Scholars and scientists have worked in tandem, putting aside any philosophical differences in order to properly understand these peculiar creatures. Below are some of their most relevant and recent findings. [center][b][size=4]Specifications[/b][/size][/center] The most consistent cases of Runecatchers have been subjects who match the following: [list] [*] [b]Primary Genes:[/b] Basic, Crystal, Iridescent, Metallic, Ripple, Skink, Starmap, Wasp [item=Primary Gene: Crystal] [item=Primary Gene: Iridescent] [item=Primary Gene: Metallic] [item=Primary Gene: Ripple] [item=Primary Gene: Skink] [item=Primary Gene: Starmap] [item=Primary Gene: Wasp] [*] [b]Secondary Genes:[/b] Alloy, Basic, Bee, Butterfly, Current, Facet, Shimmer, Spinner, Trail [item=Secondary Gene: Alloy] [item=Secondary Gene: Bee] [item=Secondary Gene: Butterfly] [item=Secondary Gene: Current] [item=Secondary Gene: Facet] [item=Secondary Gene: Shimmer] [item=Secondary Gene: Spinner] [item=Secondary Gene: Trail] [*] [b]Tertiary Gene:[/b] Runes [item=Tertiary Gene: Runes] [*] [b]Primary Colors:[/b] Maize to Thistle [img]http://i.imgur.com/14D7glc.png[/img] [*] [b]Secondary Colors:[/b] Maize to Grape [img]http://i.imgur.com/kJiNBK7.png[/img] [*] [b]Tertiary Colors:[/b] Maize to Thistle [img]http://i.imgur.com/14D7glc.png[/img] [/list] There seems to be no specific [b]Flight[/b] or [b]Element[/b] these dragons are aligned with or originate from. This phenomenon is limited to [b]Pearlcatchers[/b]. [item=Breed Change: Pearlcatcher] The leading theory is that their pearl, the essence of their experience and personality, serves as a sort of conduit that directs and amplifies the powers of the runes — but we are far from certain regarding anything that concerns these creatures. [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] We have discovered multiple variants of the original Runecatchers whose powers are as varied as their colors. You can read more about the specifics in [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/2122600#post_25696846]this post here[/url]. Our current known variants are: [list] [*] [b]Suncatchers[/b] - often borrowing qualities and colors from the sun itself, these passionate, fiery dragons encompass a range of reds, golds, browns and yellows. [*] [b]Mooncatchers[/b] - with a close tie to the moon, these dragons have a fairly limited range of colors, though not abilities. Subvariants currently being studied include [i]Blood Moon[/i], [i]Harvest Moon[/i], [i]Blue Moon[/i], and the newest [i]Hunter Moon[/i]. [*] [b]Storycatchers[/b] - these vivid characters have three variants: the dark purples and deep blues of the [i]Sky[/i], the light blues, greens and aquas of the [i]Sea[/i], and the deep greens and light yellows of the [i]Earth[/i].

