WILD 

Bombyx Mandarina can be found in egg form inside bushes near rare flowers. These can only be picked using a sickle, as they are very fragile. Once gathered, one must be quick to hatch the eggs, for they spoil quite fast once they are separated from the leaves. To hatch the eggs they need to be deposited in crops. Once hatched, the larvaes will start consuming huge amounts of fiber until the reach the pupa phase. After some time, the insect will break free form the pupa, resulting in a beautiful moth. They are an example of sexual dimorphism, as females present more vibrant colors and are bigger than the male counterpart.

DOMESTICATED

Once domesticated, the silkmoth becomes unable to fly or persist outside human care. However, this insect will provide survivors with an efficient production of an unique organic silk and clay. These valuable products are different from the rest, as they can be used to craft new sets of clothing and robust brick buildings. Silk can be gathered from the female moth, while clay is produced by the male.

CLOTHING

Female moths produce an unique silk that can be used to craft new victorian/gothic clothing. This new clothing can be crafted only inside the female moth inventory. The idea for this new sets is to be used as roleplaying clothing, as they don't provide much armor compared to flak sets (although provides a good temperature protection). However, one can level up an exclusive skill for the female moth: the crafting quality. This increases the clothing armor up to chitin tier. With breeding and imprinting this could change pairing it with flak tier. My idea for this new clothes is to look something similar to the Volkihar vampire armor from Skyrim or something similar to victorian fantasy clothes.

 

BUILDING

Male moths on the other hand produce an special paste similar to clay. This can be used to craft new brick structures resembling Victorian Era buildings. The new structures need to be crafted again inside the male moth inventory. In contrast to the crafting quality skill, one can improve the speed production skill allowing to gather more moth clay in faster time. My idea for this new tier is to resemble the Bloodborne building styile, allowing to craft darker and grimmer structure, with long narrow windows, carved doorways and arcs and also, using this new clay with raw metal, being able to craft new styled oil lamposts and fences.
