UPDATE: It's coming...
The 2019 Greenskeeper Gathering Lacquer-Luster Manifestation is just around the corner!
I've got 3 breeding pairs with a total of 6 hatchlings ready to emerge during the holiday. The standard post with all the info for those available for purchase will be put up when the Greenskeeper Gathering begins, and the auction will continue for the duration of the holiday or until every hatchling finds a home. Asking prices may vary, and I am incredibly open to trades/haggling.
The current pinglist will be pulled from last year, with a few updates from those who have already contacted me. If you'd like to be added, let me know.

Re-Posting on main forums becasue original thread only available through the private Nature forums:
Officially submitted and approved: A Mirror-specific Subspecies called "Lacquer-Luster". They resemble polished wood with tarnish/tarnish metallic/alloy and green-range tertiary (runes, lace, smoke, glimmer, contour, and smirch).
ARTWORK IN PROGRESS
LORE:
"Due to their species' origins from the Abiding Boneyard, many dragons of the Nature Flight are wary of Mirrors... but one group endeavors to erase all doubt for their flora-aligned brethren. Through elaborate Druidic ritual, these Mirrors have emerged from deep within the Wilds, having transformed their bodies into pure conduits for the element of Nature; their hides shine like muscular, finely polished wood, while they emit an ethereal green glow that promises a loyalty none can deny. They are still brutal, ferocious dragons to be feared, but now their savagery is tempered by the incipient hand of The Green. They serve as enlightened soldiers, and tend to only manifest during the Greenskeeper Gathering, Nature Dominace, or -defiantly- during the Riot of Rot."
I am aware this concept has a very limited variance in appearance, but as they are meant to be a sort of enlightened soldier it makes sense to me that they would be fairly uniform... and tarnish has the particularly appealing green highlights in metallic/alloy.
For lore reasons I intend to only produce offspring when the Nature Flight's aura is waxing, so during Nature Dominance, Greenskeeper Gathering, and Riot of Rot, (and this year during the eclipse as a special event) adding to their rarity.

PINGLIST FOR LACQUER-LUSTER HATCHLINGS (Non-Nature Flights)
I now have 3 breeding pairs with guaranteed offspring for the next nesting opportunity (Greenskeeper Gathering/Riot of Rot/Nature Dominance), so that means more hatchlings to go around! A 4th breeding pair is also in the works, which means there will soon be hatchlings available for purchase that are from a separate family tree and can interbreed. Ping me @Smocksinabox if you want to be added to the Non-Nature Flight Pinglist; Hatchlings for sale will be posted here.
