Fantasy Genes and Chimeras

Chimeras: Like Two Horses in One

(working title) What is a chimera? Why do they happen? How to get them in the game. Herd helpers that create chimera horses. The chance of randomly creating a chimera on the create a horse page? How to breed for them, the chances of a chimera and non-chimera throwing another chimera. The chance of two chimeras throwing another chimera. The differences to remember when adding genes to a chimera in the GMT lab vs. the RGS. Merging two horses to create a chimera in the GMT lab. Mention brindle! We still have Brindle Breakout herd helpers. (Difference between DFP horses called brindle and actual chimeras? Give a mention to the old type of chimera vs. the new? Mention the brindle breeder club.)

How Do I Get Fantasy Genes?

RGS

Real money or trade for HBs (what's the current rate? It used to be 10k per $1, I think??, but it's gone up)

Fantasy Genes (Under Construction)

Axiom

The axiom locus currently has 5 alleles: Nexus, Red, Green, Blue, and Wrong Warp. All Axiom genes are available for purchase via the Random Gene Sale. 

Horses with only one copy of an axiom gene will not have any changes to their name (i.e. a chestnut which is heterozygous for any axiom gene will still be called chestnut), but horses which are homozygous for axiom genes will display "ERROR: UNKNOWN ANOMALY" as their color name.

Interaction with Gray

As axiom horses with gray age, the gray will eventually take over the axiom coloring.

Nexus

Nexus splashes a horse with bright stars in its heterozygous form and produces an extremely dramatic effect when homozygous.

Nexus is a limited gene and can usually only be purchased with real money via the Random Gene Sale. The price is $__ for one copy. There are no restrictions on who can breed, buy, or sell horses with nexus. These horses cannot be placed for public sale but can be sold via auction and buddy chat.

This is a small selection of horses with Nexus, use the search to find many more examples!

The darker the horse's base coat color is, the lighter the homozygous Nexus effect is. Notice how the white areas typically turn black on homozygous horses.

Axiom Red, Green, and Blue

When heterozygous, axiom red, green, and blue are visually similar to heterozygous nexus. One copy of red, green, or blue along with one copy of nexus will all appear visually the same as a heterozygous nexus horse.

Het NX and Het RGB.png

Axiom red, green, and blue can also be mixed to create yellow, cyan, and magenta axiom. Like nexus, the lighter your base color the darker the axiom effect is. The darker the base color the lighter the axiom effect is. The amount of color (red/green/blue etc.) is random, as is the location and placement of the stars. Each color of axiom can also have haloing of a complimentary color. For example, cyan with burgundy halo, or green with purple halo. Halo is a side effect of interacting with the base color. Dark bases like black, bay, etc. will have lighter and more vivid halo. Light bases like cremello will have no halo.

Axiom Red

Axiom Red is available to purchase via the Random Gene Sale. The price is $__ for one copy, and it only needs one copy to show. This gene is closed. You will receive a breeder's license for this gene when you purchase it, and you may not share this gene with unlicensed players.

These examples are a very small representation of the expressions that occur. Remember to use the search to see more examples!

The halo effect can be seen clearly on the Liver Red Dun Sabino example below.

Axiom Green

Axiom Green is available to purchase via the Random Gene Sale. The price is $__ for one copy, and it only needs one copy to show. This gene is closed. You will receive a breeder's license for this gene when you purchase it, and you may not share this gene with unlicensed players.

These are only a few examples of the expressions that occur. Remember to use the search to see more examples!

Wrong Warp

Wrong warp is another allele of the axiom gene family. It acts by converting large white areas to black or rarely cyan, and creating torn edges when heterozygous. Homozygous wrong warp horses will display a neat warp effect over the hip. One copy of wrong warp can be paired with one copy of any other axiom allele for some interesting results.

Where does the name come from? Wrong Warp is a term used in many video game speed-running tactics but was originally from Super Mario Brothers.

Wrong Warp is typically only available to purchase via the Random Gene Sale. The price is $__ for one copy, and it only needs one copy to show. This gene is closed. You will receive a breeder's license for this gene when you purchase it, and you may not share this gene with unlicensed players.

These are only a few examples of the expressions that can occur. Remember to use the search to see more examples!

Heterozygous Wrong Warp

Heterozygous wrong warp will only react when white is present. On these two solid-color horses no change is seen. Note: the Silver Classic Champagne is equipped with the Pet Cat from the Halloween Tack Pack.

Warp (3).png

Two examples of heterozygous warp with cyan. Cyan seems to appear mostly when in conjunction with Onyx.

Homozygous Wrong Warp

There is no warping visible on the solid black horse, but when the coats get lighter the warp effect becomes more apparent.

Wrong Warp Combined with Nexus and Axiom Alleles

Wrong Warp with Nexus

Warp combined with nexus follows the same rules as homozygous nexus, with the addition of the warp effect over the hip.

Some more cyan shading can be seen on the white spotted black horse.

Onyx

Onyx is a fantasy variation of the dun gene. It creates bold body stripes and face masks. It needs one copy to show and is reduced in visual intensity by nd1 and dun.

Onyx is available to purchase via the Random Gene Sale. The price is $15 for one copy, and it only needs one copy to show. This gene is closed. You will receive a breeder's license for this gene when you purchase it, and you may not share this gene with unlicensed players.

Onyx horses have the word onyx in the color name. Because Onyx is located on the dun locus, you will find it under Dun on the Pigment Modifiers tab in search.

These images are only a small selection of the possible expressions of onyx. Onyx will also work with other fantasy genes! Please use the search to find more examples.
