Flight Rising Discussion

[b]When did you join FR?:[/b] So I have a pretty complicated history with FR due to the fact that I would create new accounts when I wanted to start over not knowing it was against the rules (that's why you read TOS people!). The issue has been resolved and this is my newest (and permanent) account that I was allowed to create. That being said; the first time I joined was in 2021 I believe! [b]What was your first flight?:[/b] I think it was... Nature. I dunno I like silly little plants but plague is better (I'm moving there soon!). On this account I was initially in fire, but it didn't really work out </3. [b]Fav Modern Breed:[/b] Bogsneaks for sure. They're so chubby and cute I just wanna hug 'em! Also, they're very crocodile/komodo dragon like and I really like that about them. I don't own any yet but I'm leveling up Baldwin so I can hatch my first! [b]Fav Ancient Breed:[/b] Aberrations. Not as just my favorite ancient but as my favorite breed period. They're so dang cool and literally look good with any combination of colors and genes, it baffles me. I wish the devs let ancient cook more because I know abbys were delayed for a time and they turned out AMAZING. [b]Least Fav Breed:[/b] I love all of them, I really do, but I think it's pearl catchers. I don't know what it is about them but they just seem so... plain? I don't know! [b]Fav Gene:[/b] [s]Why do you do this to me[/s] I love them all, but if I really had to choose, it would be flaunt and flair. They're beautiful, multicolored, sparkly, and cheap! [b]Least Fav Gene:[/b] I believe that any gene can look good if you just find the right combination; however, I still haven't found I dragon I liked that has Jupiter and Saturn after nearly 3 years. So that's at the bottom of my list. [b]Who is your favorite drag in your lair?:[/b] A lame pick, but it's got to be my custom progenitor, ManuAhi: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/92687917][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/926880/92687917_350.png[/img][/url] His story and his look is pretty incomplete right now, but I'm super excited about my plans involving him! No spoilers ;) [b]Who has been in your lair the longest?:[/b] Technically speaking, my progenitors, but removing them from the equation, it's LuaPele: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/91686909][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/916870/91686909_350.png[/img][/url] First dragon I ever bought off the auction house so he's not going anywhere! [b]Newest drag to your lair?:[/b] Wauzors, who gonna be the mate of one of my other dragons, [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/80047677]Taka[/url]: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/95000250][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/950003/95000250_350.png[/img][/url] [b]Fav apparel?:[/b] [Item=ham-ham] In memory of my pet hamster. Also, I love that the item name isn't just "hamster" but "ham-ham". It's so cute! [b]Fav familiar?:[/b] [Item=ultimate buttersnake] Cha Cha Cha. [b]What item do you collect/hoard?:[/b] Nothing atm, but I would like to collect valuable and shiny items such as [gamedb item=246]like a real dragon would! [b]What item is on the top of your wishlist?:[/b] I don't have a wishlist, but any genes to help my currently growing project pile would be awesome T-T [b]Most treasure/gems you've ever spent?:[/b] Uhhhh, I don't really remember, maybe it was spent geneing up ManuAhi? I dunno. [b]Your unpopular FR opinion:[/b] I kinda still wish dragons had some kind of conflict with the beastclans. Not the one it was retconned for, but something different. I think it woulda been interesting instead of them being all buddy-buddy now, but I'm not totally against the change.

[b]When did you join FR?[/b] Just over 7 years ago on April 14th, 2017! [b]What was your first flight?[/b] I haven't moved from Wind :) [b]Fav Modern Breed:[/b] Skydancers; I have quite a few! [b]Fav Ancient Breed:[/b] Auraboas; I have 2 that I love dearly [b]Least Fav Breed:[/b] Bogsneaks; the only exception to my dislike is Pooka because he's a cute little slippery sneak [b]Fav Gene:[/b] Koi! I just love the way it looks [b]Least Fav Gene:[/b] I have a couple that I don't really like. I'll say Orb, because it makes me uncomfortable [b]Who is your favorite drag in your lair?[/b] My current favourite is Damika because I just finished her :D [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/94424194][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/944242/94424194_350.png[/img][/url] [b]Who has been in your lair the longest?[/b] I'm just going to ignore my progenitors and forget that my hibden exists for a moment... so that would be Pwyll! [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/33671415][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/336715/33671415_350.png[/img][/url] [b]Newest drag to your lair?[/b] My current favourite, Damika! [b]Fav apparel?[/b] Probably the starsilks. They're so pretty, and I especially love the earrings. Oh, I also really like the little animals too! [b]Fav familiar?[/b] Probably [item= Locomoting Lilypad] [b]What item do you collect/hoard?[/b] I don't think I collect any item in particular, but I love collecting items with funny tooltips [b]What item is on the top of your wishlist?[/b] Probably either [item= scene: shoreline serenity] or [item= vista: shoreline serenity] [b]Most treasure/gems you've ever spent?[/b] Not too sure of the final figure yet, but I think this guy is my biggest wallet eater yet [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/87907755][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/879078/87907755_350.png[/img][/url] [b]Your unpopular FR opinion:[/b] I don't know if I have any unpopular opinions, so I'll just say that I don't particularly like the Plague and Shadow primal eye types.

When did you join FR?: September 2016 What was your first flight?: Shadow (and I'm still in it) Fav Modern Breed: Skydancers, Imperials Fav Ancient Breed: Gaoler, and Aethers if they got a proper gene expansion.

Who has been in your lair the longest?: Lucien, I think? [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/27348475][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/273485/27348475_350.png[/img][/url] Newest drag to your lair?: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/84172318][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/841724/84172318_350.png[/img][/url] Because I have a G1 project hoarding problem. Fav apparel?: The cats! The NotN Conjurer's set, but really anything that I can use to make a nice gothy or dark, spooky outfit. Fav familiar?: The cat ones, the spooky ones, and the ones that give me goth vibes. Somber Spirit is probably my #1 though, as it's pretty much all 3 (that skull looks quite feline!) [item=Somber Spirit] and [item=Ferberus]! What item do you collect/hoard?: Oh gosh, just look at my avatar dragon's bio to get an idea: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/66522726][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/665228/66522726_350.png[/img][/url] What item is on the top of your wishlist?: All of the gene/breed change/eye type items that I need for my endless and ever-growing list of projects. Most treasure/gems you've ever spent?: I have no idea tbh, that's something I'd have to calculate (and I am both too lazy and ADHD to) Your unpopular FR opinion: I have many unpopular FR opinions: Wildclaws are overrated. Most dragons look best without lots of apparel or accents that cover a lot, and geneing dragons that you're going to drown in apparel and accents/skins defeats the purpose of geneing them. Eyes that are overly matchy aren't that appealing and are overrated (it usually almost looks like someone forgot to add in the eye color layer), I prefer them to match an accent color, or match a tert that doesn't match the rest of the dragon. Doubles, triples, and overly matchy dragons are overrated, and XYZs are underrated and usually more fun and visually interesting. Stained and Soap are overrated, rarely they can make for fun effects and fun or better colors, but most of the time it's used in lieu of creating a more fun pop of color. Stained is just a cheap tactic to make weak terts stronger! (/being silly with a SU reference, please don't [emoji=wildclaw angry size=1] @ me lol)
