@Chish: 1) Well, it's rather complicated. See, in Jaguars melanism is caused by a dominant allele, and in Leopards by a recessive allele.

Jaguars and Lions can breed. And there was been at least 1 case of a Black Jaguar who mated with a Lioness, producing a "charcoal-black" female jaglion, and a tan-colored, spotted male jaglion.

So the dominant allele that causes melanism in Jaguars is also dominant over normal lion coloration. But it doesn't seem like lions naturally carry anything that causes melanism, and jaglions are technically a different species IIRC.

2) Meh.

3) Yes, they have some similarity of some sort. But my point is that just because X allusion is, say, a husky, it doesn't mean that if a Faunus alludes to X, it will also be a husky.

You prove that at least most Faunus with confirmed allusion are the same species (or at least share a trait) as their allusion. I'm just saying it's not a definitive.

Also, was Ghira's allusion actually confirmed or is it still speculation? M&K could've been tricking us all this time and Ghira turns out to allude to Mufasa. A badass lion and caring father who is killed by an evil usurper.

Or maybe it's a "double-allusion" thing.....if that is a thing.
