On this page you can find everything offsprings of Umbru, the Goddess of Moon and Stars, may inherit from her. While some things such as the special marking, mutation and the Mane and Tail can only be inherited and have to be in the geno to be added to your Import, other things such as the special Stripe and eye glow can be added to every official offspring of Umbru.
The following can only be inherited / used by direct offsprings of Umbru:
– Stripe Special Case
– Glowing Eyes
The following can be passed down from generation to generation as long as it is present in the parents’ geno:
– Fangs
– Smoke Mane / Tail
– Cosmos
Special Physical Mutation: Fangs
Fangs is a physical mutation that can be passed down from Umbru or any beast that has it themselves. It can be combined with any other tail or mane mutation.
Special Physical Mutation: Smoke Mane
The Smoke Mane is a physical mutation that can be passed down from Umbru or any beast that has it themselves. It can be combined with any other tail mutation as well as the Fangs mutation. If your beast has inherited the Smoke Mane it will not automatically have the Smoke Tail!
Special Physical Mutation: Smoke Tail
The Smoke Tail is a physical mutation that can be passed down from Umbru or any beast that has it themselves. It can be combined with any other mane mutation as well as the Fangs mutation.
Special Rare Marking: Cosmos
Cosmos is a marking that adds colorful galaxy like patterns on the beasts’ body. There is no restriction on how exactly these patterns have to look like. It can be a simple mixture of different colors with a shooting star and some speckles to imitate stars or imitate a real, existing galaxy. As long as it loosely looks like space it is good to go!
In general, any color except for grays and blacks can be used to create this marking. However, only up to two (2) different ones may be used at a time.
Speckles may be added within the cosmic marking as well, even if the geno does not officially have it. Be careful to not add them in any area Cosmos does not touch, as the marking has to be present in the phenotype for this! Additionally it is allowed to add small “tails” to these speckles to create small shooting stars.
This marking was inspired by auroras, night skies, galaxies, shooting stars and space in general, feel free to take them as inspiration if you have troubles designing your beast!
Additional information for visual presentation of Cosmos in images (the official import not included): Just like you would expect from stars the marking may show various degrees of glowing. The intensity of the glowing, if you want any at all, is entirely up to you!
Relevant to: –

Colors
Cosmos allows for any color to be used no matter the base coat color except blacks and grays. However, you may only use two (2) different colors at a time.
Edges
Cosmos must have either a soft edge or be textured with a soft edge.
Design Notes
Speckles:
– You may add Speckles on top of the Cosmos marking to create a galaxy like look, even if your beast does not have the marking Speckles officially
– Please be careful to make the Speckles small enough so they do not resemble Spotting
– The Speckles may have small tails to resemble shooting stars
– They are also restricted to the Cosmos markings’ area. If your marking goes from butt to mid back you may not add Speckles on the head! (Exception: your beast has Speckles officially in the Pheno)
Imitating galaxies, big shooting starts, etc:
– Are entirely allowed as long as roughly 30% of the original design are still visible
– You’re welcome to have a look at images of auroras, galaxies, shooting stars, night skies, and so on to find inspirations for your design
Combinations with other markings

Ranges
Maximum Range
Cosmos has no distinct maximum range but should not cover more than 70% of the beast.
Minimum Range
Cosmos has no distinct minimum range, but must be present in a noticeable way on the beast.
Good examples:
Special Case: Stripes
If the offspring inherited the Stripe Marking the stripes may glow. However, there are a few regulations:
– Stripes of Umbru’s offsprings may be white
– The stripes cannot replicate those on Umbru (the starry slashes). They must still follow the design guide for Stripe.
– The glow can have a hue, but it must be subtle. No bright neons!
– The glow can fade with the stripes
– It can have a good “radius”, but not too excessive.
The rest is just like the normal Stripes Marking:
Uncommon Marking: Stripes
Good examples:
Misc
The following attributes may be present on any official, direct offspring of Umbru, as they are not written into the official geno.
Glowing eyes
Any direct offspring may have glowing eyes without the use of the item “Blessing of Umbru”. However, the item’s rules still apply:
– You still have to be able to see the lines of the eye underneath the glow.
– It has to be equally distributed around the eye, meaning you cannot create lines or sparks going away from the eye!
– The glow cannot go further than this:
