Many things happen on FR that not everyone is happy about but there are other threads for that. If you and another user have a disagreement, please contact them privately rather than taking it up in this thread. ¤ All Flights are welcome here! Festivals are a time for everyone to come together, after all. Please show respect to all players from every Flight. ¤ We understand that a lot of players enjoy being "in character" for their Flight. Ice dragons are cold, wind dragons get all up in your personal space, and arcane dragons just like to stick their noses into everything ;) Writing IC can be a lot of fun but it can also cause hurt feelings if it's taken the wrong way. Please make it very clear if you are being playfully IC so your language is not misconstrued. ¤ We do reserve the right to add new rules here as necessary.

We have been planning this together for quite awhile now, and we've had contributions from dozens of wonderful, active Flight members. While we certainly can't claim to represent the entire Flight (and hey, who can?) we hope we can bring some of that special spark that makes us love Lightning to everyone during our Festival season. Lightning Flight is made up of all sorts of eclectic personalities, but in general you'll find us to be creative, open, and very well organized. We've happily been toiling away on our own Flight lore, so please feel more than free to ask us questions here and share your own elemental fun as well. We're excited to get to know you all and make some new friends before the week is over and we have to GET BACK TO WORK!
