Overview



 So you wanna learn about colors? Well, currently Rat-ARPG has a limited range of colors. All based on colors that occur within real bred rats. The most common of which are Agouti and Black. I could go on about the two but I won't for now. In Rat-APRG we have compressed some of the colors into simpler terms and come up with 'Saturations' for them. 

I will now share them with you, along with the eye color saturations we have. We will be introducing more realistic and unrealistic colors to the group as we progress!


Coat Colors


Agouti


 A rat with Agouti coloration will have a darker gradient on it's back. In real life, undomesticated rats who have not been bred are often either Agouti or Black. In Rat-ARPG it is still a common coloration, but of course, not the only one. Below is the saturation for this color.

Amber


Amber may also take on a hint of burnt sienna. This color is less common in Rat-ARPG. It is based on a real rat coloration. Below is the saturation for this color.

Blue


Blue is more of a grey/blue. It is a compression of the colorations 'sky blue', 'american blue', 'dark blue', ect. It has a large range of saturation due to the many types of blue color a rat may exhibit. It is considered common in Rat-Arpg. Below is the saturation for this color.

White


Finally we have white. As you can see it also dips into grey. White is also used for Albino, but only the lighter side of the saturation and beyond. White is a base color and sometimes a marking color. It is common in Rat-ARPG. Below is the saturation for this color.

Eye Colors


Eye colors here are not realistic. Often rat eyes are black, red, or pink. Though I have seen rat's with blue irises, but it was hard to see since their pupils are large.

Black


There is a very small saturation going on here. Not much though. Black is pretty self-explanatory. Below is the saturation for this color.
