Miscellaneous Import Colouring (Information Only)
Mouth Colouring
Mouth areas consist of the teeth, gums and tongue. These should all be natural colours, unless stated in the markings otherwise. These do not have to be the same colourations as the parents.
[Example on left] The only time this does not look natural is when Shine marking is present in the pup's genetics, as it can create a 'glow' from inside its mouth and will never have any effect on the teeth or gums except cast a gradient.
Here are some premade colour palettes which you can choose from should you get stuck at any point:

Masked - Mas (Common)
Masked is a marking which covers the face and the design is completely up to you and creates some uniqueness to the face. The only guide we have for this is to stick to natural like markings. It should not have any unnatural patterns which will be too closely related to Tribal.
[Examples]

Colourations and interactions with other markings:-
As mentioned above, this marking is gives you more freedom to add some unique characteristics to your Mythikan, however we do have a set colour palette for this marking. On top of this, you can always use darker or lighter than the base coat.
[Additional Colour Palette]
All marking modifiers does not affect Masked at all.
Dual Tone - Duo (Uncommon)
Dual Tone is more of a modifier than a marking which affects either a marking or if a standalone marking, it will only affect the base coat colour. However, should you have markings, you can make this modifier affect bother the base coat and markings. As long as this marking is present in the pups geno, you can apply it to any and all markings should you wish. There are only restrictions with this marking if it states it within the other marking guides.
You can either use darker or lighter with your gradients. The gradient mainly consists of linear or radial gradients, however you can mix and match.
Below are some examples of Dual Tone affecting the base coat alone and also some with modifying the markings.
[Examples]
Merle - Mrl (Uncommon)
Merle is a marking which is similar to piebald but it is darker than the base coat but imitates merle dog markings. This should only be one layer and Reversal, Dual Tone nor Spectral can affect this marking. This should create patchy like areas over the body, but should not completely cover the body entirely. Below you can find some examples of this marking.
[Examples]
<hr>
Merle on Sphynx Builds
Whenever this marking appears on Sphynx builds, you have the option to make the marking appear more 'circular' than to be patchy like.
Spectral - Spe (Uncommon)
Spectral is an unsual marking which allows you to make markings use all the colours on the spectral wheel, including ones outside of your base coat ranges, and you do not need any of Mythika's official alphas to have the more saturated colours. This marking does not affect the base coats at all and if this is the only marking within your puppies' geno, then it would not appear at all. However this marking can affect the paw pads, and tongues.
[Examples]
Snowstorm - Sno (Uncommon)
Snowstorm is a very specific marking and 'erases' all markings in the head / neck area of Mythikans and creates a gradient like marking with white 'spots' floating ontop of the gradient area. This will always start from the head as a base minimum and works it way down to the bottom of the neck. The head should be completely white and the gradient area should be on the neck area. Should you try to change this marking, admins can automatically request you to change it without looking over your design.
[Examples]

Colourations and how it affects markings in the head and neck areas:-
Snowstorm uses a very specific colour pallette which you can select from dependant on what base coat colour you can use.

Understanding Snowstorm Marking
Since Snowstorm is a very specific marking that if present in a geno, it will cancel out all markings which are based at the head area, the only exception will be Accents which would lie underneather snowstorm. Here is some tips for how to create the marking if you are struggling. On the left displays the direction the gradient will lay on the body, whilst on the right displays the minimum snowflake can show followed by how much you can 'stretch' out the gradient.

Tabby - Tab (Uncommon)
There are different ways which you can make and this marking is labelled as uncommon rather than common due to its specifics to marking styles. You can only select one out of the listed styles below and if you do not fit the requirements of the styles, you will need to go with the Tabby Cat style by default. Each style works differently so be sure to read about each one carefully.
<hr>
Tabby Cat Style
This marking style imitates the natural swirl like markings which you can find on tabby cats. They should always have some structure over the body and ever appear as random lines over the body.
Colouration and interactions with other markings:
Tabby will always be darker than the base coat and you can use the multiply affect over the body.
[Examples]
<hr>
Spotted Skunk Style
If you have Marked, Accents and Tabby all in a puppies geno, you can achieve the spotted skunk look.
[Examples]
<hr>
Aztec Tabby style
[Examples on left]With Aztec style, it does not create it's own marking but it creates a 'border' to a marking and must be the same colour of the marking you have selected to edge the marking with.
[Examples on right] Only with spectral marking cna this appear as it's own marking colour.
Wilddog - Wdg (Uncommon)
Wilddog marking imitates the markings which cna be found on african wild dogs.
Colouration and interactions with other markings:
darker than lighter colours

Wilddog with Reversal marking
Ror marking
Aura - Aur (Rare)
Aura creates multiple different marking styles, but the bottom line of this marking is it creates smokey like markings over the body.
Calico - Cal (Rare)
Calico is extremely similar to piebald, but creates a 'sheet' of dark grey to black splodges over the body. There is a slight difference between them though, Calico has more area covered and is less random over the body and gives you a free use of Accents marking without requiring it in the pups geno. You can use the example colour palette below if you are struggling with colours, which you can use on any base coat. Defier is the only marking which can appear on calico, however it should follow the stripes under the calico marking to achieve a stripe like marking on the darker areas. Examples below.
Defier - Def (Rare)
Defier is a marking which creates striped markings over the body and has different styles for you to select from. There are multiple styles which you can choose from and you can only pick one style.

Piebald - Pie (Rare)
piebald creates a white 'sheet' over the body with random 'holes' or areas cut out to show the base coat and colours which reside under the body.
Reversal - Rev (Unique)
Reversal is not a marking at all, it is more of a modifier which affects markings in different ways. Which is why we have not specified how it affects markings here as it is all different within each marking. If there is nothing mentioned in the markings or marking styles about reversal, then it won't be applicable to that marking or style. Here is a list of markings which are affected by this modifier:-
