Hex Gaoler/Obelisk/Veilspun Visual Guide
Obelisks may be modern breeds with no unique genes of their own, but some genes look unique on them compared to other moderns. Most of them involve the thick, curly mane giving unusual patterns to secondary genes.
Is there any demand for visual gene guides devoted to just the obelisk variant of those genes? I'll make them if people would like to see those genes in every color on obelisks.
Here's some candidates I've found when looking across every modern gene.
Bar/Daub
Daub's effect on the mane is interesting
Fade/Blend
Blend's effect on the mane is interesting
Jaguar/Rosette
Rosette's effect on the mane is interesting
Poison/Toxin
Toxin's effect on the mane is interesting
Skink/Spinner
Spinner's effect on the mane is interesting
Swirl/Marbled
Marbled's effect on the mane is interesting
Runes
The runes emerging from the feet markings are a lot thicker and directly connected, unlike all other breeds
Spines
Unusually, Spines runs all the way down the nose, unlike all other breeds
Genes off the table
I'd include Iridescent/Shimmer because they are abnormally glossy on obelisks, but my Iridescent/Shimmer guide already has obelisks in all colors.Some of the unique looking variants, such as Lionfish/Noxtide, Starmap/Constellation and Filigree are just bugged so I don't want to do those.
What do you guys think? Are any of these genes particularly compelling? If you find any of the primary/secondary combinations interesting, should I leave the primary gene basic so people can focus on the lush mane, the main attraction?
