====== Species Owner ======

Species Owner is an individual that has moderator rights to adjust values that extend beyond the [[species_overriding|Species Overriding]] and as such should exercise discretion in adjusting since changes affect all profiles of that species. Species Owners currently are defined at the time of species creation; moderation of the species is accessible from the main menu of the HUD.

Values that currently can be moderated are:
  * Ovulation Cycle : the amount of time before ovum is made available for pregnancy
  * Ovulation Count : the number of ovum generated at the beginning of the cycle
  * Ovulation Period : the duration which the ovum lasts before expiring
  * Gestation Period : the duration an embryo requires before laboring
  * Growth Period : the duration for a profile to become full adult
  * Uterus Size : the size of the uterus in milliliters which also defines initial penis size
  * Embryo Size : the size of embryo before laboring
  * Embryo Type : either viviparous or oviparous birth
  * Species Stats : defines maximum stat values once reaching adult (see below)

===== Species Stats =====
Stats are represented with percentages but their implementation is more involved than simply increasing or decreasing by a percentage. All stats are represented with points, the default being 1000 for each stat for every species as a baseline value. The baseline should be considered the average human expectation for vitality, defense, arousal, etc... vaguely meaning to use sensible values.

Values that currently can be moderated are:
  * Vitality
  * Strength
  * Defense
  * Arousal
  * Essence
  * Conscious

An individual's stats can be affect by external sources using the aforementioned point value system; having any stat too low or too high will affect other stats and how AnE responds.
