What's in a marking, anyway? Well, it may surprise you that a lot of players on Lioden will value a lion simply by the markings it contains on its coat! Some markings hold more value than others, and may be found on only a handful of lions throughout the site. If you're interested in seeing what all markings that Lioden has to offer, we highly recommend that you visit the pages that are detailed below!
Note: Due to the amount of markings currently on-site, this page has been split up into sub-categories. It does not contain any of its own marking image information.
Marking Tiers
December's development update in 2018 introduced marking tier visibility for players. Marking tiers already existed within the site's coding, so the developers decided to make this information public for easier understanding and comprehension!
- Tier 0 - Common Markings: Also known as "NCL Markings" or "Wild Markings", these markings are found on game-generated Newly Claimed Lionesses and rolled pride leaders. They can be obtained via the Marking Applicator in the Oasis, the Oasis Customiser tools, Random Marking Applicators, and Total Shuffles.
- Tier 1 - Custom Markings: These markings can be applied via the Marking Applicator in the Oasis, the Oasis Customiser tools, Random Marking Applicators, and Total Shuffles.
- Tier 2 - Raffle Markings: Also known as "Breed-Only Markings" or "Special Markings", these markings originate from raffle lionesses released each week. They cannot be selectively applied and must only be bred down from parents with the markings or randomly obtained with luck from Random Marking Applicators and Total Shuffles.
- Tier 3 - Event Markings: These markings includes April, February, and September event-exclusive NCL markings, July and August event exclusive markings, exclusive NCL markings (Cinnabar, Clay, Copal, and Marigold), and event applicator markings—basically anything that originates from an event can be found in this tier! Some of these markings cannot be selectively applied, while others can. They can be randomly obtained with luck from Random Marking Applicators and Total Shuffles.
- Tier 4 - Rosette Markings: These markings can show up seemingly at random during breedings! They cannot be selectively applied, but can be passed down from parents with these markings, or spontaneously occur during breedings. They can be randomly obtained with luck from Random Marking Applicators and Total Shuffles.
- Tier 5 - Hybrid/Restricted Markings: These markings can only be obtained via first generation hybrids (and their offspring) or Gorilla Enclave/Referral Shop marking applicators. They are blocked from being obtained via Random Marking Applicators and Total Shuffles.
- Tier 6 - RMA-Exclusive Markings: These markings can only be obtained via Random Marking Applicators and Total Shuffles, or passed down from a parent with these markings.
Marking Colours
