Quests & Challenges

Phew! I was afraid I was going to miss out on today's badge because I was away from my computer for so much time, but it turns out I was doing exactly the right thing! It was a gorgeous day here, so I just had to get outside!

She doesn't intend to create weapons, rather, she sets out on her latest experiment, and the results are often so dangerous that they are classified as weapons. It doesn't stop her from trying though. [center][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/407998/40799716_350.png?mtime=WxF3HAACpI0.png[/img][/center]

Work was very long and exhausting today, so I don't have the energy to write. I took the virtual hike instead! :D I live in Canada but have never been to Alberta so I did the Moraine Lake one. Screenshot of the ending! [img]https://screenshotscdn.firefoxusercontent.com/images/04292331-eb40-40e1-be6d-a07e7024a6cc.png[/img]

Took a 2 hour hike at a regional park 30 minutes away today! It was so beautiful! Here's a photo from it. https://i.imgur.com/LuT06Vv.jpg

Friday's participation: My husband and I had a picnic, and visited the wildlife park today! It was absolutely lovely.

Belinda is our top coliseum warrior, and is responsible for training new warriors. The clan has other warriors as well as several guards, who patrol the outskirts of the territory to watch for enemies, or accompany merchants on their trade routes to keep them safe.

This outfit is strictly for the observation of cryptids. It come equipted with herbs to mask the wearer's scent, leaves for camouflage, and a little feathered friend who can fly up ahead to locate cryptids. This outfit is best used in forested areas. Friday Task It was very nice where I am, so I spent several hours over at my granddma's house pulling weeds from her garden. Later on in the evening I went for a rather long walk through the neighborhood (I'll admit it, I was playing Jurassic World Alive. Lost track of the time.)

Most of the dragons have been taught to use nothing but their own strength and in certain cases magic whenever it comes to fighting, especially Gladion. If anything he is the one who pushes for his fellow clan mates to use tooth and claw as their weapon rather than some sword because to him it feels like the latter would be taking the easy way out which is something he doesn’t believe in, especially as a leader.

All it's weapons and armour comes from the spoils of it's coliseum team or is traded for by the clan's merchant, Chalco. When those weapons and armour get damaged, though, Ambrose has a knack for fixing so they are almost as good as new: [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=38063033] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/380631/38063033_350.png[/img] [/url] The Hematite Hill Outpost itself is protected by a rotating watch of those with fighting skills, organised by the Guard Captain, Apollo: [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=13724353] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/137244/13724353_350.png[/img] [/url]

My clan actually has a group of mages and warriors that are called in if they are needed. The main group consist of 4 actual mages, 1 rune reader, 2 warriors, 1 head planner and a Medic. They do get most of their supplies from trading with other clans. They do have their own residence Blacksmiths but they cant make all the weapons for all of them. Here one of them.

If they want anything else they would have to go to someone else as this guy does not do it. Not all the fighter wear armor it all depends on their fight style if they wear it or not.
