Yup, it's yet another mutation guide. This was meant to be a sort of continuation of the Mutation Masterpost which has gone without an update for a while. As such it will bear some similarities to the Masterpost while I also try to make it different so it isn't an exact word for word copy. This is going to be a huge WIP so please bear with me as I fill this out as best I can. More information and such will be added so it will hopefully be as in-depth as the Masterpost was.

Note: "Passable" in the descriptions is related to if the mutation is naturally passed on to offpspring without the use of items.

Birth mutations are mutations that are visible on the lion from birth. Most of these types of mutations are present for both sexes though there will be exceptions as well.

If you want to view all the full sized images you can view the imgur gallery here.

Achromia
hmqkrxd.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
Achromia lions lack melanin in their skin, coat, and eyes making them white with pink skin and accents along the paws, mane, inside of the ears, and tail.

Lions with this mutation still posses genetic info such as bases, mane shape/color, eye color, and markings and can pass their traits on to their cubs but the mutation covers them on the lion itself. Males can patrol and become king and females can still hunt.

==============================================================================

Blind
9dlgI0c.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
Males cannot become king or patrol. Females cannot hunt.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
Lions with the blind mutation have a milky layer over their eyes which renders them unable to see well, if at all. Despite that they still can have eye colors and pass them on to cubs.

==============================================================================

Bobbed Tail
ZjoShpd.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
Bobbed tailed lions have a nubby stub for a tail and as such lack a tail tip. Males can patrol and become king and females can still hunt.

==============================================================================

Clawless
8YUHdN9.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
Lionesses cannot hunt. Strength stat drastically reduced at birth to 5% of what it would have been originally.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
These lions have the paws but not the pointy parts that are useful for you know, lion related things. While they lack any claws they can still live full and healthy lives and can still patrol or lead a pride but unfortunately, they cannot hunt.

==============================================================================

Dwarfism
z104YCh.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
Lower agility than normal lions. Due to their stubby legs Dwarf lions have half the agility of normal lions.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
Dwarf lions are much smaller than their full sized counterparts with stubby little legs, squat chubby bodies, snaggle teeth, and bugged eyes. Males do not have visible mane shapes but can still pass on that info to their cubs.

Despite their wonky proportions, they can do anything normal lions can including leading a pride, patrolling, breeding/studding, and hunting.

==============================================================================

Eyeless
m4JMo1k.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
Males cannot become king or patrol. Females cannot hunt.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
While Blind lions have non-functioning eyes, Eyeless lions lack them completely! They have no eye openings at all and their skin covers their eye sockets entirely. They can still possess eye colors though and can pass them on to their cubs.

==============================================================================

Folded Ears
hV7WF6o.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
These funny looking lions have weak cartilage in their ears that causes them to flop over themselves instead of standing upright. Males can patrol and become king and females can still hunt.

==============================================================================

Melanism
cwOsoTx.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
The opposite of Achromia. Lions with this condition produce extra melanin in their skin and that gives them their incredibly dark appearance.This mutation covers them entirely apart from their eyes.

Unlike Achromia which all have pink eyes regardless of their genetics, melanistic lions show their eye colors through their mutation. They can pass their markings, bases, and mane genetics onto cubs.

A good way to tell melanistic lions from Onyx based lions is that they have less highlighting on the fur, darker lineart, and are darker in general color. Males can patrol and become king and females can still hunt.

==============================================================================

Patches (Croupe)
AszVPrU.png


Appears at:
Birth.

Primal
wPP7iXk.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
Yes. Males can pass the mutation, females can only inherent it meaning they cannot pass it onto their cubs.
Description:
Lions with this mutation are slightly larger in the case of males and feature a bobbed tail, saber fangs, and a thick ruff around the neck area in both sexes. It appears at birth with newborns appearing the same as newborn bobtails. As they age they develop longer fangs and extra fur around the neck and forelimbs. Males show mane markings and colors and can still patrol and become king. Females can still hunt as well.

==============================================================================

Primal (Felis)
9fjHhd2.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
Yes. Males can pass the mutation, females cannot pass it on but can display it.
Description:
Another variation of the Primal mutation. Lions with this variant have short bunny tails along with a long-lined body and fuzz around the neck, cheeks, and at the tips of the ears. They are about the size of normal lions but have arched backs and heavy muscle mass.
==============================================================================

Primal (Smilus)
fxtUetE.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
Yes. Males can pass the mutation, females cannot even display Smilus let alone pass it on.
Description:
This mutation is a variation of Primal. As cubs and adolescents, they share the same art as Primal with only adult males displaying different art. The variation is slightly smaller than traditional Primal with saber teeth, a longer tail, and longer fur though not as thick. They look more like a lion than their Primal counterparts but the genetic data is the exact same in the game's coding. Smilus males can function like a normal lion can in that they can patrol and become studs but having the Smilus mutation does NOT increase the chances of the trait passing. MOD: Primal will not apply Smilus.

==============================================================================

Polycaudal
BGbUoD7.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
No.

==============================================================================

Toothless


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
Can't hunt, patrol, or lead a pride but they can be broodmothers. Health message appears at birth.
Passable?:
No.
Description:
While most mammals are born without teeth, these lions apparently never got the memo that they were supposed to have them at all! Toothless lions are odd but despite their gummy mouths they are capable of living full, albeit boring, lives.

==============================================================================

Tailless
21DsSbw.png


Appears at:
Birth.
Gameplay effect:
None.
Passable?:
No.
Description:

==============================================================================

Leopon
83Y7zaY.png

I have a tip to make this guide better.....
I see that nothing is said about how the various mutations are acquired or bred, for example dwarfism is ONLY passed via lion balls. maybe include "non-inheritable without lion balls" etc with such mutations?

For example: Using CRB and vlf lions does not increase the chances of passing primal because its NOT the female that passes it, its in-fact the male. so using CRB to specifically try to get one is pointless etc. I see so many people doing this....just a waste on gb
(like dwarfism can only be inherited via lion balls)

I fail to see any mutation guide mentioning any of this?

The goal of this guide was to give more a basic look at all the different mutations rather than go in depth how to breed them all as I figured there were more guides that went into this more in depth and better explained than I could. A lot of things about which mutation chances roll first and what not I never really remembered well and I didn't want to have wrong information about it up so I left these things out.

I'm working on a pride RP on another site and I would like to add the definition and the picture of some mutation so people can understand in my RP if I say that I am an achromia lion or something else. Credit will be given to Lioden and a link to the site will be added for people to go on and join if interested.

I would like to know if I can or can't before doing anything.

I see no reason why not as long as you credit the site accordingly, go on ahead. ^^

Dwarfs are passable, but only with the use of lion scrotums!

"Passable" is in reference to if the mutation passes on it's own WITHOUT scrotums. Lion scrotum is already listed under items so I did not feel it needed to be added as a note to each mutation.
