Sup Lioden! Got a New Suggestion for you!

Basically, for a long time, I've always thought it'd be cool to have a two headed lions. Two headed animals happen plenty in nature. So I figured, why not have a twin headed lion? The mutation Lioden calls "Two Head" is more accurately described as diprosopus, which is two Faces on one head instead two entirely separate heads, as seen here and here. Dicephalus Parapagus Dipus is kind of a mouthful; Just Dicephalus or simply Polycephalus would also be fine.

About the Mutation

KEY:
* Tentative and subject to change.
- Something I'm pretty deadset on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- DPD is not an applicable mutation, so would not have a MOD. It would be bred just like any other non-passable mutation.
- DPD would have the same rarity/occurrence rate as mutations such as OG Claws, Teeth, and Polycaudal, maybe slightly less, but they'd be more common than First Gen Dwarves.
- DPD is a heritable mutation that can pass from both males and females. I'm seeing it with a pass rate of between .5% and 1% to keep the mutation uncommon vs. other passable mutations.
* Since most cases of DPD have been in female animals and people, this mutation would occur more readily in female cubs than male cubs. To preserve the value of the DPD and not have a primal situation (oversaturation of primal studs and subsequent decline in primal value), genders would be locked at birth. This gives some value to male DPD cubs as they could spread the mutation the fastest if kinged, but outright males would be relatively rare. ALTERNATIVELY, the pass rate could be higher in females and lower in males.
- Dicephalic lions would have two personalities. Two of the same personalities would not yield double benefits (You will not get 60% energy for having two Hyperactive personalities on a DPD King). However, two different personalities could (If one head is Fatherly and the other is Candid, they reap both benefits).
- Passive Personality traits such as luck with lone lionesses and effect on the mood of the pride could be enhanced by doubled personalities however.
* DPD females have a slightly higher change of producing Two-Headed lethal cubs than normal.
- One cub litters will never be Dicephalus cubs. In keeping with reality, a DPD cub would occur in a litter of two or greater. Yes it would be possible for two DPDs to occur in a litter of 4 cubs.
- DPD lions could possibly have different eyes, mane colors, and mane shapes. However, Base and Skin color would always be the same.
* DPD lions could pass and inherit double markings since technically they are two individuals.
