'''Penguins''' are the citizens of ''[[Club Penguin]]''. Along with [[puffle]]s, they comprise the two main species of the multiplayer game.


'''Penguins''' (specifically, Emperor Penguins, species ''Aptenodytes forsteri''{{Citation needed}}) are the main concept of ''[[Club Penguin]]''. Along with [[Puffle]]s, they conform the 2 main species of the multiplayer game. New penguins are "produced"/"made"/"born"/"created" whenever a player creates a new account. Penguins are technically more developed than [[Puffle]]s, since they live in large [[town]]s, have owned many architectural structures throughout the [[Club Penguin Island|land]], and seem to be the dominant species over the frosty location.
Penguins are divided into two main groups: [[Non-Member|non-members]] and [[Membership|members]]. Non-members are penguins who have access to only the basic or common features; whilst members  pay money in order to gain membership and, henceforth, acquire or unlock several new features in their game-play, for example, being able to buy puffles that are not blue or red.

Penguins can come in many [[color]]s and have got varied [[clothing]], especially when it comes to [[Members]]. This also applies to their [[igloo]]s, since members have access to varied architectural types of homes and [[furniture]].

In the game, there is virtually no sexual dimorphism for the penguins; you don't even get to choose a gender for your avatar. In order to show any difference [[member]]s can buy clothes and items, using their [[coin]]s.
==ID==
When a penguin is made, they have an ID number, such as P106231320 or P10375382. This signifies how old the penguin is. If a penguin is made on the English servers, their name would be their ID number if they went on the Spanish servers or any other server in a different language. However, if you log onto the foreign language servers a certain amount of times, your name will be changed from the ID to the actual name. The 100,000,000<sup>th</sup> penguin was made sometime in Fall 2009. Penguins also have a code, which is used by Club Penguin to change anything to do with the penguin account (for example, Polo Field's is 2dc0fb07-ccc0-44dc-b30a-443285b7f5f6).

Penguins are the citizens of Club Penguin. Along with puffles, they comprise the two main species of the multiplayer game.

Penguins are divided into two main groups: non-members and members. Non-members are penguins who have access to only the basic or common features; whilst members pay money in order to gain membership and, henceforth, acquire or unlock several new features in their game-play, for example, being able to buy puffles that are not blue or red.

Appearance

In the game, penguins have a triangle shaped head, with two relatively small eyes. They have big beaks (as opposed to a normal penguin's narrow beak) and do not have eyebrows, except for Cadence, Rockhopper, Gary the Gadget Guy, and Sensei. Penguins can pretend to have eyebrows with the "Big Brow" from the play "The Penguins that Time Forgot" or by buying the Scrooge outfit in the December 2009 and 2010 Penguin Style.

ID

When a penguin is made, they have an ID number, such as P106231320 or P10375382. This signifies how old the penguin is. If a penguin is made on the English servers, their name would be their ID number if they went on the Spanish servers or any other server in a different language. However, if you log onto the foreign language servers a certain amount of times, your name will be changed from the ID to the actual name. The 100,000,000th penguin was made sometime in Fall 2009. Penguins also have a code, which is used by Club Penguin to change anything to do with the penguin account (for example, Polo Field's is 2dc0fb07-ccc0-44dc-b30a-443285b7f5f6).
