Design Guide

Genetics: Rm_
Locus: Cw | Rm | R​
CwRm = Cowspot, RmR = Merle Roan, nRm/RmRm = Merle Roan

Overview:

• Originally thought to be an odd type of corn spots, this mutated form of Roan presents similarly to Merle in dogs.
• Causes a "double layer" of roaning with patches that cut through one or both layers, being either the base color, half-opacity, or both.
• Most patches should be close to the size of the head, with some bigger or smaller.
• Edges should either be rounded/cut inward, like Overo, or rounded outward (small rounded edges, not large blobs).
• Patches must be substantial in amount and scattered across the body, not focused on just one area.
• Roaning may extend on to the cheek/head, and any patches there should cut all the way through rather than at half-opacity.
• Mane/Tail: No effect
• Skin: No effect
• Eyes: No effect

Interactions:

• May interact with Blotted.

Range:

• Minimum: Numerous patches at least along the top 2/3 of the body from poll to dock.
• Maximum: Numerous patches on the entire body, including the head (except for bridge of nose/muzzle) but excluding the legs.
