HOOD

OVERVIEW

• A dark marking on the front half of the Drakiri, creating broken spots down the length of the body extending onto the tail. Hood resembles the hood marking on a domesticated rat.
  
  

RANGE AND DETAILS

• Hood covers at least the head and part of the neck, but can extend all the way down to the tail in broken spots. 

MIN RANGE

• Range seen in red must be filled

MAX RANGE

• Hood can extend all the way down the shoulder and over the legs (seen in purple)

OTHER RANGE INFO

• Splotching or breaking of color in the light blue area is required.
• A solid back will not be accepted, as it looks too much like Blanket
• Hood does not affect the scales unless Marked Scales is present
• Hood may affect the mane and tail fur anywhere where it touches

COLOR TEXTURE AND GRADIENT

• Hood can be any natural color that is darker than the base coat unless effected by Reversal or Glimmer.

• Hood can have holes around the neck and the face.

• The dark spots on Hood must always touch the back of the Drakiri. 

• Hood must have solid edges. They cannot be blended or blurred.

• Hood can contain a subtle gradient, starting subtly lighter or darker on the head. This gradient must be subtle and not too noticeable. The marking, Gradient, may create a much more noticeable gradient on Hood.
  
  

LAYERING

• Hood can layer above or below any marking, though must always appear beneath Frosted, Fleabitten, Piebald, and Stone.

PHYSICAL MUTATIONS

• Hood currently can effect the following Mutations
  • Cap: Marginal, Secondary, and Primary Covert Feathers and the quills
  • Broken spots: Primaries, Secondaries, and Tertiary, as well as the greater coverts
    • Spots can create broken barring along the feathers stated above
  • Phoenix - Wing Diagram

• For real life examples of the hood marking, look at hood markings on rats.
• Hood can interact with Stroke to create some very interesting mane effects.
