Flight Rising Discussion

Plague is a celebration of life and change, and takes place in a desert, just like Earth (my other part-time flight). Plus newer additions like aberrations transgresses on the concept of the self somewhat, which I personally do not value much (I'm a bit of a buddhist due to my upbringing).

I knew about the Deities long before i knew of FR from one of Undel's books and Plaguemother was always my favorite with Shadowbinder in close second
Ended up finally finding what "Flight rising" was after about 1 1/2 - 2 years of looking for it (everywhere BUT google smh) and fell in love with plague aesthetics, especially as a scavenger of bones off my own property myself :3

also icky, mutation rotting vibes go brrr

I was an edgy teen and then I never grew out of it 88V

But also, Plague is quite unique. At least, unique in the fact that you can join the horrible land of flesh and disease and not be a bad guy. I also always seem to have neverending lore ideas regarding this place, it really inspires my imagination. Same with others it seems, everyone interprets this flight a little different and it's cool to see.

Also, you know. Red and green and bones and weird pustules everywhere. It's just sick as hell.

i actually was thinking of starting with like, arcane flight i think? but then i saw soupmom, thought she looked cool, and became a germ

that's kinda it

Dominance and the aesthetic. It may not look like it considering half of my lair is frutiger aero/technozen themed but I am a huge fan of bones and would kill for more people to recognize plague as survival given some things I lived through at the age of 9.

The dominance scene and community is also pretty neat lol

1. lore bc seedscar location gave me so much to work off of!!!!
2. eyes are nice!! (not too fond of the primal but its okay)
3. dominance (though I don't participate much)

as a former soup creature, I liked how plaguebringer looked.

red is my favorite color and i have an interesting relationship with edgy/macabre lore. I hate horror movies, but wanted to get into because I felt like I was letting fear run my life and exploring the dark side of plague lore was one of the ways i was working through that

and then i found out i had an anxiety disorder which explained my reaction a lot better lol, but i still love plague. the vibes are great the lore is fun and i get to play silly mad scientist with the dragons i have

I joined in 2017 and started in Plague, moved a couple times but both times just felt myself missing my home flight. And there were several reasons for that.

• I love gross things and all kinds of horror.
• The lore was surprisingly nuanced, moreso than I expected from a png dragon game. It's not just the scary death element, it's about celebrating suvival and triumph over unbearable hardships-- and that really spoke to me on a personal level.
• I have a soft spot for the unloved or rejected parts of things, especially in the natural world. I love bugs, and not just the pretty ones, I love centipedes and scorpions and camel spiders. I feel like the dynamic in-lore is very much Plague being rejected by Nature for being the unpleasant or ugly parts of the natural world-- much like many real-life animals (most bugs) are hated on just for existing.
• Being able to join the faction that is seen as gross or misunderstood as evil isn't something you see a lot in games.
• Objectively, it has the most unique aesthetic and region on the map.

Also, if I were a dragon I feel like i'd be Plague because my immune system is unnaturally strong.

i didn't know much about the site when joining, so i kinda haphazardly read through the flight descriptions at registration and immediately vibed with plague

i was very edgy at the time so i enjoyed the battleworn dragons and the survival aspects of plague, it just feels like a logical place for dragons to live. it was a setting that inspired me to write lore moreso than i think other lair settings would do.

i wouldn't describe myself as edgy anymore but im a plague clan for life, plague just makes so much sense for my lore and i love the community. also red eyes just go with everything 88V
