[color=#731D08][b]Hello everyone! As you all know, each year we in Plague attempt to spread our disease to the other flights during our October festival, the Riot Of Rot - but this year I'd like to suggest that we do it just a little bit more literally.[/b]
[size=5][indent]The Prompt[/size]
Other flights' blights. More specifically: diseases specialized towards the other flights. I propose that we band together this year to come up with creative flight-specific skins and accents!
Do Water dragons sometimes get Scale-rot or parasites? Perhaps Nature dragons (like many plants) suffer from Blight or become bogged down in fungus. The technologically advanced Lighting dragons may suffer from computer viruses or worms, or otherwise corrupt and glitch. Maybe an illness can cause some Ice dragons to suffer frostbite - dead and blackened limbs, or Fire dragons to become subject to burns - melting holes in their own bodies. The possibilities are endless.
Every year we plaguelings focus on our own illnesses and decay, this year...
