I don't see a lot of Ringlets even on fodder, but most people who visit my profile think Absconce rocks it and I tend to agree!
And I've been dying to show this gembond boy off, who I just recently fully dressed And is my first flight rep:
And another gembond boy, I really like it on coatl males:
And then there's this fandragon of Decim from Death Parade; Smirch was perfect for him! Such an underrated gene.
And my wintery crackle boi, who was supposed to be the bandwagon of Decim until I changed the plan and got the guy above:
Basic/Basic/Crackle, wouldn't take it any other way. And if Basic counts as uncommon too (at least when people aren't too broke to gene) I also have these honorable mentions:
Near (Fandragons tab)
George (Fandragons tab)
Judgement Boys (Fandragons tab)
Chiyuki (Fandragons tab)
Also, I hear some people don't like Lace, but I love it on my first completed G1 project:
And my first completed fandragon has Tiger because I thought it fit his wild personality:
And this girl has Stripes; needed it to make the black wings even darker. Looks like long shadows being cast by her lights.
And Cherub used to be my favorite gene when I first joined so I quickly picked up this pair:
And their son:
Also I feel like Cry/Fac is uncommon on permas. Sure, it's busy, but it can look really nice! (The entire Refreezers lore tab in my lair has it).
Wow, I didn't realize until I made this how much I like unpopular genes lol. Just goes to show any gene can work in the correct circumstances, so go for it!
