There is a rich variety of races available, mostly distiguished by their furpatterns, which will slowly be expanded over time. Zebras are the mostly undomesticated wild equines of the African continent. Due to not having been domesticated, there are less variants of them around. ===== Package forms ===== ^Keyword ^ Contents ^ |Boxed | Contains male and female avatar plus additional material.
