Description
Femto describes characters that are very extremely small, even smaller than nano. A femto character is defined by their body mass and volume being about 10^-15 that of a normal human-sized character (or even smaller), making the metric prefix "femto" fitting. This implies that their height would be around 10^-5 times the height of a normal human-sized character, so around 10-20 micrometers tall at most.
At this size range, a femto character is about the size of a real-life single cell. An image depicting a femto character on a normal sized character's paw may depict them interacting with single cells of the big character's body, or may depict a pawscape of immense proportional size. While a non-femto nano character may see a paw as a landscape hundreds of meters across, a femto character would see a paw as a giant landscape dozens of kilometers across. A reasonable resolution view of the whole paw would not even show the femto character as a single pixel. Femto characters are usually so small that larger characters cannot see them at all.
