Incomplete shiny ability listing?
I got a xanthic compy last night and thought I'd look into what the prefix did. Strangely it isn't on the pinned list. Are there any other modifiers that aren't accounted for?

Xanthic is just a colour-- it has no special abilities. The ones listed are the only ones (for now) with extra special extras. :)

It it intentional that only colored shinys are spawning? We've had this mod for two days now, and I haven't seen any with the special ability names (tardis, etc). I think I've only seen ice cream flavor color variants. Thanks!

Curious though, what about descriptors like Bright, Gloomy, Inspired, or Hefty? Are they more obscure descriptors of the color, or just there to add variety? I have seen Bright dinos, and have a Bright Rainbow Pteradon tamed, but haven't really compared it side by side to non-Bright rainbow dinos to see if there is a visual difference. Even then, I can't imagine what Hefty or Inspired would do visually.

Hefty and a few others refer to the stat based variants (more likely to have more levels in a specific stat). See the change notes and do a Ctrl+F for hefty and it'll list all the stat variants.

'Bright' and 'Dreary' are variants of a rainbow palette, and Pastel is their lighter-hearted little sister.

Burning, Skeletal, ect... those are quite rare. By default, I'd say Tardis and such are about 100:1 ratio. You'll find a TON of color-only Shinies, while only rarely finding the ability ones.

(One person on my server found a Burning Rock Elemental and I'm 100% jealous)
