Traits
Angora (Uncommon)
Trait Count - 2
Angora causes the coat of a Beatus to grow longer, and at times, thicker. This is easily visible on their faces and underbellies, as almost all angoras will have some kind of beard, big or small.
Bald (Rare)
Trait Count - 3
A bald Beatus is like a Sphynx cat. They don't grow fur, or at times, they grow a very thin coat. They are prone to sunburn and need specialized riding tack to not irritate their skin.
Designing a Bald Beatus can be tricky at times. The easiest way is to design them with a thin coat, as that changes the design the least. However, you must include more skin than what's on a normal import.
Another way to go about designing a bald Beatus, is to give them no fur what-so-ever. In this manner, their 'coat' is just their skin color. Most white markings will display on a full bald, and some mutations. BA mutations are still in debate about what will and won't show on a full bald coat.
Curly (Uncommon)
Trait Count - 2
Curly causes just that, for a Beatus coat and mane to become curly. This can range from loose curls that are hard to see on their coat, to extremely tight curls. Curly coats are desirable in Beatus that are heavily shown.

Unnatural Headset (Legendary)
Trait Count - 5
Horns aren't a very common sight in BAs, but have begun to be more prevalent in domesticated Beatus'. Almost no wild BAs have been seen with horns, excluding those seen with Fawncy, and even when a wild BA is seen to have horns, they aren't extravagant. Wild Beatus that have horns will often have more basic horns that aid them in survival.
Unnatural Horns are typically only seen in domesticated BAs, this is due to how brightly colored their horns tend to be when unnatural. Horns will be bright and vibrant in color. Color muts DO still go over unnatural horn colors.
A headset is any singular symmetric PAIR of horns located on the head.
Headsets can be connected, either to themselves or to other horns.
