They have a mane made of fur, and scales which cover the rest of the body. Qilin also have tails which resembles that of the Ox. They are mild-mannered, yet proud and aloof. They revere nature as the originator of almost all things holy, and desecration of nature will enrage them. When angry, the mane of a Qilin will burst into flames, as well as any other fur or hair on it's body. The hooves of a Qilin can never touch the ground. Each step will always create a small cloud for the hoof to step on, thus giving the Qilin the ability to fly. Qilin, however, have 2 other forms. That of an elf-like being with antlers, and that of a Qilin tattoo. The tattoo form is 2–dimensional, and Qilin must be touching the exposed skin of a creature to turn into a tattoo. In humanoid form, the Qilin can physically touch the ground, but cannot fly.->
