Description
Kivul
Kivul causes dark markings on the body starting with a hood on the head and linear spotting along the body. All kivul markings are noticeably darker than the darkest point on the body. The hood covers the head completely and fades down the neck. At maximum expression, the hood extends fully down the neck and begins fading across the shoulders. Spots form rows down the side of the body beginning from the hood. Infrequently, short chains may begin from the middle or end of the body. Spots may form chains or clusters as long as they remain linear. The ends of the lines may trail off toward the hind legs.

Kivul goes under all natural and mutation white.

A NOTE ABOUT VISUAL GUIDES
Zhoruka visual guides offer general guidelines for colors, patterns, placement of markings, and extension of markings. They are not set in stone, hard rules, but they are fairly true to our design expectations. You are not required to color pick from gradients; they are meant as a starting point for those who may not know what colors to use.