[b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30708149]Erebus[/url][/b] walks through the darkness as if he's made of night itself. They are in this world, but not of it. Nighttime is their time, and their language is esoteric and mysterious, of tenebrous shadows and shafts of moonlight. There is a certain starkness to the night, a time when hope and regret hover close to the surface. Secrets are easier to share after dark, and hard truths are ready to confront. Do not trust it all, however — moonlight hides as much as it illuminates, and a moment of midnight melancholy can spiral so easily into darker, desolate places. Turn your attention to the skies instead — confide in the moon and stars. Trace the pattern of constellations spread endlessly above you. Even in utmost darkness, there is light — there are wishes, and hopes, and dreams. Confront the night without fear and gain an entirely new perspective of a once-familiar world.[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/P7ydbiW.png[/img] [i]Visions. Things seen in a dream, behind closed eyes. Knowledge that arrives with little fanfare, its truth as undeniable as the mystery of its origins. Visionaries. Those who can see beyond the here and now, viewing those limitations only as suggestions. The ones who wield perspective and truth like the tools they are, tipping the world just slightly askew to shift our perceptions. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30381500][b]Delphi[/b][/url], fabled prophetess on a first-name basis with Fate, and [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=29473736][b]Hermes[/b][/url], messenger of gods both acknowledged and unknown, live in a world that resembles none other. Shaped by visions and occupied by visionaries, it is constantly shifting, changing, tilting — and so are its inhabitants.[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][b]Sun's Glory [/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/iSTm2s2.png[/img] [i][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=29565899][b]Rah[/b][/url], sun god both benevolent and merciless, and [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=29318534][b]Zorya[/b][/url], keeper of the dawn and dusk, guardian of the gates that the sun passes through each morning and evening. This magical pair embodies the warmth of the sun, the promise of morning, and the mysteries of twilight. Runes are written upon their scales, indecipherable and ancient. Step into the light with this luminous pair and bask in their glow.[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/97zxUqK.png[/img][/center] [center][i]An idea is the most powerful thing of all. A single thought can change the world. So many things influence them — opinions, experiences, expectations. Thoughts can grow, ideas can change, and suddenly all is transformed. Nothing is what it seems, for who can predict what new belief will shape us? What new perspective will cause us to doubt everything we were so certain of? Belief generates energy, and energy powers reality. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30497843][b]Aether[/b][/url], a living battery, can strengthen the illusions [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30135929][b]Hecate[/b][/url] crafts so meticulously until we cannot distinguish them from reality — until they become reality. There are ways we can protect ourselves — knocks on wood, salt tossed over a shoulder, careful avoidance of cracks, ladders, and dark-colored felines. Our good luck charms will bring fortune, and the dreamcatchers hung where we sleep will catch any bad dreams before they can get to us. We believe it, and that makes it so. We believe, and it becomes the truth. Or does it?[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/JXxnEEo.png[/img] [i]So much of our lives seems laid out for us. We inherit qualities and grudges alike from our parents; we step into roles that seem to fit even if their constraints itch. Is it really a choice if we have no other option? What if we could do anything, be anything? What if our constraints are self-imposed, our limits thought up by others and not reflecting on our own capabilities. What if we could start fresh, the world spread out before us in a sea of options? [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=32499341]Lorelei[/b][/url] sings a siren song of opportunity, of hope, of empowerment. Not all are ready to take their lives into their own hands, however, and the fragments of their wrecked ships are all what’s left of their attempts. Others are ready, open, willing to risk the discomfort of change and plunge headlong into the terrifying unknown. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=29648029][b]Gordian[/url][/b] is cursed - no, no. Gordian [b]was[/b] cursed, for that enchanted song showed him an entirely new way to be. A gold-touched descendant of Midas, he was unable to touch anything without it turning to metal - gold, silver, steel, iron, it didn’t matter; it was all statuary in the end. The sea has its own magic, however, its own rules and its own rhythm. When Gordian plunged into the waves in a bid to escape his fate, he changed it. The ocean has a mind of its own, and it heeds only the rules it makes. Thus Gordian’s curse was washed away, swept into the fathomless depths. What if we found ourselves on an entirely unexpected path? What if the burdens we’d resigned ourselves to were, too, washed away? What if we heard the mermaids singing, each to each, and in their words heard strength, heard wisdom, heard power? What if we did not find ourselves wrecked upon unyielding rock and instead swam free and true through waters we called our own? What if? [/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/sglUfrY.png[/img] [i]Secrets. Treasures. Riddles. Answers. Relics buried with the dead, holding magic long forgotten but no less potent for its obscurity. Someone must remember who and what came before. Secrets are heavy, but someone must keep them. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=32728136][b]Sphinx[/b][/url] guards knowledge and memory alike, offering wisdom wrapped in cryptic phrases to those that seek her. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=31346571]Anubis[/b][/url] spends his time in tombs, where he has daily dealings with life and afterlife, death and rebirth, truths revealed and mysteries unraveled. He knows answers to age-old questions, but they are not his to share. Instead he devotes himself to recording, to remembering, to recounting, filling page after page with the deeds and hopes of those who have gone before. Nothing is truly dead if it is remembered; no one is truly gone. And so the pages fill the books, words indelibly printed, volume upon volume placed reverently upon a shelf that already holds so many tomes. Spirits pass through his chambers, lives ending and beginning with a tip of the scale. Souls are measured, counted, noted, and sent on to whatever comes next. With Anubis they leave remnants of themselves, artifacts of their lives. He hears their regrets and wishes, their secrets and fears, their triumphs and accomplishments, and forgets none of it. Secrets. Treasures. Riddles. Answers. Mystery shrouds them both, this pair that has withstood life and death, catastrophe and recovery, destruction and creation. They were there when the world began, and they will be there until the end — remembering.

