Fishes' Bio Challenge
Hello again! I'm still trying to get back into Flight Rising, and it's not so pressuring now that I've formerly ended my Fodderlocke. But... I still want to feel like I'm making progress on something.
I realized that editing dragon bios was something that I really loved... why not apply that to a Pinkerlocke formula? Turns out, someone already did!
With this in mind... I have lots of dragons in my Hibden that I appreciate, but I felt stuck with their stories and bios. So now I have an excuse to go digging in there and make them shine!
The Rules:
- I'll use a random number generator to determine the dragon who gets updated- 1/77 (i have 76 dragons, so the extra will be a Free Space)

Rules
The rules are tangentially related to the classic Pinkerlocke: each daily item pulled from Pinkerton's Plundered Pile dictates which action is done that day. The following key will be used for progress:
- Section not started
- Section in progress
- Section complete
- Section in progress
- Section complete
Food - Profile
This is the dragon's "fact sheet" - basic information about them. This can be prose or a sidebar, whatever works. The type of food determines the information added to the profile:- Three words or a short quote to describe dragon's personality
- Describe the dragon's role in the clan
- One strength, one weakness
- Favourite item(s)
If a dragon has no name, naming the dragon takes precedence.
Material or Trinket - Lore
This is a section of prose either telling the dragon's backstory or a short story about their daily lives. The rarity of the trinket item determines the minimum number of words that must be written:- 50 words
- 100 words
to - 250 words
Edit for 2022: Reducing the word count for lore to make it more manageable! It seems like Pinkerton only gives out 1-2 star items, but I'm keeping the other rarities for Crim Catch Up purposes.
Familiar - Art
Order or draw a piece of art for a dragon. This must be started on the day the familiar is picked up, but doesn't have to be finished. Art takes time!
Apparel - Outfit or Genes
Plan an outfit or gene plan for a dragon, or add a new gene or apparel piece to a dragon with an outfit or gene plan. Since most dragons have genes and outfits, this category isn't determined by the RNG.
Battle Item - BBCoding
Tidy up a dragon's bio using an existing bio template or by creating your own.
Crim Rules
(Taken from littletoes101's Biolocke - thank you for the idea!)Missed days can be made up for, or extra "days" can be added, to the Biolocke using items requested at Crim's Collection Cart, using the same rules for each item listed above. Trading an item with Crim allows you to skip this item unless you are making up for missed days.
The Library
The rest of this post will be housekeeping to help me make this job a bit easier. I'll keep a growing collection of code, links, and other stuff here.Template for dragon listings below:
