updates! i was hoping for Cyprum's fic to be out today to celebrate saturnalia but no dice. also the new enemies added to the delta are making my life a living hell SDJFSKH
i recorded 150 consecutive encounters in the delta and tallied whether they included at least 1 iridescent scaleback or none...and out of 150...there were only 19 ;A; its so hard to snipe these dudes bc they come so rarely now, im dying. good news though, im getting mad sandollars! so that's something
today's biolocke will feature crim rules! in addition to my pinkerton item, any items i am able to sell to crim will also trigger a biolocke fill.

[nextcol]A young denizen of the Shifting Expanse, put to work in the Sandswept Delta as a guard against the beast clans and their attempts to attack the nearby Lightning Farm location. His family is far, his days are monotonous, and his mind is unintentionally bombarded with the thoughts and feelings of the dragons around him. It's fine, that's fine, everything's...fine. He is definitely not miserable.

Meat
Canaries make great dragon snacks, but are more often kept as natural alarms. Their call is loud enough to act as a warning about plague gasses nearby.

Accent: magus solis
Gaoler Female Only
Accents are equippable items that can be worn like a coat of paint on top of the skin of your dragon. The look of the accent will not be passed onto offspring and may be unequipped at any time. (Designed by houseteeth.)

something i like about this project, despite it's repetitiveness and how looooong its taking, is that it's a lot like pulling in a gacha game? i play a lot of gacha idol mobile games and this challenge feels like i have an infinite amount of scout tickets. and every time i stumble upon an Iridescent Scaleback, i'm like "THIS IS IT, THIS IS THE ONE" and it never is...but one day...It Will Be

the basics of their family dynamic: Cyprum was abandoned somehow as an egg, hatched in the Shifting Expanse, and was found & adopted by Xanthi. Xanthi and Vesuvius got together pretty soon after and raised him together - Xanthi recognized that Cyprum was trans when got a little older and helped him find the language to describe his experiences! Cyprum calls Vesuvius "dad" or "father" and calls Xanthi his "other".

small update again! its 6am asdfghjkl
oh my god it's so late.. why are u awake.. why am i awake.. i think i will go to bed. hmm
looking forward to cyprum's fic :] reasons to grind sandswept myself are piling up... sand creepers, familiars for bestiary, familiars for hibden, coli scavenger hunt (the target item for sandswept is just any deity doll, so there's THREE mobs that would drop the needed item :-P)... perhaps i will join you in the delta later this week.... i'd really like to compare droprates for sand creepers in arena vs sandswept some time soon... leaf data is sorely needed
ok i go snnzz my brain keeps saying "creeper? Aww sand" so. That's maybe the clearest sign i'm gonna get, here
