Colors
Sleepwalkers are naturally colorful beings, and as such, come in a variety of color combinations. Many Sleepwalkers have been asked about the community's overall view on what is considered beautiful and average. Although there seems to be varying degrees of acceptance with a few outliers, it is wholly agreed on that Monochrome colored Sleepwalkers are not welcome. Why? Well...No one wants to talk about that.
Common colored Sleepwalkers have a wide range of colors that can spread from pastel to bright to dark. However dark colors are usually sparse. Color hues can be anything. Pale bellies faces are considered to be attractive in Sleepwalker standards. The Mane and ear-insides are always the same color. This also goes for the claws and tail orb, which share the same color as well.

Uncommon colored Sleepwalkers color schemes are mostly unified (Meaning, based around a single hue). While not considered more beautiful in Sleepwalker Society, they do cause some heads to turn due to their singular hued bodies. Single color based Sleepwalkers are usually called Luminant Sleepwalkers because they stick out like a bright light. Luminant Sleepwalker color schemes are usually cold color spectrum oriented and can range from Green to Purple. Although their body colors are usually within the same section of the spectrum, their eyes and claws are regularly opposite of their own base colors.

Very Uncommon colored Sleepwalkers with color schemes that are completely on the warm side of the color spectrum are called Radiant Sleepwalkers. These Sleepwalkers are considered quite beautiful as they glimmer and glow when they move. Radiant Sleepwalkers usually have little to no cold colors at all and only have them as accent markings. White is very commonly found on Radiant Sleepwalkers, which only adds to their beauty. Although it's never been proven, the bonded partners of Radiant Sleepwalkers are said to experience feelings of warmth and happiness whenever their familiar is close to them.

Rare colored Sleepwalkers usually have darker or duller base colors than most others. These Sleepwalkers are usually imbued with a side affinity for either Good or Bad luck magic. Sleepwalkers who find themselves blessed with Good Luck magic will have an easier time learning other branches of magic and will experience odds that are almost always in their favor. Sleepwalkers cursed with Bad Luck magic will have a hard time walking straight, finding dream trails, or on occasion, find themselves being shunned by others. Unfortunately for any Sleepwalker with dark base colors, they are not usually considered to be physically attractive, which can put a damper on any romantic relationships they might want to pursue.

Very Rare colored Sleepwalkers are all gorgeous and usually find themselves almost revered by other Sleepwalkers. Their magic is usually very powerful; to see a Half-Rainbow Sleepwalker casting spells is a sight many do not soon forget. Half-Rainbow Sleepwalkers are classified by their quad-color gradients that are usually comprised of 2 warm colors and 2 cold colors. Any more or less than 4 different colors makes them either uncommon or common. Due to their immense beauty, Half-Rainbow Sleepwalkers find no shortage of willing romantic partners to share their long lives with.

Legendary colored Sleepwalkers are blessed with white base coats and full rainbow markings. These Sleepwalkers are the most beautiful in existence and are usually the most powerful magically. Their manes can be rainbow colored or white in most cases, but single color manes are known to occur as well. Mages who have a Rainbow Sleepwalker as their bonded partner and familiar will find it incredibly easy to cast even the most difficult of spells, as these 'Walkers aura is naturally stabilizing and an all around good magical conductor. Since they are considered the most beautiful out of all the Sleepwalkers, Rainbows tend to be more solitary to avoid unwanted attention.

Illegal colored Sleepwalkers are born with either pure white or pure black base coats and grayscale markings accompanied by a single bright hue. Unfortunately, unlike other Sleepwalkers, their magic is, in a way, broken. Due to unknown reasons, Monochrome Sleepwalkers are incapable of casting their own spells or utilizing their magic in any way. This often leads to starvation as it takes magic to open their third eye to see dream trails. Another unfortunate defect is a possibly warped body shell, which can sometimes prevent the Sleepwalker from traversing normally. No one is quite sure what causes these issues, but many believe it is due to partial corruption of the dream before the Sleepwalker can fully develop.
