Just a place for me to scream about dragon capitalism

I was wondering just how many missing lore articles we're up to at the moment, because it feels like we haven't gotten anything new since the Auraboa story

Longneck rewrite

Centaur rewrite

Maren rewrite

Talonok rewrite

Serthis rewrite

other Beastclan articles if they do ones for Dryads, Mith, etc

Dusthide short story

Everlux short story

Cirrus short story

Thorntail short story

Honestly I'd love if they took a break from apparel recolours and gene expansions and things to just write at least one of these, because they are starting to pile up

[darktouched-chimera]

Wake-up everyone. Longneck lore drop.

It's interesting that we have several dozen cat familiars by now, but I honestly can't think of a single dog one, where is the dog love

[goannafr]

DUDE ikr!!!! we need more doggies ;_;

there are the flying corgis... are those the only DOG familiars?? there are other canines like wolves etc but yeah where are the dogs...

[tinygryphon-58570]

omg I can't believe I forgot about the hainu and I'm in freakin' Wind flight o-o;

But yeah!! I think those are the only ones?? And that's nuts because dogs have such a crazy variety of different shapes and designs that FR could easily play around with and they just... don't?? It's weird o:

[darktouched-chimera]

Skimmed the entirety of the familiar database.

Here is the full list of domestic dog familiars:

Hainu: 6 total, 2 shibas 4 corgis

Isopuppy: 2, the only floppy eared dogs

Steelhound/Scrapmetal tracker: 2, unknown but kinda shaped like greyhounds

Hellhounds: 3, visually it's generous to call these dogs, the canine skull is the only thing doglike about these

That's 13 dogs.

Full list of domestic cat familiars:

Nekomata: 3 (2 Baldwin, 1 anniversary)

Scorched forest cats: 3

Ferberus: 3

Capricats: 5 (2 ww, 2 gem mp + fiona)

Sphinx: 7 (2 thunderhead savanah + fiona, 2 treasure mp + fiona, skycat)

Floracat: 6 (2 ww, 4 swipp)

Inspiring paintbrush: 1 (cat mimics count right?)

28 cats.

I also noticed this cats vs dogs trend with wild felines and wild canines.

HIDFUHSODF Y’ALL, I’m grinding for a Mesacliff Harpy, and legitimately, I got a Crowned Roc before any Mesacliff Harpies.

Tfw a bird bigger than any dragon just decides to come back with you. He better not eat the faes.

I was just wondering if lore/ask blogs interacting with each other was a thing here? Or just people doodling dumb shenanigans back and forth in general?

I’m kind of used to that type of format from other fandoms, and I don’t know that I’ve really seen it here in the FR community, but I’d be very happy to interact with other users if it is! ^^

[sandcastle-clan]

i have seen a couple blogs try to do this, although I don’t know how many of them really get off the ground or post consistently? I would also be happy to interact with stuff like that, even if it’s mostly to normalize it and help people feel less nervous about starting that kind of blog ^-^

[darktouched-chimera]

Interacting with other blogs using silly doodles of my lore dragons is absolutely my primary post type. So long as I see something that does have a way to interact. Though, I absolutely should do more posts to invite interaction like that.

[tinygryphon-58570]

Reblog this with any random thing about your specific Flight culture that is completely player-made (not something in the official lore), like Wind being associated with corgis, or Fire’s Flambebes

[darktouched-chimera]

Oh man, dunno how true this is anymore cause I barely look in the forums, but the custom greeting of a local for any dragon visiting plague/scarred wasteland was to sneeze on you then dip you in the wyrmwound.

[tsunami-gem-guardian]

oh yeah maintence 

[darktouched-chimera]

I don’t remember what it’s for, pls enlighten me to ease my dragon withdraw

[tsunami-gem-guardian]

They’re adding a semi new feature called “the grand exchange” Basically a Joxar revamp to also include NPCs for other holidays such as warriors way and notn. Believe they said they’d let us view their pages outside the holidays as well?

[darktouched-chimera]

Figured it would be released with warriors way, but either way

[tsunami-gem-guardian]

oh yeah maintence 

[darktouched-chimera]

I don’t remember what it’s for, pls enlighten me to ease my dragon withdraw

[flightstalling]

normal fae requests something

[darktouched-chimera]

I’M PICKING THE LIL MAN UP! CONSEQUENCES BE DAMNED!

[darktouched-chimera]

I wonder if there are any aberrations based on the song Evelyn Evelyn yet?

So only three of these dragons have any kind of indication they are tied to the song. Smh. Y'all had an opportunity and missed. Gonna go make my own Evelyn Evelyn dragon now.

[darktouched-chimera]

I really hope I’m not food

[darktouched-chimera]

Conspiracy theory

Ok... hear me out

[darktouched-chimera]

It happened

The 1000th familiar

[primrose-fr]

The Guardian's Charge is one of my favorite ideas to play around with.

[darktouched-chimera]

You portray this as a wholesome admiration of a role-model, but on the other side of the coin, this means that yandere guardians statistically exist. Possibly more often so than other breeds.

[darktouched-chimera]

So I was naming fodder

I pressed the randomize button and got the name “dirtstick”

Sounds like some weird warrior cats name, but whatever, they are bred from my dragons, and I don’t care about the offspring list. I click accept.

Y’all... dirtstick is not allowed hasgdfuihj

Edit: I just checked and both dirt and stick are allowed as names

[flightstalling]

Bogsneaky… Bet you can’t find him.

[darktouched-chimera]

Find who? I don't see anything.

...has anyone seen my gems?

[tarou-rising]

What is the role of your progen in your lore?

[darktouched-chimera]

Lol, she dead m8. Some of the members in her clan got fed up with her and so someone assassinated her, causing a civil war for power. Now she's a name seniors use to tell stories to new hatchlings.

[darktouched-chimera]

I just decided to start Coli grinding for food and loot out of boredom, second battle in and I’ve been blessed.
