Lycaon (nLyc/LycLyc) (Rare)

Category: Rixixi
Species: Rixixi
Lycaon is a marking similar to that of African Painted Dogs. It has a bottom layer of black and a top layer that can be any color.

  • Lycaon is a double-layered marking. Other markings on the Rixixi should not appear 'between' the top and bottom layers of Lycaon. The bottom layer of Lycaon should be black or off-black (appearing black on the Rixixi's base). The top layer of Lycaon may be any color. The top layer of Lycaon must stay within the bottom layer and cannot touch or go outside the edge of the bottom layer.
  • Lycaon is made up of hard-edged spots scattered around the Rixixi. They can be a mix of large and small spots, but there should be large spots present. The black portion of Lycaon should cover between 30% and 60% of the Rixixi (there is no minimum on the coverage of the any-color spots, but it must be below 60% as it has to stay within the black spots.)
  • Recessive Lycaon can have one color in the any-color spots. Dominant Lycaon may have two colors, which can be in separate color blocks or gradiented together.
  • Markings like Glitter, Lunar, Horizon, and so on can alter the color of the black spots. Splash can add a base coat gradient to either the black spots or the internal any-color spots.
