Tag: tail

The tail is the section at the rear end of an animal's body; in general, the term refers to a distinct, flexible appendage to the torso. It is the part of the body that corresponds roughly to the sacrum and coccyx in mammals, reptiles, and birds. While tails are primarily a feature of vertebrates, some invertebrates including scorpions and springtails, as well as snails and slugs, have tail-like appendages that are sometimes referred to as tails.

A character with an extra tail has at least one more tail than would normally be expected of their species; for tagging purposes, only extra tails are taggable. Humanoid species, including devils, humanoid aliens, and beast people (such as cat people, e.g. Sinon), are all expected to have zero tails, and any tails they may have are taggable; meanwhile, animals (including anthropomorphic animals, such as Cait Sith or Toshi) that naturally have one tail (such as cats; note that Cait Sith and Toshi are cats) should only be tagged if they have at least two tails.
