I'm going to try and keep this little game of mine going for as long as possible. So if I achieve a pretty dragon, I'll start from scratch. [quote]1. Go to the Auction House (EDIT: or the [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drt/2103955]Founder and Mate Thread[/url]) and purchase [i]the ugliest dragon you can find.[/i] Preferably, the dragon will be of your least favorite breed/gender combination, have colors that make your eyes bleed, and a set of genes that make you wonder who let their pet monkey play this game. Basically, this dragon has to be one you'd grab literally ONLY to Exalt. The one restriction on selecting your founder is that [i]they must be triple-gened[/i]. Everything else is allowed. Ultimately, [b]this dragon will be your founder.[/b] 2. Find this dragon a mate. This time, there are no restrictions other than that it has to be breedable with your founder either immediately, once s/he ages up, or loses the breeding cooldown. (In other words, if your founder is male then his mate must be female, or vice versa.) Unlike with your founder, this dragon can be as beautiful as you like! Knock yourself out! [LIST] [*][b]NOTICE:[/b] You cannot use the Foresee Progeny tool in the Scrying Workshop as you look for a potential mate for your founder or their future heirs! Part of the challenge is going with your gut feeling. However, once you have purchased the mate and made your permanent decision for that generation, you may use the Foresee Progeny tool as much as you like. [*]Optional Rule: The mates you select for your founder and their heirs must also be triple-gened. [/LIST] 3. When they're ready, breed them together. If their nest has 2-5 eggs in it, then congratulations! The youngest will be your heir. If their nest has only one egg, then you may breed the founder and his or her mate together one more time, and the youngest from that batch will be your heir instead; however, this is up to you. [LIST] [*]Or, alternatively, you can use an RNG like random.org to select which hatchling will be the heir, or you can cherry pick. Just keep your method of selection consistent! I've seen Simmers do all of the above; the official "rule" is adapted from the original challenge, but as long as you're consistent, I see no harm in it. [/LIST] 4. Find a mate for your heir much like you did for your founder in #2. Repeat #3. 5. Repeat #4 as many generations as it takes to get a dragon you would [i]permanently keep.[/i] At that point, the challenge is over and you have won![/quote] I figured this challenge would be too easy though since there are not a lot of dragons I consider ugly. So to make it harder and even more entertaining, I'm going with the [b]double-ugly varient![/b] So both my dragons must be considered ugly! Fun eh? [b]NOTE:[/b] All ugly dragons that come from this will be exalted by me once they reach dragon age. Because [i]money.[/i] [b]Pinglist[/b] @/Karrikut @/FallenRibbons @/nienna33 @/Justdevon @/IncendiaOz @/Ggirl @/Ikilou @/thesoulpvnk @/Twowingsforever @/AlterMoon @/smeen [center][size=7][font=papyrus]Key Posts[/font][/size][/center] [center][size=5][font=papyrus]These links are clickable[/font][/size][/center] [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/2536103/1#post_35564388]Nest 1[/url]

[center][center][size=7][font=papyrus]Progenitors[/font][/size][/center] So meet the progenitors of this challenge. Boy are they an ugly mess.

Yeesh!) Colors: Disgusting (I despise Maize. Any dragon with Maize is immediately gone!) Breed: Nope (I just don't like Spirals very much) [center][size=5][font=papyrus]Nornan[/font][/size][/center] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=44782183] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/447822/44782183_350.png[/img] [/url] This boys colors is just... save his poor soul. He looks like a joke.[/center] ------ [center][img]http://flightrising.com/images/nests/1/3healthy_0dead.png[/img] Now I started the challenge I little early, but oh well. They gave me three eggs. I'm hopeful that maybe one of them won't be too awful looking.[/center]

@SilentHowleng I'd love pings on updates to this!

@Karrikut - somehow I didn't see your comment oof. But sure. The nest hatches at reset so I'll put you on a list! :D

@Karrikut - I'm so sorry for like three pings in a row. [center][size=7][font=papyrus]Nest #1[/font][/size] So the batch of eggs hatched. And I suppose they are kinda cute. Toxin's gone at least so I consider that a bonus. And the colors aren't too bad either. I'll be going with the firstborn of any hatches just to make this challenge a little more difficult so the other two will be trained and sent off to Earthboi when they grow up! [s]Unless someone wants to give them a permahome of course.[/s] But once the hatchling grows up, I'll go searching for a mate. Try and get rid of piebald if I can. Or peregrine.