No one knows this better than [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30150564]Brighid[/b][/url], One Most Mighty and Fair, she who wields fire with the same confident ease as her other blacksmithing tools. Songs are sung about her creations, poetry written about what wonders she can bring into being with a thought, an effort of will, and a roaring forge. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30381066]Igneous[/b][/url] is such a creation, and his tale is a favourite among children. How, when Peerless Brighid set to create a weapon more powerful than anything she'd ever undertaken, her ambition and inspiration flowed into the metal itself. How in the molten crucible a blade became a dragon, and that dragon became her constant companion. How he is made of living metal, and trinkets made from his shed scales have properties both wondrous and terrible. How he, too, knows his own form of smithcraft, and together they create artifacts to delight bards and heroes alike, their power unrivaled. For that is the way of fire, of Brighid: she is fire untamed, fire unbound, fire walking. Her flame will burn eternal, and the stories she sets in motion will be her immortality. Fire burns. Fire cleanses. Fire creates. May her light shine in the darkness, and sparks of inspiration spread wherever it touches. [/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/02MVfLx.png[/img] [i]We are not the only ones who remember. Battlefields recall the strife and glory of skirmishes, the blood of both the triumphant and the defeated sinking into the very earth. The ocean pulls memory into itself with a force as inexorable as its tides, home to shipwrecks and treasure that can recall their first voyage. Buildings, too, have a memory - an intrinsic recollection of who built them and for what purpose that resonates through their very foundation. With time, simple remembrances gain strength, power, sentience; they develop a mind of their own. Such was the way of [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=33181467]Nekromanteion[/url][/b], a sacred temple built with reverence, to stand at the crux of the rivers of the Underworld. Perhaps it was the influence of such a potent location: where oaths, miracles, oblivion, grief, fire, and regret flow so steadily and inexorably. Perhaps it was the power of belief that took something inanimate and unthinking and turned it into something entirely different. Or perhaps it was an inexplicable whim of the Underworld and its denizens, whose motives are known only to them. Whatever the reason, one day the building woke, stretched, and took a step outside. It - she - followed the winding path created by the rivers, suddenly filled with a need to live, experience, learn, and explore. We are not the only ones who remember. Indeed, after nearly everything but time itself forgot [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=43977732]Narcissus[/b][/url], the pond where he sat transfixed remembered him. The water into which he gazed - a potent mix of runoff from rivers of flame, truth, remorse, of promises kept and broken - remembered him, preserved him after life had long since left him. The bright yellow and ghostly white flowers that took his name remembered him, their heads turned expectantly towards the one who created them. Narcissus lives no longer, not in the way we think of it, existing instead in reflections and recollections, in tales and stories. Nekromanteion was never alive, not in the way we think of it, yet she wanders the Underworld endlessly, seeking knowledge, seeking answers, seeking life. Thus do they walk together, life and death, the remembered and forgotten, forging new paths for themselves as they traverse a realm of possibility entirely their own.[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/iuKtRpn.png[/img] [i]Our experiences make us who and what we are. They shape us, they teach us, they lead us down one path and away from another. Our decisions make us who and what we are. They change us, they guide us, they shine light onto some things in our life and cast others into shadow. Our relationships make us who and what we are. They bolster us, they alter us, they show us experiences we’d never have found ourselves and impact the decisions we make. Daedalus knows this better than most. Blessed by the gods with immortality for his great gifts of invention and creation, he has experienced more than his share. His decisions and their consequences echo in the empty parts of his life, and relationships formed have changed him more than he ever could have expected it. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=33182677]Baba Yaga[/b][/url] could’ve told you all this in fewer words, twisting poignancy into riddles and truth into pithy sayings, all while smiling a smile that could mean absolutely anything. She’s lived more lifetimes than most, kept alive by belief and magic, by trickery and sheer willpower. The wisdom and knowledge her experiences have brought her are things she decided to share with the rest of the world — for a price. We cannot go back and affix wings more securely to the base. We cannot go back and become someone else, someone in the center of stories instead of the periphery. That does not mean we lose all options. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=33136749]Daedalus[/b][/url] builds small things now, carefully checking and rechecking them for any hazard or risk, not trusting his immense skill to any equally immense project. Not again. Baba Yaga enjoys the life on the periphery, steering heroes and maidens towards doom or their heart’s desire — both, on a good day. In the end, it is all within our power: we are the ones that shape and teach, that change and guide, that bolster and alter. We are the ones that find our path, often digressing on the way. We are the ones that choose to open ourselves to new experiences, to new relationships, to walking down the latest path whether it’s lit by surety or not. We are the makers. We are the inventors. We are the guides. We are the story, and it is ours to write.[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/8l83zBM.png[/img] [i]Magic is a wild thing; it cannot be tamed. We can study it, try to measure and quantify it, try to predict how it might act or react. We can test it, seeing what can be made possible and what limitations hold fast. We can use it, changing our world and everything in it, but we can never master it. Outside a research facility dedicated to the study and identification of magic, there sits a grove that contains no dragon ever tagged with a subject number. Yet stories are born here, legends come to life, and some things change completely. It is a wild place, with a mind of its own. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=34974309]Ceridwen[/b][/url] brews her cauldron here. Capable of granting immortality, of bringing the dead back to life, of transforming one thing to another and back again. Her life is a solitary one, and she prefers it this way. She brews rumours of wicked witches lurking in the depths of this grove and takes pains to make trails that lead absolutely nowhere. This is her world, and she has everything just so. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=44224128]Dendrite[/b][/url] had other ideas. He didn’t mean to have any ideas at all, actually — older trees are less prone to fits of fancy; they leave that to the dryads — but magic respects no boundaries, and this grove is a wild place. From a cauldron of birth and rebirth, creation and transformation, has emerged a tree both sentient and more active than any tree has any right to be. He moves freely in the grove, full of questions about all that he sees. Suddenly no longer alone, Ceridwen has taken to learning how to explain to a former — if that’s the right term, perhaps he’s just evolved, grown, transformed —tree about everything under the sun. Thrust upon her has been the role of teacher and guide, and into her life has come someone with more vitality and curiosity than she could ever imagine. Magic is a wild thing; it likes to wander. It likes to tinker with what we know to be true, changing the rules when it feels like it. Ceridwen is no longer alone. Dendrite wants to know how, exactly, eating is accomplished with a — what was it called — yes, a mouth. And in a facility nearby, Runecatcher hatchlings are showing up, their origins unclear. They are wild, with minds of their own, insatiable curiosity and uncanny abilities. For now, the magic is satisfied.

