Hey there, do you do licensing / grading Marwaris and Akbar tekes? I have some I am looking to grade but can’t find any stud books and here I found this lovely group! Thanks :)

Sorry I don't plan on making any more for the moment. My last Marwari adoptable batch was not received with much enthusiasm, it took some time before they were all claimed.

I have observed that the community usually goes nuts over breeds that are favoured by popular players, whether they be fantasy or real breeds. It's a bit of a bandwagon syndrome I guess. Back in the days when I first created this group the Marwari breed enjoyed a surge in popularity as a few very prominent HARPG players were creating and promoting them. Gradually these players went on hiatus or left the game, and the breed went into steep decline. But they are a versatile and beautiful breed so it would not be difficult for Marwaris to make a comeback if they had active players putting them in the spotlight once more. Speaking with other HARPG players I get a sense that the Marwari breed is much loved, but people are hesitant to create horses for which they will find few other breeding bloodlines to pair them with, or few breed-specific shows.

Sorry for the delay, somehow I didn't get a notification alerting me of this comment.
Yes it is, but there are nowadays very few HARPG players with active Marwari or Kathiawari horses, so there is far less traffic than in former times.
