Well, we have melanism and albinism, so why not piebaldism?

Oh, right... Some of you don't know what piebaldism is. *ahem*

Piebaldism is kind-of like a weird blend of albinism and normal skin. It's where some parts of the body have missing pigments, resulting in that part being pure white. In animals, it looks like this:

EDIT: I have been told that the dog has a similar disorder called vitiligo; not piebaldism. So, to make up for it, have a cute piebald fawn.

Other than it looking beautiful, it doesn't really affect health.

I think it would look something like this in Niche?

What do you guys think of piebaldism in Niche?

If ravens were art, they would all look like this! 😍

My dad had a pet raven when he was a child.

Seems like a good concept! Perhaps where the nicheling is piebald could be effected by pattern genes?

agree 100%
