Flight Rising Discussion

so, okay, the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/2930364]plural of ferberus[/url] thread inspired this to an extent, including my own comment: [quote name="birdboots" date="2020-11-11 16:36:05" ] furberuses, furberi and ferberus (no change) sound fine but dare i propose: [b]a mischief[/b] a group of ferberus would be a mischief [/quote] (i figured i could call them a mischief because of the calico ferberus' description - "Triple the mischief!") but it got me thinking...

[quote][gamedb item=15298] - [b]agol[/b] [gamedb item=36494] - a [b]tangle[/b] [/quote] Yes and yes

A chorus of Tricolor Yapper (loud puppers, I had a corgi who looked like this and the description for this familiar fit him too)

A mischief of Spirit of Plague (in real life, a group of rats or mice is called a mischief)

A mistake of Spidered Seat (could apply to any mismatched and/or "nope"-inducing familiar)

@namira ok hands at you,, ill probably be putting those in at some point and mistake has been placed on the (already) one nope-inducing familiar i've found/remembered

@birdboots

Glad you liked my suggestion for nope-inducing familiars! By the way, I love this idea of yours. It has a lot of lore potential and I can imagine plenty of naturalist or hunter dragons going out to observe familiars in the wild and coming up with names for groups of familiars, like how people did in real life.
