I basically love the idea of a Pinkerlocke and I'm stalking the threads regularly. I just have some problems with the system as they don't really fit my current playstyle. I just don't have enough time to do something with the everyday item that Pinkerton gives me. And I'm not looking for a new "clan" or something that hasn't a clear end for me. I need a reachable goal and a clear ending point. So, I made up my own challenge that is inspired by the Pinkerlocke:
[center][img]https://imgur.com/y6usz6x.png[/img][/center]
My goal is to get the achievement for the ten Lvl.20 dragons in my lair, but more than that, it's about randomness, getting attached to random dragons, and Coli fun.
I currently have four dragons who are Lvl.20 or above, so I need another six from this challenge.

[b]This is how it works: [/b]
[b]1.[/b] I will buy the first two adult non-related dragons from the AH, who are triple gened and can be bought with treasure. One male and one female. These are the "founders" of the challenge.
[b]2.[/b] I will battle in the Coliseum with the two founders until I get three special drops (so battling will always happen on a challenge day). The number of required drops will increase with Levels.
These determine what will happen afterwards:
[QUOTE=Items]
[b]Familiar:[/b] Write Lore (more familiars just means more text or more dragons involved in the text)
[b]Potion:[/b] Apply a Battle Stone on a Dragon of your choice.
[b]Chest:[/b] Buy the cheapest treasure Apparel in the AH and equip it on a dragon. Where they are, they will need every armor they can get!
[b]Battle Item:[/b] Breed a pair. If noone is RTB, buy the cheapest hatchling from the AH.
[b]Eliminate/Ambush/Rally:[/b] A leveled dragon (from my main lair) helps out for a day (should be with lore).
[b]Apparel:[/b] Buy the cheapest Adult Dragon in the AH.
[b]Skin Crate:[/b] Death Streak! (10 consecutive battles)
[b]Vista:[/b] Exalt/Sell ALL current Hatchlings who participate in the challenge
[b]Gene:[/b] A Random Dragon can't fight for 1 day (2 when there are more than 3 Adult Dragons)
[b]Egg:[/b] Buy something expensive for a dragon (New Gene, Accent, etc.)
[b]Rare Item[/b] (Runestone, Rare Food): Joker! Can remove one item for the next drop.
[/QUOTE]
[b]3.[/b] Every batch of drops is one day in the challenge. So multiple things will happen for the protagonists in one post, but since I can freely decide when I continue with everything, I'll have plenty of time for all of this.
[b]4.[/b] As soon as someone reaches Lvl.20... I don't know. xD They retire? They do something else? Stay in the challenge? It really depends on the lore up until then.
[b]Some additional rules:[/b]
- For startes, I will choose the venues, but I won't make it too easy, I promise!
- Defeat of a Dragon means that he "dies". He will be axalted or sold. (d'uh)
- If I have more than three adults, the RNG decides who fights.
- If I don't get a Familiar, I am still free to write Lore, but I [i]don't have to[/i].
- When a batch of hatchlings grows up, all but one of the nest will be exalted/sold (random). If wegged, the hatchling doesn't make it to adulthood. Does not apply to bought Hatchlings.
- I'm not an english native speaker and need high concentration to write, so some of the texts will probablybe short and with lots of mistakes. x'D
[b]THIS IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL! I made these rules without testing anything, so I'll probably have to change some things during the challenge to make it fun/doable/more challenging/or whatever![/b]
Tipps for improvement are always welcome!

Okay, I hope I didn't forget something.
After setting up the thread I will start with a Prologue. My two founders will be introduced, and after that, the first real day happens. For the first three drops, the two founders are immune to death, so that I can start the challenge properly and not lose before anything happens. xD

