Economy Section
Interview By Ghosty
Hello, Zephyr readers! Sorry the Economy section has been gone, but it’s back, and hopefully making up some of the lost ground. This issue’s section is going to be on Wavecrest Saturnalia (in case you missed some of the items) and Contour.
G:T Ratio - 1:710
Contour - 205g - ???kt
Recommendation: ??
Giant Sand Dollar - 1g - NO DATA
Recommendation: Don’t buy for any more than 1g per dollar.
Diver Emblem - 21g - 17kt
Recommendation: Don’t pay more than 15kt or 20g.
Warmwater Wanderers - 51g - 38kt
Recommendation: No more than 37.5kt, or 60g.
Seawater Savior - 35g - 23.5kt
Recommendation: No more than 24.5kt and 35g.
My Tears - 57g - 40kt
Recommendation: No more than 40kt and 57g. But the average prices match pretty closely.
Tender Grasp - 109g - 98kt
Recommendation: No more than 110g and 100kt, and that’s only because treasure prices are significantly inflated above the gem ones.
As always, apologies for any mistakes. Calculators are hard to use when you’ve got claws!

Interview By Ghosty
Hello Flight Rising! I was given the opportunity to do an article for the best newspaper in Sorneith! I didn’t know what to do, until I thought of a perfect topic! So many players on this game have family on here! So I thought I would interview a few. I hope you enjoy!
Mage has a good point about not being banned! That’s a fear I trade every time me and my family share.
@daughteroflight ‘s POV both match and contrasts @Howitzersfriend ‘s, don’t ya think?
@VeiledOverdose has some comments!
@UserofShadows ’s comments remind me of my family experience!
And last but not least @Skychickens ‘s POV!
And that wraps it up for now!

Well, thankfully nothing bad has happened (Like being banned for multi accounting), and it's actually pretty nice! I can ask for a bit of treasure to get that lair expansion I really need (Provided I send something in return sometimes) and sometimes I get to pick one of the dragons she breeds! We both kinda joined when we learned about the site awhile back. She reminded me to join, to I'm happy about that. That's really all I can say.

Well, I don't really have lots of notable experiences with my family on here. None of them are as addicted as me lol. I got all of them to play, but only my girlfriend and brother are ever on. That a lot of my girlfriend's dragons I held for her until she could join. I got in in October 2013, and there was a HUGE gap in reg windows. The next one wasn't until April 2014 so that's why I had to hold them for her. She couldn't play.
None of us are active in dominance, and my brother didn't even actually choose Earth flight. He took too long and defaulted but hasn't cared enough to change it. My girlfriend is nature for aesthetic reasons (she LOVES flowers), my sister is in water flight but lol I have no idea why.) My mom is also water and I also don't know why, but it's possible my little sister convinced her to be there with her. My little sister is super proud of water flight XD No one else really cares about flight differences. We're all just happy where we are.

I'd probably say that the best part about having family on FR is being able to get dragons from some other flights more easily. For me, I don't really have any want or need for dragons from other flights, if their eyes work with their colors then that's good, but I don't go to other people just to get pretty eyes. The thing that I'd say is the worst about having family on here would be that, if you use the general forums, they can see the posts you make. Or maybe the worst thing is when you're willing to pay a lot of money for a dragon they bred, and they still won't let you buy it because they don't sell to family - or really at all.
I got both my sisters playing FR by showing them how great it is! My older sister, and the one that joined in the same opening as me, she's in Light. I showed her what FR was like, and we both like these types of games, so she joined and has been going strong for over a year now! The younger of my sisters is in Nature, she joined long after me and my other sister. For the longest te she didn't really seem to care at all about FR, or maybe that's just because there weren't any openings and she didn't have access to an email account. But she's really nice, she has a lot of great dragons too, so I'd say she's a great player to know. Maybe a little inexperienced, but still good.

Well.
It's been pretty good having them here! I haven't had any bad experiences, in fact it's been pretty fun! I have fun gift-bombing them for sure, and I'm glad I convinced my older sister to hold a dragon for me |D In fact I'm working on a plot with my younger sister, the one I got to join, that we'll hopefully roleplay out soon hehe, which was also inspired by having a dragon held for me, though he's in my lair now unlike the other. It has also made it easier to do certain things, like my older sister usually has a lot of gems, so I can do treasure for gems things with someone I trust, and so on |D
My younger sister was the one to get the other two family members join, but I got her to join. She had to wait months, but I think my talking about it to her a lot and showing her my dragons are overall what made her want to join |D

