Here are links to my first two (not that it's really necessary to read them; this one will stand alone): [list] [*][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/2173091]From Ember Into Flame[/url] - [b]Completed![/b] Items were tracked from April 4 - August 31, 2017. [*][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/2651902]The Tale of Clan Ferngrove[/url] - On indefinite hiatus. Items were tracked from March 21 - September 2, 2019. [/list] This time, I will be tracking items from today, June 20, 2020, through September 7, 2020, which is exactly 80 days - appropriately enough for the tale of a pirate who has sailed around the world, and who is now retiring to return to her roots in the Sunbeam Ruins. [color=#0086CE][b]Rules[/b][/color] I will be following the [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/1904162]standard rules,[/url] with the following two modifications (borrowed and adapted from the amazing Sabariel's [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/2801811]Brightest Star, Darkest Night[/url]): [list] [*]As the main protagonist, Storm is exempt from the rule that dragons who faint in the coliseum are dead and must be exalted. However, if she [i]does[/i] faint in the coliseum, she must take a hiatus from all Nuzlocke activities for the next 15 days. [*]Any hatchling born with Primal eyes is exempt from the coinflip and is guaranteed to survive to adulthood. After that, regular Nuzlocke rules apply. [/list] [color=#0086CE][b]Credits[/b][/color] [list] [*]This story would not exist without the lore snippet that @Lunarpunch originally created for Storm, which I have expanded upon to create my first few chapters. (Yes, I wrote them in advance - the last two threads taught me that lesson.) If you're reading this, thank you. You inspired me to create something. [*]The aforementioned Sabariel and Petall both inspire me to be a better Pinkerlocke-er. [/list]

However, time is beginning to catch up to her, and she has decided to retire to a calmer profession in the lands of Light, where she was hatched. [/center] [/columns]

None yet.

Clicking on the [b][color=purple]flowers[/color][/b] takes you to one of the posts in this thread in which a death (or other departure from the clan) takes place. Clicking on the [b][color=brown]tablet[/color][/b] takes you to that dragon's exalt page. ------------- [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/2876544/8#post_45759362][img]http://flightrising.com/images/cms/food/830.png[/img][/url] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/62981813][img]http://flightrising.com/images/cms/trinket/188.png[/img][/url]

As in my previous two threads, I will be keeping track of Pinkerton's item drops and my progress through the challenge via Google Sheets. (Warning: Here Be Spoilers!)

Storm leveled up from 1 to 3, but she did get defeated once, by a Canothus Brawler. I plan to write this into the story, and see how the next few days go in terms of items. I may have to bank some of the items I get in the next 15 days, if they aren't materials or trinkets. (I've already banked my item from Day 1, because it was an apparel item.) [b]Loot[/b] [item=false leaf] x3 [item=pale pink rose] x3 [item=dwarf fawn] x2 [item=silverfish] x2 [item=blue rose] x2 [item=pygmy wrasse] x2 [item=silverfish spectre] x2 [item=sticky pollen] x1 [item=fine filament] x1 [item=mustache moth] x1 [item=reverse silkworm moth] x1 [item=pollen] x1 [item=display plumes] x1 [item=rosy similis] x1 [item=shell-dwelling cichlid] x1 [item=fragile antler] x1 [item=hardy antler] x1 [item=dark-tufted featherduster] x1 [item=cheerful bird toy] x1 [item=chipskink tail] x1 [item=serrated beak] x1 [item=jagged beak] x1 [item=emerald brooch] x1 [item=ruby brooch] x1 @Dakala @Petall @Sabariel @Lunarpunch - This is the first content post of my new Pinkerlocke thread! Please post here or PM me to let me know if you [b]don't[/b] want any more pings for this thread. I won't be offended. :)

No problem bringing me along for the story! I read all of the last one, even if I didn't often comment on it. It's how I am. If I find myself trying to predict the future of the story, I comment more. If, however, the story is good, but it's clear that there's already a plan set in stone, I just enjoy reading the story.

So, thank you for keeping me on the ping-list, because now I have another story to read when I find a bit of downtime in my day.

It may not look like much, but she sees its potential. Pinglist: @Dakala @Petall @Sabariel @Lunarpunch Dakala - That's great! I'm so glad you're interested in reading my stories. :-)

Yay! No need to bank this item for later. @Dakala @Petall @Sabariel @Lunarpunch - Got another Apparel item for today (6/24), so it's also banked until after I get far enough into the story for it to be relevant. (Seriously, 5 days and not a single material so far. Go figure.)
