of ideas XD

UPDATE 2:

Figured all that stuff out after all XD
Now for the body traits...

OK. SO.
I HAVE DEVISED A PLAN.
LET ME KNOW IF I'M A REASONABLE PERSON.

Dat light type selection:


Dem pass rates:


*Chemical X would either make pre-existing BCs get really intense/wierd/unique, or make something completely new appear upon the Luxstruo. Could be beautiful, could be hella wierd.

I like it! I'm not sure how the stuff like the humans and weapons would look but it all sounds way cool. Esp that chemical and elementals. I love that stuff. *.*

I kept the categories really vague so that people who ordered breedings would still have a wide range of choice uvu

I know that my sub-categories are limited, since I can't actually write down every single thing in existence, so I kinda counter that with vagueness lol

The "people" category could be anything to do with people. Could be eyes, could be skin, could be jewelry, fabrics, like, whatever XD

Weapons, well, hm...
All sorts of different glinty metals and different explosion/fires/gases. There is some choice XD

That makes sense. I can kinda picture what they might look like. It does give a lot choices. Part of the fun of breeding is not knowing what you will get. So of the two I have: Radium is Sheep Sciences? And Raiju is Rebel Elements if I understand how the categories work?

The bright spot pattern and mutation is totally random or partially based on what parent(s) have?

Nah, sheep and rebel only factor in with breedings.
I look at the parent(s), and then roll a dice to see whether the child's light will be of the same "family" as their parent(s) (natural or unnatural/human).

Bright spot pattern is inherited from parent(s). If there are multiple parents, a random dice throw will decide which one of them passes on their pattern.

Body traits are based on what parent(s) have. Though I guess I should have some probabilities for random drops as well uvu Like, one fourth of the pass rate or something...

Ah I get it!

Yeah the a little bit of random would definitely increase peoples interest. But they are cool enough that we all want them anyway. :D

I don't know if it's part of your plan already or if it's going or how doable it is. But it would be kinda cool to see a mesh of two patterns. Like for example combining two elements or something and it's have swirls or patterns of both colors. Or maybe that would have to be a separate category.

Like undecided luxstruo who really like two types of light? XD
Well, I guess that's what Chemical X is there for lol

They only have one baby at a time (right)?
What if two people wanted to breed theirs together? Is it just up to the owners to decide who the baby is going to or?
Or can we only breed ones we own together?

The amount of babies would probably be a random roll for 1-3 sort of a thing. They can't have too many at a time because it takes up a lot of their light.

I don't mind multiple users wanting to breed their luxstruo together, and, sure, you could split the costs.

I'd leave it to the users to decide who gets which baby.
