[quote]Everyone knows that Pearlcatchers value their pearls as much as if not more than their own lives, and that they carry them everywhere. In their breed art, both sexes are shown carrying it in their talons. My question is, do they ALWAYS hold it in their talons, or do they create bags and other ways to carry it in a way that frees their talons up? I would think it would be difficult to walk from place to place if you always had one or two paws holding onto this pearl, even if it were strong enough to support their weight as they walked like in the male breed art.[/quote]
Pearlcatchers have long come up with creative ways to keep their pearls close, and that definitely includes tools like satchels, slings, and backpacks. The art depicts the dragons physically holding them because the pearls are such a focal importance to the breed and its identity.

Hey team! Thanks so much for answering my question! I'd forgotten I sent it in, but sure enough I still have the auto-response in my emails from it.
Thanks for the inspiration on how I can draw some dressed up Pearlies in the future.♥
Stay safe and healthy, everyone![/center]

Hints are clues that the developers provide for upcoming features--they might be anything, from new NPCs to new lore to new familiars or items.

Aaaaa I'm so hyped for the new stuff! I'm thinking "Landscape" must refer to the map update?? Not sure about the others (although "Fairy" could be the new Ancient, since some of its concept art had fairy wings?)

Hey! Building on Dragonpals's post, what if the new ancient breed was for Arcane? Their only breed is the fae, and a fairy-like dragon would fit in splendidly there.