Darkness. Not a single glimmer on the floor, not a single warm glow from above, it was pitch black darkness.
Ascot thought his eyes would get used to the blackness after a while, but nothing changed. He felt cold stone under his feet and on his back. It was rough stone, as if he was in a cave or something like that. He tried to stand up, and was relieved that he was quickly on his feet and paws. No part of his body hurt, nothing was in chains - he seemed to be free to move.
"Is... is there someone?", asked a voice and Ascot jumped in surprise, almost hitting his head on what he assumed to be the ceiling. "Hello?" The voice, who seemed unfamiliar for Ascot, already got a little more snippy. "Would you care to
answer?" It was ladie's voice.
"Uhm, [i]I'm[/i] here.", answered Ascot and realised what a dumb thing to say that was. "I'm Ascot. I... can you see anything? Do you know where we are?" He heard a sight. "No, I have no idea what's going on.", the female voice said. Ascot tried to think about what could've happened: "Last thing I remember is that I wanted to stop by a clan in the Twisting Crescendo. I'm a trader, you know. I heard it's a very friendly clan for travellers, but here I am now. In complete darkness. I can't even remember if I fainted or... I don't know. They probably ambushed me and next thing we know is being served on a plate or... do you think they'll eat us? They might be cannibals?" "Oh damn, please stop talking." The female dragon seemed annoyed. There was a small silence between them, followed by another sigh. "I'm Ignacia. Before worrying too much about ridiculous things, we should-" Ignacia suddenly stopped. "Can you hear that?", she asked. Ascot listened into the silence. But... yeah. It wasn't [i]complete[/i] silence anymore. There were some kind of soft noises. Like tap...tap...tap.... and then taptaptap... The noises became louder and there was more and more tapping. Also, the darkness seemed to be just a little less black now.
Ignacia asked: "Did you ever encounter Pocket Mice?" Ascot shook his head, forgetting that she wouldn't be able to see it. "That sounds like a whole flock of Pocket Mice. But we'll see early enough. They have small glowing bulbs all over their body. Look..." From what seemed to be a mile away, a faint glow started to emerge. "Do you have any experience in fighting?" Ignacia asked, a little bit alarmed now. "Cause I don't."
But before Ascot could tell her that he was as good as a fighter as he was with women (=super bad), everything became illuminated. First thing Ascot saw was a horde of tiny little brownish fluffballs, and then he looked to the place where Ignacia's voice had come from. She already stared at him with determined eyes.
That was the moment our two protagonists saw each other for the first time.

Welcome to the Challenge, Ascot and Ignacia!!!
It was so exciting to buy the dragons, and I'm pretty satisfied with them right now. I somehow imagined a male Ridgeback and a female Guardian while writing the text (I bought the dragons in the last few minutes, cause it was the most fun part of setting this up), but that's who they are now. <3

Oh THANK WINDSINGER, I got a Potion. My two dragons started, obviously, with Meditate and everything took sooo long. XD I was tempted to decrease the required drops to two, but everything turned out well in the end. Since I have to write Lore, I will reveal the applied Battle Stone and the Apparel I bought in the text.
I also burned a ridiculous amount of Health Potions (I know the dragons had immunity, but I wanted to get in the right mood for the challenge), this is a little bit more dangerous than I thought. xD

Ascot felt Ignacia's back pressing against his own. Her fur was fluffy, as if it had never gotten dirty or tousled. The Mice had built a circle around them and seemed to prepare for an attack. But, surprisingly, only one or two at a time came at them.
Ascot heard Ignacia making weird snorting noises, and he guessed she tried to use Contuse – a Magic Ability he knew himself, but hated to do. He always had the feeling his nose got hot and tingly while using it.
„Ouch!“ His thoughts were interrupted by a Mouse jumping at him. The attack left a thin scratch on his arm. … „A scratch?“, he thought baffled. „If that thing can use its tiny claws, [i]why shouldn't I[/i]?“
[item=Scratch]
Ascot learned Scratch!
After what felt like ages, the attacks of the Mice seemed to slow down a bit. Ignacia was confused, cause they still were far superior in numbers. But the circle around them got bigger, granting the dragons more and more space. And suddenly, as if someone gave a secret command, the Pocket Mice scattered, right before they ran away.
The defeated creatures lying around still emited a soft gloom from their bulbs. „Hey, I think we can follow them.“, Ignacia said. Ascot looked at her in astonishment. „Are you insane? They might kill us! And, to be honest, I'm hurt.“ He showed his arm with a barely visible scratch.
Ignacia sighed and took a quick look around. After a short while, she picked up something from the floor. „Here.“ She had a smooth looking green cloth in her paw. „Tape up your... '[i]deadly[/i]' wound and come.“

Yaaaaaay, I got a third dragon! Ascot and Ignacia aren't able to breed yet, so I bought from the AH. Since that's a huge thing I wrote some lore without getting the drop for that. We need to get this story started, after all!
Everything was so much easier with Scratch. <3

Ascot and Ignacia cautiously followed the tiny footsteps of the Pocket Mice in the dirt. For the first time since they met each other, they had time to examine their whereabouts.
It was clearly a cave, but it didn't seem all natural. They realized that the place where they woke up and fought actually had a heavy pitch black automatic door. After the Mice have fled, it was wide open and led to a long corridor. Faint lights at the end of the corridor guided the way of Ascot and Ignacia. There was nothing to hide, no crack in the walls, just a long hallway. It must have been created by someone or something.
„Look, there's another door.“, whispered Ascot. Ignacia examined it thoroughly. „There's a green light above it. And something lies on the floor.“ Don't touch it!!“, Ascot screamed as the Tundra approached what seemed to be more cloth. „Be quiet!!“, she hissed.