Upon her marble throne draped in silk and sunlight, he vowed to stay by her side claiming he would not fear her.

It's what's after death that worries... and interests. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=275225&tab=dragon&did=31813838][b]Thanatos[/b][/url], the personification of death knows this better than anyone. He speaks with the dead, even embodying the characteristics of a spirit at times. He comes and goes at will, striking when least expected. He is feared and awed at the same time. [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=275225&tab=dragon&did=32130189]Fortuna[/b][/url], goddess of fortune and personification of luck, is no stranger to death either. She sees possibilities in time, a coin toss of life or death to see whether luck is on your side. Though she only voices the positive, a spin in her phrasing to make it seem as if her luck is always your side, be aware that she only views the best possible outcome. It is not set in stone and a simple mishap can change her vision entirely.[/i][/center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] The following pairs belong to @KathiraNarae.

As you move through space, you are attracted to a place where time flows more slowly for you, a force called 'gravity'. So too is the space-shifting [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=197114&tab=dragon&did=31682838][b]Sachmet[/url][/b] guided towards the time master [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=31657754][b]Iah[/b][/url]. Alone, they have little control over what occurs - flowers decay then bloom in rapidity, upward stairways come out at their own bases, vases freeze moments before hitting the ground, rooms may become tiled in tessellating octagons, and causality and euclidean geometry give up and go for lunch. But all things are attracted to lower levels with greater stability, and it is in this that a temporal flow of one second per second is attained and a speed of one meter per second in that same time span will indeed cover one meter. There is control in stability, and time and relative dimensions will themselves shift and feel the earth move, hide away in a nest that is surely too small, and return merely hours later with a collection of hatchlings that speak far too maturely for their age. Time will tell if there is the space for all their wonders...[/i][/center] [rule] [img]http://i.imgur.com/YNm5X4A.png[/img] [center][i]To wish selfishly tends to backfire and none know this more than the fallen king.

