A new gene has been discovered among Maple Island Ponies - the Roe Antler gene! Roe antlers are male exclusive, like Kudu horns, only are much rarer as they only overlap recessive genes. A male-exclusive gene, Roe antlers are shed and regrown annually, and are passed down from sire to colt.

Our new event has finally arrived! Dia and I will be posting Roe stallions throughout the week, after which the gene will be incorporated into regular adopts. Hope you all enjoy ^^

I know MIP's have been kind of quiet lately, so I thought we should spruce things up a bit with a Halloween scavenger hunt! I'll give you a list of clues hinting at spooky images I'd like you to find, and the first 10 to send in a completed scavenger list will win prizes

Prizes include:
1st and 2nd place: A full custom MIP, with the option to apply theme genes (such as reindeer antlers or peacock appaloosa)
3rd to 6th place: A custom MIP from a picture or genotype reference, no rare or theme genes
7th to 10th place: A customized breeding - you can pick the genotype and sex of the foal (note, you must have permission from the owners of the parents in order to claim this prize, any genotype chosen must be a possible outcome given the parents' genotypes)

The hunt starts today and will end on October 31st, or once 10 people have pm'd me a correct list of scavenger hunt items. Do your best and decipher the clues, then link to a picture of what they refer to in the form below and send it to me. I ask that you not share your answers with others, as it is more fun to figure it out for yourself. Enjoy!

When sending your answers, title the pm "MIP Halloween Hunt" to be sure that I see it.

[i]I live in the shadows with all of my friends, and hunt with them only until the night ends;

[b]Clue #3:[/b]
[i]I have many faces, some mean or content, and often show up at this spooky event;
It's thought I'm a trickster, or was in my past, but these days do no more than produce light to cast;

What am I?
[b]Answer:[/b]

[b]Clue #4:[/b]
[i]My people are known to be evil and dark, identified by the diabolical mark;
Our magic extends from a pact oh so foul, but allows us to fly in the night like an owl;

What am I?

[b]Clue #5:[/b]
[i]I do quite a lot for creatures you know, protecting your brain from a damaging blow;
