Traits

Name: Grim

Base Genotype: GR_

Skin Color: If on a chestnut-base horse, the skin tone remains light. If on a black or bay-based horse, the skin tone becomes a dark blue-black.

Eyes: Causes brown eyes to become a medium grey. If the horse has blue eyes from a heavily diluted coat or a single blue eye from white patterns that touch the eye, they will remain blue. If the horse carries other eye color genes such as Arcane or Oracle eyes, those take precedence.

Description: Grim is a mutation originating in the Grimvelder breed, discovered by Jannick Grimvelt in Athelen. Grim causes black pigment to become a shade of dark blue, and red pigment to become warmed to a teal coloration. When the grim coat is diluted by genes such as cream, pearl, or champagne, many different coat colors are possible and range from rose, to mossy greens, to powder blues. The huge color range made possible by the Grim gene makes crossbreeding to Grimvelder horses highly desirable to some. 

Design Guidance: At minimum, black horses may have a slightly blue tint. Bay and chestnut horses may appear as below, which is the most "middle of the road" expression- colors can range from slightly more saturated to slightly less saturated tones of blue and teal. 

As a base coat, Grim interacts with all dilutions. For design purposes, this chart can assist in colorpicking: 

Name: Ember

Base Genotype: EM_

Skin Color: If on a chestnut-base horse, the skin tone remains light. If on a black or bay-based horse, the skin tone becomes a dark purple-black.

Eyes: Causes brown eyes to optionally become a light brown or honey color. If the horse has blue eyes from a heavily diluted coat or a single blue eye from white patterns that touch the eye, they will remain blue. If the horse carries other eye color genes such as Tiger eyes, those take precedence.

Description: Ember is a mutation discovered by the Sulaveri on the Plains of Lithia and is unique to bloodlines tracing back to Sulaveri Plainsrunners. Ember causes black pigment to become a shade of dark and warm purple, and red pigment to become saturated to intense reds and oranges. When the ember coat is diluted by genes such as cream, pearl, or champagne, many different coat colors are possible and may resemble anything from sunsets to fresh lemonade, depending on the combination. The huge color range made possible by the Ember gene makes crossbreeding to Sulaveri Plainsrunners highly desirable to some. 

Design Guidance: At minimum, black horses may have a slightly purple tint. Bay and chestnut horses may appear as below, which is the most "middle of the road" expression- colors can range from slightly more saturated to slightly less saturated tones of orange, red, or purple.