Ascot made a high shrieking noise. „Who... who's there?!“ Someone twitched on his Green Ribbon.

„Hello there!“ The little Coatl behind the door that had just opened said, and Ascot calmed down. „What are you doing here, little friend?“, he asked and immediately got smacked by Ignacia. „Little friend? Do you even listen to yourself? He's chillin' there like nothing's wrong, he's one of the dragons responsible for our misery!“ She gave the coatl a killing glance and seemed to prepare herself for an attack. „What do you want?“, Ignacia pressed out. The Coatl backed off a bit. „Nothing!“, he said. „I woke up in a dark room, and someone told me, if I want to get out, I'd just have to wait here for someone and explain the rules.“ „Someone? Who?“, Ascot asked and the Coatl shrugged. „It was just a voice.“ Ignacia didn't seem to believe anything she had heard. „The rules to what?“, she asked with mistrust in her voice. The Coatl approached the door. „Come with me, I'll show you. Oh, and I'm Akrail, by the way.“

Okay, so I changed some rules. First of all, Hatchlings don't have to be part of the Lore until they've grown up. I have no idea how I should describe that Akrail suddenly became an adult between a corridor and a room. XD So I'll just ignore that this time and try to think ahead next time.^^
Also, I changed the outcome of an Egg drop. Let's be real, I never gonna hatch it since my Hatchlings could get wiped out every day by RNG, so I'd rather buy something expensive for one of the dragons from selling the egg.
Also, i changed „Day“ into „Chapter“, cause days don't make sense at all.^^

The three dragons entered a tremendous hall. Here, nothing looked like a cave or anything natural anymore. Plain, black walls, a clean, cold floor, and doors. Many, many doors. It was impossible to count them all at once. Above every door was a tiny red light, except for one.
„One of these rooms is the exit.“, Akrail explained. „But only one door can be opened at the same time. All the rooms have trials for us. We have to pass a trial in order to open the next door. But I do not know what to expect exactly.“ His voice sounded anxious.
Ignacia eyed the Coatl suspiciously. „There are too many doors. And we don't have weapons or armor. Nor potions, no paper and pen... just NOTHING that could help us with anything.“ Akrail risked a small grin. „Well, did you notice one room is already unlocked?“ He nodded to the door that had no red light. „That's where I woke up. The trial there is to collect some stuff. Didn't you find a handy bag that we can fill? After that, we can choose a new door. The exit is in a random place, maybe we get lucky early on!“
He led the way to the room, and Ignacia couldn't help but comment with a snippy voice: „And you know all of that from a mysterious voice. Right. You're not getting less suspicious, you know?“ But she still followed Akrail. Ascot tagged along behind them, seemingly in deep thought. „Hey... important question.“, he said after a while. „Can I choose the first door?“

Nor potions, no paper and pen... just NOTHING that could help us with anything.“ Akrail risked a small grin. „Well, did you notice one room is already unlocked?“ He nodded to the door that had no red light. „That's where I woke up. The trial there is to collect some stuff. Didn't you find a handy bag that we can fill? After that, we can choose a new door. The exit is in a random place, maybe we get lucky early on!“
He led the way to the room, and Ignacia couldn't help but comment with a snippy voice: „And you know all of that from a mysterious voice. Right. You're not getting less suspicious, you know?“ But she still followed Akrail. Ascot tagged along behind them, seemingly in deep thought. „Hey... important question.“, he said after a while. „Can I choose the first door?“

After some consideration, I decided to ignore the Festival Currency for the drops. Chests, on the other hand, not. Not that I got any, I really didn't get any good drops so far, even though I had many consecutive battles (Ignacia almost died~).
AND I had HUGE luck with the Apparel this time. Cheapest item for 2k! *__*