Hi Shadow friend~ <3
Oh, alright! Let's see... It was a slow process. I joined up first, and made my brothers join a few months after that, but they never really played. About a year later I made my mom join just because I wanted to see what kind of Progen she would choose, and a couple months after that, my dad for the same reason. What I did NOT expect, was for my dad to get kinda... Hooked. Then he started talking to me about it, learning about all the things you can do with Baldwin, etc. And then everyone else decided they wanted to start actually playing.
As for experiences... Only one of my brothers ever uses the forums as of right now, and he sticks to Forum Games, so I don't speak to them often in-game. IRL, however, now I have four people constantly trying to get me to teach them how to play, all at once. Questions like "How many Arcane familiars are there and what are they!?!?" And "Do these materials do anything?" Seem to be the most common as of right now. I guess you could say it's been fun. :D

Skychicken wrote:
Alrighty. My little brother I asked if he wanted to play a new petsite game with me I was trying out, so he joined a few hours after me. I am actually kind of surprised he didn't get in trouble...most sites like this we have joined as long as an adult relative is also playing they can be under 13...and he just turned 13 this April. We misread the rules! He barely plays anyway, so I doubt it's much of a problem.
After quite some time of playing, my mom ended up having a surgery on her neck, leaving her to be out of work for awhile. Then her job was being difficult allowing her back, which turned out to be alright. Her lower back ended up herniating and she needed yet another surgery, so now she is going for permanent disability. My little brother and I thought that she would like it, as she used to play these sorts of things with us all the time. She loves dragons too, so we hoped it would give her something to do since she is stuck at home all of the time. She was pretty inactive for awhile, and now is really crazy about it. I get really humorous text messages and things all the time nobody else would understand.
As for my girlfriend if she counts, she actually got ME involved! I feel like I knew about the site from old dragon petsite games but since I was so unhappy with them I didn't bother. Then when I found out that it was a lot different, I decided to give it a try. Actually ended up joining on my birthday! I was attracted to the high quality art and hoped it would give us something to do together since we are so far apart right now.
I like having people I am related to and all on here. We all help each other get things and can talk about it with our silly jokes and things and we all understand. My mom and I often get into squabbles over who has a better flight/deity, and my little brother and I get into pun battles.
The only not good thing I have found is when people throw their tantrums on the forums sometimes about suspected multi-accounting, it makes me a little nervous. Shared IPs happen, and we do send stuff around between us a lot. There is always that lingering fear, you know? Especially when buying gems...though it's mostly me that buys gems.

Artist Feature
Hello everyone! Today we have Rebbawskaced here with us. Rebbaw mostly sticks to digital art but sometimes dabbles in heaps of other mediums, such as photography, wire sculpture, cross stitching, and acrylic painting. As for style, she prefers a pixel art and vector art, and pretty much any art with geometrical shapes! She’s been involved with arts and crafts for about as long as she can remember, for digital art around 16 years, and now she’s in an art related career as a Multimedia developer for web-based training. After hours she does art as a hobby and gets a lot of inspiration by browsing through a wide variety on Tumblr.
As a professional, she has some tips for aspiring artists! Here’s what she has to say:
“Don't stop, and don't get discouraged. No one starts out loving what they do the first time they try any sort of art. The more you practice, the better you get, and the happier with your work you will become! Also, the best thing you can learn how to do is to take constructive criticism and how to use it to become better. It will sting, but ultimately you will become a better artist!”
Rebbaw was inspired to get into art by her fantastic art teachers, that made her enjoy her classes when she was usually bored. And then she thought she may as well keep going with what she enjoyed! Apart from doing art, Rebbaw is an aspiring author, and she’s currently working on an original zombie novel, and the occasional fanfiction.
When creating her art she mostly uses Photoshop, Illustrator, and Hexels. Creating adopts in these programs usually takes her around 1-8 hours for the bases and then it’s smooth sailing from there!
It was really interesting talking to you, Rebbaw! And what a great inspiration to aspiring artists aiming to go professional with their art. Go check out her art on her Tumblr, guys!!

Opinion Column
Last time, based on a reader suggestion, we asked you what gene was your favourite.
Now, before I give you the results, I must offer my apologies. It turns out I may have misunderstood the suggestion a little, interpreting it too literally to the point of making the quality of the poll suffer as a result. As a (different?) reader commented, the groups of genes muddle the results, making them unreliable. In retrospect, I do believe you have a point!
It looks like the somewhat swirly genes poison/toxin/smoke are the most popular with a quarter of the votes, followed by the stripey genes peregrine/okapi and tiger/stripes/thylacine, both with 18.8% of the votes. Other genes that got votes were cherub/seraph and crystal/facet, each with 12.5% of the votes, and lastly piebald/painted and iridescent/shimmer each got 6.3% of the votes. Other genes did not get any votes in our little poll.
The contour was a gene released without any prior announcement, which means discussion about it only started just now- while it’s already here!
Answer the next question here!

Other genes did not get any votes in our little poll.
