Biography

6ph2vYo.png
Art by bonhon, whose dragon Coulotte I bought on the AH and leveled to 25 only for her to be bought and exalted, and I felt bad so I gave bonhon half the gems I got from the sale.

With a 7-digit ID and a birthday in late 2014, I guess my progens just aren't as old and therefore cool as some G1s, but I still like him. He's also 6.66m long, which is a very edgy and cool number of meters long for a dragon to be.

Originally named FreddieMercury, but I changed it. The name is aspirational, as no dragon could ever be as wild and free as the real thing.

Even after all these years, he and Copperclaw, my other progen, still breed often. Not that their offspring seem to be worth more than exalt fodder, but Mercury doesn't mind. He doesn't love checking in on his descendants to see that they're all exalted, but that's life. He knows how it is.

The 31st-oldest dragon in the world with this gene combination. Copperclaw is the 32nd.

Also, I know it's completely absurd of me to even mention it, but one of his and Copperclaw's daughters, named one, has a son who is Arlo:

And that makes me extremely happy. Long may he run.

Further, he's also father of Kelkarin, who was a Leap Day baby born on February 29, 2024, so I raised him to level 25 and sold him on the AH. He was renamed Kelkarin and given a bio I don't pretend to fully understand. I hope he someday graduates to having more than only three beads, but also I have no idea what that means.

Reached 10 likes on June 8, 2022. Given that he was seven years and eight months old at that time, that means that, if trends continue, it should only until sometime in 2090 before he makes it to triple digits! I'll be long dead by then, but maybe I can convince an heir to take over this account!

Was on the front page July 31, 2022! He gained 1 like during that brief window of time!

Bought his Lightning Sprite on November 29, 2023 for 11,000 gems. They sometimes show up on the AH for less, but that can only happen less and less often as time goes on, so I pounced when I had the gems on hand.

The rabbit on his back is perfectly safe there between the spikes. Do not worry for it.
