Griffins are a new phenomenon, and not all dragons decided to treat their once-clanmates as equals. Some new griffins became unsure of themselves and left to begin a new life.
[u]Some of those griffins ended up here.[/u]
A small pride of Griffins is sustaining in the Harpy's Roost, but many dangers await them...
[i]This is my first Pinkerlocke!

The pinkerlocke rules copy&pasted (With a few edits for my version) from [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/1525830#post_1525830]Tar's thread here[/url]
This is mostly here for me, so if I forget anything it's right here :3

[b][i]Basic rules:[/i][/b]
[LIST][*]A death in the coliseum = that dragon must be [s]exalted[/s] SOLD [spoiler]Due to the dragons being valuable[/spoiler]. This is the most essential rule of a nuzlocke.
[*]All loot obtained in the coliseum is irrelevant, as is the loot obtained from gathering.
[*]There are no restrictions about applying apparel to your dragons. Do whatever makes sense to you. Same goes for familiars.
[*]And, most crucially, all nuzlocke activity corresponds with the loot you obtain daily from Pinkerton's plundered pile! [/LIST]
[b][i]Drops of Fate:[/i][/b]
[b]Food:[/b] Coliseum time!
[center]
[b]Plants[/b]: 10-20 matches
[b]Insects[/b]: 20-30 matches
[b]Seafood[/b]: 30-40 matches
[b]Meat[/b]: 40-50 matches
[/center]
[i]Easymode:[/i] Choose whichever team and venue you want and go for it. Running from battles, using health pots, and ending the battle streak is fine.
[u]Materials and trinkets[/u]:
[b]Materials[/b]: Do some writing for your nuzlocke. How does your new nuzlocke clan change and develop? What are your dragons like personality-wise? How do they get along? How do they die? Is there an antagonist in this nuzlocke, or are they merely struggling against the forces of nature? Write dragon bios! Make a blog, or a thread for your challenge in the creative forums! Write short stories or paragraphs, or add to one big one adventure!
[b]Trinkets[/b]: Do some art for your nuzlocke! Digital or traditional, use whatever medium feels best for you. Draw deaths. Draw dragons. Draw humanized versions of your dragons (if that's your sort of thing). Draw familiars and dragons together. It doesn't have to be that good or elaborate. If you make a nuzlocke thread, post your art there.
Obviously, you might not have time in your day to do something creative. If that's the case, don't worry about it. This challenge is meant to be fun [s]and heartwrenching[/s], not a chore.
[u]Rare drops[/u]: Wildcards
[b]Familiars & Apparel[/b]: Buy the cheapest [s]dragon[/s]griffin in the auction house of a specific breed. Use a random number generator (between 1-14) to determine which breed you will get!
1. Fae
2. Guardian
3. Mirror
4. Pearlcatcher
5. Ridgeback
6. Tundra
7. Spiral
8. Imperial
9. Snapper
10. Wildclaw
11. Nocturne
12. Coatl
13. Skydancer
14. Bogsneak
[b]Battle items[/b]: Uh-oh!!!
Flip a coin.
Heads = DEATH STREAK
Tails = Nothing happens
DEATH STREAK rules: Randomly select three dragons using a random number generator. Fight in the coliseum using the "food" rules 10 rounds consecutively (ie. you cannot leave that arena), quitting midway if a dragon dies. If you are using the easymode rules, switch to the hardmode rules for battlestones.[/quote]

10 - 20 Battles in the Coli
[i]I'm going to write a bit of lore for this, seeing it's the first day![/i][/center]
--------
Pehira and I continued to head towards the Shifting Expanse. We had only been travelling for around two days when we came across two more griffins. Both were very young, hardly more than hatchlings. Their feathers were astoundingly different to mine and Pehira's, theirs being a rusty sort of golden brown. Sunrunner (The one who instantly and breathlessly introduced the two of them) had a sleek fiery orange cat half with pitch-dark stripes, while Goldbeak (Mostly quiet and not speaking, but had a very loud voice when he did) was mainly just a golden brown.
We teamed up and set a small den up for the night. The two new griffins were eager to help, and it was practically done by the time I suggested I go hunting around for something to eat. The others agreed, and I left.
When I returned, the small den had apparently gone through chaos. Pehira was rolling on her back on the ground, cackling like a mad old world hare, ripped shreds of moth wings in her chest feathers. Goldbeak was licking what appeared to be blue honey off his talons and Sunrunner was playing with an ember mouse. I stopped and stared.

Lore time! (And yes the tooltip inspired some of what is happening)

--------
Thunder raged across the sky as rain lashed my new feathered wings. Flying in a straight line without being blinded was hard enough, even without Pehira spinning around like a loon and accidentally cannoning into my side. Sunrunner was drenched and looked smaller than she was. Goldbeak was flying above her in effort to shelter her from the worst on the rain, uncaring that he was getting pummeled by the rain himself.
"Alright guys, I think it's time to call a break. I can barely even see the ground below us." I cawed. [i]Even my voice has changed a bit.[/i] I dipped my wing in and began spiraling down swiftly, the wind pushing me in all directions. Naturally, Pehira dipped into a dive like a professional, disappearing into the misty cloud we had been flying above. I soon followed, with the two younger griffins on my tail. I splashed down into a puddle, Pehira already stepping away from the wet and shaking mud off her talons. Sunrunner practically landed chin first in the puddle beside me, tiger-striped half in the air, as Goldbeak slammed into me from above, knocking me back down into the puddle. Now thoroughly soaked through with mud, I squelched off after Pehira.
Sheltered from the worst of the storm under a chunk of a column, I stared out into the rain in the direction of the Shifting Expanse. [i]Hopefully there, we'll find a new home...[/i]
This soft pelt is water-resistant and lined with a thin coat of fatty tissue. Perfect material for a rainy day.