Faced with each other, Jack no longer wanders alone as he is kept in good quarters and in good friends in return for study, while his new mate Oro has found herself as free as ever in movement as she fulfills his desire for company. Even if she is the gold standard. However, tests indicate vast quantities of sulphur within Jack's pearl, even though the secretions he emits to add to it do not.

It is perhaps unwise to cross her, however, as she appears to have the face of the skull of a large seabird, and claims to have been a golden porpoise or a cloud chaser on occasion. And Mariner, a pacifist who believes all life should be respected, is adamant that killing those creatures can only lead to ruin. Perhaps is for the best that the Coliseum be avoided.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/JdSiOME.png[/img] [center][i]The Moon. Many cultures revere the Moon as goddess that bestows fertility. But she is also the ruler of the tides and reigns the circle of life. The constant lunar cycles represent birth, growth and death. Many myths and legends evolve around this mystical celestial body that graces the night’s sky. 'Under the Pale Moonlight', the tale of the immortal goddess [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=275636&did=32217387]Selene[/url] and her mortal lover [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=275636&did=32319972]Endymion[/url] is one of the most popular stories told. It is said that Endymion was so beautiful to behold that Selene fell under his spell from the moment she set eyes on him. And how could he, a mere mortal, not fall for a goddess from the heavens? But their love was doomed, as his life would be over in a blink of an eye and they would be separated by death forever. Desperate, Selene cast a spell over Endymion causing him to fall into an eternal sleep. Now she watches over her sleeping beloved, who remains deathless and ageless. Only allowed to wake once in a blue moon, he will remain her youthful and beautiful lover forever.[/i][/center] [rule] [img]https://i.imgur.com/lHfinNC.png[/img] [i][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=275636&tab=dragon&did=32725334]Gwynbleidd[/url], known as the White Wolf or the Lone Wolf, is a formidable warrior and mercenary. Wandering all through Sornieth, he would take care of any demonic, supernatural, monstrous or worldly threat if the payment was satisfactory. But over the years, he grew weary and tired. Nobody was ever grateful for his services, some even said he brought the evil spirits upon them himself and that death followed in his wake. Finally, the White Wolf decided to return to the green Shrieking Wilds where he had begun his journey so long ago and offer his skills not for shiny coins of gold, but in exchange for a warm comfortable den and a place to call home.

The lair calls upon them, during ceremonies, and when the healers must move the injured. They can stay aloft for hours at a time, but during full moon phases they are at their strongest both alone and linked together. Linking is something they have not found in anyone else - they can mentally reach to each other through that inner heart where they feel each other always, and combine their strength making both stronger. They have never successfully linked with anyone else and believe that it is a mating link connected to their runes. Locally they are known as the Moonsingers - loving to float above the lair and sing songs into the night on special occasions.

Eclipse has the ability to manipulate solar energy, which makes him the perfect counterpart to Corona. He brings focus to her power, and can act as a magnifying glass for her phototechnic flares. He is also capable of bending light to create illusions. One cannot always trust what is real and what is just a trick of the light when Eclipse is near.

