A poll took place on the group Discord which decided on the next priority feature. As a result, fish collecting is here! This is a small addition to Adventures that allows you to collect 50 fish from around the universe. Some even come with lore! View them all by clicking here. They drop as Transport Tanks to prevent unwanted surprises, in case tentacles or transparent bodies are on your list of phobias. If you are uninterested in fishing, you may always sell them for Silvence. They all sell for more than the average activity item.

You may find a Transport Tank in the following ways:

• Salvaging in Any Terrain, along with things that pull from the Salvaging pool (Diary, Tacklebox, Cormorant, etc.)
• Aquarium (which is open again!)
• Claiming a Basic Lure

The Basic Lure is a new item that can either add a Transport Tank to a piece of art OR be turned in for a daily claim, no art required. The Basic Lure is a Novice Blacksmith craft that uses Prepared Meat. If you have Novice Blacksmithing unlocked, you will already find the recipe in your recipe book. An award has been added for people that find their own collection of 50 unique fish. Read more on that here. Fish may be transferred into an Aquarium Den item, where you can even name them. This feature is still undergoing balancing. Depending on its popularity, it might be expanded, or similar features might be implemented. Bug collecting for Gathering, more fish, and more lures to catch specific elements are all possibilities.

Of course, it would be irresponsible to add a feature without cleaning things up on the site. Anything related to Adventures has been reviewed. The Adventures page now has images and links for each item. The images even come with alt text for accessibility! Every item found in Adventures also says which Adventure they come from on the item page and links back to the Adventure page for more information. The Adventures page now links to the Experience page, allowing players to see all regular buffs their Rider or dragon might receive.

There have been various other small changes:

• Certain Prompts in the 'All Prompts' section have been cleaned up for clarity's sake.
• The price of some activity items have been adjusted.
• The requirements for backgrounds are now clear-cut. No more subjectivity!
• Policy on bases is now more lax.
• Photoshopping/photobashing is now specifically referenced on the EXP page.
• Flower Seeds have been renamed to Seeds.
• Caving now includes ravines and cliffs.
• You may stalk prey during Hunting again. However, the prey should still be visible.
• Hatchery Donation/Release rewards are changed to Treasure Chests/Treasure Boxes respectively.
• More Prompts have been added across the board. Training, Grand Displays, all Jobs, Prestige, and more have many things to choose from. Job prompts are no longer tied to rank, allowing more freedom for character development.
• Equipment and Den Items are separated from regular crafts.
• Expedition items are marked with rarities. Family Heirloom is marked as rare. Twilight Prism is now Mythic.
• Eggs, with the exception of Odd Egg (which could never hatch into a gryphon in the future), now have the correct hatching instructions.
• Account Migration now has a link at the top of the site. Links have been shuffled around up there to make things more intuitive.
• Beaked allows for teeth, but the teeth should not be attached to the beak. Nostrils may be moved anywhere on the snout.
• All Traits page has returned!
• Many other small changes. Watch the #group-dev channel to see the complete changelog.

The next priority is Pixie's Pile. This is a special adoption center open to all members, though it works differently than the Hatchery. Stay tuned for more information on that. Have fun Adventuring!

Happy Valentines Day! Breedings are open again!

CLICK HERE

There is a new rule: you can only request a breeding once per 22 hours. This makes it a bit easier for us mods <3 !

There are also a few various changes behind the scenes, mainly involving jobs. Trainer III was buffed with the new breeding system, all Master Crafter Jobs were buffed, and all jobs have 12 prompt options (still only up to three needed) that may be done in any order. This should help vary things up as well as help with character development.

For breedings, Elemental Anomalies have Tier IV magic in their corresponding element. Day and Night dragons have Tier II magic in their corresponding elements to start with. You can customize your leasing permissions quite a bit more.  Chemical Incubator now has a 100% chance of dropping a mutation on one random dragon in the clutch. There is a brand new Breeding Roller (sort of. it uses Lorekeeper format instead of old genos, but is otherwise the same on the backend.).

Luna has returned from the Chronoscape, ready to give out their blessings once more. It seems they have things in a bit more order this year. This year works a bit differently than previous years, though. Each element has their own specialty this season; You'll see both new and old themes that reflect their strengths! Be sure to check the rules! The Festival lasts until the end of January.

In addition to these prompts, there will be flash prompts on the Discord that give out various goodies. Keep an eye on the prompts channel if you would like to draw even more presents! Lastly, the Festival of the Day design exchange will launch soon.

Grand Prize:

Once you have acquired 30 silver tickets, you may spend them by commenting on this journal. Choose an element--Night or Day. You will receive an award for your account, along with a lease that says the following:

Use this comment as proof to replace an element with [Day or Night] on a dragon egg or semi-custom (for purebred dragons, you may instead ADD the element and make a crossbreed if desired). Put one mythic trait of your choosing onto this dragon. This cannot be sold, traded, or gifted.

Rules:

• All prompts must be turned in before the deadline. The prompt turn-in is timed and will close automatically.
• You do NOT need to match elements.
• You may use tickets from past events to gain prizes. Tickets may not be traded, sold, or gifted
• Only the artist(s) of an image will receive the prizes.
• Gifts must follow gift art rules. You can check dragons with open gift art HERE and open gift writing HERE.
• Gifts must be of dragons; While including Riders is encouraged, they do not count towards prizes.
• Art images must have a full body dragon, coloring, shading, and a background. All traits of the dragon must be clearly visible. Unlike other years, art must be fully rendered and not rushed. They should all be in separate files--no art sheets!
• Written entries have a minimum of 300 words, plus 300 for each extra dragon character (extra Riders will not add to the minimum). The focus of the story should be the giftee's dragon. They should all be in separate sections--no collection all on one page!
• Collaborations are allowed, but requirements are doubled (two guest dragons for art, double word count for writing). Additionally, the gift must be for a player that is not an artist of a piece.
• You may only get the reward for a prompt once. Additionally, each prompt must be a gift for a different person. You may choose to depict different Emissaries instead of giving gift art, if desired.
• All dragon elements receive 2 Event EXP in each event entry. If a dragon in the gift has access to a calendar, they get an additional +2 EXP. If a dragon has access to a Party Parrot, they get an additional +2 EXP. These bonuses stack.
• You can’t receive any sort of compensation for a gift. It should not be part of an art payment, trade, entry for a giftee’s contest, or anything similar.
• Art from this event may only be turned in for event EXP and event rewards. They do not count for other rolls or generate Familiar events.
