Bioluminescent mutation

I think it would be awesome if bio-luminescent eyes were a potential mutation! What do you think?

Wasn't it said on either the Discord or on a official post, that the Kypiqs would have glow in the dark eyes or their eyes be reflective to light? Similar to how have cats have it. Does anyone else have a better memory of this?

Reflective is not the same as luminescent - but yes, it was mentioned that Kypiq have eyes that reflect light like a cat's.

I have to wonder how useful glowing eyes would actually be. Where does the light come from? Have you ever held a light source really close to your eyes and try to see by it? I would imagine that glowing eyes would actually make night vision impossible.


Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

Well I never said the trait would be beneficial. But a mutation that is aesthetic isn't entirely negative either. Maybe it just gives you a more graceful presence. Easier to spot in the dark, and a slightly lower than average night vision. Violence isnt the only thing that happens in the dark wink wink

well maybe not in the eyes but on the skin i cant see why not, bio luminescense in nature is used for attracting mates and hunting mostly

Bioluminescent bugs and stuff would be really neat but I'm not sure about eyes tbh
