Where the reaches of the Blooming Grove come to an end lies the Forgotten Cave in
which many dragons who were previously unwanted elsewhere come together in order
to survive. Many of them have accepted their life as simply unfortunate, and some have
even come to terms with the hard to face fact that life is unfair. Almost.


Fewer still have decided that the passive approach to survival is obviously not working
and the only option left is to fight against the system that was so cruel as to toss them
aside in the first place. After all, a life of crime is still a life to be lived.

Set Up
You need your first disposable fodder child, naturally. But this is not just any disposal fodder child. They are the founder of your new squad of completely horrible criminals.

1. Buy yourself the cheapest adult dragon off the auction house. Appearance doesn’t matter when your only goal in life is to do crime. The dragons I buy for this challenge are going to stay in my lair for a fair bit of time (be it one day or ten), and I want them to look nice. I will still be buying dragons at fodder price, but I will scroll through until I find one with a decent gene/color combination.
2. Level that dragon to eight. They must be stronger than their recruits. Strength is valuable. Important. Vital to not being back-stabbed. Put a big obnoxious crown and/or robe on them for good measure. I will be dressing all of the dragons for this challenge with whatever apparel and skin/accent I have on hand. They must know their worth. They must know that they’re better than alllll the others.
3. If any dragon ever passes them in level, that dragon takes over as the new leader. Exalt the old leader. They must be banished in shame.
4. Recruit your first crime buddies. Grab four more of the cheapest adults off the auction house. Level each of them to six.

Daily* Tasks
*I will be adding to this challenge whenever I have a free moment I'm willing to spend on it, so it won't be daily, but I may do more than one day at once.

Phase 1 » » »

1. Buy yourself the two cheapest adult dragons off the Auction House. These are your potential recruits.
2. Drag them through your two-fodder venue of choice together until they hit level six.
3. Roll a six-sided die for each. If you get a six, congrats! After the first day of doing this challenge and having to level up and exalt 20 dragons, I've decided to modify this rule. I will be using a 4-sided dice for each. If I get a 4, congrats! That dragon has passed my test and has been hired into my band of criminals.
4. If a dragon fails, exalt it. It is not worthy of being among you.
5. Continue your recruitment efforts until you get a successful recruit (or two at once if you’re lucky)! You may now move on to the drama phase.


Phase 2 » » »

There is much drama to be had in a band of criminals like the one you are running. Each day is full of terrible terrible happenings.

Roll a ten-sided die. Since I'm tired of rolling too many Crimes Time! events, I am removing two of them. My next challenge is as follows:

1. There’s a Scandal (or romance) afoot. Pick two of your ready to breed dragons at random if you have any. Put them on a nest. The babies will join your crime organization when they hatch. Level them to five when they come of age. If the parents would be exalted while they’re on the nest, wait until their nest hatches and then exalt them. If nobody is ready to breed, grab a random hatchie off the AH. A secret forbidden child or sibling has been uncovered.
2. There’s Romance in the air. Pick two dragons at random. They are now in a relationship. If one gets exalted, so does the other. Their fates are bound together.
3. Hunting trip. Take any two of your dragons into a coli venue that is too low for them to gain experience. (Your choice.) Go until you get a familiar or chest drop.
4. Freeloader. Some random dragon has decided to hang at your place. Who is this guy??? Grab the cheapest adult off the AH. Leave them at level one.
5. Crimes time! Pick two dragons at random. They have to go on a quest now. Raise both of them a level. Roll a six-sided die for each. If it’s a one, exalt them as they were lost in the mission.
6. Kids can do crimes too. Grab the cheapest hatchie off the AH. Level it to five when it comes of age.
7. Backstabbing. Choose a dragon at random who is not the leader. Exalt them. Bye.
8. Test the Newbies. Roll a d10 for each of your lowest level dragons. If it’s higher than their level, exalt them. They were not good enough. Raise the remaining low level dragons by one level.
9. Major Heist!! This is it! Your time to shine. Roll a d12 for every dragon. If you get higher than their level, exalt. Raise all survivors by one level.
10. A coup! Exalt your leader. They have been dramatically betrayed by the others a la the ides of march. Determine a new leader from the remaining dragons. The highest level dragon will be it. If there is a tie, the oldest tied dragon shall be the leader. Level the tied dragon one level to make it better than its peers.

If you ever run out of dragons completely, you lose. Start over. Consider keeping a high-score chart to see which crime organization lasts the longest.

If you ever run into a very exciting dom raffle or battle, feel free to exalt/send as many as you want. Run out of space and need to cull the group? Yeet them. There is no mercy here in the Fodderlocke. None at all.

If for some ungodly reason a dragon ever gets to level 25, crown them the lord of all fodder. Give them stats and stones and pull them out to make them your new two fodder trainer. Or exalt them for being too strong. Your choice.

With his determined spirit that had steadily begun to consume him from the inside out, he had been sure he was destined for greatness. He would have been the one to change this tiny, filthy cave into something better, no matter the cost. His first step had been finding cheap gems to stick to his wings and forehead in an attempt to create a makeshift crown. This was exactly what would sway the others to trust him, to call him their rightful leader, as he was always meant to be. He had held himself in high regard compared to them, while also fighting for their survival. However, he would not have tolerated disobedience.

