Traits

Suntouched causes the color of at least two points of your dragon to appear lighter than what lies beneath them, a lighter color than the base in the color palette, or white. You can make it subtle as long as it is still visible. No matter what, it should appear as a smooth gradient. The color should be consistent throughout (unless a marking on top of or beneath it is affecting its color).

Texture Rules

It will always have an edge with a smooth gradient. You should not be able to distinguish shapes or solid patches.

Color Rules

Suntouched will always be lighter than what lays beneath it (‘lighter’ refers to value). This may be a layer set to screen or a color lighter than the base scales.
