A [b]mighty sacrifice[/b], buried deep and forgotten by history, has paid off. A new dragon breed rises. [center][permalink][b]Click here to read more about this update.[/b][/permalink][/center] [more] [center][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/banescale_separator.png[/img][/center] [center][img]http://www.flightrising.com/dropbox/logo_ancientbreeds_2kff320.png[/img][/center] We’re excited to announce that the next addition to our [b]ancient breeds[/b] system, the [b]Banescale[/b], have now been launched. Ancient Breeds are a way for the [i]Flight Rising[/i] team to [b]release more regular dragon content[/b], with a few [b]restrictions[/b] to make that possible. You can read about the ancient breed system in our [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/ann/2666061][b]Developer Update[/b][/url] on the subject. [b][size=4]Banescale[/size][/b] In a long-forgotten battle between the Flamecaller and Icewarden, the mighty [b]Banescale[/b] paid a devastating price for their aggressive siege on the Southern Icefield, which in the ancient era had been extending its enormous landmass to threaten the continent. Thought to be eradicated, they were long forgotten, until recent events resurrected their final clutch. [center][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/theproperpronunciationisbahneeskalay.png[/img][/center] The Banescale rejoin dragonkind through their young, hatched from the nurturing warmth of new lava flows created during the events of [i]Bounty of the Elements[/i]. You can read more about the revival of the Banescale in our short story, [b][i]Born in Fire and Flame[/i][/b], and gain some knowledge of their characteristics in the [b]Encyclopedia[/b].
