Festival of the Night 2023 - Secret Santa!
Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by ccbestiaryAurelia’s Hatchery is running out of space for new eggs. Given that they all have crazy magic going on, she wants to find them their homes as soon as possible! The last thing she needs are two dozen eggs hatching early and destroying her Hatchery. She seeks the help of Riders the worlds over to find new homes for the eggs. Perhaps they will find their dragon here…or perhaps they can tell if someone else matches a dragon! This is a secret Santa event where players look for their dragon and find a dragon for others. Will you find who you’re looking for?
This year, Aurelia will be splitting the egg hunting into two batches. This is the signup for the first batch!
What is a Secret Santa?
For this Secret Santa, you make a custom dragon for someone. In return, you receive a custom dragon from someone else, along with a few other prizes! Who you get it from is a surprise, and the person you are assigned is also a surprise. Please keep your assignments a secret until January 16th. What you get is random, so only participate if you are open to any possibilities.
Prizes:
- One pre-designed secret santa dragon with a few custom traits to make you smile~
- It will have a mutation of choice.
- A random UR trait will be rolled publically on the Discord and applied to the critter as Recessive.
- 1 Slot to an Emissary of your choosing
- 1 Legendary Egg +10 SC -OR- 1 Ultra-rare Egg + 15 SC

F.A.Q.
Do I need to enter on the Chronocompass site?
Yes, you will need a site account so that you can receive your prizes.
Can I include extra art/reference art for my secret santa?
Yes! Feel free to attach any art you like to your gift.
Can I include items with the design?
No, you can’t gift items, even if you use what’s in your inventory. There are several modifiers that can imitate paints and adornments (albeit with a few limitations). Debris is the easiest. Check them out!
What Happens if I Can’t Finish My Design?
The person who made your Secret Santa gift will keep the design they made for you, and you will not receive one. Your recipient will have their gift drawn by a moderator. You will not receive the 10 SC reward, legendary egg reward, or Emissary slot reward. If you are unable to finish your design and you know ahead of the deadline, let us know so we can reassign your task to someone else. Your dragon will be returned to the giftee, and they may choose to gift it to the community however they want (raffle, group contest, etc.) or keep the design.
I am having trouble designing. Can I have some help?
The mods are always happy to help! You can message cosmonstars on Discord or directly message the Chronocompass deviantart group. There is an exception to the no-mod-DMs rule for secret santas.
What Happens if I Don’t Like My Design?
If you would prefer to have the art in your style, you may redraw it. Slight changes in marking coverage/trait coverage are allowed (such as reducing the number of stripes, increasing the amount of Debris, adding items, etc.). However, you cannot change the design that is given to you beyond that, and you cannot use the geno for anything else. When the dragon unlocks magic on its import, the original design should still be apparent through the magical additions. What you get is random, so only participate if you are open to any possibilities.
Can I Use Phinae’s Remembrance on the recessive trait?
Yes! If you have to update the design, keep any changes minimal so that the original design is easy to see. You will need to acquire your own item to use it.
Can I Sell, Trade, or Gift my Secret Santa egg?
No. If you choose not to use it, it will simply go unused.
Can I Sell, Trade, or Gift my dragon after it’s uploaded?
Once the dragon is uploaded, you may sell or transfer it like normal. There is a one month cooldown on ownership, so if you upload it on February 2nd, you can sell it on March 2nd.
Will the dragons have lineage?
Yes, they will have lineage assigned upon upload. This is usually one recent Emissary parent of matching element(s) exactly and two 1-20 ID grandparents matching the element(s).
Can I enter both Secret Santas?
Yes! However, you cannot sign up for the second until you finish with your first Secret Santa design. Details about the second Secret Santa will be released at a later time. It will have different perks/design rules than this one.