[item=Silver Wing Garland]
Ignacia got new Armor!
The trio had grabbed pieces of armor, potions, some herbs, pen and paper, and a magnifying glass from the room where Akrail had been held captive. Then, without much discussion, Ascot chose one of the countless locked doors for their first real trial. With a sudden hunch, the Pearlcatcher just placed his claws on the cold, black steel, and the red light above turned green. All three dragons held their breath as the door opened. Ignacia was ready to attack anything that might come out of that hellhole.
But nothing happened. There was just a small, almost empty room with grey walls and a dim light from above. The only thing in there was a huge metallic box. It had handles on each side.
„What's that?“, Ascot asked. „I don't know. As of now, I'm as clueless as you.“, Akrail answered. „Sure.“, a sarcastic sounding Ignacia mumbled, while approaching the box. Without touching it, she examined every side.
„They all look the same.“, she said after a while. „Nothing remarkable, the box is flawless. Even the handles are all identical.“
Ascot and Akrail circled around the box now. „Did you try pulling a handle?“, the Pearlcatcher asked. Ignacia shook her head. „We don't know what could happen.“ „That's probably the whole point. Well, only one way to find out!“ And before the Tundra could stop him, Ascot pulled a handle.
Nothing. It wouldn't move an inch. „Maybe you're just too weak!“, Akrail teased him and pulled another handle. And suddenly, the walls on both sides of the box, where the two dragons pulled, moved a little bit. „Look, Ignacia! Urgh, but it's so heavy.... help us out, maybe?“ Ascot looked at her with what he thought was a charming smile.
Ignacia's stern face didn't even move a little bit. But after she kept the two males in suspense for a while, listening to their exhausted grunts, she grabbed a third handle.
The walls of the box seemed to spread apart further. Now, there was a paw-wide opening. While pulling, Ignacia tried to overview the whole situation. The more dragons had pulled, the more success they had.
„Hey guys?“, she said as she wanted to share her thoughts. „I think we need one more.“ „One more what?“, asked Ascot. „What would we do with another box?“, asked Akrail.
Man, these two are the same kind of idiot, Ignacia thought. „There are four handles on this box. We need someone to pull the last one!“ She saw both of her companions nodding, and then letting go of the handles. „But we're just three. And we have nowhere else to go but the way we came from.“, Akrail rubbed his paw, hurting a little from the pulling.
But he was right. How could they solve this problem?

Since it's my birthday today and I got no Familiar, I'm going to skip Lore. I'm not sure if I should change the outcome of a Treasure Pack drop, cause soon all my dragons will be drowning in Apparel. xD Also, this is just a cosmetical gimmick and has no influence on anything.
But then again, I think these drops get a little bit fewer as the venues get harder? Well, we'll see about that.

Potion didn’t mind silence. Not just that, he loved silence, embraced it. Silence was his philosphy.
But he didn’t like density. And where he was, he couldn’t even move a claw. He felt metal around him, as if he was in a very small chamber, with tiny rays of light coming from the edges. There seemed to be no door, lid, or knob.
„Well, this feels like a death trap.“, Potion thought without feeling much. He wished he could lie down and wait to die, but other than that, it didn’t concern him much. He knew he couldn’t change anything, so why make a fuss about it? His face showed no sign of remorse, but then again, he always wore his mask that made any expression unrecognizable.
[item=Blue Warrior Face Mask]
That, and the fact that he never talked, made Potion an outcast. Although he didn’t know from what – as long as he remembered, he was alone. And he preferred if it’d stay that way. Well, it would, since he would die here in this… [i]box[/i].
[size=2]„There must be a way.“[/size] A muffled voice. Was it in his head? No, no. It was a female voice and Potion knew his inner voice better than anything else in this world. It was a deep, monotone voice. Also, it seemed to come from... outside.
Suddenly, the walls moved a few inches and the light from the edges got a little bit brighter. „I don’t think it’s a trial of strength, there must be an easier way.“ Potion could hear the female voice clearly now.
„I don’t know.“, someone else said, sounding insecure.
„Hey Guys!“ Now there was a third, very loud, voice. „Guys. Guys! We discussed this a thousand times, there’s no one here. But there’s one place we haven’t looked yet. … … … …“ There was long pause, and Potion thought the dragons might have left. But then he realzied, that someone obviously just exaggerated a lot with making a dramatic pause.
„IN THE BOX!“, shouted the male dragon. „That’s the dumbest thing I ever heard.“, the female voice hissed. But then she seemed to reconsider.
„Actually… that’s the only [i]thing[/i] we have.“ She sighed. And suddenly, Potion heard her from one of the edges. „Hello? Is there someone?“ It was clear that the girl felt ridiculous.
Potion wasn’t keen on meeting these dragons. The one who had the idea about him, sitting in this box, seemed annoying to deal with. And the femal dragon seemed bossy. Maybe the third one, who hadn’t talked much yet, was alright. But that was still two to one.
„Nothing.“, the girl said. For a while, the only thing Potion heard was his own breathing. Then, slowly, he tapped with his claws. He had no death wish, so a few annyoing fellas were probably better than starving here. He tapped louder, more resolute and listened if there was any reacton. Was it too late? No, wait, there were whispering noises.
„Hellooo?“ The voice of the chatty guy sounded close now. Potion tapped again. „I think someone’s in there. Maybe they’ve been gagged.“ Now the female dragon was heard again. „Important is that their paws are free. Excuse me?“, she almost yelled now in Potion’s direction.
„Could you please pull on this site of the wall? We think we can get you out of there.“ She knocked on the metal behind Potion’s back. Another tap was his answer.
„Alright, on three.“, the female dragon said. „One, two…three!“
And Potion pulled.
