Hey there! Something I absolutely LOVE about Wolvden is seeing that markings can 'mutate' into different, variant shapes. I have been a little disappointed that it isn't here (yet). So, I thought I'd make a suggestion!

What?


Variant marking shapes would result specifically from breeding, and WOULD NOT be able to be RMA'd or applied in any way. The base shapes could come from BO markings and app markings both, and would show up randomly in breeding. I mostly intended this as a way to make applicable event markings more interesting, but this can apply to virtually any mark!

I'll be using white or noctis in all of my examples because they're easiest LMAO but if anybody wants to make their own colored mock-ups, feel free!

How would they work?


So, for example, you could breed a stud with Sunrise Vitiligo to any lioness, right? Well... that marking might have a chance to mutate into a variant mark when it passes to a cub! It could show up as Sunrise Vitiligo Heavy, or Sunrise Vitiligo Light.

These variant markings could pass either their variant shape, or the traditional shape, with pass rates decided by the LD staff.

Perhaps different factors could work into how one gets the variant shapes, too! We will see?

Potential Examples


Keep in mind these are quick mock-ups! That and I'm not all that good at matching LD's marking style LOL o/




This suggestion has 367 supports and 7 NO supports.

Amazing! A really cool idea, love that you featured poor Marozi

Edit: Not really as interested in wolves, and Lioden already takes up a glut of time for me, and the gameplay seemed not divergent enough, so I didn't join Wolvden. But I LOVE the idea of the whole marking variants.

I wonder if it's too much of Wolvden's USP for the idea to come into Lioden, but it would be a meatier game for it!

If Noctis Rumble Heavy was it's own thing (and maybe renamed something else) I think it would be cool, though the overall concept is also neat.

Added a couple more variants of different markings, this time in Noctis!

Thank y'all for the support! ;o;

Massive support! Maybe include some of the more common/tier 0 so they can get some love too and aren't so frowned at and thought worthless. <3

Or could even incorporate some of the current tier 0 marks into this? Example being white blaze potentially spitting out say Tuxedo? Then having tuxedo not be applicable (however I could see a lot of dislike for that, but it was just a thought)

@Gallifrey
That's an interesting thought! I was thinking along similar lines with the cheetah markings, but I think it'd cause too much trouble. Variant marks should probably be all new markings and not include other, already existing, especially applicable marks. ;o;

That's fair! I just remembered a few updates back that they made some common marks into breed only (I think? not 100% but I swear I remember something about that) and figured it'd be fun to expand that

Mane colors. xD Not sure if markings would be as well received! Could happen, though!
