Tricky

hi! i'm prox. i'll make this cute later.

about my availability.
my timezone (fr+17), my disabilities, and my full time job can make me slow to respond to messages or take me offline unexpectedly, thank you for your patient understanding.

jan 2023 - im taking a hiatus, i will be around briefly in the weeks of festivals and light pushes so if you message me i will see it eventually!

about this dragon.
Tricky isn't part of my lore, she is my cat! you can see pics of her on twitter @ atrickycat.

about my lair.
- i collect gen1s and gen2s, but don't care about id numbers or length, or offspring lists.
- my favourite colours are pinks, oranges, bright yellow-greens, and pastel purples.
- my favourite breeds are wildclaw, obelisk and aberration.
- i love body horror and gross stuff and bugs, and also rainbows, eyeburners, and vaporwave aesthetic.
- i love to breed randomly and see what i get but i also take pairing requests!
- i exalt for profit, more about that below.
- i have a very cohesive lore in my head and am slowly writing it down, lore dragons have their own special tab.

history of my lair.
july 2013: joined as "stilinski". progen: Derek, random: Erika. first flight: Arcane.
august 2013: moved to Plague
august 2014: abandoned the game
during 2017: gave away my entire horde and multiple dragons to more active friends
may 2022: returned to playing, changed to "prox", moved to Light
june 2022: my best friend hal gave me a few old items from their inactive account
jan 2023: hiatus!

about my fandoms.
current fandoms: my ocs are my number one fandom! but also: tons of dnd actualplay, tons of horror movies, The Locked Tomb, Interview with the Vampire, Elden Ring, The Terror, Our Flag Means Death, The Magnus Archives, Hannibal, Disco Elysium, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Severance.

some dragons are named after characters from fandoms I am no longer into but prefer not to change.

about exalting
i exalt for profit sometimes, or during light pushes.
what do you exalt?
- i buy at fodder prices (never above 7k), hold to adulthood, train and exalt at a profit
- sometimes if i have spare nests i pay more for ready to breed adult fodder, then they and their hatchlings are trained and exalted.
- if my hatchlings or the dragons i am flipping aren't selling i train and exalt them.
- if i do a breeding project i exalt all but one hatchling and eventually the parents.
- sometimes if i get bored of a dragon and it's been in my hibden a while i will exalt.

what does exalting mean to you?
- exalting is not death, it is simply leaving to serve the gods.
- exalting is a high honor in my clan and working to see their fellow dragons exalted into the service of the gods is a religious passion for many in my lair and many dragons long to one day be exalted.
- my broodmother Erika helps organize who is being exalted and when.
- the warriors of the clan train new dragons so they will be worthy of exaltation.
- my flight ambassador Apricus escorts each exalted dragon to be with the Lightweaver.

do you give fodder back?
sure! send a crossroads with the dragon's id number and a payment offer.
- if it's a baby in my hibden or an unleveled adult i will return it for 8gkt
- the time between a dragon entering the coli and being exalted is very short and i won't see messages.
- if it's already been exalted i will require the cost of restoring it + some kind of tip (food, gems, mats)
if you ask politely and provide incentive for me to spend my brief and precious time on fr helping you, it is more likely to get results - otherwise you will get to be my first ever block and report.


about my sales
dragons not listed for sale:
- Derek and Erika are my progens and i can't sell them.
- Resolution, Apricus and Birthday are not for sale under any circumstances.
- if you want a dragon specifically for its id numbers or hatch date, i am happy to trade for a dragon that looks exactly the same (same generation, gender, colours, genes, eyes, etc.)
- feel free also to make an offer on any dragon in my "pair tree" tab, I will consider it. just please take into account that if it's a gen1 i probably paid for the genes.

items:
- 1 gem : 1300 treasure (varies depending on what the rest of the site is doing)
- I won't trade my items for your dragons or art. I will consider item for item trades if they're equivalent value.
