nMrl | MrlMrl

Trait Count - 3

Merle in BAs somewhat mimics merle in dogs, but with some exceptions. When non-dom[nMrl] it does not mess with eye color, when dom[MrlMrl] eyes will be blue or light blue in color.
nMrl will always be three colors. MrlMrl will always be four colors. Those colors will either be layer light to dark or dark to light and can be lighter or darker than the coat.
- Does not affect skin or hooves

Eye Colors
Blue, Light Blue when MrlMrl

nMrl Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area where expression is not allowed.

MrlMrl Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area where expression is not allowed.

Minimum Merle Expression
The top line is min, the second is med, the third is nMrl max, the last line is MrlMrl max

Sooty Dust smooths out the texturing in sooty and can also prevent dapples from appearing. It adds smaller flecks and spots that stem from the main part of sooty.
- Mane, flight feathers and webbing will be affected by sooty dust.

Sooty Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed. Sooty must show at least 10-15% of the base coat.
The black palettes provided are a simple guide, as different coats will likely have different tinted blacks. Though, these guides do set what the darkest possible natural black can be in terms of hex code. Anything that is darker than the palettes will be asked to be changed.

Flaxen carriers are one of the following;

1. nf on any base
2. ff on a non-Chestnut[ee] base

Trait Count - 0

Silver carriers are only seen on Chestnut[ee] bases

Trait Count - 3

Bider marks cause odd textured areas on dun horses. Bider marks will ALWAYS be textured, even in extremely dense areas.
- Skin color is unaffected by bider marks.
- Bider can be the same color or darker than the barring color

Point Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Orange is the optional max range for DD duns.
Red is the area expression is not allowed.

ff

Trait Count - 1

Flaxen is a gene that is a recessive gene like pearl, meaning it needs two copies to display. Flaxen only affects chestnut-based Beatus and will not show on black or bays.

Flaxen Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed.
The color of the flaxen will depend on the color of the base. Some chestnuts will have a much paler flaxen if they have a pale base.

Silver is the same as flaxen, but for blacks and bays. It lightens the mane to a more silvery color. Mane and wings will always be affected in the same manner.
- 'Hidden' silver is the minimum expression.
- Silver can cause dapples on the topline, this is much more common in blacks than seal bays. Classic and wild bays will not have any dappling.
- All bay variants can have their points affected by silver and be partially silvered out.
- Blacks can sometimes have their coats altered by silver to sometimes appear almost like a smoky black silver.
- When present with white markings, silver must still be visible when next to any white in the mane.

Silver Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed.

Sooty shares a similar concept to roan, but instead of white hairs mixing with the base coat, it's black hairs. Sooty will always be slightly textured and can be textured quite extremely as well.
- Mane, flight feathers and webbing will be affected by sooty.
- Can cause dapples along the edges.

Sooty Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed. Sooty must show at least 10-15% of the base coat.
The black palettes provided are a simple guide, as different coats will likely have different tinted blacks. Though, these guides do set what the darkest possible natural black can be in terms of hex code. Anything that is darker than the palettes will be asked to be changed.

Pangare || nPan | PanPan

Trait Count - 1

Pangare is a modifier that causes the underside, or belly, of a Beatus, to be lighter in color and even more saturated in color. Dominant pangare has a different expression than the non-dominant expression of pangare, this difference is most easily seen in the effect it has on Black-based BAs.
- Heavy pangare expressions need to have some kind of two-tone pangare present, this can be as simple as adding a lighter gradient by the hooves.
- Pangare will always be a soft gradient.

As stated above, pangare on black has a unique expression. In its non-dom form[nPan] will act relatively normal, lightening the undercoat. In its dominant form[PanPan], pangare will act as it does on bay and chestnut base BAs. This means PanPan on black will always be red hairs instead of lighter hairs like in nPan expressions.

Pan Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed.

Minimum Pangare Expression
The palettes provided are a simple guide, as different coats will likely have different variations. These guides do show an approximate as to how saturated pangare can be across different coat colors.

Medium PanPan and Maximum nPan Expression

Maximum PanPan Expression
The Demon is displaying PanPan on Black, which is why it's now red in color. The palettes on the min example will come in handy if you're struggling to get a nice color.

nBry | Bry

Trait Count - 3

Breytir is a coat modifier that completely alters the color of the coat. It has attached modifiers that indicate it's color, red, blue, and yellow being the foundation colors.
Currently, there are three colors present in breytir, red[-r], blue[-b], and yellow[-y]. However, upon breeding and mixing the different colors, more began to pop up, primarily seen as orange[-o], green[-g], and purple[-p]. Even when breeding for these color combos, they are much more rare than the classic colors of breytir.
Breytir acts like a normal gene, so things like countershading and other gene interactions are entirely normal and will be viable. A breytir BA with single cream will have an inherently lighter coat, as dilutions will still do their job of diluting the coat.
- Flight feathers and webbing will match mane color.
- Hoof color tends to be slightly darker than the skin color.