58889709_350.png
Phobos
Calculating Leader // Lawful Evil
Phobos knew for certain that he was not made for poverty. With his determined spirit that had steadily begun to consume him from the inside out, he had been sure he was destined for greatness. He would have been the one to change this tiny, filthy cave into something better, no matter the cost.

His first step had been finding cheap gems to stick to his wings and forehead in an attempt to create a makeshift crown. This was exactly what would sway the others to trust him, to call him their rightful leader, as he was always meant to be. He had held himself in high regard compared to them, while also fighting for their survival.

However, he would not have tolerated disobedience. The dragons who followed him were made to serve him without question, for he had held the key to their individual hopes and dreams. He would have paved the way to ongoing survival, but if he sensed even a toe out of line, he would have cut that life short. There was no compassion where he was concerned, only success and failure.

Rosalyn
Hopeless Romantic Leader // Neutral Good
Rosalyn had been just another civilian casualty where the Recruits of the Disgraced were concerned. Once having lived an idyllic life, she had not been overly fond of giving up her hope of a better world for the dragons now residing in the Forgotten Cave. She had been open when it came to her past, letting the dramatic tale of her cheating ex-husband out into the open where anyone could have judged her for her past decisions. While not the most intelligent, her natural charisma could enchant nearly anyone who crossed her path.

It had been as much a mystery to her as it had anyone else why Phobos had chosen her to succeed him. Under her regime, most of the dragons seemed to be content with her style of leadership. She had chosen to take a more passive approach to most situations that arose, in the hopes that it would create a peaceful environment for them to flourish in.

Wren
Silent Renegade Leader // Chaotic Good
Although Wren seemed to fall in line easily, he'd had his own set of motivations. He had been more than aware of the corrupt happenings taking place in the Forgotten Cave, and he would have done anything he could to help the innocent denizens who had taken refuge there. Just because the Recruits of the Disgraced furthered his ultimate path didn't mean he necessarily stood by them.

Cold, calculated, uncaring. At least, that's what Ash would have had you believe. When all he'd ever been taught was how to conceal his emotions, there wasn't a single dragon who could've make him crack under pressure. He was convinced that none of the recruits had figured him out. They continued to accept his claims on a surface level, as if nothing else mattered.

I don't really have a goal other than the fact that I just want to be creative and write lore that's unrelated to my clan's. Because of this, I don't expect it to be too deep but I do think it'll exercise my creative writing skills, and that's really what I'm here for!

Day One. | No Exceptions.
Only four subordinates to speak of? That wouldn't do. Phobos would need more of an army if he wanted to make any meaningful changes. The only glaring issue being that the possible recruits he had to choose from were puny. They were made weak by the hunger that led them to seek his ranks in the first place. It was absolutely unacceptable. Failure was not to be tolerated while he was in charge, and the failed recruits would be exalted unceremoniously.

The first two leaders dying on a simple crime mission only two days apart? It was unheard of. Unless they were just too incompetent to commit petty crimes. He had no doubt that this might apply to Rosalyn, but Phobos... He was another story altogether. If Wren were being quite honest, he would tell the rest of the group that he had no interest in leading them, but their enthusiasm spurred him on despite his hesitation. His task was simple after all; recruit more members. With older ones seemingly dying off everyday, it was a necessary precaution, and he supposed he quite agreed with Phobos's ideals from the start.

Day Three. | Obvious Uncertainty.
It would seem to Wren that this role of leadership was cursed. The first two leaders dying on a simple crime mission only two days apart? It was unheard of. Unless they were just too incompetent to commit petty crimes. He had no doubt that this might apply to Rosalyn, but Phobos... He was another story altogether.

If Wren were being quite honest, he would tell the rest of the group that he had no interest in leading them, but their enthusiasm spurred him on despite his hesitation. His task was simple after all; recruit more members. With older ones seemingly dying off everyday, it was a necessary precaution, and he supposed he quite agreed with Phobos's ideals from the start. At least Phobos had been passionate about what he wanted, unlike himself.

Successful recruit:
59087143.png » Morgana | Dubious Protector | Chaotic Neutral «
While Morgana definitely comes across as trustworthy when you first meet her, many dragons begin to wonder why she so adamantly insists on healing and safety in a world so filled with danger. Some speculate that there may be an ulterior motive at play behind her warm eyes. Morgana supposes the distrust comes from dragons who have been taught the hard way that kindness always comes at a cost. In reality, she is a peaceful dragon who wants nothing more than happiness for the denizens of the Forgotten Cave, or maybe that's just what she wants you to think.

Crimes Time!
Pick two dragons at random. They have to go on a quest now. Raise both of them a level. Roll a six-sided die for each. If it’s a one, exalt them as they were lost on the mission.
Here we go again. This time, I rolled Chamomile and Claudius, so there's no chance of my new leader dying...again.

Notes
Another of the first four bites the dust! I am a little sad about having to exalt Claudius, since he is a pretty dragon and I liked the idea of having a scholar in our band of criminals, but I'm so happy I got to develop Chamomile! She's was the one with the least amount of personality, so I'm glad I was able to give her a little more depth here!
