I apologize if this has been suggested before, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I see (and get, myself) a lot of "potato" cubs that actually have some interesting markings but you can't see any of them because they're, like, 20% opacity. I believe this even accelerates the decline of certain marking values as cubs with low opacities of that marking start appearing in the TC or even the Giving Tree.

Wouldn't it be nice to have more opportunities to boost marking opacities in cubs? Especially multiple markings at once? Obviously, it shouldn't be TOO easy, but it would also be nice to raise the opacity of 3+ markings without spending more than 6 GB.

I'm thinking maybe a breeding item that's fed to the mother (or father?) that boosts the average opacity of the litter's markings. Maybe this could be a special event item (like Crunchy Worm) that's reserved for special occasions/breedings. The point would be that it would work across multiple markings, making it a little unpredictable but generally leading to more interesting-looking lions on the site.

Alternately, I also think there could be a more predictable Oasis item that conveniently boosts multiple markings (maybe just all to 100% as that still seems to be the most popular option for main males).
