[b][u]EXAMPLES[/b][/u] [b]From my own lair (my lair is a 1920s jazz club, for context):[/b][br][br] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=203342&tab=dragon&did=19821882][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/198219/19821882.png[/img][/url][nextcol][color=transparent]xxxx[/color][nextcol]He breathes in familiar smoke — stagnant, suspended over the heads of his content patrons like starless firmament. His velvet lungs feign to its toxins, helpless and stranded inside an arrogant hedonist. He cares not for his health, for the moment the spotlights dazzle him, he abandons himself to his own fantasies. With a saccharine, honeyed voice, he invites the audience to lose themselves in their own indulgences — reality cannot touch them here.[/columns] [br] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=203342&tab=dragon&did=18401587][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/184016/18401587.png[/img][/url][nextcol][color=transparent]xxxx[/color][nextcol]She takes a glance at her audience — dazed, astonished eyes tinged with an insidious reverie meet hers. Their attention did not waver from her, enraptured by such a piercing red in colourless context. She needn’t worry herself with pleasantries, for they know who she is. Her lips part and her words flow out of her. She knows what to say, taking the words in their souls and serenading them with what they want, or perhaps need, to hear.[/columns] [br] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=203342&tab=dragon&did=33246539][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/332466/33246539.png[/img][/url][nextcol][color=transparent]xxxx[/color][nextcol]Violin in hand, he steps out onto the stage, buzzed and alive. He moves with a certain swagger that seems natural for a man of such a pedigree as his; yet there was a certain languid quality to his gait, as if he floats above his patrons with ease, that betrays nothing but overconfidence. The audience cease their chatter when they spot him, and he acknowledges them with a nod. He takes his place and feels the heat of the spotlight, luring him, demanding excellence...[/columns] [br] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=203342&tab=dragon&did=32511062][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/325111/32511062.png[/img][/url][nextcol][color=transparent]xxxx[/color][nextcol]He sits at a table far from the golden lights of the stage. A half empty bottle of burgundy keeps him company as the cabaret begins. He lifts the lip of the bottle to his own and looks around him, noting how these glassy-eyed patrons rejoice so greatly at the spectacle unfolding on stage. He envies them -- foolish, empty people content and satisfied by frivolous entertainment. Part of him regrets funding the upkeep of the club, but where else would he go to abandon himself to distraction...

She makes the effort to greet her guests, most of whom she did not know, exchanging pleasantries and compliments for a brief moment as fine hosts do. Certainly, all see her as an agreeable woman, one of the most esteemed in her clan; anyone should think themselves lucky to be invited to her lavish affairs. But one needn’t tell her this directly, for she knows her own worth — nobody who valued themselves poorly would live such an opulent life as she.

Hi hi! n _ n You asked to be pinged when I opened again!

@Kookaburra

Hello! n _ n If you were still interested in a longer piece, feel free to re-fill out the form for each dragon you'd like done! :0

@Rochambeau
Hi :) Is it possible to get a blurb for 2 dragons at a time or is it just one per player?
I'd love to have one for each of my progens. They have no lore or anything really, I've only been on FR for under three weeks and dont quite get the whole lore thing yet, I also lack creativity (^_^'')

@rochambeau [b]Dragon/OC link: [/b] http://toyhou.se/1293288.amaranth [i]is his character ref; the dragon is below![/i] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=30867] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/309/30867_350.png[/img] [/url] [b]Link to/description of clan/world lore:[/b][i] n/a![/i] [b]Does your dragon have existing lore?[/b] [i]no.[/i] [b]If no, what ideas do you have for this dragon?[/b][i]more solemn/melancholy character, probably some kind of necromancer/dark magic practicer/what-have-you. but not evil/bad inherently. overall a sort of 'tragic' old guy, but very powerful. [u] HE HAS A LITTLE INFO ON HIS TOYHOUSE PAGE TOO!!! [/u] [u]green fire/smoke is kind of his 'motif'[/u][/i] [b]Notes:[/b] Any is fine! I trust your judgement [b]Do you agree with my rules in the first post?[/b] Yes! [b]Any song recommendations? I'm looking for new music :')[/b] Psychobabble by Frou Frou-- or really anything by Imogen Heap/frou frou ; __ ; ALSO!!! I'm definitely gonna go ahead and give a 800+g bribe if you'll perhaps take it for something a little longer...

@Rochambeau oh boy, okay. let me know what kind of bribe would be appropriate for two ~1000 word stories!

[b]Notes:[/b] Go wild! [b]Do you agree with my rules in the first post?[/b] Yes [b]Any song recommendations?[/b] Trapeze Swinger by Iron and Wine. it's a song about seeking forgiveness for something unforgivable, and some of those lyrics are on point. anything by iron and wine, really, all their songs are intimate and touching.
