Dark Purple -- Twilight tribe. Usually coming out only when the sun is setting, but while there is still light left in the sky. They are mysterious and enjoy their pages having some unusual features.

Sun -- *duh* Sun tribe! Cheery and delightful. To be awarded a Sun cub their page should be very bright and happy.
White -- Ice tribe. Chilly inside and out, a bit arrogant and highbrow. They like having cool pages.
OTHER COLORS
There are other colors, mixed breeds with no set tribe, that have started showing up rarely. If you're very lucky, or design your page very well, you may be the first to get one of these very special cubs! They will have consistant coloration through their stages, and they will come with a special set of rules for breeding.
How do you get one of these? Well, if you have a very nice page, a well designed site, or a clever story about how you got your Egyptan, that may do it.
Good luck!
