I'm a stickler for having specific breeds for my characters, I like that the one word can define their characteristics, and that I can use that as a title for them occasionally.
With how muddled BQ bloodlines become, and considering the hassle it is to dig through every single ancestor's breed to just come up with a mouthful that essentially means "mut," I have ended up with many hybrid horses, who, in my brain, are all weird, blobby, characteristicless monsters.
What would the chances be if we could assign a breed to a character who's breed is "hybrid" - or if that's too lax, whose parents and grandparents were all hybrids too? I think it introduces structure back into the bloodlines, even if it's not how It Really Works.
And I mean, if this is a no, can I just call them a breed for the sake of being able to use it as a descriptor and a visual aid/put that breed on their profile? But still breed them as hybrids?