Her gift works particularly well for plants and beings in need of a little light therapy as she can transfer the sunlight energy to specific targets. When used on plants, her gift works particularly well, enabling them to grow and flourish or even recover from near-death wilting at a rapid pace. It is highly likely that Yavie could theoretically kill with her abilities, if she were to transfer such energies away entirely rather than creating that energy directly from renewable sunlight. Upon invoking his runes, [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=33411295]Oeramn's[/b][/url] pearl transformed into a globe of pure sunlight (which he tends to keep at a soft golden glow to avoid blinding others). As such, he is capable of producing his own sunlight, both warm presence or destructive focus (he tends to prefer soft, warm light) and manipulating existing sunlight, bending or even refracting it like a prism. In working with his mate, Yavie, Oeramn has discovered that he can manipulate the sunlight energy she transfers from him to her plants, enabling him to, in effect, control the plants infused with it. She will not let him test this puppetry trick on her light therapy subjects, her energy transference abilities allowing her to cut his control, and thus his inquisitive mind, off from such experimental attempts.[/i][/center] [rule] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/w6jTLx9.png[/img] [i]Always a gentle romantic, once she invoked her runes, [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=31490973]Aurora[/b][/url] could see the golden threads of romantic fate tying others together. The closer their proximity to that mate, the more obvious their thread to her eyes. Since then, she's discovered some people have more than one thread and they come in multiple colors. A gentle pink denotes familial love, for example, while the golden threads mark soulmates. She can't always see threads, not for everyone, though it is rare when she can't. Among those whose threads she cannot see are her own, and her mate [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=32850473]Shibuichi's[/b][/url]. Along with this gift she is able to sense and empathically project the various ranges of love and affection. So, for example, she could pick up on a mother's love for her child, and project it so that the child feels it directly. It helps ease doubts, letting people literally feel the love others have for them. She can also amplify love and affection, giving a stronger "voice" to something already there. Finally, like the sunrise for which she is named, invoking her runes gave her some power over new beginnings, allowing her to auspiciously charge them when focused on the event/people involved. Nearly halfway through his runic phrase, Shibuichi froze up as the warmth of life and his emotions both fled his mind and body, replaced by cold metal through his core. He has since then discovered the metal is malleable and he can move freely. He is much stronger now, but far less dexterous. However, he is also flexible. All the same, he is afraid that a full invocation will finish the process and he'll become nothing more than a fancy gilded statue or worse. In this state, his emotions are muted.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] It's official: we are live! Hatchlings from me coming soon. :) [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img]

[size=1]Runecatchery pinglist: @paintminion, @Silwyna Astral Walkers' pair pinglist: @Disillusionist, @Rowanne, @Lunamyth, @Silwyna, @CHINCHINLOVER, @Mallerin, @Poiichy, @AmeriaSparrow[/size] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/NwgKIuz.png[/img][/center] It has been our pleasure to finally put out an official report regarding the reopening of [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/2122600#post_2122600]our facility[/url]. We hope that the new infrastructure in place, as well as the addition of two residential wings and more staff, will result in a more productive and less unstable environment. The birth of [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=28064006][b]Subject #4006 [Asteria][/b][/url] and [b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=284903&tab=dragon&did=30708149]Subect #8149 [Erebus][/url][/b]'s first hatch since that reopening seemed a fortituous event. We felt it set the tone for the [i]new[/i] facility and what we hope to pursue in these exciting times. Unfortunately, it appears that we were right. Subject Numbers 1174 and 1175, twin sisters, invoked their runes upon birth. We are unsure if they both decided upon this, or if one made the choice and the residual magic present at any hatching took it from there. Either way, they were a handful from the start. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=44331174] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/443312/44331174_350.png[/img] [/url] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=44331174]Estelle, subject 1174[/url], is in the possession of translocation, commonly referred to as teleporting. While she is only able to physically teleport small distances, she seems able to throw her awareness or a certain sense - touch, smell, sight - further than her physical body. This ability shows much promise, even if she currently uses it to find snacks, hear what the staff are saying privately, or stage the perfect entrance. Despite their identical appearance, their personalities set them very clearly apart. If [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=44331175]Subject #1174 [Estelle][/url] is the outgoing sister, [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&tab=dragon&id=284903&did=44331175]Subject #1175 [Stella][/url] is the introvert. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=44331175] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/443312/44331175_350.png[/img] [/url] So introverted, in fact, that without substantial concentration on her part, she has a tendency to fade away. We aren't sure if this is a manipulation of sight or simply awareness; either way, it has proven trying to observe her at regular intervals. When concentrating or intensely interested in something, she is fully visible, with a commanding presence that matches her sister. Indeed, she literally glows when her ability is displaying its full strength at this end of the spectrum. For the most part, however, she remains semi-present in any given situation, fading or returning as it suits her. [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] Such are the portents for our new facility: they are wild, charismatic, with stubborn wills and minds of their own, who are forces to be reckoned with, together or apart. And before you ask, yes - one or both of them is likely reading this report over our shoulders. Further observation is recommended, as are all typical precautionary measures. Both dragons are available to new homes. [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8wSy0n.png[/img] Both dragons are listed on the AH for [b]45k[/b] treasure each. If you wish me to hold one until you have funds, let me know.
