[i]:: Meet the Dad ::[/i]
Hello! Just call me Werewolf or Dad! My nice friend told me about Flight Rising, and I’ve been tempted to join it until I heard about Banescales. They are just so awesome and they really inspired me to join the fun! I like video games and art, and all that jazz. Not too much else to talk about.
[i]:: Meet the Progens ::[/i]
[b]Banefather[/b] & [b]Blightmother[/b]

[i]:: The Challenge ::[/i]
So I’ve heard about several different challenges that other users tend to do, and being an avid gamer who really likes to play things on hard mode and just suffer as much as possible, I figured, why not Nuzlocke myself and make Flight Rising as tricky as possible!
[i]:: The Rainbow Challenge 3.0 The Sequel The Remix ::[/i]
I want to only breed Banescales, and by doing so, fill my lair up with only family of my progenitor dragons. Banefather and Blightmother will be my lovely progens for this excursion!
[i]:: The Win Condition ::[/i]
All Banescales.
One instance of any color.
No duplicate colors on any children.
No common or uncommon eyes.
Out of 177 possibly colors, that leaves me needing 59 total dragons to make the rainbow happen. I have...a lot of work ahead of me...

[list][*]I have officially decided on not selling any dragons from the project for now. Not changing hatchling names is absolutely crucial in order to keep progress organized, and to risk that possibility would be something I'm not comfortable with. This may be something I choose to change in the future, but for now, it will remain this way indefinitely.
[*]Donations of Untraited G1 Banescales, Treasure, and Gems are all accepted, if you should feel so inclined! (Donation Minimums Accepted: 10kT / 10 G) Not being picky, just only accepting things that are impactful to the project!

:: The FAQ ::
This section is just for me to leave possible questions I may anticipate people will ask, or be for me to answer questions that might come up along the road, just in case others need it for reference.
:: Pre-Answered Questions ::
Q: Did you pick Banefather's first two colors/gender for any particular reason?
A: No. The initial colors I chose in the end placed no bearing on the final goal other than I just liked them. The only deciding factor was to pick two colors that were NOT similar, and hope that Blightmother was the same. And Gender simply did not matter regardless.
Q: Did you pick Banescales for any particular reason?
A: Nope. I picked them only because they look really cool!
Q: Do you have any strategy for trying to get specific combinations?
A: Not necessarily. I know of strategies that I could use, but for now, the early game is simply to knock out very, very broad combinations to see if I can narrow down my necessities, so that later, I can fill in gaps with more specific breed pairs.
Q: Do you plan on selling any of the dragons?
A: Not right now. Perhaps later, when the lair begins to fill to the brim, to a point that exalting or selling are the only options left, but beyond that, I will try to keep as many of successes and failures as possible. It's purely a name bloodline thing. I don't want to risk it.
Q: But I want one!!!!
A: No.
Q: Why this? How? Do you hate yourself?
A: Because. Though willpower and lack of life. Immensely.

A very slow start to what is bound to be an even slower challenge. Wegged. [i]Wegged.[/i] [b][i]Wegged.[/i][/b]
Our first attempt is none other than the lovely Banefather and Blightmother!
[img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/581742/58174198.png[/img][emoji=rainbow star 2 size=1][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/581742/58174199.png[/img]
All I can really say at this point is, I not only expect, but demand this challenge gets harder as we go along. A wegg isn't exactly a good omen. :^)
Anticipating that as I go along, getting what I am looking for will get both easier and harder all at the same time. Planning breedings around colors shouldn't be the hardest part. Waiting for the right eyes, however? Yikes. Here is hoping this isn't the beginning of a wegg chain. Many thanks to my friend MidnightMonarch for helping set everything up with me and walking me through it all. And curse you even more for encouraging me. Reee!
And another thank you to Purrilicious for her upcoming donation! √-1 [emoji=familiar heart size=1]
